    Galilean Islands in Eternally Inflating Background

    Full text link
    We show that the observational universe may emerge classically from a de Sitter background with low energy scale. We find, after calculating the curvature perturbation, that the resulting scenario is actually a style of the eternal inflation scenario, in which some regions will go through the slowly expanding Galilean genesis phase with the rapidly increasing energy density and become island universes, while other regions are still eternally inflating, which will make the room for more island universes to emerge.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figs, refs added, figs and discussions improved, to publish in PR

    Controlling quantum state transfer in spin chain with the confined field

    Full text link
    As a demonstration of the spectrum-parity matching condition (SPMC) for quantum state transfer, we investigate the propagation of single-magnon state in the Heisenberg chain in the confined external tangent magnetic field analytically and numerically. It shows that the initial Gaussian wave packet can be retrieved at the counterpart location near-perfectly over a longer distance if the dispersion relation of the system meets the SPMC approximately.Comment: 9 pages, 8 figure
