A method is proposed to construct spiral curves by inversion of a spiral arc of parabola. The resulting curve is rational of 4-th order. Proper selection of the parabolic arc and parameters of inversion allows to match a wide range of…
We investigate the lines tangent to four triangles in R^3. By a construction, there can be as many as 62 tangents. We show that there are at most 162 connected components of tangents, and at most 156 if the triangles are disjoint. In…
We present a, hopefully, elementary mathematical treatment of the computational aspects of congruent numbers, such that an amateur could understand the problem and perform their own calculations.
We present a scheme to generate two-dimensional cluster state efficiently. The number of the basic gate-entangler-for the operation is in the order of the entanglement bonds of a cluster state, and could be reduced greatly if one uses them…
We demonstrate an efficient numerical method to calculate three-tangle of general mixed states. We construct a "energy function" (target function) for the three-tangle of the mixed state under certain constrains. The "energy function"…
The purpose of this short manuscript is to show that all point constructions that can be done via ruler and compass, can also be done with compass exclusively. If we are using compass and ruler the way we construct new points is by first…
A projective rectangle is like a projective plane that has different lengths in two directions. We develop the basic theory of projective rectangles including incidence properties, projective subplanes, configuration counts, a partial…
We provide a constructive algorithm to find the best separable approximation to an arbitrary density matrix of a composite quantum system of finite dimensions. The method leads to a condition of separability and to a measure of…
Given a plane oval, is it possible to go around it so that, at all times, the two tangent segments to the oval from the moving point have unequal lengths? In this note we construct an example of such an oval.
Excellent computer simulations are done for a purpose. The most valid purposes are to explore uncharted territory, to resolve a well-posed scientific or technical question, or to make a design choice. Stand-alone modeling can serve the…
We compute the fundamental groups of the complements of the family of real conic-line arrangements with up to two conics which are tangent to each other at two points, with an arbitrary number of tangent lines to both conics. All the…
Our objective was to design a quantum repeater capable of achieving one million entangled pairs per second over a distance of 1000km. We failed, but not by much. In this letter we will describe the series of developments that permitted us…
We propose an efficient scheme for constructing arbitrary 2-D cluster states using probabilistic entangling quantum gates.In our scheme, the 2-D cluster state is constructed with star-like basic units generated from 1-D cluster chains.By…
We establish a technique to find the states with most robust entanglement in dissipative quantum systems and explicitly construct those state for various environments.
We determine the distribution of nearest neighbour spacings between the tangencies to a fixed circle in a class of circle packings generated by reflections. We use a combination of geometric tools and the theory of automorphic forms.
We classify edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent almost equilateral pentagons, in which four edges have the same length. Together with our earlier classifications of edge-to-edge tilings of the sphere by congruent equilateral…
A multi-agent system comprises numerous agents that autonomously make decisions to collectively accomplish tasks, drawing significant attention for their wide-ranging applications. Within this context, formation control emerges as a…
From a geometric approach, we derive the minimum number of applications needed for an arbitrary Controlled-Unitary gate to construct a universal quantum circuit. A new analytic construction procedure is presented and shown to be either…
