General scalar products in the arbitrary six-vertex model
In this work we use the algebraic Bethe ansatz to derive the general scalar
product in the six-vertex model for generic Boltzmann weights. We performed
this calculation using only the unitarity property, the Yang-Baxter algebra and
the Yang-Baxter equation. We have derived a recurrence relation for the scalar
product. The solution of this relation was written in terms of the domain wall
partition functions. By its turn, these partition functions were also obtained
for generic Boltzmann weights, which provided us with an explicit expression
for the general scalar product.Comment: 24 page
Quantum key distribution with higher-order alphabets using spatially-encoded qudits
We propose and demonstrate a quantum key distribution scheme in higher-order
-dimensional alphabets using spatial degrees of freedom of photons. Our
implementation allows for the transmission of 4.56 bits per sifted photon,
while providing improved security: an intercept-resend attack on all photons
would induce an error rate of 0.47. Using our system, it should be possible to
send more than a byte of information per sifted photon.Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures. Replaced with published versio
THE ADO METHOD FOR SOLVING ONE-DIMENSIONAL DEEP-PENETRATION TRANSPORT PROBLEMS
In this work, the Analytical Discrete Ordinate method (ADO method) is used to solve deep-penetration transport problems in one-dimensional Cartesian geometry, subject to isotropic and linear anisotropic scattering effects. The regime is considered permanent, the media are homogeneous, and the fluxes are caused by sources located on the boundaries of the domain. In addition, the energy fluctuations will be considered as not significant, characterizing the phenomena as monoenergetic problems. In order to validate the code, method and provide benchmark results, some test problems will be treated and results will be discussed. In particular, the ADO method generated fairly accurate results when compared to other methods based on SN approaches, at a relatively low computational cost

Observation of twin beam correlations and quadrature entanglement by frequency doubling in a two-port resonator
We demonstrate production of quantum correlated and entangled beams by second
harmonic generation in a nonlinear resonator with two output ports. The output
beams at wavelength 428.5 nm exhibit 0.9 dB of nonclassical intensity
correlations and 0.3 dB of entanglement.Comment: 5 pages, 7 figure
A conjugate for the Bargmann representation
In the Bargmann representation of quantum mechanics, physical states are
mapped into entire functions of a complex variable z*, whereas the creation and
annihilation operators and play the role of
multiplication and differentiation with respect to z*, respectively. In this
paper we propose an alternative representation of quantum states, conjugate to
the Bargmann representation, where the roles of and
are reversed, much like the roles of the position and momentum operators in
their respective representations. We derive expressions for the inner product
that maintain the usual notion of distance between states in the Hilbert space.
Applications to simple systems and to the calculation of semiclassical
propagators are presented.Comment: 15 page

Small Deviations from Gaussianity and The Galaxy Cluster Abundance Evolution
We raise the hypothesis that the density fluctuations field which originates
the growth of large scale structures is a combination of two or more
distributions. By applying the statistical analysis of finite mixture
distributions to a specific combination of Gaussian plus non-Gaussian random
fields, we studied the case where just a small departure from Gaussianity is
allowed. Our results suggest that even a very small level of non-Gaussianity
may introduce significant changes in the cluster abundance evolution rate.Comment: 10 pages with 2 figures, accepted for publication in Ap
