Marie Olga was very warm and welcoming, helpful with suggestions of restaurants and things to do. We loved the closeness to transport, shops, restaurants and historical sights. Our room was clean and very spacious.DanielOctober 2015
We were made to feel very welcome by Maria who was very accomodating. The appartment is in a very convinient location right in the heart of the Old City. The appartment was as described although being on the 4th floor with no lift was a bit tiring at the end of the day. Our room was open and airy but had a very low fouton type bed which was a bit hard for our liking. Overall a good place to stay on a budget.AndrewMay 2015
Maria was very sweet and helpful. She came to Barcelona a couple hours earlier to accommodate our request for an earlier check in. The apartment is beautiful and matched the listing.JordanMay 2016
Had an amazing time there! The apartment is in a perfect location and Maria is pleasant and really helpful! I'd stay there again!!Mezhgan September 2015
Everything was perfect, and Olga an adorable host!! Thank you for everything, we felt really good at your place!!JanainaApril 2015
Maria's place is excellent in a central location. We enjoyed staying in her place. Very clean and hospitable. She was available for suggestions and answers . She made her place home away from home for us. Thank you Maria...zisanNovember 2015
Olga is a nice person that helps you however she can. The flat is in a small street with old buildings, beside a lively street full of restaurants, food's and clothing shops. The bedroom I stayed with my friends it was like in the pictures, but the description doesn't say that there is second bedroom. I was really surprised, so beware, you MIGHT share the apartment with other people. The beds were a bit too soft but comfortable. It is close by 15 minutes walk to the Barcelona center street, Las Ramblas. Metro Yellow-line's stop Jaume I is the closest by walk, Barceloneta is the second's, also it is really close to the sea beach in a 10 minutes' walk. Toward the sea, there are many food markets and restaurants which offer same dishes and not so good. But also many places for clubbing, as Pacha, Ophium, Shoko, etc. Taxis fare are pretty fair, not too high.CindySeptember 2014
My Girlfriend and I had an amazing stay in Maria's apartment. She's was so nice and accommodating. The apartment is located in a great area of Barcelona. If anyone is a photographer or has an interest in photography, Maria is a photographer and has a nice collection of images put up all over the apartment. The only downside was the stairs that previous people have mentioned but it really wasn't that bad. Would recommend to anyone.JasonSeptember 2015

In the flat, everything is equipped. Very clean, modern, cozy. Jose and Patricia, they prepared everything perfectly and contact with them was also very easy. Jose informed everything very clearly and kinldy when we met in the appartment at first time. And they gave us very nice house wine and cookies. 4 Adults and 2 child stayed this appartment, everybody were content with staying here. We are highly recommanding this appartment.YaeyoungJanuary 2016
The apartment was beautiful, spotlessly clean and well equipped. Jose met us on our arrival and made us feel very welcome. The location of the apartment was perfect, close to the centre, good metro links and easy enough to get a taxi outside the door.JudyMay 2016

David was a fantastic host. He was away during our stay but he made sure everything was in place. Her partner Monte was there to meet us and she was amazing. David's place was as described.SheryllJune 2016
David is a tremendous host, he keeps extremely good communication with you, has a lovely clean house but most all has a wonderful character. I enjoyed my stay with him. Strongly recommend David.AndileJune 2016
This was a great stay in a great location and the host was very hospitable.TrevorMarch 2016
David was so nice with my girlfriend and I, he was always available when we had questions to ask about the appartment. We were amazed by his clean house and it's well placed. The last day, we had a good talk with him around a glass of wine.ScottApril 2016
David is very kind and friendly and a very good host. The apartment is how it is described and he invited us to a glass of wine on our first evening. We had a very nice time and I just can recommend him to everyone.HongApril 2016
David was a lovely host! The place was really clean and warm. Very spacious and located close by the train station. The balcony was really nice and the kitchen was well equipped. David was very friendly and helpful during our stay and recommended a lot of places to eat and visit. He also stayed with his girlfriend both the nights so we could have some privacy.JayeshMay 2016
David was a great host! the comunication worked well and everything was as described. I enjoyed having a glass of wine with David and chatting a bit. I felt very welcomed and at home. It couldn't be better. I wills definitely recommend it to others.MalgorzataMarch 2016
We felt more than welcome at David's place. The information was accurate. Great location. Very close to Sants train station. David was a wonderful host, he was excellent at communicating with us. They offered a continental breakfast every morning (tostadas, jugo, café). We were even invited to have dinner with them our last night. He was extremly flexible with, so we were able to drop our luggage off before the check in time. Tapas and sangría were simply wonderful. Great conversation. I highly recommend David's place.

Amazing place :) lovely terrace, cute apartment, easy communication with owner and cozy area. Would totally recommend the place :) thanks for a great time.SineJanuary 2015
Very nice flat, functional, with lovely terrasse : it corresponds to the description. Gracia is a living neighbourhood : many cafe & restaurants. 5 min from metro station Diagonal, very close to Pedredra. Very good welcome from the tenant (2 beers in the fridge for instance). Be carrrefull : 4th floor without lift. Otherwise, we had a lovely weekend with my wife. And this accomodation was a main contributor.BertrandJuly 2015
Federico was very helpful, punctual and he responded to any message immediately.(he speaks english very well) The apartment was nice and cozy, but the terrace could need some decoration. The location is great, close to bars, supermarkets, restaurants, metro/bus. You can go by foot to many attractions. The cleaning was good.(not great) I would definitely recommend this apartment!!!AndreiOctober 2014
Apartment is in a great location in a cool neighbourhood. Few local bars selling craft beer. Nice cafe for breakfast a few doors down. Federico was a great host and really helpful. Apartment is lovely and nice views from the terrace.RebeccaJuly 2015
Such a good lovely place to stay in the heart of Barcelona. Very close to the Metro stop Diagonal and with many bars and facilities all around. The flat is fully furnished with all you can need to cook and the hosts are really helpful to support you in everything you ask. Highly recommendedLucaSeptember 2014
The appartment was nice & clean, the host very friendly (but no english speaking). The metro, shops and bars are close- all in all a cool place! The only negative thing was the rooftop terrace, we had to leave around 9 PM (we thought that this is a little early comparing to dinner time in barcelona).Melanie DominiqueSeptember 2014

