Quantum theory without Hilbert spaces

description: Quantum theory does not only predict probabilities, but also relative phases for any experiment, that involves measurements of an ensemble of systems at different moments of time. We argue, that any operational formulation of quantum theory needs an algebra of observables and an object that incorporates the information about relative phases and probabilities. The latter is the (de)coherence functional, introduced by the consistent histories approach to quantum theory. The acceptance of relative phases as a primitive ingredient of any quantum theory, liberates us from the need to use a Hilbert space and non-commutative observables. It is shown, that quantum phenomena are adequately described by a theory of relative phases and non-additive probabilities on the classical phase space. The only difference lies on the type of observables that correspond to sharp measurements. This class of theories does not suffer from the consequences of Bell's theorem (it is not a theory of Kolmogorov probabilities) and Kochen- Specker's theorem (it has distributive "logic"). We discuss its predictability properties, the meaning of the classical limit and attempt to see if it can be experimentally distinguished from standard quantum theory. Our construction is operational and statistical, in the spirit of Kopenhagen, but makes plausible the existence of a realist, geometric theory for individual quantum systems.

description: Gas separation membranes can play a huge role in the future as a separation technology for hydrogen due to its poten-tial application as an environmentally friendly energy storage- or as a propulsion system for vehicles. Natural gasstreams are considered as a means of transportation for hydrogen as long as a suitable technology can be used toseparate hydrogen from the rest of the gas at the end of the process. Membrane technology appears as a promisingsolution to this.Interesting membrane materials, that can achieve the goal of selective H2/CH4 and H2/N2 gas separations, are 2D-basedzeolite membranes thanks to their defined pore aperture, and high flux due to their low thickness [7, 9]. An interesting2D zeolite for the separation of H2 from bigger gas molecules, such as CH4 or CO2, is the titanosilicate zeolite JDF-1 dueto the small pore aperture in the range of the hydrogen molecule [6]. Only a few works in the literature address the useof this specific zeolite [2, 5, 6]. Most of them focus on mixed matrix membrane (MMM) preparation by impregnation/in-filtration of the 2D zeolite and related nanosheet in a polymer matrix. Such preparation leads to the formation of com-posite membrane materials with aggregated zeolite nanomaterial in the polymer matrix. Despite their impressiveH2/CH4 selectivity of up to 128 [2] such MMMs exhibit inherent limitations such as their susceptibility to plasticization[3] and have usually a far bigger thickness up to the magnitude of several microns [1, 4, 8].In this work, a new generation of 2D-based zeolite membranes made of titanosilicate nanosheets was developed directlyon porous ceramic supports (Fig. 1). The preparation of these membranes requires the controlled deposition ofnanosheets followed by the in-situ surface polymerization of a thin polyimide network to cover the defects and enhancethe separation performance of the membrane. Relevant characterization methods were deployed to investigate themorphology and composition of the membrane and the separation performance was investigated using gas permeationmeasurements under pressure gradient.
Critical Magnetic Field Strength for Suppression of the Richtmyer-Meshkov Instability in Plasmas

description: The critical strength of a magnetic field required for the suppression of the Richtmyer-Meshkov instability (RMI) is investigated numerically by using a two-dimensional single-mode analysis. For the cases of MHD parallel shocks, the RMI can be stabilized as a result of the extraction of vorticity from the interface. A useful formula describing a critical condition for MHD RMI has been introduced, and which is successfully confirmed by the direct numerical simulations. The critical field strength is found to be largely depending on the Mach number of the incident shock. If the shock is strong enough, even low-$β$ plasmas can be subject to the growth of the RMI.

Using Sound to Represent Uncertainty in Spatial Data

description: Using Sound to Represent Uncertainty in Spatial DatabyNicholas Edward Bearman

Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of East Anglia, NorwichSchool of Environmental SciencesJanuary 2013

