Quantum cellular automata (QCAs) are automorphisms of tensor product algebras that preserve locality, with local quantum circuits as a simple example. We study approximate QCAs, where the locality condition is only satisfied up to a small…
We analyze the factorization process for lattice maps, searching for integrable cases. The maps were assumed to be at most quadratic in the dependent variables, and we required minimal factorization (one linear factor) after 2 steps of…
We obtain a new value for the QCD coupling constant by combining lattice QCD simulations with experimental data for hadron masses. Our lattice analysis is the first to: 1) include vacuum polarization effects from all three light-quark…

Higher-order Voronoi diagrams and Delaunay mosaics in polygonal metrics have only recently been studied, yet no tools exist for visualizing them. We introduce a tool that fills this gap, providing dynamic interactive software for…
We use lattice QCD simulations, with MILC configurations (including vacuum polarization from u, d, and s quarks), to update our previous determinations of the QCD coupling constant. Our new analysis uses results from 6 different lattice…