Kieran was a helpful and kind host. He helped me find some good tapas restaurant during the Easter holiday, which was delicious! His place was situated near the L5 blue line which was very helpful in getting around and his neighborhood was nice and quite. Overall, I only have good thoughts about my stay there!RubenMarch 2016

Montse made us feel very comfortable, she is very welcoming and nice. She helped with good descriptions of getting around Barcelona too. Description of facility was accurate. Even though the air conditioner was not working as at when we arrived, and repairers were closed for holidays, she was quick to offer us a mobile AC. The environment was serene and easy to access the city center.ToheebJune 2015
My husband and I stayed in Montse's place for a week. It is an absolutely lovely apartment and we ate dinner almost every night on the balcony which was quite large and very peaceful! The neighborhood is very nice- though quiet- and it only takes a few minutes to walk to the metro and then a 20 minute ride to central Barcelona. We had a wonderful time and would definitely recommend anyone stay there!LakshmiMay 2015
This was a relaxing and peaceful place to stay and just as in the pictures. The living room and the kitchen let in lots of light and the highlight for me is the terrasse. 30 seconds walk away there is a (mostly) pedestrian highstreet with various bakeries and supermarkets. The neighbourhood feels more relaxed than central Barcelona, but there are still places to eat and even a bar with live jazz just on the corner. The only unusual thing: the entrance to the apartment (the living room) doesn't have a door, but the bedroom, kitchen and bathroom are behind a locked sliding door. As there seems to be no-one else in the building except for Montse and Hamid, this wasn't a problem. They were respectful of my privacy. They were also flexible about arrival and departure times. Highly recommended. I would stay here again!MichaelNovember 2013
The reservation was canceled 5 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.Kim
These hosts are very friendly, no problems to report. The place is the same as that presented in the photos. The apartment is well located, close to the shops but at the same time calm. Thank you very much for this trip I will return surely.romanJanuary 2014
The place is really nice. Spacious bedroom. Kitchen is very clean and connected with a balcony. Montes is helpful and friendly, she recommended us to go to some good restaurant. Everything is nice. I will choose Montes place when I be in Barcelona next time!.Yan CallaMay 2015
We arrived at 1am and got a warm welcome, the house is big with a terrase where we had breakfast every morining. And the air condiion was wonderful...the must for an august trip to Barcelona.gongAugust 2013
Lovely space on the top floor. Montise was a perfect host and her English is very good. One of our favorite airbnb stays! We definately recommend a stay here and a nice bonus was the private parking garage. I wouldn't advise driving a car to her apartment unless experienced with European one way streets!!HeidiMay 2014

We were so lucky to found this nice apartment for our Barcelona trip. Anton is a very nice and good host. Thank you so much for all of the travel information. It's really helpful. His place is clean, large and close to the subway. Just 3 mins by walk. Good location, very convenient to go to the Barcelona hot spot. It was a very nice trip. Merci beaucoup Anton ! Hope to see you again.AdrienDecember 2015
Anton was a great host, super helpful, responsive, knowledgeable, and eager to offer tips for things to see and places to eat. We arrived amidst a heatwave, but he had just purchased a fan to ensure our comfort. The bed was super comfortable, and even though it was part of a shared apartment, the room felt nicely private. We were in town to see a performance in the Montjuic Park, so the location was prima for our needs - an authentic neighborhood with everything we needed within walking distance (including a local parking garage priced at a premium, but such is to be expected in Barcelona!).MarisaJuly 2015
Anton was a great host. He had plenty of suggestions for things to do and places to eat in the city. I liked that it was in a quieter, more residential neighborhood yet with easy access to the metro, cafes, and shops. It is also very close to the Park Montjuic, so if you like running it's a great place to go for a jog!JessicaJuly 2015
Anton was a very nice guy, very helpful! The flat is in a great location. The flat is clean and fine. unfortunately just one night. 2 bed room whit balcony.Donato August 2015
Anton was a fabulous host and the room was perfect! Not only did I have all of the amenities that I needed, but Anton took the time to point out and explain key parts of the city to be sure I was informed of way was around me and was able to enjoy my time in Barcelona. Highly recommend!KathleenJune 2016
Anton offered us a super friendly welcome, and was very helpful with tips on where to eat and what to do in Barcelona during our short stay. The room was clean and cozy, just like on the pictures! Glad we stayed with him and decided for his accommodation according to previous reviews. Really nice host and good location if you're willing to walk a few kilometers to the city centre. Very lively neighbourhood, can be a problem for those who sleep light. :) Also, really good explanation on how to get to the apartment from the airport.Marija KataJuly 2015
Anton is a very very great person, thoughtful, considerable, gentle and always willing to help. He helped us to keep our bags even after we've checked out. The place is great. It is clean and quiet with all settle of equipments. The location is very good and it is near the metro station. A quite impressive experience. Highly recommend. Definitely will come back.BonnieOctober 2015

