{C \ell{^\ast_3}} Invariance of the Dirac Equation and Electromagnetism

In order to obtain a form invariance of the Dirac wave, the relativistic quantum theory uses ${{\rm SL}(2, \mathbb{C})}$ , a subset of the Clifford algebra C? ₃ of the 3-dimensional physical space. In Dirac theory and electromagnetism, we study a replacement of this invariance group by the full group ${C \ell{^\ast_3}}$ consisting of all invertible elements in C? ₃. We extend this invariance to systems of identical particles. We explain how geometry linked to the Dirac wave implies existence of a second space-time variety, and we review its consequences to particle physics.     

Variable metric bundle methods: From conceptual to implementable forms

To minimize a convex function, we combine Moreau-Yosida regularizations, quasi-Newton matrices and bundling mechanisms. First we develop conceptual forms using “reversal” quasi-Newton formulae and we state their global and local convergence. Then, to produce implementable versions, we incorporate a bundle strategy together with a “curve-search”. No convergence results are given for the implementable versions; however some numerical illustrations show their good behaviour even for large-scale problems.     

Tri-polarized MIMO systems in real-world channels: Channel investigation and performance analysis

Polarized multi-antenna systems are an effective solution for reducing inter-antenna spacing while still maintaining low inter-antenna correlation. Traditionally, only dual-polarized antenna systems are used for polarized transceivers. In this paper, tri-polarized antenna systems are investigated. Starting from the polarization mechanisms in the wireless propagation channel, it is shown that dual-polarized MIMO systems show high sensitivity to the transmitter and receiver orientation, which may be very critical in practical applications. Tri-polarized MIMO systems are introduced as a solution to obtain a robust MIMO performances, which are independent of the transmitter and receiver orientation. The performances of dual- and tri-polarized MIMO systems are evaluated on real-world measured channels, and the limits of each of these systems is highlighted.     

Dynamical Localization for Unitary Anderson Models

This paper establishes dynamical localization properties of certain families of unitary random operators on the d-dimensional lattice in various regimes. These operators are generalizations of one-dimensional physical models of quantum transport and draw their name from the analogy with the discrete Anderson model of solid state physics. They consist in a product of a deterministic unitary operator and a random unitary operator. The deterministic operator has a band structure, is absolutely continuous and plays the role of the discrete Laplacian. The random operator is diagonal with elements given by i.i.d. random phases distributed according to some absolutely continuous measure and plays the role of the random potential. In dimension one, these operators belong to the family of CMV-matrices in the theory of orthogonal polynomials on the unit circle. We implement the method of Aizenman-Molchanov to prove exponential decay of the fractional moments of the Green function for the unitary Anderson model in the following three regimes: In any dimension, throughout the spectrum at large disorder and near the band edges at arbitrary disorder and, in dimension one, throughout the spectrum at arbitrary disorder. We also prove that exponential decay of fractional moments of the Green function implies dynamical localization, which in turn implies spectral localization. These results complete the analogy with the self-adjoint case where dynamical localization is known to be true in the same three regimes.     

A boundary-value problem for the stationary vlasov-poisson equations: The plane diode

The stationary Vlasov-Poisson boundary value problem in a spatially one-dimensional domain is studied. The equations describe the flow of electrons in a plane diode. Existence is proved when the boundary condition (the cathode emission distribution) is a bounded function which decays super-linearly or a Dirac mass. Uniqueness is proved for (physically realistic) boundary conditions which are decreasing functions of the velocity variable. It is shown that uniqueness does not always hold for the Dirac mass boundary conditions.