description: There is a limit to the amount of spatial data that can be shown visually in an effective manner, particularly when the data sets are extensive or complex. Using sound to represent some of these data (sonification) is a way of avoiding visual overload. This thesis creates a conceptual model showing how sonification can be used to represent spatial data and evaluates a number of elements within the conceptual model. These are examined in three different case studies to assess the effectiveness of the sonifications.Current methods of using sonification to represent spatial data have been restricted by the technology available and have had very limited user testing. While existing research shows that sonification can be done, it does not show whether it is an effective and useful method of representing spatial data to the end user. A number of prototypes show how spatial data can be sonified, but only a small handful of these have performed any user testing beyond the authors’ immediate colleagues (where n > 4). This thesis creates and evaluates sonification prototypes, which represent uncertainty using three different case studies of spatial data. Each case study is evaluated by a significant user group (between 45 and 71 individuals) who completed a task based evaluation with the sonification tool, as well as reporting qualitatively their views on the effectiveness and usefulness of the sonification method.For all three case studies, using sound to reinforce information shown visually results in more effective performance from the majority of the participants than traditional visual methods. Participants who were familiar with the dataset were much more effective at using the sonification than those who were not and an interactive sonification which requires significant involvement from the user was much more effective than a static sonification, which did not provide significant user engagement. Using sounds with a clear and easily understood scale (such as piano notes) was important to achieve an effective sonification. These findings are used to improve the conceptual model developed earlier in this thesis and highlight areas for future research.
The quantum bit commitment theorem

description: Unconditionally secure two-party bit commitment based solely on the principles of quantum mechanics (without exploiting special relativistic signalling constraints, or principles of general relativity or thermodynamics) has been shown to be impossible, but the claim is repeatedly challenged. The quantum bit commitment theorem is reviewed here and the central conceptual point, that an `Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen' attack or cheating strategy can always be applied, is clarified. The question of whether following such a cheating strategy can ever be disadvantageous to the cheater is considered and answered in the negative. There is, indeed, no loophole in the theorem.

Non-classical behavior of atoms in an interferometer

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: We have studied the properties of the non-classical behavior of atoms in a double-slit interferometer. An indication of this behavior for metastable helium was reported by Kurtsiefer, Pfau and Mlynek [Nature 386, 150 (1997)] showing distinctive negative values of the Wigner function, which was reconstructed from the measured diffraction data. Our approach to explain this non-classical behavior is based on the de Broglie-Bohm-Vigier-Selleri understanding of the wave-particle duality and compatible statistical interpretation of the atomic wave function. It follows from the results that the atomic motion is non-classical because it does not obey the laws of classical mechanics. However, there is no evidence that this atomic behavior violates the classical probability law of the addition of probabilities.

description: We derive multipolar equations of motion for gravitational theories with general nonminimal coupling in spacetimes admitting torsion. Our very general findings allow for the systematic testing of whole classes of theories by means of extended test bodies. One peculiar feature of certain subclasses of nonminimal theories turns out to be their sensitivity to post-Riemannian spacetime structures even in experiments without microstructured test matter.

Probabilities and Quantum Reality: Are There Correlata?
Creators: name: Griffiths, Robert B.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Any attempt to introduce probabilities into quantum mechanics faces difficulties due to the mathematical structure of Hilbert space, as reflected in Birkhoff and von Neumann's proposal for a quantum logic. The (consistent or decoherent) histories solution is provided by its single framework rule, an approach that includes conventional (Copenhagen) quantum theory as a special case. Mermin's Ithaca interpretation addresses the same problem by defining probabilities which make no reference to a sample space or event algebra (``correlations without correlata''). But this leads to severe conceptual difficulties, which almost inevitably couple quantum theory to unresolved problems of human consciousness. Using histories allows a sharper quantum description than is possible with a density matrix, suggesting that the latter provides an ensemble rather than an irreducible single-system description as claimed by Mermin. The histories approach satisfies the first five of Mermin's desiderata for a good interpretation of quantum mechanics, including Einstein locality, but the Ithaca interpretation seems to have difficulty with the first (independence of observers) and the third (describing individual systems).

description: We aim to give a full description of the distribution and location of dense molecular clouds in the giant molecular cloud complex W43. It has previously been identified as one of the most massive star-forming regions in our Galaxy. To trace the moderately dense molecular clouds in the W43 region, we initiated an IRAM 30m large program, named W43-HERO, covering a large dynamic range of scales (from 0.3 to 140 pc). We obtained on-the-fly-maps in 13CO (2-1) and C18O (2-1) with a high spectral resolution of 0.1 km/s and a spatial resolution of 12". These maps cover an area of ~1.5 square degrees and include the two main clouds of W43, as well as the lower density gas surrounding them. A comparison with Galactic models and previous distance calculations confirms the location of W43 near the tangential point of the Scutum arm at a distance from the Sun of approximately 6 kpc. The resulting intensity cubes of the observed region are separated into sub-cubes, centered on single clouds which are then analyzed in detail. The optical depth, excitation temperature, and H2 column density maps are derived out of the 13CO and C18O data. These results are then compared with those derived from Herschel dust maps. The mass of a typical cloud is several 10^4 solar masses while the total mass in the dense molecular gas (>100 cm^-3) in W43 is found to be about 1.9e6 solar masses. Probability distribution functions obtained from column density maps derived from molecular line data and Herschel imaging show a log-normal distribution for low column densities and a power-law tail for high densities. A flatter slope for the molecular line data PDF may imply that those selectively show the gravitationally collapsing gas.