Barbara made me feel very welcome as did her lovely mum Dulci. The apartement is very central and easy to find and inside everything is organised really well too. I love Barcelona though it's crazy and chaotic!JaneFebruary 2016
I was greeted by Barbara and her sister Patricia with hugs and kisses and immediately felt part of the family. I met their mother who was charming and nobody minded my coming and going however late or early. I have already recommended this home to stay in to friends. I loved their home and really enjoyed being part of the local scene. I would love to go back as there is so much to do in the area and Barbara gave really good advice about flamenco and music to go to but we ran out of time.PatriciaOctober 2015
Patricia's apartment is a great location within the city and an overall charming place to stay. I couldn't have imagined spending my nights anywhere else in Barcelona.PaulFebruary 2015
Barbara and her mother are marvellous hosts - friendly, helpful, and very considerate - everything you could ask for in hosts. The location of the site is fantastic - right in the Barri Gothic, within easy walking distance of most attractions, as well as the Placa Catalunya where you can catch tourist buses to lots of places. Would stay here again - no question.LeslieSeptember 2015

It's really good location of the apartment. Andres is a kind person and told us so much things about Barcelona in the first day. We met many interesting people in his house. And also, his dog is always cute and friendly to us. We love this house and we spent a real unforgettable time in Barcelona.TingMay 2016
Absolutely loved the room, in the perfect location to walk to everything. And Andres was a great host and took the time to show us hoe to get around Barcelona a little. We had everything we could ask for and in the most adorable apartment.VeraApril 2016
My and my boyfriend stayed at Andres home for six nights. I have to say that everything was perfect. The spot couldn't have been better, Right in the middle of everything. The house it looks like the photo,clean and comfy. Great Wi-Fi signal and foul of hot water. Andre was very nice,polite and he was there when we arrive. What ever we needed he was there to help us. If I ever go back to Barcelona this place will be my number one. Thank you Andres for you hospitality.TzortzinaMay 2016
Beautiful apartment, great location, everyone there was super friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.SheaAugust 2015
Andrés is a nice and friendly host and although we didn't spend too much time with him, we felt really at home at his apartment. The flat had a really nice atmosphere with interesting decorations and details. It wasn't super new or shiny but felt homely and had a very ... barcelonian feel to it. :) High rooms, the floor tiles and all that, you know. The only minus was the noise from the street on the first night but I got used to it pretty soon - one might wanna bring earplugs but I didn't need them. The location just couldn't be better, just a couple of meters off Rambla and right next to Pl Catalunya, but still on a relatively quiet street. Excellent. The dog is adorable!TuulaOctober 2014
We had a great time in Barcelona! Mainly because Andrés' place was so amazing. We had enough space, time and privacy (if we wanted so). It was clean enough for us, the room was perfect but the best were the balconies where we ate, drank and just chilled. Every morning we had a warm shower, there are two WC's and you can put your drinks into the fridge so we had nothing to complain about. Andrés and his friends/housemates were very kind and helpful whenever we had questions about the city, the people or just how the oven is working. Indio (the dog) is probably one of the coolest dogs i've ever seen. He is very chilled but wants also just play with you from time to time. In conclusion I can say that we mainly had a great time in Barcelona because of this cool apartment with a very comfortable atmosphere. The location was just perfect to wander around the city and explore. Everything was just awesome! ¡Gracias Andrés!OgulcanOctober 2014
That was my first time using airbnb and I have to admit that me and my friend were lucky. First of all because of finding appartment located very in the center of the city and secondly - to meet such nice people as Andres and Flora! They were always eager to help, answer the questions, helping us to find good solutions to travel etc. I just feel the lack of knowing them more closely, spend more time in the living room, but all because of having busy schedule in Barcelona..AleksandraMay 2015
Andrés' apartment was very centrally located and easy to navigate around the city with public transportation. He was very accommodating and the apartment although old was clean and tidy. The only downside was that our room was a little loud but we slept just fine with earplugs. I would jump at the chance to stay here again as it was a very beautiful room and a much needed clean respite from a long trip.MelanieMay 2014

Sanario's flat was the perfect base from which to explore Barcelona. We stayed for over a week finding the place very clean, well located, excellently equipped and ideal for our needs. The area around the flat is really lovely with plenty of interesting shops, bars and restaurants. The metro is very close and useful for getting to further flung corners of the city. Sanario herself was very helpful and attentive, checking to ensure we had everything we needed throughout our stay, from fresh towels to local tips and advice. We would definitely stay again!WilliamApril 2015
We had a wonderful experience staying here! Our flight got in late night, but Sanario was in full communication and gave us great directions and met us at the flat. The apartment was comfortable, had everything we would need, clean, cozy, and the best part, awesome location! In a very cute, safe, vibrant area... Walking distance to shops, bars and restaurants. Literally right outside the flat! Sanario even stayed in touched with me and gave me a list of recommended restaurants . We tried , Salamanca II restaurant on the beach for Paella, at her recommendation, and wow, it was amazing! Definitely would stay here again. Only issue was that the TV only worked on one channel, the horoscopes! But not a big deal, since we were outside mostly anyways.NadiaApril 2016
Sanario was a great host! This was our first airbnb experience and it was better than expected :). The flat is in an amazing location - very convenient for sightseeing and amazing restaurants. My sister and I had a great stay, in a clean flat. The kitchen was well fitted with the necessary pans and dishes to make breakfast every day and other meals. Strongly recommend this flat.ElisabethApril 2015
The apartment was just what we needed, in the plain center of the city, clean and tidy and ideally equipped. Sanario was a host angel - she stayed in contact all along -before and after- providing us with maps, directions and great tips! The street was a little noisy but that was part of Barcelona charm for us. We will come again and recommend! Thank you again Sanario - this was a wonderful experience. :-)EvelyseDecember 2015

