It is shown that the Lorentz group is the natural language for two-beam interferometers if there are no decoherence effects. This aspect of the interferometer can be translated into six-parameter representations of the Lorentz group, as in…
We present a new approach for correcting instrumental polarization by modeling the non-depolarizing effects of a complex series of optical elements to determine physically realizable Mueller matrices. Provided that the Mueller matrix of the…

Low-rank decompositions to reduce the Coulomb operator to a pairwise form suitable for its quantum simulation are well-known in quantum chemistry, where the underlying basis functions are real-valued. We generalize the result of Motta…
For $n\ge 2$ and fixed $k\ge 1$, we study when a square matrix $A$ over an arbitrary field $\mathbb{F}$ can be decomposed as $T+N$ where $T$ is a torsion matrix and $N$ is a nilpotent matrix with $N^k=0$. For fields of prime characteristic,…
The extension of ab initio quantum many-body theory to higher accuracy and larger systems is intrinsically limited by the handling of large data objects in form of wave-function expansions and/or many-body operators. In this work we present…
