A new series representation of the Madelung constant is given. We represent Madelung constant as a sum of an exact term plus an exponentially fast converging series. The remarkable result is that even if the series part is discarded, one…
A general formula is obtained from which the madelung type constant: $$ C(d|\nu)=\int_0^\infty dx x^{d/2-\nu-1}[(\sum_{l=-\infty}^\infty e^{-xl^2})^d-1-(\frac\pi x)^{d/2}] $$ extensively used in the finite-size scaling theory is computed…
In this work, we propose a new algorithm for finding a zero in the sum of two monotone operators where one is assumed to be single-valued and Lipschitz continuous. This algorithm naturally arises from a non-standard discretization of a…
We introduce the Clifford entropy, a measure of how close an arbitrary unitary is to a Clifford unitary, which generalizes the stabilizer entropy for states. We show that this quantity vanishes if and only if a unitary is Clifford, is…
