Refractory times for excitable dual state quantum dot laser neurons

Michael Dillane, Evgeny A. Viktorov, Bryan Kelleher

Excitable photonic systems show promise for ultrafast analog computation, several orders of magnitude faster than biological neurons. Optically injected quantum dot lasers display…

Harmonic Frequency Locking and Tuning of Comb Frequency Spacing through Optical Injection

Kevin Shortiss, Benjamin Lingnau, Fabien Dubois +2

We show, both experimentally and theoretically, that a slave laser injected with an optical frequency comb can undergo two distinct locking mechanisms, both of which decrease the o…

Devil's Staircases in Continuous Systems with Modulated Forcing

Benjamin Lingnau, Kevin Shortiss, Fabien Dubois +2

The discrete circle map is the archetypical example of a driven periodic system, showing a complex resonance structure under a change of the forcing frequency known as the devil's…

The physical gravitational degrees of freedom

Edward Anderson, Julian Barbour, Brendan Z. Foster +2

When constructing general relativity (GR), Einstein required 4D general covariance. In contrast, we derive GR (in the compact, without boundary case) as a theory of evolving 3-dime…

A first-principles derivation of York scaling and the Lichnerowicz-York equation

Edward Anderson, Julian Barbour, Brendan Z. Foster +2

The only efficient and robust method of generating consistent initial data in general relativity is the conformal technique initiated by Lichnerowicz and perfected by York. In the…

Gravity on Conformal Superspace

Bryan Kelleher

The configuration space of general relativity is superspace - the space of all Riemannian 3-metrics modulo diffeomorphisms. However, it has been argued that the configuration space…
