Tunable entanglement distillation of spatially correlated down-converted photons
We report on a new technique for entanglement distillation of the bipartite
continuous variable state of spatially correlated photons generated in the
spontaneous parametric down-conversion process (SPDC), where tunable
non-Gaussian operations are implemented and the post-processed entanglement is
certified in real-time using a single-photon sensitive electron multiplying CCD
(EMCCD) camera. The local operations are performed using non-Gaussian filters
modulated into a programmable spatial light modulator and, by using the EMCCD
camera for actively recording the probability distributions of the
twin-photons, one has fine control of the Schmidt number of the distilled
state. We show that even simple non-Gaussian filters can be finely tuned to a
~67% net gain of the initial entanglement generated in the SPDC process.Comment: 12 pages, 6 figure
On Matrix Superpotential and Three-Component Normal Modes
We consider the supersymmetric quantum mechanics (SUSY QM) with three-
component normal modes for the Bogomol'nyi-Prasad-Sommerfield (BPS) states. An
explicit form of the SUSY QM matrix superpotential is presented and the
corresponding three-component bosonic zero-mode eigenfunction is investigated.Comment: 17 pages, no figure. Paper accepted for publication in Journal of

Exact Lyapunov Exponent for Infinite Products of Random Matrices
In this work, we give a rigorous explicit formula for the Lyapunov exponent
for some binary infinite products of random real matrices. All
these products are constructed using only two types of matrices, and ,
which are chosen according to a stochastic process. The matrix is singular,
namely its determinant is zero. This formula is derived by using a particular
decomposition for the matrix , which allows us to write the Lyapunov
exponent as a sum of convergent series. Finally, we show with an example that
the Lyapunov exponent is a discontinuous function of the given parameter.Comment: 1 pages, CPT-93/P.2974,late
Clustering, Angular Size and Dark Energy
The influence of dark matter inhomogeneities on the angular size-redshift
test is investigated for a large class of flat cosmological models driven by
dark energy plus a cold dark matter component (XCDM model). The results are
presented in two steps. First, the mass inhomogeneities are modeled by a
generalized Zeldovich-Kantowski-Dyer-Roeder (ZKDR) distance which is
characterized by a smoothness parameter and a power index ,
and, second, we provide a statistical analysis to angular size data for a large
sample of milliarcsecond compact radio sources. As a general result, we have
found that the parameter is totally unconstrained by this sample of
angular diameter data.Comment: 9 pages, 7 figures, accepted in Physical Review
