Branching of regular abnormal geodesics in sub-Riemannian manifolds of rank two

Luca Rizzi, Mario Sigalotti, Nicolò Tedesco

We study branching of regular abnormal geodesics in sub-Riemannian manifolds of rank two. As an application, we provide examples of two new phenomena: continuous families of strict…

Local controllability of heralded quantum linear optics

Tommaso Francalanci, Nicolò Spagnolo, Mario Sigalotti +3

Photonic linear optical networks provide a versatile platform for quantum information processing and quantum state engineering. However, the set of states that can be generated usi…

A Mathematical Characterization of Neural Activation Induced by Temporal Interference Stimulation

Esteban Paduro, Antoine Chaillet, Mario Sigalotti

Temporal Interference Stimulation (TIS) is a non-invasive neuromodulation technique in which two high-frequency sinusoidal currents with slightly different frequencies generate a l…

Orbits and attainable Hamiltonian diffeomorphisms of mechanical Liouville equations

Bettina Kazandjian, Eugenio Pozzoli, Mario Sigalotti

We study the approximate controllability problem for Liouville transport equations along a mechanical Hamiltonian vector field. Such PDEs evolve inside the orbit $$\mathcal{O}(ρ_0)…

A Note on Pliability and the Openness of the Multiexponential Map in Carnot Groups

Frédéric Jean, Mario Sigalotti, Alessandro Socionovo

In recent years, several notions of non-rigidity of horizontal vectors in Carnot groups have been proposed, motivated, in particular, by the characterization of monotone sets and W…

Enhancing the controllability of quantum systems via a static field

Ruikang Liang, Eugenio Pozzoli, Monika Leibscher +3

We provide a sufficient condition for the controllability of a bilinear closed quantum system steered by a static field and a time-varying field, based on the notion of weakly coni…