We had a lovely time at Maria's appartment who gave us a warm welcome and guide on our first night. The appartment is a 2 minute to the metro which takes you all over the city. There was a bakery just beside a school on the Main Street that was amazing!!! The appartment is small and only recommended for two people, it was very cosy and comfortable. We had issues with the Internet on the first two days however eventually Maria's husband fixed the issue something was wrong with the key. We also were surprised there was no toilet roll silly but still a requirement on your first night. Overall we had a wonderful time in Barcelona and the appartment was filled with lots of utensils to help us cook which was fantastic. There were also extra blankets and plenty of towels which was a bonus. Thank you so much Maria we hope to one day return xxNiamh January 2016
Beautifully located apartment near Placa Sants with metro, buses and even regional travel nearby. Beautiful apartment for 2 people. As noted by some, lift is tiny but needed and works well. Thank you Maria for a wonderful Barcelona experience.MatthewFebruary 2016
Maria was great and waited for us to get to the apartment despite the delays due to the Barcelona Metro strike. The location is only a couple minute's walk from the very central metro station nearby and is easy to get to from the airport. The accommodations were a great value and there is an elevator. That being said, the elevator is the smallest I've ever seen and required my girlfriend and I put our bags in and press the button, then meet our bags at the top floor. It is approximately 1.5 feet deep, seriously. Still, it's better than carrying bags up the steps. The location is quiet and we had a great time staying there.PatrickJune 2016
Our stay in Maria's apartment was very nice. The apartment was clean and nicely decorated. The best thing about it was the location, it had a nice communal feel. Whilst close to the centre it also felt a little separated from the touristy and busy parts of Barcelona. I would definitely recommend staying here.EveJuly 2015
The apartment was great; large, good kitchen, well working appliances. Internet connection and the TV worked well. The neighborhood was very peaceful but at the same time very close to a well connected metro station. The neighborhood has a good variety of services, such as stores, restaurants and pubs. Close by is also the railway station in case you want to visit the surrounding towns (like Girona). Be prepared that the host speaks only Spanish.JenniNovember 2015
Maria Jose was very welcoming and accommodating, they patiently waited for us to arrive as our flight arrived late in the evening. The apartment was as described and they provided us with all the information we needed regarding the area as well as recommending some places to eat. IT was clean and well situated, overall a great place.DavidDecember 2015

Our stay at Maria's apartment was lovely. It is just as pictured and the bed was pretty comfortable. There were plenty of towels provided for us, the washer works well.

Марта-очень добрая и отзывчивая. Не смотря на трудности в общении, мы смогли получить всю необходимую информацию. Комната небольшая, но зато в ней огромная и очень удобная кровать! А также нереальный кот, который иногда спал с нами. Квартира близко расположена к пляжу-10 минут пешком, а до метро 5 минут. Рядом находится бульвар, где множество различных кафе и ресторанов.DariaJuly 2016

I was very satisfied with my stay here. Neto made planning my visit very easy as he responded almost immediately to any inquiries/emails I sent prior to my arrival. He was very friendly and provided useful information. The room and apartment were always very clean and well kept. The room is small and the accommodations are simple, but it is a great price and the stay was very clean and comfortable. I would absolutely stay here again. I didn't realize how amazing the location of this flat is until I arrived. Only two short stops on the Metro from Sants--the major transit hub of Barcelona. There is a lot to do in this neighborhood and even more within short walking distance.AlexanderAugust 2015
Neto's place was great! The location is great~ it's very close to a subway stop, so it's east to get into the busier parts of the city, but it's not too close that you're in the middle of tourist town. There are two other rooms in the apartment and Neto stays there as well. He's SUPER friendly and always available to help out with anything you need. I had a great stay and would totally go back:)DayApril 2015
Netos flat is just amazing! I was more then happy when I arrived. The room is small but perfect for one Person. The greatest thing is the area. You have supermarkets, Bistros and Cafés arround the flat and it is really easy to walk in the Center. Neto offers coffee and tea and the kitchen, bathroom and balcony is really nice. I would always book this room again. Thank you Neto for the nice conversation and all your help. I loved the dog, who came for a visit :)JeniferNovember 2015
Neto made me feel extremely comfortable to stay at his apartment in Barcelona. When he says that it is a good location, it is because it IS in a good location. The metro is really close by and he provided a map of Barcelona to help you know where you would like to go! He was very welcoming and because this was my first air bnb that I went to alone, I think it was the best experience I could've had. There are locks to the room if you feel the need to leave your things with peace in mind. He made sure I knew that he was there for any questions or concerns! This has been one of my favorite Airbnb experiences so far.AndreaSeptember 2015
Neto is really nice and friendly, and he is very helpfull with everything! He got all usefull staff in his flat, the room, kitchen, bathroom were very clean. Also, to the centre is just few station of underground, so i was really happy that i could stay in his flat ;)TeresaFebruary 2015
This is the second time that I have stayed with Neto. He keeps a very tidy clean apt. The location is very close to the Metro L5 line. Neto offers excellent travel advice, and knows good places to eat at low cost. Check in and check out were very easy. The elevator is new, the building is secure and well kept. I loved having snacks out on the balcony overlooking the Eixample neighborhood. Communication was first rate, with prompt replies and accurate information. 5 stars.JimmyMay 2016
Super nice! Neto was very friendly and hospitable. He responds to SMS in time and gives detailed instruction to make it easy to find his home. The room is in good location, near the metro station and is in walking distance to the main spot in the city. Nice independent single room, quiet and comfortable. I would stay again at Neto's when visiting Barcelona in the future.YitianFebruary 2016
Neto was a nice and helpful host. It was comfortable to stay at his place and I was very content with everything. I would go again. I have nothing to be unhappy with. Thank you Neto! :)CaterinaApril 2015

