Recently, the paper Limit Set of Branching Random Walks on Hyperbolic Groups, which was co-authored by Associate Professor Wang Longmin from the School of Statistics and Data Science of Nankai University, was published online in the world-renowned mathematical journal Communications on Pure and Applied Mathematics.Some statistical physics models on non-compliant graphs often have a weak survival phase. For example, when, in the case of branching random walks, the branching rate is within a certa
Lithium niobate (LiNbO3, LN) is a versatile ferroelectric crystal that has the electrooptical, acousto-optic, piezoelectric, pyroelectric and nonlinear optical effects. It plays a prominent role in the latest technological achievements in nonlinear resonators, modulators, permanent holographic recording devices and on-chip integrated optics. LN crystal, a classical inorganic photorefractive material, has stable physical and chemical properties, but it is difficult to achieve fast dynamic refresh
