A recent analytic test of the instanton method performed by comparing the exact spectrum of the Lam${acute e}$ potential (derived from representations of a finite dimensional matrix expressed in terms of $su(2)$ generators) with the results of the tight--binding and instanton approximations as well as the standard WKB approximation is commented upon. It is pointed out that in the case of the Lam${acute e}$ potential as well as others the WKB--related method of matched asymptotic expansions yields the exact instanton result as a result of boundary conditions imposed on wave functions which are matched in domains of overlap.

This paper together with the previous one (arXiv:hep-th/0604146) presents the detailed description of all quantum deformations of D=4 Lorentz algebra as Hopf algebra in terms of complex and real generators. We describe here in detail two quantum defo rmations of the D=4 Lorentz algebra o(3,1) obtained by twisting of the standard q-deformation U_{q}(o(3,1)). For the first twisted q-deformation an Abelian twist depending on Cartan generators of o(3,1) is used. The second example of twisting provides a quantum deformation of Cremmer-Gervais type for the Lorentz algebra. For completeness we describe also twisting of the Lorentz algebra by standard Jordanian twist. By twist quantization techniques we obtain for these deformations new explicit formulae for the deformed coproducts and antipodes of the o(3,1)-generators.
We extend topological string methods in order to perform WKB approximations for quantum mechanical problems with higher order potentials efficiently. This requires techniques for the evaluation of the relevant quantum periods for Riemann surfaces bey ond genus one. The basis of these quantum periods is fixed using the leading behaviour of the classical periods. The full expansion of the quantum periods is obtained using a system of Picard-Fuchs like operators for a sequence of integrals of meromorphic forms of the second kind. Discrete automorphisms of simple higher order potentials allow to view the corresponding higher genus curves as covering of a genus one curve. In this case the quantum periods can be alternatively obtained using the holomorphic anomaly solved in the holomorphic limit within the ring of quasi modular forms of a congruent subgroup of SL$(2,mathbb{Z})$ as we check for a symmetric sextic potential.
Quantum tunneling between degenerate ground states through the central barrier of a potential is extended to excited states with the instanton method. This extension is achieved with the help of an LSZ reduction technique as in field theory and may b e of importance in the study of macroscopic quantum phenomena in magnetic systems.
In this paper we show that by carefully making good choices for various detailed but important factors in a visual recognition framework using deep learning features, one can achieve a simple, efficient, yet highly accurate image classification syste m. We first list 5 important factors, based on both existing researches and ideas proposed in this paper. These important detailed factors include: 1) $ell_2$ matrix normalization is more effective than unnormalized or $ell_2$ vector normalization, 2) the proposed natural deep spatial pyramid is very effective, and 3) a very small $K$ in Fisher Vectors surprisingly achieves higher accuracy than normally used large $K$ values. Along with other choices (convolutional activations and multiple scales), the proposed DSP framework is not only intuitive and efficient, but also achieves excellent classification accuracy on many benchmark datasets. For example, DSPs accuracy on SUN397 is 59.78%, significantly higher than previous state-of-the-art (53.86%).
The Picard-Fuchs equation is a powerful mathematical tool which has numerous applications in physics, for it allows to evaluate integrals without resorting to direct integration techniques. We use this equation to calculate both the classical action and the higher-order WKB corrections to it, for the sextic double-well potential and the Lame potential. Our development rests on the fact that the Picard-Fuchs method links an integral to solutions of a differential equation with the energy as a parameter. Employing the same argument we show that each higher-order correction in the WKB series for the quantum action is a combination of the classical action and its derivatives. From this, we obtain a computationally simple method of calculating higher-order quantum-mechanical corrections to the classical action, and demonstrate this by calculating the second-order correction for the sextic and the Lame potential. This paper also serves as a self-consistent guide to the use of the Picard-Fuchs equation.
