Spectral estimates for resolvent differences of self-adjoint elliptic operators

Jussi Behrndt, Matthias Langer, Vladimir Lotoreichik

The notion of quasi boundary triples and their Weyl functions is an abstract concept to treat spectral and boundary value problems for elliptic partial differential equations. In t…

Bak--Sneppen type models and rank-driven processes

Michael Grinfeld, Philip A. Knight, Andrew R. Wade

The Bak--Sneppen model is a simple stochastic model of evolution that exhibits self-organized criticality and for which few analytical results have been established. In the origina…

Search for Gravitational Wave Bursts from Six Magnetars

J. Abadie, B. P. Abbott, R. Abbott +765

Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are thought to be magnetars: neutron stars powered by extreme magnetic fields. These rare objects are characterized b…

MIMO Identical Eigenmode Transmission System (IETS) - A Channel Decomposition Perspective

M. Zeeshan Shakir, Tariq S. Durrani

In the past few years considerable attention has been given to the design of Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) Eigenmode Transmission Systems (EMTS). This paper presents an in-…

On the inverse image of pattern classes under bubble sort

Michael H. Albert, M. D. Atkinson, Mathilde Bouvel +2

Let B be the operation of re-ordering a sequence by one pass of bubble sort. We completely answer the question of when the inverse image of a principal pattern class under B is a p…

Multiscale lattice Boltzmann approach to modeling gas flows

Jianping Meng, Yonghao Zhang, Xiaowen Shan

For multiscale gas flows, kinetic-continuum hybrid method is usually used to balance the computational accuracy and efficiency. However, the kinetic-continuum coupling is not strai…

Generalised state spaces and non-locality in fault tolerant quantum computing schemes

N. Ratanje, S. Virmani

We develop connections between generalised notions of entanglement and quantum computational devices where the measurements available are restricted, either because they are noisy…

Architectural Support for Global Smart Spaces

Alan Dearle, Graham Kirby, Ron Morrison +6

A GLObal Smart Space (GLOSS) provides support for interaction amongst people, artefacts and places while taking account of both context and movement on a global scale. Crucial to t…

Laser cooling with a single laser beam and a planar diffractor

Matthieu Vangeleyn, Paul F. Griffin, Erling Riis +1

A planar triplet of diffraction gratings is used to transform a single laser beam into a four-beam tetrahedral magneto-optical trap. This `flat' pyramid diffractor geometry is idea…

Finding bridges in packings of colloidal spheres

Matthew C. Jenkins, Mark D. Haw, Gary C. Barker +2

We identify putative load-bearing structures (bridges) in experimental colloidal systems studied by confocal microscopy. Bridges are co-operative structures that have been used to…

Information erasure without an energy cost

Joan A. Vaccaro, Stephen M. Barnett

Landauer argued that the process of erasing the information stored in a memory device incurs an energy cost in the form of a minimum amount of mechanical work. We find, however, th…

Reference frames for Bell inequality violation in the presence of superselection rules

T. Paterek, P. Kurzynski, D. K. L. Oi +1

Superselection rules (SSRs) constrain the allowed states and operations in quantum theory. They limit preparations and measurements hence impact upon our ability to observe non-loc…
