Complexity and Behind the Horizon Cut Off

Motivated by $T{\overline T}$ deformation of a conformal field theory we compute holographic complexity for a black brane solution with a cut off using "complexity=action" proposal. In order to have a late time behavior consistent with Lloyd's bound one is forced to have a cut off behind the horizon whose value is fixed by the boundary cut off. Using this result we compute holographic complexity for two dimensional AdS solutions where we get expected late times linear growth. It is in contrast with the naively computation which is done without assuming the cut off where the complexity approaches a constant at the late time.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figures, refs added, contribution of a counter term is added, minor correction, the final conclusion is not change

A Study of the Renewal Cycle of Hotel Building Elements in Malaysia

Penang is the main tourism island which appeals an increasing number of travellers each year. Therefore, the hotels in Penang play a crucial role in the field of Penang tourism. However, recently some problems with the Penang hotels have been brought to light frequently by travellers including domestic and foreign tourists. The reason for this may be due to irregular maintenance as well as the fact that the renewal of the building elements may not have been duly carried out. In light of that, this research investigated the condition of the maintenance and renewal cycle of the building elements of the hotels in Penang. This study was conducted with a quantitative method, using a questionnaire to collect information regarding the condition of maintenance, evaluation of the condition of the building elements and the frequency of building elements renewal. The results revealed that each building element renewal cycle is differing according to the effects of maintenance and its lifespan. In terms of comparison with the renewals in Singapore hotels, there are shortcomings involved in the schedule of element renewals carried out in Penang

P-Wave Holographic Insulator/Superconductor Phase Transition

Using a five dimensional AdS soliton in an Einstein-Yang-Mills theory with SU(2) gauge group we study p-wave holographic insulator/superconductor phase transition. To explore the phase structure of the model we consider the system in the probe limit as well as fully back reacted solutions. We will also study zero temperature limit of the p-wave holographic superconductor in four dimensions.Comment: Latex,18 pages,7 figures, v2: Typos correction, v3: minor changes added, and clarifications mad

Fermions in non-relativistic AdS/CFT correspondence

We extend the non-relativistic AdS/CFT correspondence to the fermionic fields. In particular we study the two point function of a fermionic operator in non-relativistic CFTs by making use of a massive fermion propagating in geometries with Schrodinger group isometry. Although the boundary of the geometries with Schrodinger group isometry differ from that in AdS geometries where the dictionary of AdS/CFT is established, using the general procedure of AdS/CFT correspondence, we see that the resultant two point function has the expected form for fermionic operators in non-relativistic CFTs, though a non-trivial regularization may be needed.Comment: 12 pages,Latex file; V2: typos corrected, refs adde

A special breed of transformational leadership? Integrating conflict management and ethnicity into team coordination in multicultural temporary environments

Conflict is common during group activities, and how leaders deal with team members and the conflicts that arise in a project team environment can significantly affect team coordination. This study explores how conflict is dealt with by providing empirical evidence of relationships between transformational leadership style, conflict management styles and the ethnicity of leaders in multicultural project environments in the construction industry. The research extends conflict management style into the transformational leadership behaviour of team leaders to identify their effects on team coordination. Moreover, it evaluates how the ethnicity of leaders can moderate the relationships. This contribution is exceptional for bringing three moderating ethnic groups while drawing on data from 126 teams in the construction industry, using PLS path modelling to test our hypotheses. The results demonstrate that cooperative and conflict-avoiding management styles are positively related to team coordination. The judicious and considered use of the conflict-avoiding management style, in particular, should be recognised as an appropriate solution in certain multi-cultural team contexts by transformational leaders. Teams also exhibited stronger coordination when the team leader was nominated from a specific ethnic group. Possible directions in which future research can be structured are also outlined
