New transformation of Wigner operator in phase space quantum mechanics for the two-mode entangled case
As a natural extension of Fan's paper (arXiv: 0903.1769vl [quant-ph]) by
employing the formula of operators' Weyl ordering expansion and the bipartite
entangled state representation we find new two-fold complex integration
transformation about the Wigner operator (in its entangled form) in phase space
quantum mechanics and its inverse transformation. In this way, some operator
ordering problems can be solved and the contents of phase space quantum
mechanics can be enriched.Comment: 8 pages, 0 figure
Creating stable molecular condensate using a generalized Raman adiabatic passage scheme
We study the Feshbach resonance assisted stimulated adiabatic passage of an
effective coupling field for creating stable molecules from atomic Bose
condensate. By exploring the properties of the coherent population trapping
state, we show that, contrary to the previous belief, mean-field shifts need
not to limit the conversion efficiency as long as one chooses an adiabatic
passage route that compensates the collision mean-field phase shifts and avoids
the dynamical unstable regime.Comment: 4+\epsilon pages, 3 figure
Re-embedding a 1-Plane Graph into a Straight-line Drawing in Linear Time
Thomassen characterized some 1-plane embedding as the forbidden configuration
such that a given 1-plane embedding of a graph is drawable in straight-lines if
and only if it does not contain the configuration [C. Thomassen, Rectilinear
drawings of graphs, J. Graph Theory, 10(3), 335-341, 1988].
In this paper, we characterize some 1-plane embedding as the forbidden
configuration such that a given 1-plane embedding of a graph can be re-embedded
into a straight-line drawable 1-plane embedding of the same graph if and only
if it does not contain the configuration. Re-embedding of a 1-plane embedding
preserves the same set of pairs of crossing edges.
We give a linear-time algorithm for finding a straight-line drawable 1-plane
re-embedding or the forbidden configuration.Comment: Appears in the Proceedings of the 24th International Symposium on

Interlayer Exchange Coupling Beyond the Proximity Force Approximation
Ion bombardment has been shown to be capable of enhancing the interlayer
exchange coupling in a trilayer system that exhibits giant magnetoresistance.
We demonstrate that this phenomenon can be derived from the phase coherence
among scattered paths within the two rough interfaces when their topographies
are correlated. In the case of mild corrugations, our method reproduces the
predictions by the proximity force approximation which does not consider the
interference. When the characteristic Fourier conjugate of the tomography
becomes large and comparable to the Fermi momentum, interesting new features
arise and can only be captured by our more general approach. Among our
findings, the scenario of an enhanced interlayer exchange coupling due to the
interface roughness is explained, along with how it depends on the sample
parameters. An additional channel for the resonant transmission is identified
due to extra scattering paths from the roughness.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, submitted to PRB (2010

Gravitational lensing statistical properties in general FRW cosmologies with dark energy component(s): analytic results
Various astronomical observations have been consistently making a strong case
for the existence of a component of dark energy with negative pressure in the
universe. It is now necessary to take the dark energy component(s) into account
in gravitational lensing statistics and other cosmological tests. By using the
comoving distance we derive analytic but simple expressions for the optical
depth of multiple image, the expected value of image separation and the
probability distribution of image separation caused by an assemble of singular
isothermal spheres in general FRW cosmological models with dark energy
component(s). We also present the kinematical and dynamical properties of these
kinds of cosmological models and calculate the age of the universe and the
distance measures, which are often used in classical cosmological tests. In
some cases we are able to give formulae that are simpler than those found
elsewhere in the literature, which could make the cosmological tests for dark
energy component(s) more convenient.Comment: 14 pages, no figure, Latex fil
Gravitational Lensing Statistics as a Probe of Dark Energy
By using the comoving distance, we derive an analytic expression for the
optical depth of gravitational lensing, which depends on the redshift to the
source and the cosmological model characterized by the cosmic mass density
parameter , the dark energy density parameter and its
equation of state . It is shown that, the larger the
dark energy density is and the more negative its pressure is, the higher the
gravitational lensing probability is. This fact can provide an independent
constraint for dark energy.Comment: 9 pages, 2 figure
Quantum Speed Limit for Perfect State Transfer in One Dimension
The basic idea of spin chain engineering for perfect quantum state transfer
(QST) is to find a set of coupling constants in the Hamiltonian, such that a
particular state initially encoded on one site will evolve freely to the
opposite site without any dynamical controls. The minimal possible evolution
time represents a speed limit for QST. We prove that the optimal solution is
the one simulating the precession of a spin in a static magnetic field. We also
argue that, at least for solid-state systems where interactions are local, it
is more realistic to characterize the computation power by the couplings than
the initial energy.Comment: 5 pages, no figure; improved versio
