Photons do not interact directly with each other, but conditional control of one beam by another can be achieved with non-linear optical media at high field intensities. It is exceedingly difficult to reach such intensities at the single…
We analyze a physically motivated fine-grained mesh-connected computer model, assuming that a word of information takes a fixed area and that it takes unit time and unit energy to move a word unit distance. This is a representation of…
We present a general framework of localized operators, i.e., operators whose matrix coefficients with respect to the Gabor frame are concentrated on the diagonal. We show that localized operators are bounded between modulation spaces, and…
We report an experimental realization of both optimal asymmetric cloning and telecloning of single photons by making use of partial teleportation of an unknown state. In the experiment, we demonstrate that, conditioned on the success of…

Let $H$ be an infinite dimensional separable Hilbert space and $B(H)$ the C*-algebra of bounded operators on $H.$ Suppose that $T_1,T_2,..., T_n$ are self-adjoint operators in $B(H).$ We show that, if commutators $[T_i, T_j]$ are…

We propose three novel solvers for estimating the relative pose of a multi-camera system from affine correspondences (ACs). A new constraint is derived interpreting the relationship of ACs and the generalized camera model. Using the…
The difficulty for solving ill-posed linear operator equations in Hilbert space is reflected by the strength of ill-posedness of the governing operator, and the inherent solution smoothness. In this study we focus on the ill-posedness of…
In this paper, we consider a novel and robust maximum likelihood approach to localizing radiation sources with unknown statistics of the source signal strength. The result utilizes the smallest number of sensors required theoretically to…
The expressions of the eigenfunctions of the Hawton photon position operator in the configuration space are derived for several classes of wave function, including the Riemann-Silberstein and Landau-Peierls cases. Although these…
We construct a one-particle TOA operator $\mathcal{\hat{T}}$ canonically conjugate with the Hamiltonian describing a free, charged, spin-$0$, relativistic particle in one spatial dimension and show that it is maximally symmetric. We solve…
We answer the question whether linear-optical processing of the states produced by one or multiple imperfect single-photon sources can improve the single-photon fidelity. This processing can include arbitrary interferometers, coherent…

The Wigner localization is an electron phase at low densities when the electrons are sharply localized around equilibrium positions. The simulation of the Wigner localization phenomenon requires careful treatment of the many-body…

We approach uncertainty principles of Cowling-Price-Heis-\\enberg-type as a variational principle on modulation spaces. In our discussion we are naturally led to compact localization operators with symbols in modulation spaces. The optimal…