"Squashed entanglement": An additive entanglement measure45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1643788View Description Hide Description
In this paper, we present a new entanglement monotone for bipartite quantum states. Its definition is inspired by the so-called intrinsic information of classical cryptography and is given by the halved minimum quantum conditional mutual information over all tripartite state extensions. We derive certain properties of the new measure which we call "squashed entanglement": it is a lower bound on entanglement of formation and an upper bound on distillable entanglement. Furthermore, it is convex, additive on tensor products, and superadditive in general. Continuity in the state is the only property of our entanglement measure which we cannot provide a proof for. We present some evidence, however, that our quantity has this property, the strongest indication being a conjectured Fannes-type inequality for the conditional von Neumann entropy. This inequality is proved in the classical case.
Quantum mechanics of damped systems. II. Damping and parabolic potential barrier45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1644751View Description Hide Description
We investigate the resonant states for the parabolic potential barrier known also as inverted or reversed oscillator. They correspond to the poles of meromorphic continuation of the resolvent operator to the complex energy plane. As a by-product we establish an interesting relation between parabolic cylinder functions (representing energy eigenfunctions of our system) and a class of Gel'fand distributions used in our recent paper.
Galerkin analysis for Schrödinger equation by wavelets45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1643541View Description Hide Description
We consider the perturbed Schrödinger equation, which is an elliptic operator with unbounded coefficients. We use wavelets adapted to the Schrödinger operator to deal with problems on the unbounded domain. The wavelets are constructed from Hermite functions, which characterizes the space generated by the Schrödinger operator. We show that the Galerkin matrix can be pre-conditioned by a diagonal matrix so that its condition number is uniformly bounded. Moreover, we introduce a periodic pseudo-differential operator and show that its discrete Galerkin matrix under periodic wavelet system is equal to the Galerkin matrix for the equation with unbounded coefficients under the Hermite system. The convergence is proved in the topology.
A random matrix approach to the crossover of energy-level statistics from Wigner to Poisson45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1644752View Description Hide Description
We analyze a class of parametrized random matrix models, introduced by Rosenzweig and Porter, which is expected to describe the energy level statistics of quantum systems whose classical dynamics varies from regular to chaotic as a function of a parameter. We compute the generating function for the correlations of energy levels, in the limit of infinite matrix size. The crossover between Poisson and Wigner statistics is measured by a renormalized coupling constant. The model is exactly solved in the sense that, in the limit of infinite matrix size, the energy-level correlation functions and their generating function are given in terms of a finite set of integrals.
Time dependent transformations in deformation quantization45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1641152View Description Hide Description
We study the action of time dependent canonical and coordinate transformations in phase space quantum mechanics. We extend the covariant formulation of the theory by providing a formalism that is fully invariant under both standard and time dependent coordinate transformations. This result considerably enlarges the set of possible phase space representations of quantum mechanics and makes it possible to construct a causal representation for the distributional sector of Wigner quantum mechanics.
Contextual approach to quantum mechanics and the theory of the fundamental prespace45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1645650View Description Hide Description
We constructed a Hilbert space representation of a contextual Kolmogorov model. This representation is based on two fundamental observables—in the standard quantum model these are the position and momentum observables. This representation has all distinguishing features of the quantum model. Our representation is not standard model with hidden variables. In particular, this is not a reduction of the quantum model to the classical one.
Bound states in two spatial dimensions in the noncentral case45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1639956View Description Hide Description
We derive a bound on the total number of negative energy bound states in a potential in two spatial dimensions by using an adaptation of the Schwinger method to derive the Birman–Schwinger bound in three dimensions. Specifically, counting the number of bound states in a potential for is replaced by counting the number of for which zero energy bound states exist, and then the kernel of the integral equation for the zero-energy wave functon is symmetrized. One of the keys of the solution is the replacement of an inhomogeneous integral equation by a homogeneous integral equation.
Pseudounitary operators and pseudounitary quantum dynamics45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1646448View Description Hide Description
We consider pseudounitary quantum systems and discuss various properties of pseudounitary operators. In particular we prove a characterization theorem for block-diagonalizable pseudounitary operators with finite-dimensional diagonal blocks. Furthermore, we show that every pseudounitary matrix is the exponential of times a pseudo-Hermitian matrix, and determine the structure of the Lie groups consisting of pseudounitary matrices. In particular, we present a thorough treatment of 2×2 pseudounitary matrices and discuss an example of a quantum system with a 2×2 pseudounitary dynamical group. As other applications of our general results we give a proof of the spectral theorem for symplectic transformations of classical mechanics, demonstrate the coincidence of the symplectic group with the real subgroup of a matrix group that is isomorphic to the pseudounitary group and elaborate on an approach to second quantization that makes use of the underlying pseudounitary dynamical groups.
Equal rank embedding and its related construction to superconformal field theories45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1645975View Description Hide Description
The lowest lines of Euler multiplets corresponding to massless and massive supersymmetric representations are classified. At the level of representation theory, the Euler multiplets constructed by the GKRS method of equal rank embedding of semisimple complex Lie algebras are found to be the intrinsic ground states of superconformal field theories according to the Kazama–Suzuki construction.
On linearity of separating multiparticle differential Schrödinger operators for identical particles45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1646449View Description Hide Description
We show that hierarchies of differential Schrödinger operators for identical particles which are separating for the usual (anti-)symmetric tensor product, are necessarily linear, and offer some speculations on the source of quantum linearity.

