In an alternating-current network, each edge has a complex "conductance" with positive real part. The response map is the linear map from the vector of voltages at a subset of "boundary nodes" to the vector of currents flowing into the…

This paper focuses on characterizing the fundamental performance limits that can be expected from an ideal decoder given a general model, ie, a general subset of "simple" vectors of interest. First, we extend the so-called notion of…
An analytical model of a single-atom electron source is presented, where electrons are created by near-threshold photoionization of an isolated atom. The model considers the classical dynamics of the electron just after the photon…
This paper considers an optimal impulse control problem of dynamical systems generated by a flow. The performance criteria are total costs over the infinite time horizon. Apart from the main performance to be minimized, there are multiple…
Robustness is a basic property of any control system. In the context of linear output regulation, it was proved that embedding an internal model of the exogenous signals is necessary and sufficient to achieve tracking of the desired…
Based on the Thomas-Fermi approach, we describe and distinguish the electron distributions around extended nuclear cores: (i) in the case that cores are neutral for electrons bound by protons inside cores and proton and electron numbers are…
While integrated photonics is a robust platform for quantum information processing, architectures for photonic quantum computing place stringent demands on high quality information carriers. Sources of single photons that are highly…
In this paper, we consider the N-pure notion. An ideal $I$ of a ring $R$ is said to be N-pure, if for every $a\in I$ there exists $b\in I$ such that $a(1-b)\in N(R)$, where N(R) is nil radical of $R$. We provide new characterizations for…
We address the nonlinear inverse source problem of identifying a time-dependent source occurring in one node of a network governed by a wave equation. We prove that time records of the associated state taken at a strategic set of two nodes…
Quantum-optimal discrimination between one and two closely separated light sources can be achieved by ideal spatial-mode demultiplexing, simply monitoring whether a photon is detected in a single antisymmetric mode. However, we show that…
We compute an effective potential between two fixed sources in light-front quantization of a quenched scalar Yukawa theory that models the interaction of complex scalar fields through the exchange of a neutral scalar. Despite the breaking…
Single-photon sources based on semiconductor quantum dots have emerged as an excellent platform for high efficiency quantum light generation. However, scalability remains a challenge since quantum dots generally present inhomogeneous…
A single-electron inverter was fabricated that switches from a high output to a low output when a fraction of an electron is added to the input. For the proper operation of the inverter, the two single-electron transistors that make up the…
We derive a lower bound on the smallest output entropy that can be achieved via vector quantization of a $d$-dimensional source with given expected $r$th-power distortion. Specialized to the one-dimensional case, and in the limit of…
Integrated photonics is a powerful contender in the race for a fault-tolerant quantum computer, claiming to be a platform capable of scaling to the necessary number of qubits. This necessitates the use of high-quality quantum states, which…
A particular type of linear optical multiport, the Grover four-port, has previously been shown to couple the spatial symmetry of a photon to its direction of travel. It is shown here that use of a nonstandard choice of qubit, based on…
Recall that a rng is a ring which is possibly non-unital. In this note, we address the problem whether every finitely generated idempotent rng (abbreviated as irng) is singly generated as an ideal. It is well-known that it is the case for a…
