Nearly deterministic linear optical controlled-NOT gate

We show how to construct a near deterministic CNOT gate using several single photons sources, linear optics, photon number resolving quantum nondemolition detectors, and feed forward. This gate does not require the use of massively entangled states common to other implementations and is very efficient on resources with only one ancilla photon required. The key element of this gate is nondemolition detectors that use a weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity effect to conditionally generate a phase shift on a coherent probe if a photon is present in the signal mode. These potential phase shifts can then be measured using highly efficient homodyne detection.     

Nearly linear dynamics of nonlinear dispersive waves

Dispersive averaging effects are used to show that the Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) equation with periodic boundary conditions possesses high frequency solutions, which behave nearly linearly. Numerical simulations are presented, which indicate the high accuracy of this approximation. Furthermore, this result is applied to shallow water wave dynamics in the limit of KdV approximation, which is obtained by asymptotic analysis in combination with numerical simulations of KdV.     

On linear response theory and area preserving mappings

In this report the linear response theory of Kubo and the verification of the Kubo formula for electrical conduction by experiments and numerical calculations is reviewed. A survey of area reserving mappings is given, emphasizing the significance of these mappings for mechanics and statistical mechanics. The response of area preserving mappings with different statistical properties is calculated. The relation between the response, the statistical properties of the mappings and the fundamental assumptions of linear response theory is discussed.     

Nearly perfect metamaterial plasmonic absorbers for solar energy applications

In this study, two different approaches for the design of broadband polarization-independent wide-angle metamaterial plasmonic absorbers (MPA) are presented. The proposed MPAs are made of periodic arrays of Nickel (Ni) or Wolfram (W) cubes. The top surfaces of the cubes are texturized using silicon dioxide (SiO₂). The proposed PMAs with two different optimized textures experience plasmonic resonance characteristics that enable near unity visible light absorption. The parametric studies carried on the proposed MPAs with the aid of 3D-FDTD method results in wide-angle near perfect absorption characteristic that is >?0.96 for all visible regimes. Additionally, the obtained results show almost perfect absorption of above 99% over the frequency ranges extending from?~?458 to?~?525 and?~?489 to?~?665 THz. Besides, numerical results demonstrate that the proposed PMAs also exhibit both polarization and angle independency for the whole visible regime. Further, the absorption characteristics of proposed MPAs near the infrared and ultraviolet regimes are investigated.

Pre-symplectic algebroids and their applications

In this paper, we introduce the notion of a pre-symplectic algebroid and show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between pre-symplectic algebroids and symplectic Lie algebroids. This result is the geometric generalization of the relation between left-symmetric algebras and symplectic (Frobenius) Lie algebras. Although pre-symplectic algebroids are not left-symmetric algebroids, they still can be viewed as the underlying structures of symplectic Lie algebroids. Then we study exact pre-symplectic algebroids and show that they are classified by the third cohomology group of a left-symmetric algebroid. Finally, we study para-complex pre-symplectic algebroids. Associated with a para-complex pre-symplectic algebroid, there is a pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebroid. The multiplication in a para-complex pre-symplectic algebroid characterizes the restriction to the Lagrangian subalgebroids of the Levi–Civita connection in the corresponding pseudo-Riemannian Lie algebroid.

Brane tilings and their applications

We review recent developments in the theory of brane tilings and four‐dimensional 𝒩 = 1 supersymmetric quiver gauge theories. This review consists of two parts. In part I, we describe foundations of brane tilings, emphasizing the physical interpretation of brane tilings as fivebrane systems. In part II, we discuss application of brane tilings to AdS/CFT correspondence and homological mirror symmetry. More topics, such as orientifold of brane tilings, phenomenological model building, similarities with BPS solitons in supersymmetric gauge theories, are also briefly discussed. This paper is a revised version of the author's master's thesis submitted to Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, the University of Tokyo on January 2008, and is based on his several papers and some works in progress [1–7].

Order-N methodologies and their applications

An exhaustive inventory of existing order-N methodologies for the calculation of the total energy as well as the atomic forces up to 1999 has been conducted. These methodologies are discussed in terms of the key approximations involved in each method. Emphasis is placed on the roles played by these approximations and how they affect the accuracy and efficiency of the method. Issues affecting the implementation of various order-N procedures, such as the choice of the tight-binding model in the order-N tight-binding approaches and the construction of the Hamiltonian in the order-N ab initio approaches, are also discussed. Some typical examples of applications of the order-N methods to study problems of realistic sizes are presented to provide a glimpse of the capability of utilizing the order-N methods to predict the stable structures and properties of complex systems with reduced symmetry. This review is expected to serve as a clearinghouse where a single resource is provided to help guide the reader to decide, among the existing methodologies, which method can best fulfill the task at hand.     

Double harmonic mappings of Riemannian manifolds and its applications to stationary axisymmetric gravitational fields

Harmonic mappings of Riemannian manifolds are discussed by a double complex function method, and the double-complex Ernst equation and the related Bäcklund transformations are naturally derived. Further, the Ernst solution and its dual solution are obtained by two different methods, respectively. Therefore, the results obtained by A. Eris are extended to a double form.     

Surface plasmon photodetectors and their applications

Surface plasmon photodetectors are of vigorous current interest. Such detectors typically combine a metallic structure that supports surface plasmons with a photodetection structure based on internal photoemission or electron‐hole pair creation. Detector architectures are highly varied, involving surface plasmons on planar metal waveguides, on metal gratings, on nano‐particles, ‐islands, or ‐antennas, or involving plasmon‐mediated transmission through one or many sub‐wavelength holes in a metal film. Properties inherent to surface plasmons, such as sub‐wavelength confinement and their ability to resonate on tiny metallic structures, are exploited to convey useful characteristics to detectors in addressing applications such as low‐noise high‐speed detection, single‐plasmon detection, near‐ and mid‐infrared imaging, photovoltaic solar energy conversion, and (bio)chemical sensing. The operating principles behind surface plasmon detectors are reviewed, the literature on the topic is surveyed, and avenues that appear promising are highlighted.
