The Bell inequalities and the joint measurement of incompatible observables

A quantum-mechanical theory of joint nonideal measurement of incompatible polarization observables is applied to an EPR-like experiment. It is demonstrated that this experiment yields both information satisfying and information violating the Bell inequalities. The measurement is also discussed in the context of a local hidden-variables theory. It is argued that the violation of an additional assumption of reproducibility of the hidden variable rather than violation of locality may be responsible for the violation of the Bell inequalities.     

Impact dynamics of multibody systems with frictional contact using joint coordinates and canonical equations of motion

This paper presents a methodology in computational dynamics for the analysis of mechanical systems that undergo intermittent motion. A canonical form of the equations of motion is derived with a minimal set of coordinates. These equations are used in a procedure for balancing the momenta of the system over the period of impact, calculating the jump in the body momentum, velocity discontinuities and rebounds. The effect of dry friction is discussed and a contact law is proposed. The present formulation is extended to open and closed-loop mechanical systems where the jumps in the constraints' momenta are also solved. The application of this methodology is illustrated with the study of impact of open-loop and closed-loop examples.     

Implementation of an algorithm for detecting patterns in defocused scenes using binary joint transform correlation

An original method to detect images in defocused scenes by means of a binary joint transform correlation is presented. Defocused images are described in frequency domain as the product between the Fourier transform of the in-focus scene by the optical transfer function of the imaging lens. This function, which presents positive and negative values, introduces sign errors in the joint power spectrum. The goal of this study is to detect the sign of the optical transfer function starting from the defocused image by means of a digital algorithm. Information provided by the algorithm allows to compensate the sign errors in the binary joint power spectrum and to obtain invariant correlations with respect to defocusing. Theoretical analysis and digital experiments to test the procedure are provided.     

Contrast-improved joint transform correlator using spatial light modulators

When real time optical pattern recognition is carried out by means of spatial light modulators, a practical situation may arise in which the size of the Fourier transform and the intensity of the light source are fixed. Then, provided the input scene and the size of the spatial light modulator allow it, an interesting possibility for improving the overall intensity in the Fourier plane is the replication of the scene, either along a regular lattice structure or a random replication. In this work we analyse the usefulness of these methods, both to obtain diffraction images or cross-correlation between images in a joint transform correlator.

Properties of fourth-order strong mixing rates and its application to random set theory

We shall define the concept of fourth-order strong mixing rates and study their properties. Results are useful for establishing a condition of the form (*) Σ_a,b,c |cum(X_o, X_a, X_b, X_c)| < ∞ or ∫|cum(X_o, X_a, X_b, X_c)| da db dc < ∞ for dependent random variables {X_a}. As an application we shall consider an evaluation of a fourth-order strong mixing rate for a random closed set Z (in the sense of Matheron) and derive the condition (*) for {X_a}, X_a being an outcome of a local measurement upon Z. The result is also applicable to point processes which admit clustering representations.     

T0-spaces and pointwise convergence

The purpose of this paper is to give several different characterizations of those T₀-spaces E with the property that if F:X × E → Y is separately continuous, then it is jointly continuous. One such is that the lattice 0(E) of open sets of E be a hypercontinuous lattice (i.e. the interval topology on 0(E) is Hausdorff). If E is a sober space, then E must be a quasicontinuous poset endowed with the Scott topology.     

On the limiting behavior of randomly weighted partial sums

We study the almost sure limiting behavior and convergence in probability of weighted partial sums of the form where {W_nj, 1jn, n1} and {X_nj, 1jn, n1} are triangular arrays of random variables. The results obtain irrespective of the joint distributions of the random variables within each array. Applications concerning the Efron bootstrap and queueing theory are discussed.     

On the use of linear graph theory in multibody system dynamics

Multibody dynamics involves the generation and solution of the equations of motion for a system of connected material bodies. The subject of this paper is the use of graph-theoretical methods to represent multibody system topologies and to formulate the desired set of motion equations; a discussion of the methods available for solving these differential-algebraic equations is beyond the scope of this work. After a brief introduction to the topic, a review of linear graphs and their associated topological arrays is presented, followed in turn by the use of these matrices in generating various graph-theoretic equations. The appearance of linear graph theory in a number of existing multibody formulations is then discussed, distinguishing between approaches that use absolute (Cartesian) coordinates and those that employ relative (joint) coordinates. These formulations are then contrasted with formal graph-theoretic approaches, in which both the kinematic and dynamic equations are automatically generated from a single linear graph representation of the system. The paper concludes with a summary of results and suggestions for further research on the graph-theoretical modelling of mechanical systems.
