Statistical and systematic errors in Monte Carlo sampling

1991

We have studied the statistical and systematic errors which arise in Monte Carlo simulations and how the magnitude of these errors depends on the size of the system being examined when a fixed amount of computer time is used. We find that, depending on the degree of self-averaging exhibited by the quantities measured, the statistical errors can increase, decrease, or stay the same as the system size is increased. The systematic underestimation of response functions due to the finite number of measurements made is also studied. We develop a scaling formalism to describe the size dependence of these errors, as well as their dependence on the “bin length” (size of the statistical sample), both…

Estimation of the Repeatedly-Projected Reduced Density Matrix under Decoherence

2007

Decoherence is believed to deteriorate the ability of a purification scheme that is based on the idea of driving a system to a pure state by repeatedly measuring another system in interaction with the former and hinder for a pure state to be extracted asymptotically. Nevertheless, we find a way out of this difficulty by deriving an analytic expression of the reduced density matrix for a two-qubit system immersed in a bath. It is shown that we can still extract a pure state if the environment brings about only dephasing effects. In addition, for a dissipative environment, there is a possibility of obtaining a dominant pure state when we perform a finite number of measurements.

Energy relaxation in a? 4 with long range interactions

1995

We investigate the influence of long range interactions on the relaxation behaviour of a lattice model with an on-site potential ofϕ 4-type and “infinite” range harmonic interactions. For finite number of particlesN, it is shown that the autocorrelation functions of the fluctuations of the one-particle energiesE n(t) decays exponentially. The corresponding relaxation time τ is proportional toN and is given by τ(T, N) =Nτ0(T). The temperature dependent time scale τ0 can explicitly be related to the dynamics of a one-particle correlator of the noninteracting system. The results are derived using Mori-Zwanzig projection formalism. The corresponding memory kernel is calculated within a mode cou…

Quantum spectral curve for arbitrary state/operator in AdS$_5$/CFT$_4$

2015

We give a derivation of quantum spectral curve (QSC) - a finite set of Riemann-Hilbert equations for exact spectrum of planar N=4 SYM theory proposed in our recent paper Phys.Rev.Lett. 112 (2014). We also generalize this construction to all local single trace operators of the theory, in contrast to the TBA-like approaches worked out only for a limited class of states. We reveal a rich algebraic and analytic structure of the QSC in terms of a so called Q-system -- a finite set of Baxter-like Q-functions. This new point of view on the finite size spectral problem is shown to be completely compatible, though in a far from trivial way, with already known exact equations (analytic Y-system/TBA, …

Bethe-Salpeter Approach for Meson-Meson Scattering in Chiral Perturbation Theory

1998

The Bethe-Salpeter equation restores exact elastic unitarity in the s- channel by summing up an infinite set of chiral loops. We use this equation to show how a chiral expansion can be undertaken by successive approximations to the potential which should be iterated. Renormalizability of the amplitudes in a broad sense can be achieved by allowing for an infinite set of counter-terms as it is the case in ordinary Chiral Perturbation Theory. Within this framework we calculate the $\pi \pi$ scattering amplitudes both for s- and p-waves at lowest order in the proposed expansion where a successful description of the low-lying resonances ($\sigma$ and $\rho$) and threshold parameters is obtained.…

A finite number of regular rotational bands in the superdeformed well of 143Eu

1995

Abstract The number of excited superdeformed bands in 143 Eu is measured by use of the Fluctuation Analysis Method. Between 10 and 40 rotational bands, displaying typical rotational energy correlations over two consecutive transitions, are populated within a rather narrow range in transition energy, E γ ≈ 1300–1500 keV. These numbers are close to the values found for normally deformed nuclei and agree with microscopic cranking + band mixing calculations for the specific superdeformed nucleus, which predict the onset of rotational damping to occur at the excitation energy U 0 = 1.3–1.6 MeV above the yrast line.

Constraining exotic interactions

2018

Beyond-the-standard-model interactions mediated by an exchange of virtual "new" bosons result in a finite set of possible effective interaction potentials between standard-model particles such as electrons and nucleons. We discuss the classification of such potentials and briefly review recent experiments searching for such exotic interactions at spatial scales from sub-nanometers to tens of thousand kilometers.

Probabilistic Fault-Tolerant Universal Quantum Computation and Sampling Problems in Continuous Variables

2019

Continuous-Variable (CV) devices are a promising platform for demonstrating large-scale quantum information protocols. In this framework, we define a general quantum computational model based on a CV hardware. It consists of vacuum input states, a finite set of gates - including non-Gaussian elements - and homodyne detection. We show that this model incorporates encodings sufficient for probabilistic fault-tolerant universal quantum computing. Furthermore, we show that this model can be adapted to yield sampling problems that cannot be simulated efficiently with a classical computer, unless the polynomial hierarchy collapses. This allows us to provide a simple paradigm for short-term experi…

Reconstruction of Markovian master equation parameters through symplectic tomography

2009

In open quantum systems, phenomenological master equations with unknown parameters are often introduced. Here we propose a time-independent procedure based on quantum tomography to reconstruct the potentially unknown parameters of a wide class of Markovian master equations. According to our scheme, the system under investigation is initially prepared in a Gaussian state. At an arbitrary time t, in order to retrieve the unknown coefficients one needs to measure only a finite number (ten at maximum) of points along three time-independent tomograms. Due to the limited amount of measurements required, we expect our proposal to be especially suitable for experimental implementations.

Star network synchronization led by strong coupling-induced frequency squeezing

2017

We consider a star network consisting of N oscillators coupled to a central one which in turn is coupled to an infinite set of oscillators (reservoir), which makes it leaking. Two of the N + 1 normal modes are dissipating, while the remaining N - 1 lie in a frequency range which is more and more squeezed as the coupling strengths increase, which realizes synchronization of the single parts of the system.
