Analysis of the Standard Definition of Cosmopolitanism
2021
This chapter investigates the traditional definition of cosmopolitanism which understands cosmopolitanism as moral egalitarianism. It sets out in detail how the three core elements (individualism, universality, and generality) allow so much room for interpretation that the definition hardly provides any information on what moral egalitarianism means. It confirms that cosmopolitanism as moral egalitarianism includes almost all theories of global justice, even such that are commonly seen as opposing positions.
N-dimensional alternate coined quantum walks from a dispersion-relation perspective
2013
We propose an alternative definition of an N-dimensional coined quantum walk by generalizing a recent proposal [Di Franco et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 080502 (2011)]. This N-dimensional alternate quantum walk, AQW_N, in contrast with the standard definition of the N-dimensional quantum walk, QW_N, requires only a coin-qubit. We discuss the quantum diffusion properties of AQW_2 and AQW_3 by analyzing their dispersion relations that reveal, in particular, the existence of diabolical points. This allows us to highlight interesting similarities with other well known physical phenomena. We also demonstrate that AQW_3 generates genuine multipartite entanglement. Finally we discuss the implementa…