description: We estimate the average fractional polarisation at 143, 217 and 353 GHz of a sample of 4697 extragalactic dusty sources by applying stacking technique. The sample is selected from the second version of the Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources at 857 GHz, avoiding the region inside the Planck Galactic mask (fsky ~ 60 per cent). We recover values for the mean fractional polarisation at 217 and 353 GHz of (3.10 \pm 0.75) per cent and (3.65 \pm 0.66) per cent, respectively, whereas at 143 GHz we give a tentative value of (3.52 \pm 2.48) per cent. We discuss the possible origin of the measured polarisation, comparing our new estimates with those previously obtained from a sample of radio sources. We test different distribution functions and we conclude that the fractional polarisation of dusty sources is well described by a log-normal distribution, as determined in the radio band studies. For this distribution we estimate μ_{217GHz} = 0.3 \pm 0.5 (that would correspond to a median fractional polarisation of Π_{med} = (1.3 \pm 0.7) per cent) and μ_{353GHz} = 0.7 \pm 0.4 (Π_{med} = (2.0 \pm 0.8) per cent), σ_{217GHz} = 1.3 \pm 0.2 and σ_{353GHz} = 1.1 \pm 0.2. With these values we estimate the source number counts in polarisation and the contribution given by these sources to the CMB B-mode angular power spectrum at 217, 353, 600 and 800 GHz. We conclude that extragalactic dusty sources might be an important contaminant for the primordial B-mode at frequencies > 217 GHz.

Gravitational and distributed heating effects of a cD galaxy on the hydrodynamical structure of its host cluster

description: We investigate the effects of a cD galaxy's gravity and AGN heating of the host galaxy cluster. We consider a standard prescription for the hydrodynamics, with the structures determined by mass continuity, momentum and energy conservation equations in spherical symmetry. The cluster comprises a dark matter halo (DM) and ionised X-ray emitting intracluster gas (ICM), which jointly determine the gravitational potential. The cD galaxy is an additive gravitational potential component. The DM assumes a polytropic equation of state (determined by its microphysics), which could be non-radiative self-interacting particles or more exotically interacting particles. The AGN provides distributed heating, counteracting radiative cooling. Stationary density and velocity dispersion profiles are obtained by numerically integrating the hydrodynamic equations with appropriate boundary conditions. The minimum gas temperature in the cluster core is higher when a cD galaxy is present than when it is absent. The solutions also yield a point-like mass concentration exceeding a minimum mass: presumably the AGN's supermassive black hole (SMBH). Consistency with observed SMBH masses constrains the possible DM equations of state. The constraints are looser when a cD galaxy is present. Distributed (AGN) heating alters cluster global properties, and also reduces the lower limits for the central point-mass, for the preferred DM models in which the dark particles have greater heat capacity than point particles. Eluding these constraints would require dominant non-spherical or anisotropic effects (e.g. bulk rotation, non-radial streaming, asymmetric lumps, or a strong magnetic field).

description: Here we present the microwave characterization of microstrip resonators made from aluminum and niobium inside a 3D microwave waveguide. In the low temperature, low power limit internal quality factors of up to one million were reached. We found a good agreement to models predicting conductive losses and losses to two level systems for increasing temperature. The setup presented here is appealing for testing materials and structures, as it is free of wire bonds and offers a well controlled microwave environment. In combination with transmon qubits, these resonators serve as a building block for a novel circuit QED architecture inside a rectangular waveguide.

We find the angular distribution of the Larmor radiation, the constant power, and the intensity in the maximal direction. It is found that the intensity of uniformly accelerated cusp motion scales like non-uniformly accelerated synchrotron radiation. We confirm the exact vacuum excitation spectra of quantized field detectors on the world line.