Casimir energy inside a cavity with triangular cross section45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1643196View Description Hide Description
For a certain class of triangles (with angles proportional to we formulate an image method by making use of the group generated by reflections with respect to the three lines which form the triangle under consideration. We formulate the regularization procedure by classification of subgroups of and corresponding fixed points in the triangle. We then also calculate Casimir energy for a cavity of infinite height with triangular cross section for scalar massless fields. More detailed calculation is given for odd
Soliton solutions on noncommutative orbifold45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1643193View Description Hide Description
In this paper, we explicitly construct a series of projectors on integrable noncommutative orbifold by extended construction. They include integration of two arbitary functions with symmetry. Our expression possesses manifest symmetry. It is proven that the expression includes all projectors with minimal trace and in their standard expansions, the eigenvalue functions of coefficient operators are continuous with respect to the arguments and Based on the integral expression, we alternately show the derivative expression in terms of the similar kernal to the integral one. Since projectors correspond to soliton solutions of the field theory on the noncommutative orbifold, we thus present a series of corresponding solitons.

The BMS group and generalized gravitational instantons45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1645976View Description Hide Description
The ordinary Bondi–Metzner–Sachs (BMS) group B is the best candidate for the fundamental symmetry group of General Relativity. It has been shown that B admits generalizations to real space–times of any signature, and also to complex space–times. It has been suggested that certain continuous unitary irreducible representations (IRs) of B and of its generalizations correspond to gravitational instantons. Here I make this correspondence more precise and I take this suggestion one step further by arguing that a subclass of IRs of B and of its generalizations correspond to generalized gravitational instantons. Some of these generalized gravitational instantons involve in their definition certain subgroups of the Cartesian product group where is the cyclic group of order r. With this motivation, I give the subgroups of explicitly.

Hamiltonians separable in Cartesian coordinates and third-order integrals of motion45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1633352View Description Hide Description
We present in this article all Hamiltonian systems in that are separable in Cartesian coordinates and that admit a third-order integral, both in quantum and in classical mechanics. Many of these superintegrable systems are new, and it is seen that there exists a relation between quantum superintegrable potentials, invariant solutions of the Korteweg–de Vries equation and the Painlevé transcendents.
Equations of arbitrary order invariant under the Kadomtsev–Petviashvili symmetry group45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1645651View Description Hide Description
By means of a simple new approach, a general Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (KP) family with an arbitrary function of group invariants of arbitrary order is proposed. It is proved that the general KP family possesses a common infinite dimensional Kac–Moody–Virasoro Lie point symmetry algebra. The known fourth order one can be re-obtained as a special example. The finite transformation group is presented in a clearer form. The Kac–Moody–Virasoro group invariant solutions and the Kac–Moody group invariant solutions of the KP family are determined by the Boussinesq and KdV families, respectively.
Hyperelliptic Nambu flow associated with integrable maps45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1643195View Description Hide Description
We study hyperelliptic Nambu flows associated with some dimensional maps and show that discrete integrable systems can be reproduced as flows of this class.

Geometric integrators and nonholonomic mechanics45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1644325View Description Hide Description
A geometric derivation of nonholonomic integrators is developed. It is based in the classical technique of generating functions adapted to the special features of nonholonomic systems. The theoretical methodology and the integrators obtained are different from those obtained in Cortés and Martı́nez ["Nonholonomic integrators," Nonlinearity 14, 1365–1392 (2001)]. In the case of mechanical systems with linear constraints a family of geometric integrators preserving the nonholonomic constraints is given.
Nonintegrability of the Suslov problem45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1644324View Description Hide Description
In this paper we investigate the Suslov problem in the case when the vector of nonholonomic constraint coincides with the third principal axis of the body, and the fixed point of the body lies in the principal plane defined by the third and the first principal axes but is out of these axes. We called this version of the Suslov problem the generalized Kozlov case, and we prove that in this case a third real meromorphic first integral functionally independent together with the energy and geometrical integrals does not exist.
An extension of the classical theory of algebraic invariants to pseudo-Riemannian geometry and Hamiltonian mechanics45(2004); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1644902View Description Hide Description
We develop a new approach to the study of Killing tensors defined in pseudo-Riemannian spaces of constant curvature that is ideologically close to the classical theory of invariants. The main idea, which provides the foundation of the new approach, is to treat a Killing tensor as an algebraic object determined by a set of parameters of the corresponding vector space of Killing tensors under the action of the isometry group. The spaces of group invariants and conformal group invariants of valence two Killing tensors defined in the Minkowski plane are described. The group invariants, which are the generators of the space of invariants, are applied to the problem of classification of orthogonally separable Hamiltonian systems defined in the Minkowski plane. Transformation formulas to separable coordinates expressed in terms of the parameters of the corresponding space of Killing tensors are presented. The results are applied to the problem of orthogonal separability of the Drach superintegrable potentials.

