This work is an analytical and numerical study of the composition of several fractals into one and of the relation between the composite dimension and the dimensions of the component fractals. In the case of composition of standard IFS with…
The nature of equilibrium states in disordered materials is often studied using an overlap function P(q), the probability of two configurations having similarity q. Exact sampling simulations of a two-dimensional proxy for three-dimensional…
We study the phenomenon of the locking of the order parameter (or synchronization) in spin glasses at low temperatures. When two systems with independent disorders are coupled, their overlaps become similar. A crucial question is how this…
An ideal system of $n$ qubits has $2^n$ dimensions. This exponential grants power, but also hinders characterizing the system's state and dynamics. We study a new problem: the qubits in a physical system might not be independent. They can…
We propose a new method for simulating QCD at finite density, where interesting phases such as the color superconductivity phase is conjectured to appear. The method is based on a general factorization property of distribution functions of…
We construct a four-dimensional supersymmetric QCD in conformal window with a marginally relevant deformation which triggers the spontaneous breaking of (approximate) scale invariance and the subsequent confinement, generating a mass gap,…
The problem of measuring nontrivial static correlations in deeply supercooled liquids made recently some progress thanks to the introduction of amorphous boundary conditions, in which a set of free particles is subject to the effect of a…
It is well known that string theory generates the idea of higher dimensional spacetime instead of the (3+1) dimensions, in which we seem to live. It indicates that the extra space dimensions may remain curled up into very small space. In…
Supercooled first order phase transitions are typical of theories where conformal symmetry is predominantly spontaneously broken. In these theories the fate of the flat scalar direction is highly sensitive to the size and the scaling…
The measurement problem remains unaddressed in modern physics, with an array of proposed solutions but as of yet no agreed resolution. In this paper, we examine measurement using the Q-based, objective-field model for quantum mechanics.…
We introduce a measure of average dimensionality (or coherence) for high-dimensional quantum devices. This includes sets of quantum measurements, steering assemblages, and quantum channels. For measurements and channels, our measure…
We examine Frostman-type characterisations and other extremal measure criteria for a range of fractal dimensions of sets. In particular we derive properties of the less familiar modified lower box dimension and upper correlation dimension.…
It is well known that in a quantum phase transition (QPT), entanglement remains short ranged [Osterloh et al., Nature 416 608-610 (2005)]. We ask if there is a quantum property entailing the whole system which diverges near this point.…
We study the quantization for a class of in-homogeneous self-similar measures $\mu$ supported on self-similar sets. Assuming the open set condition for the corresponding iterated function system, we prove the existence of the quantization…
Recent experiments claiming formation of quantum superposition states in near macroscopic sys- tems raise the question of how the sizes of general quantum superposition states in an interacting system are to be quantified. We propose here a…
Quantum superposition, collapse of wave function and quantum measurement problem are reexamined based on nonadiabatic dressed states and experimental observations on the quantum transitions. The physical mechanisms behind these processes…
The isostatic jamming limit of frictionless spherical particles from Edwards' statistical mechanics [Song \emph{et al.}, Nature (London) {\bf 453}, 629 (2008)] is generalized to arbitrary dimension $d$ using a liquid-state description. The…
Quadrature squeezed cylindrically polarized modes contain entanglement not only in the polarization and spatial electric field variables but also between these two degrees of freedom [1]. In this paper we present tools to generate and…
Reconstructing the full quantum state of a many-body system requires the estimation of a number of parameters that grows exponentially with system size. Nevertheless, there are situations in which one is only interested in a subset of these…
We show a hitherto unexplored consequence of the property of identicity in quantum mechanics. If two identical objects, distinguished by a dynamical variable A, are in certain entangled states of another dynamical variable B, then, for such…
