Numerical Brill-Lindquist initial data with a Schwarzschildean end at spatial infinity

Georgios Doulis, Oliver Rinne

We construct numerically time-symmetric initial data that are Schwarzschildean at spatial infinity and Brill-Lindquist in the interior. The transition between these two data sets t…

Tuning the magnetic anisotropy of single molecules

Benjamin W. Heinrich, Lukas Braun, Jose I. Pascual +1

The magnetism of single atoms and molecules is governed by the atomic scale environment. In general, the reduced symmetry of the surrounding splits the states and aligns the ma…

Optimal Control of Majorana Zero Modes

Torsten Karzig, Armin Rahmani, Felix von Oppen +1

Braiding of Majorana zero modes provides a promising platform for quantum information processing, which is topologically protected against errors. Strictly speaking, however, the s…

A generalization of the discrete version of Minkowski's fundamental theorem

Bernardo González Merino, Matthias Henze

One of the most fruitful results from Minkowski's geometric viewpoint on number theory is his so called 1st Fundamental Theorem. It provides an optimal upper bound for the volume o…

Strong localization of Majorana end states in chains of magnetic adatoms

Yang Peng, Falko Pientka, Leonid I. Glazman +1

A recent experiment [Nadj-Perge et al., Science 346, 602 (2014)] gives possible evidence for Majorana bound states in chains of magnetic adatoms placed on a superconductor. While m…

Statistically optimal analysis of state-discretized trajectory data from multiple thermodynamic states

Hao Wu, Antonia S. J. S. Mey, Edina Rosta +1

We propose a discrete transition-based reweighting analysis method (dTRAM) for analyzing configuration-space-discretized simulation trajectories produced at different thermodynamic…
