Breakdown of scale invariance in a quasi-two-dimensional Bose gas due to the presence of the third dimension

Karina Merloti, Romain Dubessy, Laurent Longchambon +2

In this Rapid Communication, we describe how the presence of the third dimension may break the scale invariance in a two-dimensional Bose gas in a pancake-shaped trap. From the two…

Breakdown of the scale invariance in the vicinity of Tonks-Girardeau gas

Z. D. Zhang, G. E. Astrakharchik, D. C. Aveline +4

In this article, we consider the monopole excitations of the harmonically trapped Bose gas in the vicinity of the Tonks-Girardeau limit. Using Girardeau's Fermi-Bose duality and su…

On Unconditionally Secure Multiparty Computation for Realizing Correlated Equilibria in Games

Ye Wang, Shantanu Rane, Prakash Ishwar

In game theory, a trusted mediator acting on behalf of the players can enable the attainment of correlated equilibria, which may provide better payoffs than those available from th…

Connected sums and finite energy foliations I: Contact connected sums

Joel W. Fish, Richard Siefring

We consider a -manifold equipped with nondegenerate contact form and compatible almost complex structure . We show that if the data admits a stable finite…

Quantum effects improve the energy efficiency of feedback control

Jordan M. Horowitz, Kurt Jacobs

The laws of thermodynamics apply equally well to quantum systems as to classical systems, and because of this quantum effects do not change the fundamental thermodynamic efficiency…

Ehrenfest Dynamics and Frictionless Cooling Methods

S. Choi, R. Onofrio, B. Sundaram

Recently introduced methods which result in shortcuts to adiabaticity, particularly in the context of frictionless cooling, are rederived and discussed in the framework of an appro…

Tight orientably-regular polytopes

Marston Conder, Gabe Cunningham

Every equivelar abstract polytope of type has at least flags. Polytopes that attain this lower bound are called tight. Here we inve…

Non-asymptotic performance analysis of importance sampling schemes for small noise diffusions

Konstantinos Spiliopoulos

In this note we develop a prelimit analysis of performance measures for importance sampling schemes related to small noise diffusion processes. In importance sampling the performan…

Technical Report: Distribution Temporal Logic: Combining Correctness with Quality of Estimation

Austin Jones, Mac Schwager, Calin Belta

We present a new temporal logic called Distribution Temporal Logic (DTL) defined over predicates of belief states and hidden states of partially observable systems. DTL can express…

Plasmonic enhancement of the third order nonlinear optical phenomena: figures of merit

Jacob B Khurgin, Greg Sun

Recent years have seen increased interest to plasmonic enhancement of nonlinear optical effects, yet there remains an uncertainty of what are the limits of this enhancement. We pre…

Equivariant, string and leading order characteristic classes associated to fibrations

Andres Larrain-Hubach, Yoshiaki Maeda, Steven Rosenberg +1

We construct equivariant, string and leading order characteristic classes and Chern-Simons classes for certain infinite rank bundles associated to fibrations occurring in loop spac…

Sampling-Based Temporal Logic Path Planning

Cristian Ioan Vasile, Calin Belta

In this paper, we propose a sampling-based motion planning algorithm that finds an infinite path satisfying a Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) formula over a set of properties satisfied…

Chiral extensions of chiral polytopes

Gabe Cunningham, Daniel Pellicer

Given a chiral d-polytope K with regular facets, we describe a construction for a chiral (d + 1)-polytope P with facets isomorphic to K. Furthermore, P is finite whenever K is fini…

Minimal noise subsystems

Xiaoting Wang, Mark Byrd, Kurt Jacobs

The existence of a decoherence-free subspace/subsystem (DFS) requires that the noise possesses a symmetry. In this work we consider noise models in which perturbations break this s…

Entropy production along nonequilibrium quantum jump trajectories

Jordan M. Horowitz, Juan M. R. Parrondo

For classical nonequilibrium systems, the separation of the total entropy production into the adiabatic and nonadiabatic contributions is useful for understanding irreversibility i…

The Prouhet-Tarry-Escott Problem and Generalized Thue-Morse Sequences

Ethan D. Bolker, Carl Offner, Robert Richman +1

We present new methods of generating Prouhet-Tarry-Escott partitions of arbitrarily large regularity. One of these methods generalizes the construction of the Thue-Morse sequence t…

Exact protein distributions for stochastic models of gene expression using partitioning of Poisson processes

Hodjat Pendar, Thierry Platini, Rahul V. Kulkarni

Stochasticity in gene expression gives rise to fluctuations in protein levels across a population of genetically identical cells. Such fluctuations can lead to phenotypic variation…

Modulated Electromechanics: Large Enhancements of Nonlinearities

Jie-Qiao Liao, Kurt Jacobs, Franco Nori +1

It is well-known that the nonlinear coupling between a mechanical oscillator and a superconducting oscillator or optical cavity can be used to generate a Kerr-nonlinearity for the…

Optimal Control of MDPs with Temporal Logic Constraints

Maria Svorenova, Ivana Cerna, Calin Belta

In this paper, we focus on formal synthesis of control policies for finite Markov decision processes with non-negative real-valued costs. We develop an algorithm to automatically g…
