We make explicit a larger structural phenomenon hidden behind the existence of normalizers in terms of existence of certain cartesian maps related to the kernel functor.
A new class of self-similar ordered structures with non-crystallographic point symmetries is presented. Each of these structures, named superquasicrystals, is given as a section of a higher-dimensional "crystal" with recursive superlattice…
Unitary $t$-designs are `good' finite subsets of the unitary group $U(d)$ that approximate the whole unitary group $U(d)$ well. Unitary $t$-designs have been applied in randomized benchmarking, tomography, quantum cryptography and many…
Combinatorial designs have been studied for nearly 200 years. Fifty years ago, Cameron, Delsarte, and Ray-Chaudhury started investigating their q-analogs, also known as subspace designs or designs over finite fields. Designs can be defined…
Computational techniques for the construction of quasi-symmetric block designs are explored and applied to the case with $56$ points. One new $(56,16,18)$ and many new $(56,16,6)$ designs are discovered, and non-existence of $(56,12,9)$ and…
Quantum incompatibility, referred as the phenomenon that some quantum measurements cannot be performed simultaneously, is necessary for various quantum information processing tasks, such as nonlocality and steering. When these applications…
This paper presents a substructural logic of sequents with very restricted exchange and weakening rules. It is sound with respect to sequences of measurements of a quantic system. A sound and complete semantics is provided. The semantic…
In this paper various Steiner systems $S(2,k,v)$ for $k = 6$ are collected and enumerated for specific constructions. In particular, two earlier unknown types of $1$-rotational designs are found for the groups $SL(2,5)$ and $((\mathbb Z_3…
We derive sufficient conditions for the solvability of the observer design problem for a wide class of nonlinear time-varying systems, including those having triangular structure. We establish that, under weaker assumptions than those…
We present a criterion, based on three commutator relations, that allows to decide whether two self-adjoint matrices with non-overlapping support are simultaneously unitarily similar to quasidiagonal matrices, i.e., whether they can be…
This work gathers new results concerning the semi-geostrophic equations: existence and stability of measure valued solutions, existence and uniqueness of solutions under certain continuity conditions for the density, convergence to the…
We consider the optimal design problem for a comparison of two regression curves, which is used to establish the similarity between the dose response relationships of two groups. An optimal pair of designs minimizes the width of the…
We give an expression of the $q$-analogues of the multiplicities of weights in irreducible $\sl_{n+1}$-modules in terms of the geometry of the crystal graph attached to the corresponding $U_q(\sl_{n+1})$-modules. As an application, we…
A number of recent articles have reported the existence of topologically non-trivial states and associated end states in one-dimensional incommensurate lattice models that would usually only be expected in higher dimensions. Using an…
Block-transitive Steiner $t$-designs form a central part of the study of highly symmetric combinatorial configurations at the interface of several disciplines, including group theory, geometry, combinatorics, coding and information theory,…
We construct a normal projective $\mathbb{Q}$-Gorenstein surface over an algebraically closed field whose canonical ring is not finitely generated. Moreover, we provide a counterexample to the minimal model program for…
Weakly well-designed SPARQL patterns is a recent generalisation of well-designed patterns, which preserve good computational properties but also capture almost all patterns that appear in practice. Subsumption is one of static analysis…
The paper deals with the observer design problem for a wide class of triangular time-varying nonlinear systems, with unobservable linearization. Sufficient conditions are derived for the existence of a Luenberger-type observer, when it is a…
We operationally introduce mixed quantum t-designs as the most general arbitrary-rank extension of projective quantum t-designs which preserves indistinguishability from the uniform distribution for t copies. First, we derive upper bounds…
We prove the existence of higher-order topological insulators in: {\it i}) fourfold rotoinversion invariant bulk crystals, and {\it ii}) inversion-symmetric systems with or without an additional three-fold rotation symmetry. These states of…
