Non-Markovianity-assisted optimal continuous variable quantum teleportation
2018
We study the continuous-variable (CV) quantum teleportation protocol in the case that one of the two modes of the shared entangled resource is sent to the receiver through a Gaussian Quantum Brownian Motion noisy channel. We show that if the channel is engineered in a non-Markovian regime, the information backflow from the environment induces an extra dependance of the phase of the two-mode squeezing of the shared Gaussian entangled resource on the transit time along the channel of the shared mode sent to the receiver. Optimizing over the non-Markovianity dependent phase of the squeezing yields a significant enhancement of the teleportation fidelity. For short enough channel transit times, …
On the Kirzhnits gradient expansion in two dimensions
2011
We derive the semiclassical Kirzhnits expansion of the D-dimensional one-particle density matrix up to the second order in $\hbar$. We focus on the two-dimensional (2D) case and show that all the gradient corrections both to the 2D one-particle density and to the kinetic energy density vanish. However, the 2D Kirzhnits expansion satisfies the consistency criterion of Gross and Proetto [J. Chem. Theory Comput. 5, 844 (2009)] for the functional derivatives of the density and the noninteracting kinetic energy with respect to the Kohn-Sham potential. Finally we show that the gradient correction to the exchange energy diverges in agreement with the previous linear-response study.
Resonances over a potential well in an island
2020
In this paper we study the distribution of scattering resonances for a multidimensional semi-classical Schr\"odinger operator, associated to a potential well in an island at energies close to the maximal one that limits the separation of the well and the surrounding sea.
A concise review on pseudo-bosons, pseudo-fermions and their relatives
2017
We review some basic definitions and few facts recently established for $\D$-pseudo bosons and for pseudo-fermions. We also discuss an extended version of these latter, based on biorthogonal bases, which lives in a finite dimensional Hilbert space. Some examples are described in details.
(Regular) pseudo-bosons versus bosons
2012
We discuss in which sense the so-called {\em regular pseudo-bosons}, recently introduced by Trifonov and analyzed in some details by the author, are related to ordinary bosons. We repeat the same analysis also for {\em pseudo-bosons}, and we analyze the role played by certain intertwining operators, which may be bounded or not.
TOPOLOGICAL PARTIAL *-ALGEBRAS: BASIC PROPERTIES AND EXAMPLES
1999
Let [Formula: see text] be a partial *-algebra endowed with a topology τ that makes it into a locally convex topological vector space [Formula: see text]. Then [Formula: see text] is called a topological partial *-algebra if it satisfies a number of conditions, which all amount to require that the topology τ fits with the multiplier structure of [Formula: see text]. Besides the obvious cases of topological quasi *-algebras and CQ*-algebras, we examine several classes of potential topological partial *-algebras, either function spaces (lattices of Lp spaces on [0, 1] or on ℝ, amalgam spaces), or partial *-algebras of operators (operators on a partial inner product space, O*-algebras).
Plasmon de surface de particules métalliques toroïdales
2006
This thesis deals with the optical properties of small metal torii. A method of resolution of the equation of Laplace in toroidal coordinates is introduced and the radiative properties of the metal toric nanoparticules are studied within the electrostatic framework. The study on the eigenmodes spatial distribution suggests that metal nanotorus can carry a non-zero magnetic dipole moment at optical frequencies. Analytical expressions for the extinction and scattering cross sections of the torus are also found and compared with numerical simulations and experimental results obtained with collaborations. The sensitivity of the plasmon frequency to the refraction index of the external medium an…
Similarity Solutions and Collapse in the Attractive Gross-Pitaevskii Equation
2000
We analyse a generalised Gross-Pitaevskii equation involving a paraboloidal trap potential in $D$ space dimensions and generalised to a nonlinearity of order $2n+1$. For {\em attractive} coupling constants collapse of the particle density occurs for $Dn\ge 2$ and typically to a $\delta$-function centered at the origin of the trap. By introducing a new dynamical variable for the spherically symmetric solutions we show that all such solutions are self-similar close to the center of the trap. Exact self-similar solutions occur if, and only if, $Dn=2$, and for this case of $Dn=2$ we exhibit an exact but rather special D=1 analytical self-similar solution collapsing to a $\delta$-function which …
Numerical Study of the semiclassical limit of the Davey-Stewartson II equations
2014
We present the first detailed numerical study of the semiclassical limit of the Davey–Stewartson II equations both for the focusing and the defocusing variant. We concentrate on rapidly decreasing initial data with a single hump. The formal limit of these equations for vanishing semiclassical parameter , the semiclassical equations, is numerically integrated up to the formation of a shock. The use of parallelized algorithms allows one to determine the critical time tc and the critical solution for these 2 + 1-dimensional shocks. It is shown that the solutions generically break in isolated points similarly to the case of the 1 + 1-dimensional cubic nonlinear Schrodinger equation, i.e., cubic…
High Reynolds number Navier-Stokes solutions and boundary layer separation induced by a rectilinear vortex
2013
Abstract We compute the solutions of Prandtl’s and Navier–Stokes equations for the two dimensional flow induced by a rectilinear vortex interacting with a boundary in the half plane. For this initial datum Prandtl’s equation develops, in a finite time, a separation singularity. We investigate the different stages of unsteady separation for Navier–Stokes solution at different Reynolds numbers Re = 103–105, and we show the presence of a large-scale interaction between the viscous boundary layer and the inviscid outer flow. We also see a subsequent stage, characterized by the presence of a small-scale interaction, which is visible only for moderate-high Re numbers Re = 104–105. We also investi…
