Geometries for Possible Kinematics
The algebras for all possible Lorentzian and Euclidean kinematics with
isotropy except static ones are re-classified. The geometries
for algebras are presented by contraction approach. The relations among the
geometries are revealed. Almost all geometries fall into pairs. There exists correspondence in each pair. In the viewpoint of
differential geometry, there are only 9 geometries, which have right signature
and geometrical spatial isotropy. They are 3 relativistic geometries, 3
absolute-time geometries, and 3 absolute-space geometries.Comment: 40 pages, 7 figure
Plasmon assisted transmission of high dimensional orbital angular momentum entangled state
We present an experimental evidence that high dimensional orbital angular
momentum entanglement of a pair of photons can be survived after a
photon-plasmon-photon conversion. The information of spatial modes can be
coherently transmitted by surface plasmons. This experiment primarily studies
the high dimensional entangled systems based on surface plasmon with
subwavelength structures. It maybe useful in the investigation of spatial mode
properties of surface plasmon assisted transmission through subwavelength hole
arrays.Comment: 7 pages,6 figure
Theoretic Limits on the Equation of State Parameter of Quintessence
The value of scalar field coupled to gravity should be less than the Planck
scale in the consistent theory of quantum gravity. It provides a theoretic
constraint on the equation of state parameter for the quintessence. In some
cases our theoretic constraints are more stringent than the constraints from
the present experiments.Comment: 4 pages, 2 figures; minor corrections and refs adde
