Peripherally specified homomorphs of link groups

V. Kurlin, D. Lines

Johnson and Livingston have characterized peripheral structures in homomorphs of knot groups. We extend their approach to the case of links. The main result is an algebraic charact…

Field-free two-direction alignment alternation of linear molecules by elliptic laser pulses

D. Daems, S. Guérin, E. Hertz +3

We show that a linear molecule subjected to a short specific elliptically polarized laser field yields postpulse revivals exhibiting alignment alternatively located along the ortho…

Efficient and long-lived field-free orientation of molecules by a single hybrid short pulse

D. Daems, S. Guérin, D. Sugny +1

We show that a combination of a half-cycle pulse and a short nonresonant laser pulse produces a strongly enhanced postpulse orientation. Robust transients that display both efficie…

On curvature and feedback classification of two-dimensional optimal control systems

Ulysse Serres

The goal of this paper is to extend to two-dimensional optimal control systems with scalar input the classical notion of Gaussian curvature of two-dimensional Riemannian surface us…

Longitudinal versus transverse spheroidal vibrational modes of an elastic sphere

L. Saviot, D. B. Murray

Analysis of the spheroidal modes of vibration of a free elastic sphere show that they can be qualitatively grouped into two categories: primarily longitudinal and primarily transve…

Decoherence-free creation of atom-atom entanglement in cavity via fractional adiabatic passage

Mahdi Amniat-Talab, Stephane Guerin, Hans-Rudolf Jauslin

We propose a robust and decoherence insensitive scheme to generate controllable entangled states of two three-level atoms interacting with an optical cavity and a laser beam. Losse…