The Potts model with countable set Φ of spin values on is considered. It is proved that with respect to Poisson distribution on Φ the set of limiting Gibbs measures is not empty.

Specific Training Sometimes Cuts Wages and Always Cuts Turnover
Turnover falls with tenure, but wages do not always rise (and sometimes fall) with tenure. We reconcile these findings by revisiting an old issue: how gains from firm-specific training are split between workers and firms. The division is determined by a stationary distribution of outside offers. The lower the wage a firm pays to a specifically trained worker, the more profit it makes but the more likely the employee is to leave. The optimal time paths of wages and turnover show that, if marginal product is increasing, wages need not be increasing but it always implies a falling turnover rate.

For Christian Men's Group, Racial Harmony Starts at the Local Level
By LAURIE GOODSTEIN
Published: September 29, 1997
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 23— When Dale Layton and two friends in the suburbs here first heard the call to build a nationwide movement uniting Christian men of all races, they were eager to help as white Christians. But Mr. Layton said there was one obstacle: ''We didn't know any blacks.''
But one of Mr. Layton's friends was an exterminator who had done some pest control work at a black man's house. The black man belonged to a large church whose pastor was an influential black minister. And so three years ago Mr. Layton, a plastic-tubing salesman, and his two friends met with the minister, the Rev. Willie B. O'Neal, sitting at a glass-top table in his church study and trying to sell him and several other wary black church leaders on a new national evangelical organization called Promise Keepers.
Next Saturday, members of Promise Keepers are planning to convene on the Mall in Washington for what they hope will be one of the largest religious rallies in modern American history. Like the Million Man March, attended by hundreds of thousands of black men in October 1995, the Promise Keepers event is for men only. So the gathering has come under attack by from some feminists for its exclusiveness and conservative approach to relations between the sexes.
But leaders of Promise Keepers predict that when it comes to racial inclusiveness, their Washington rally will showcase a model of black-and-white integration, challenging a nation where racially segregated churches are still the norm.
While the group's leaders say they are responding to a biblical mandate to unite the races, the presence of thousands of black men at the rally will also divert criticism by those who say Promise Keepers merely furthers the goals of the conservative white evangelical movement.
Behind the gradual integration of Promise Keepers are years of halting and sometimes painful local efforts like the one in Birmingham. Promise Keepers was founded in 1990 in Boulder, Colo., by Bill McCartney, who stepped down as the football coach at the University of Colorado and who envisioned filling sports stadiums with men cheering for Jesus. At the time, Promise Keepers was ''lily white,'' said the Rev. Raleigh Washington of Chicago, a black minister who is the group's vice president for reconciliation.
Promise Keepers has worked at convincing men that it is not only God's mandate but also manly to pray fervently, to read the Bible regularly, to go to church, to stay loyal to their wives and to nurture their children. The group has also tried to put the same masculine imprimatur on making friends with men of other races. By Promise Keepers' count, that formula has drawn some 2.6 million men to 61 weekend stadium conferences around the country in the last seven years.
When Promise Keepers first came calling on the black churches in Birmingham, some black men say they were suspicious. Most had never heard of the group. Some who knew of Promise Keepers associated it with the religious right. Other black men in Birmingham were simply cynical about being used as tokens.
''In the black community we're accustomed to the white brothers getting excited about a movement and wanting to include us for the numbers,'' said George Stewart, a black radio host who runs a program for inner-city youth. ''After getting hurt a few times, you think, 'I'll just stay here in my corner and not get involved again with these guys.' ''
Birmingham is a city that is hypersensitive about its history as a segregation holdout, the setting in which Police Commissioner T. Eugene Connor called out the fire hoses and police dogs on black civil rights protesters, and where a church bombing killed four little black girls.
When the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote his letter from a Birmingham jail in 1963 in response to eight liberal white clergymen who had implored him to stop marching, Dr. King called Birmingham ''probably the most thoroughly segregated city in the United States.''
So three years ago, when the three white suburban men promoting Promise Keepers sat in the black pastor's study at Mount Canaan Full Gospel Church, Mr. Stewart remembers studying Mr. Layton out of the corner of his eye and thinking, ''These guys from over the mountain don't know anything about us.''
As the meeting closed, Mr. Stewart said, something moved him to put these earnest white men to the test.
''Let's not play games,'' he recalled telling them. ''You say you want to get together with us, so invite us out.''
Mr. Stewart explained, ''I wanted to see if they were serious about getting to know us.''
Mr. Layton said he had replied, ''You'll hear from me.''
Unknowingly, Mr. Stewart had struck a nerve with the men promoting Promise Keepers. Where some other white-initiated groups with interracial intentions talk about ''doing outreach'' to other ethnic groups, or ''building coalitions,'' Promise Keepers talks of ''forming lasting relationships'' between individuals of different races. They have avoided altogether taking stands on traditional civil rights issues like affirmative action, voting rights or discrimination in the workplace.