description: Our aim is to study the role of gravitational stratification on the propagation of CMEs. In particular, we assess how it influences the speed and shape of CMEs and under what conditions the flux rope ejection becomes a CME or when it is quenched. We ran a set of MHD simulations that adopt an eruptive initial magnetic configuration that has already been shown to be suitable for a flux rope ejection. We varied the temperature of the backgroud corona and the intensity of the initial magnetic field to tune the gravitational stratification and the amount of ejected magnetic flux. We used an automatic technique to track the expansion and the propagation of the magnetic flux rope in the MHD simulations. From the analysis of the parameter space, we evaluate the role of gravitational stratification on the CME speed and expansion. Our study shows that gravitational stratification plays a significant role in determining whether the flux rope ejection will turn into a full CME or whether the magnetic flux rope will stop in the corona. The CME speed is affected by the background corona where it travels faster when the corona is colder and when the initial magnetic field is more intense. The fastest CME we reproduce in our parameter space travels at 850 km/s. Moreover, the background gravitational stratification plays a role in the side expansion of the CME, and we find that when the background temperature is higher, the resulting shape of the CME is flattened more. Our study shows that although the initiation mechanisms of the CME are purely magnetic, the background coronal plasma plays a key role in the CME propagation, and full MHD models should be applied when one focusses especially on the production of a CME from a flux rope ejection.

description: Quantization of the Teichmüller space of a punctured Riemann surface $S$ is an approach to $3$-dimensional quantum gravity, and is a prototypical example of quantization of cluster varieties. Any simple loop $γ$ in $S$ gives rise to a natural trace-of-monodromy function $\mathbb{I}(γ)$ on the Teichmüller space. For any ideal triangulation $Δ$ of $S$, this function $\mathbb{I}(γ)$ is a Laurent polynomial in the square-roots of the exponentiated shear coordinates for the arcs of $Δ$. An important problem was to construct a quantization of this function $\mathbb{I}(γ)$, namely to replace it by a noncommutative Laurent polynomial in the quantum variables. This problem, which is closely related to the framed protected spin characters in physics, has been solved by Allegretti and Kim using Bonahon and Wong's ${\rm SL}_2$ quantum trace for skein algebras, and by Gabella using Gaiotto, Moore and Neitzke's Seiberg-Witten curves, spectral networks, and writhe of links. We show that these two solutions to the quantization problem coincide. We enhance Gabella's solution and show that it is a twist of the Bonahon-Wong quantum trace.

Wavefunction Collapse and Random Walk

description: Wavefunction collapse models modify Schrodinger's equation so that it describes the rapid evolution of a superposition of macroscopically distinguishable states to one of them. This provides a phenomenological basis for a physical resolution to the so-called "measurement problem." Such models have experimentally testable differences from standard quantum theory. The most well developed such model at present is the Continuous Spontaneous Localization (CSL) model in which a fluctuating classical field interacts with particles to cause collapse. One "side effect" of this interaction is that the field imparts momentum to particles, causing a small blob of matter to undergo random walk. Here we explore this in order to supply predictions which could be experimentally tested. We examine the translational diffusion of a sphere and a disc, and the rotational diffusion of a disc, according to CSL. For example, we find that a disc of radius 2 cdot 10^{-5} cm and thickness 0.5 cdot 10^{-5} cm diffuses through 2 pi rad in about 70sec (this assumes the "standard" CSL parameter values). The comparable rms diffusion of standard quantum theory is smaller than this by a factor 10^-3. At the reported pressure of < 5 cdot10^{-17} Torr, achieved at 4.2^{circ} K, the mean time between air molecule collisions with the disc is approximately 45min (and the diffusion caused by photon collisons is utterly negligible). This is ample time for observation of the putative CSL diffusion over a wide range of parameters. This encourages consideration of how such an experiment may actually be performed, and the paper closes with some thoughts on this subject

description: This paper presents a new result concerning the distribution of 2-Selmer ranks in the quadratic twist family of an elliptic curve over an arbitrary number field K with a single point of order two that does not have a cyclic 4-isogeny defined over its two-division field. We prove that at least half of all the quadratic twists of such an elliptic curve have arbitrarily large 2-Selmer rank, showing that the distribution of 2-Selmer ranks in the quadratic twist family of such an elliptic curve differs from the distribution of 2-Selmer ranks in the quadratic twist family of an elliptic curve having either no rational two-torsion or full rational two-torsion.

description: In this work, we develop new data augmentation algorithms for Bayesian analysis of directional data using the von Mises-Fisher distribution in arbitrary dimensions. The approach leads to a new class of distributions, called the Modified Pólya-Gamma distribution, which we construct in detail. The proposed data augmentation strategies circumvent the need for analytic approximations to integration, numerical integration, or Metropolis-Hastings for the corresponding posterior inference. Simulations and real data examples are presented to demonstrate the applicability and to apprise the performance of the proposed procedures.

description: How many words are needed to define all the words in a dictionary? Graph-theoretic analysis reveals that about 10% of a dictionary is a unique Kernel of words that define one another and all the rest, but this is not the smallest such subset. The Kernel consists of one huge strongly connected component (SCC), about half its size, the Core, surrounded by many small SCCs, the Satellites. Core words can define one another but not the rest of the dictionary. The Kernel also contains many overlapping Minimal Grounding Sets (MGSs), each about the same size as the Core, each part-Core, part-Satellite. MGS words can define all the rest of the dictionary. They are learned earlier, more concrete and more frequent than the rest of the dictionary. Satellite words, not correlated with age or frequency, are less concrete (more abstract) words that are also needed for full lexical power.

