Asymptotics are derived for the scaling of the total diffraction intensity for the set of $k$-free integers near the origin, which is a measure for the degree of patch fluctuations.
We consider the $k$th-power-free points in $n$-dimensional lattices and explicitly calculate their entropies and diffraction spectra. This is of particular interest since these sets have holes of unbounded inradius.
We prove that the set of visible points of any lattice of dimension at least 2 has pure point diffraction spectrum, and we determine the diffraction spectrum explicitly. This settles previous speculation on the exact nature of the…
The scaling behaviour of the diffraction intensity near the origin is investigated for (partially) ordered systems, with an emphasis on illustrative, rigorous results. This is an established method to detect and quantify the fluctuation…
We apply a pulsed-light interferometer to measure both the intensity and the phase of light that is transmitted through a strongly scattering disordered material. From a single set of measurements we obtain the time-resolved intensity,…
We establish asymptotic formulae for the number of $k$-free values of polynmilas $F(x_1,\cdots,x_n)\in\mathbb{Z}[x_1,\cdots,x_n]$ of degree $d\geq 2$ for any $n\geq 1$, including when the variables are prime, as long as $k\geq (3d+1)/4$.…
For $k \geq 2$, we consider the number $A_k(Z)$ of positive integers $n \leq Z$ such that both $n$ and $n+1$ are $k$-free. We prove an asymptotic formula $A_k(Z) = c_k Z + O(Z^{14/(9k)+\epsilon})$, where the error term improves upon…
We introduce diffraction-based interaction-free measurements. In contrast with previous work where a set of discrete paths is engaged, good quality interaction-free measurements can be realized with a continuous set of paths, as is typical…
We investigate Dicke subradiance of distant quantum sources in free space, i.e., the spatial emission pattern of spontaneously radiating non-interacting multi-level atoms or multi-photon sources, prepared in totally antisymmetric states. We…
We study the inverse conductivity problem with discontinuous conductivities. We consider, simultaneously, a regularisation and a discretisation for a variational approach to solve the inverse problem. We show that, under suitable choices of…
This paper deals with the dynamics of discretizations of isometries of $\mathbf R^n$, and more precisely the density of the successive images of $\mathbf Z^n$ by the discretizations of a generic sequence of isometries. We show that this…
Diffraction methods are at the heart of structure determination of solids. While Bragg-like scattering (pure point diffraction) is a characteristic feature of crystals and quasicrystals, it is not straightforward to interpret continuous…
We introduce a new approach for estimating the invariant density of a multidimensional diffusion when dealing with high-frequency observations blurred by independent noises. We consider the intermediate regime, where observations occur at…
Given a Fourier transformable measure in two dimensions, we find a formula for the intensity of its Fourier transform along circles. In particular, we obtain a formula for the diffraction measure along a circle in terms of the…
We analyze the nested derivatives of a function $\mathfrak{D}^{n}[f]\,(x)$ asymptotically, as $n\rightarrow\infty,$ using a discrete version of the ray method. We give some examples showing the accuracy of our formulas.
For a class of particle systems in continuous space with local interactions, we show that the asymptotic diffusion matrix is an infinitely differentiable function of the density of particles. Our method allows us to identify relatively…
We study the asymptotic behavior of discrete measures on S^{n-1} that are induced by radially projecting point masses concentrated on the integral lattice-points within dilates of a compact body D, for various classes of D. The results…
Simple yet accurate results for radiative transfer in layered media with discontinuous refractive index are obtained by the method of K-integrals, originally developed for neutron transport analysis. These are certain weighted integrals…
We analyze an intensity interferometry measurement carried out with two point-like detectors facing a distant source (e.g., a star) that may be partially occluded by an absorptive object (e.g., a planet). Such a measurement, based on the…
This paper deals with the kernel density estimator based on the so-called sinc (or Fourier integral) kernel $K(x)=(\pi x)^{-1}\sin x$. We study in detail both asymptotic and finite sample properties of this estimator. It is shown that,…