Hi All
I have recently redesigned my blog which used to be a simple wedding blog and I've moved into a slightly more designed template as I was moving to my own hosting and could customise a lot more.
It's still a work in progress, but I"m really interested in any feedback as to things that I might be able to improve or things that are missing!
Thanks in advance,

About Jeff Masters
Dr. Masters co-founded wunderground in 1995. He flew with the NOAA Hurricane Hunters 1986-1990. Co-blogging with him: Bob Henson, @bhensonweather
By: Dr. Jeff Masters , 2:10 PM GMT on September 25, 2007
Satellite imagery and this morning's QuikSCAT pass show a vigorous surface circulation that continues to spin in the Gulf of Mexico, about 280 miles south-southeast of Brownsville, Texas. This disturbance (94L) has one clump of heavy thunderstorms on the northern side of the circulation, and QuikSCAT saw winds up to 25 mph at 8:14 am this morning. Wind shear has fallen to about 10 knots over the disturbance, and is expected to remain 10 knots or below for the next three days. This should allow 94L to develop into a tropical depression later today or on Wednesday. Steering currents are weak in the southwest Gulf of Mexico, and 94L will move slowly and erratically. This storm is primarily a threat to Mexico, due to a very strong ridge of high pressure expected to remain in place over the Gulf of Mexico the rest of the week. Several of the models foresee an eventual landfall to the west or south between Tampico and Campeche late this week. A Hurricane Hunter flight is scheduled to investigate 94L this afternoon.
Lesser Antilles disturbance 97L needs to be watched
A tropical wave (97L) was near 15N 62W, or just west of Dominica and Martinique in the Lesser Antilles Islands at 8 am EDT this morning. This wave had a closed circulation yesterday, but this circulation degenerated and was no longer fully closed on this morning's QuikSCAT pass. Top winds from QuikSCAT were about 30 mph just to the northeast of the northernmost islands in the chain. None of the islands had winds exceeding 15 mph between 8 am and 9 am EDT this morning. Satellite imagery shows heavy thunderstorm activity mostly died out last night, but is now making a comeback, with some major cells blowing up over Guadaloupe. A surface circulation also appears to be trying to form under these new cells. The wave is under about 10-20 knots of wind shear. The shear is forecast to remain near 20 knots through Thursday, which may allow some slow development. The 06Z (2 am EDT) run of the GFDL model did develop 97L into a weak tropical storm. The forecast had 97L moving over Puerto Rico on Wednesday, the Dominican Republic on Thursday, and eastern Cuba by Saturday. The 06Z HWRF model did not develop 97L. If 97L does develop, and survives passage over Hispaniola and Cuba, and survives some possible encounters with areas of high wind shear, it could arrive at the Florida coast on Sunday as a tropical storm. That's a lot of "ifs", and there is only about a 5% chance of this happening. The Hurricane Hunter mission for this afternoon into 97L was canceled, and no new missions are scheduled.

This image is bit different from the usual 85 GHz images I show, which emphasize where it is raining through the total depth of the storm. The image above is taken at 37 GHz, where one sees more of the surface structure of the storm. Image credit: Navy/NRL.
Tropical Storm Karen forms
Tropical Storm Karen formed this morning, midway between Africa and the Lesser Antilles Islands. This large storm is still disorganized, as seen in the latest satellite loops. Low level spirals bands are slowly organizing, and with wind shear 10 knots or less, Karen should be able to steadily strengthen to a hurricane, as predicted by the SHIPS and GFDL intensity models. The HWRF model keeps Karen just below hurricane strength. Later this week, Karen may encounter a region of hostile wind shear in association with a trough of low pressure that will also turn the storm to the north or northwest. This may slow or reverse Karen's intensification.
It currently appears that Karen will not affect any land areas. It is unusual for a hurricane to turn west and hit the U.S. after going as far north as the official NHC forecast has the storm five days from now. The GFS model has consistently shown that Karen will recurve out to sea east of Bermuda next week. However, the UKMET model is showing a more southerly track just north of the Lesser Antilles islands six days from now. Should Karen follow this track, the storm may miss the trough the GFS is predicting will recurve it. In this case, Karen could be a long-range threat to Bermuda or the U.S. East Coast.
Disturbed weather over Florida and the Bahamas
An area of disturbed weather has formed over South Florida and the western Bahama Islands, in association with an upper-level trough of low pressure. The region is under about 20 knots of wind shear, which should prevent any development. This disturbance is bringing heavy rain to portions of South Florida, the Bahamas, and Cuba, as seen on long range radar out of Key West.
Hurricane Center Directorship open
The position of director of the National Hurricane Center is officially open, according to a story published today in the Miami Herald. The current acting director, veteran hurricane forecaster Ed Rappaport, will decline to apply. "The timing of this position is not right, both personally and professionally, so I have chosen not to apply," said Rappaport, 49. Leading candidates for the job include the current interim deputy director, Bill Read, and hurricane specialist Rick Knabb.

Can I use my Windows 7 license in a dual-boot configuration?
I have a single copy of Windows 7 Pro OEM. I would like dual boot Windows 7 on a single PC, one for games and one for applications.
Am I allowed to do this, will Windows pop up a message telling me one of my installs is not valid or something? I really don't want to get to the point where I have to phone up to validate my copy of windows, because that's just rubbish.
Thanks in advance

[It doesn't look like you've installed WP yet. Try running install.php]
And when I "Try running install.php" the page comes up, but it is blank.
I set up my config file and uploaded it with everything else. However, I didn't know what to do with this part:
define ('WPLANG', ''); I didn't put in a language, because I was hoping it would default to English. Is this my problem? I can't find documentation or forum reference to this.
