Confinement, deconfinement, and bound states in the spin-$1$ and spin-$3/2$ generalizations of the Majumdar–Ghosh chain

Kavli Affiliate: Natalia Chepiga | First 5 Authors: Aman Sharma, Aman Sharma, , , | Summary: We investigate the nature of low-energy excitations in a spin chain with antiferrmomagnetic nearest-neighbor $J_1$, next-nearest-neighbor $J_2$, and three-site $J_3$ interactions using the time-dependent density matrix renormalization group and the single mode approximation techniques. In the absence of the […]

Depth-Aware Super-Resolution via Distance-Adaptive Variational Formulation

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Wang | First 5 Authors: Tianhao Guo, Tianhao Guo, , , | Summary: Single image super-resolution traditionally assumes spatially-invariant degradation models, yet real-world imaging systems exhibit complex distance-dependent effects including atmospheric scattering, depth-of-field variations, and perspective distortions. This fundamental limitation necessitates spatially-adaptive reconstruction strategies that explicitly incorporate geometric scene understanding for optimal […]
