Analyticity of the density of electronic wavefunctions
We prove that the electronic densities of atomic and molecular eigenfunctions
are real analytic in away from the nuclei.Comment: 19 page
Many Particle Hardy-Inequalities
In this paper we prove three differenttypes of the so-called many-particle
Hardy inequalities. One of them is a "classical type" which is valid in any
dimesnion . The second type deals with two-dimensional magnetic
Dirichlet forms where every particle is supplied with a soplenoid. Finally we
show that Hardy inequalities for Fermions hold true in all dimensions.Comment: 20 page
Comment on "Secure direct communication with a quantum one-time pad"
In the paper [Phys. Rev. A \textbf{69}, 052319 (2004)], a quantum direct
communication protocol is proposed which is claimed to be unconditionally
secure even for the case of a noisy channel. We show that this is not the case
by giving an undetectable attack scheme
A novel method for subjective picture quality assessment and further studies of HDTV formats
This is the author's accepted manuscript. The final published article is available from the link below. Copyright @ IEEE 2008.This paper proposes a novel method for the assessment of picture quality, called triple stimulus continuous evaluation scale (TSCES), to allow the direct comparison of different HDTV formats. The method uses an upper picture quality anchor and a lower picture quality anchor with defined impairments. The HDTV format under test is evaluated in a subjective comparison with the upper and lower anchors. The method utilizes three displays in a particular vertical arrangement. In an initial series of tests with the novel method, the HDTV formats 1080p/50,1080i/25, and 720p/50 were compared at various bit-rates and with seven different content types on three identical 1920 times 1080 pixel displays. It was found that the new method provided stable and consistent results. The method was tested with 1080p/50,1080i/25, and 720p/50 HDTV images that had been coded with H.264/AVC High profile. The result of the assessment was that the progressive HDTV formats found higher appreciation by the assessors than the interlaced HDTV format. A system chain proposal is given for future media production and delivery to take advantage of this outcome. Recommendations for future research conclude the paper
Quantitative analysis of ferroelectric domain imaging with piezoresponse force microscopy
The contrast mechanism for ferroelectric domain imaging via piezoresponse
force microscopy (PFM) is investigated. A novel analysis of PFM measurements is
presented which takes into account the background caused by the experimental
setup. This allows, for the first time, a quantitative, frequency independent
analysis of the domain contrast which is in good agreement with the expected
values for the piezoelectric deformation of the sample and satisfies the
generally required features of PFM imaging
VR/Urban: SMSlingshot
In this paper we describe the concept and design objectives of VR/Urban's media intervention tool SMSlingshot, which was presented at the Riga White Night Arts Festival 2009 for the first time
The state space of short-range Ising spin glasses: the density of states
The state space of finite square and cubic Ising spin glass models is
analysed in terms of the global and the local density of states. Systems with
uniform and gaussian probability distribution of interactions are compared.
Different measures for the local state density are presented and discussed. In
particular the question whether the local density of states grows exponentially
or not is considered. The direct comparison of global and local densities leads
to consequences for the structure of the state space.Comment: 18 pages (including 6 figures); submitted to Z.f.Physik
