Self-dispersion-managed adiabatic frequency conversion

Kavli Affiliate: Jeffrey Moses | First 5 Authors: Dylan Heberle, Noah Flemens, Connor Davis, Philippe Lassonde, Adrien Leblanc | Summary: Dispersion management of few-cycle pulses is crucial for ultrafast optics and photonics. Often, nontrivial dispersion is compensated using complex optical systems or minimized through careful design of waveguides. Here, we present dispersion-managed adiabatic frequency conversion […]

Wigner’s Theorem for stabilizer states and quantum designs

Kavli Affiliate: David Gross | First 5 Authors: Valentin Obst, Arne Heimendahl, Tanmay Singal, David Gross, | Summary: We describe the symmetry group of the stabilizer polytope for any number $n$ of systems and any prime local dimension $d$. In the qubit case, the symmetry group coincides with the linear and anti-linear Clifford operations. In […]

Resistance Distribution of Decoherent Quantum Hall-Superconductor Edges

Kavli Affiliate: Jing Wang | First 5 Authors: Yichen Hu, Jing Wang, Biao Lian, , | Summary: We study the probability distribution of the resistance, or equivalently the charge transmission, of a decoherent quantum Hall-superconductor edge, with the decoherence coming from metallic puddles along the edge. Such metallic puddles may originate from magnetic vortex cores […]

Survival of the Fittest Representation: A Case Study with Modular Addition

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | First 5 Authors: Xiaoman Delores Ding, Zifan Carl Guo, Eric J. Michaud, Ziming Liu, Max Tegmark | Summary: When a neural network can learn multiple distinct algorithms to solve a task, how does it "choose" between them during training? To approach this question, we take inspiration from ecology: when multiple […]

Ultraheavy Ultrahigh-Energy Cosmic Rays

Kavli Affiliate: Shunsaku Horiuchi | First 5 Authors: B. Theodore Zhang, Kohta Murase, Nick Ekanger, Mukul Bhattacharya, Shunsaku Horiuchi | Summary: We investigate the propagation of ultraheavy (UH) nuclei as ultrahigh-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs). We show that their energy loss lengths at $lesssim300$~EeV are significantly longer than those of protons and intermediate-mass nuclei, and that […]
