Acknowledgements

I would like to express my profound gratitude to Professor Shevrin. He not only proposed the question for direction of research but also offered many ideas of proofs in this paper (especially proofs of Theorem 3.1, Lemmas 2.6 and 4.2), making the text more concise and acceptable. Furthermore, he gave plenty of valuable remarks and suggestions that led to many improvements in the paper.
