The capacity of bandlimited direct-detection channels is challenging to compute or approach due to the receiver non-linearity. A generalized vector approximate message passing (GVAMP) detector is designed to achieve high rates at a…
We consider the reflection of a photon by a two-level system in a quasi-one-dimensional waveguide. This is important in part because it forms the backdrop for more complicated proposals where many emitters are coupled to the waveguide:…
Observation of redshifted 21-cm signals from neutral hydrogen holds the key to understanding the structure formation and its evolution during the reionization and post-reionization era. Apart from the presence of orders of magnitude larger…
This note formulates a deterministic recovery result for vectors $x$ from quadratic measurements of the form $(Ax)_i \overline{(Ax)_j}$ for some left-invertible $A$. Recovery is exact, or stable in the noisy case, when the couples $(i,j)$…

Strongly lensed gravitational waves (GWs) from binary coalescence manifest as repeated chirps from the original merger. At the detectors, the phase of the lensed GWs and its arrival time differences will be consistent modulo a fixed…

Gravitational waves emitted from compact binary coalescence can be subject to wave diffraction if they are gravitationally lensed by an intervening mass clump whose Schwarzschild timescale matches the wave period. Waves in the ground-based…