Reliable reconstruction of HIV-1 whole genome haplotypes reveals clonal interference and genetic hitchhiking among immune escape variants

description: Following transmission, HIV-1 evolves into a diverse population, and next generation sequencing enables us to detect variants occurring at low frequencies. Studying viral evolution at the level of whole genomes was hitherto not possible because next generation sequencing delivers relatively short reads. We here provide a proof of principle that whole HIV-1 genomes can be reliably reconstructed from short reads, and use this to study the selection of immune escape mutations at the level of whole genome haplotypes. Using realistically simulated HIV-1 populations, we demonstrate that reconstruction of complete genome haplotypes is feasible with high fidelity. We do not reconstruct all genetically distinct genomes, but each reconstructed haplotype represents one or more of the quasispecies in the HIV-1 population. We then reconstruct 30 whole genome haplotypes from published short sequence reads sampled longitudinally from a single HIV-1 infected patient. We confirm the reliability of the reconstruction by validating our predicted haplotype genes with single genome amplification sequences, and by comparing haplotype frequencies with observed epitope escape frequencies. Phylogenetic analysis shows that the HIV-1 population undergoes selection driven evolution, with successive replacement of the viral population by novel dominant strains. We demonstrate that immune escape mutants evolve in a dependent manner with various mutations hitchhiking along with others. As a consequence of this clonal interference, selection coefficients have to be estimated for complete haplotypes and not for individual immune escapes.

description: Studying optical properties of organic materials is important due to the rapid development of organic light-emitting diodes, solar cells, and photon detectors. Here for the first time we have performed tight-binding calculations for singlet excitons, in combination with first-principles calculations of the excited states in molecular dimers, to describe the optical properties of a zinc-phthalocyanine one-dimensional molecular chain. We have included the intra-molecule and charge-transfer excitations and the coupling between them. Our calculations have successfully interpreted a body of experimental UV-Vis optical spectra of transition-metal phthalocyanines. Compared with the previous ab initio calculations for a molecular dimer, the optical absorptions at the split peaks of the Q-bands can be comparable, which indicates the importance of the coupling between the intra-molecular and charge-transfer excitons.

description: It has been known since the pioneering paper of Mark Kac, that the asymptotics of Fredholm determinants can be studied using probabilistic methods. We demonstrate the efficacy of Kac' approach by studying the Fredholm Pfaffian describing the statistics of both non-Hermitian random matrices and annihilating Brownian motions. Namely, we establish the following two results. Firstly, let $\sqrt{N}+λ_{max}$ be the largest real eigenvalue of a random $N\times N$ matrix with independent $N(0,1)$ entries (the `real Ginibre matrix'). Consider the limiting $N\rightarrow \infty$ distribution $\mathbb{P}[λ_{max}<-L]$ of the shifted maximal real eigenvalue $λ_{max}$. Then \[ \lim_{L\rightarrow \infty} e^{\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2π}}ζ\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)L} \mathbb{P}\left(λ_{max}<-L\right) =e^{C_e}, \] where $ζ$ is the Riemann zeta-function and \[ C_e=\frac{1}{2}\log 2+\frac{1}{4π}\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{n} \left(-π+\sum_{m=1}^{n-1}\frac{1}{\sqrt{m(n-m)}}\right). \] Secondly, let $X_t^{(max)}$ be the position of the rightmost particle at time $t$ for a system of annihilating Brownian motions (ABM's) started from every point of $\mathbb{R}_{-}$. Then \[ \lim_{L\rightarrow \infty} e^{\frac{1}{2\sqrt{2π}}ζ\left(\frac{3}{2}\right)L} \mathbb{P}\left(\frac{X_{t}^{(max)}}{\sqrt{4t}}<-L\right) =e^{C_e}. \] These statements are a sharp counterpart of our previous results improved by computing the terms of order $L^{0}$ in the asymptotic expansion of the corresponding Fredholm Pfaffian.
