On delocalization of eigenvectors of random non-Hermitian matrices
2019
We study delocalization of null vectors and eigenvectors of random matrices with i.i.d entries. Let $A$ be an $n\times n$ random matrix with i.i.d real subgaussian entries of zero mean and unit variance. We show that with probability at least $1-e^{-\log^{2} n}$ $$ \min\limits_{I\subset[n],\,|I|= m}\|{\bf v}_I\| \geq \frac{m^{3/2}}{n^{3/2}\log^Cn}\|{\bf v}\| $$ for any real eigenvector ${\bf v}$ and any $m\in[\log^C n,n]$, where ${\bf v}_I$ denotes the restriction of ${\bf v}$ to $I$. Further, when the entries of $A$ are complex, with i.i.d real and imaginary parts, we show that with probability at least $1-e^{-\log^{2} n}$ all eigenvectors of $A$ are delocalized in the sense that $$ \min\l…
A symmetric Galerkin BEM for plate bending analysis
2009
Abstract The Symmetric Galerkin Boundary Element Method is employed in thin plate bending analysis in accordance with the Love–Kirchhoff kinematical assumption. The equations are obtained through the stationary conditions of the total potential energy, written for a plate whose boundary is discretized in boundary elements. Since the matrix coefficients are made up as double integrals with high order singularities, a strategy is shown to compute these coefficients in closed form. Furthermore, in order to model the kinematical discontinuities and to weight the mechanical quantities along the boundary elements, the Lagrangian quadratic shape functions, rather than C 1 type (spline, Hermitian),…
Supervised learning of time-independent Hamiltonians for gate design
2018
We present a general framework to tackle the problem of finding time-independent dynamics generating target unitary evolutions. We show that this problem is equivalently stated as a set of conditions over the spectrum of the time-independent gate generator, thus transforming the task to an inverse eigenvalue problem. We illustrate our methodology by identifying suitable time-independent generators implementing Toffoli and Fredkin gates without the need for ancillae or effective evolutions. We show how the same conditions can be used to solve the problem numerically, via supervised learning techniques. In turn, this allows us to solve problems that are not amenable, in general, to direct ana…
Operator (Quasi-)Similarity, Quasi-Hermitian Operators and All that
2016
Motivated by the recent developments of pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics, we analyze the structure generated by unbounded metric operators in a Hilbert space. To that effect, we consider the notions of similarity and quasi-similarity between operators and explore to what extent they preserve spectral properties. Then we study quasi-Hermitian operators, bounded or not, that is, operators that are quasi-similar to their adjoint and we discuss their application in pseudo-Hermitian quantum mechanics. Finally, we extend the analysis to operators in a partial inner product space (pip-space), in particular the scale of Hilbert space s generated by a single unbounded metric operator.
