Orthogonal Transform Multiplexing with Memoryless Nonlinearity: a Possible Alternative to Traditional Coded-Modulation Schemes
In this paper, we propose a novel joint coding-modulation technique based on
serial concatenation of orthogonal linear transform, such as discrete Fourier
transform (DFT) or Walsh-Hadamard transform (WHT), with memoryless
nonlinearity. We demonstrate that such a simple signal construction may exhibit
properties of a random code ensemble, as a result approaching channel capacity.
Our computer simulations confirm that if the decoder relies on a modified
approximate message passing algorithm, the proposed modulation technique
exhibits performance on par with state-of-the-art coded modulation schemes that
use capacity-approaching component codes. The proposed modulation scheme could
be used directly or as a pre-coder for a conventional orthogonal frequency
division multiplexing (OFDM) transmitter, resulting in a system possessing all
benefits of OFDM along with reduced peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR)
Computation of multiple functional integrals in quantum physics
AbstractThe new method of computation of multiple functional integrals of quantum physics is elaborated. The method is based on the numerical integration over complete separable metric spaces via approximations exact on a class of polynomial functionals of given degree. New approximation formulas for the functional integrals with respect to Gaussian measure are constructed. The convergence of approximations to an exact value of integral is proved, the estimate of the remainder is obtained. In the particular case of conditional Wiener measure the approximation formulas with the weight are derived. The method is applied to the study of the multidimensional Calogero model and to computation of the binding of nucleons in the nucleus of tritium
Relativistic spherical plasma waves
Tightly focused laser pulses as they diverge or converge in underdense plasma
can generate wake waves, having local structures that are spherical waves. Here
we report on theoretical study of relativistic spherical wake waves and their
properties, including wave breaking. These waves may be suitable as particle
injectors or as flying mirrors that both reflect and focus radiation, enabling
unique X-ray sources and nonlinear QED phenomena.Comment: 6 pages; 4 figure

Random data Cauchy theory for supercritical wave equations II : A global existence result
We prove that the subquartic wave equation on the three dimensional ball
, with Dirichlet boundary conditions admits global strong solutions for
a large set of random supercritical initial data in .
We obtain this result as a consequence of a general random data Cauchy theory
for supercritical wave equations developed in our previous work \cite{BT2} and
invariant measure considerations which allow us to obtain also precise large
time dynamical informations on our solutions
Stability of boron-doped graphene/copper interface: DFT, XPS and OSEE studies
Two different types of boron-doped graphene/copper interfaces synthesized
using two different flow rates of Ar through the bubbler containing the boron
source were studied. X-ray photoelectron spectra (XPS) and optically stimulated
electron emission (OSEE) measurements have demonstrated that boron-doped
graphene coating provides a high corrosion resistivity of Cu-substrate with the
light traces of the oxidation of carbon cover. The density functional theory
calculations suggest that for the case of substitutional (graphitic)
boron-defect only the oxidation near boron impurity is energetically favorable
and creation of the vacancies that can induce the oxidation of copper substrate
is energetically unfavorable. In the case of non-graphitic boron defects
oxidation of the area, a nearby impurity is metastable that not only prevent
oxidation but makes boron-doped graphene. Modeling of oxygen reduction reaction
demonstrates high catalytic performance of these materials.Comment: 15 pages, 8 figures, to appear in Appl. Surf. Sc
