Harmonic decomposition of the trace of 1D transfer matrices in layered media

Antonio Joaquin Garcia Suarez

The Transfer Matrix formalism is ubiquitous when it comes to study wave propagation in various stratified media, applications ranging from Seismology to Quantum Mechanics. A relation between variables at two points in two different layers can be establishe ...

Construction of optimal spectral methods in phase retrieval

Florent Gérard Krzakala, Lenka Zdeborová

We consider the phase retrieval problem, in which the observer wishes to recover a n-dimensional real or complex signal X⋆ from the (possibly noisy) observation of |ΦX⋆|, in which Φ is a matrix of size m×n. We consider a \emph{high-dimensional} setting whe ...

Remarkable Color Gamut Enhancement of Dye Lacquers Using Corrugated Surfaces

Olivier Martin, Sebastian Mader

The visual appearance of any colorized object is usually determined by the spectral absorption of either pigments or dyes. One can however also colorize objects with structural colors that typically have an iridescent appearance, as seen on many beetles. T ...

Bootstrapping massive quantum field theories

Denis Karateev

We propose a new non-perturbative method for studying UV complete unitary quantum field theories (QFTs) with a mass gap in general number of spacetime dimensions. The method relies on unitarity formulated as positive semi-definiteness of the matrix of inne ...

Ultrafast Photoelectron and Optical Spectroscopies of Photoinduced Processes in Molecular Systems in Solution

Luca Longetti

Investigating molecular excitations with femtosecond time resolution is of pivotal importance to understand the out-of-equilibrium processes taking place in molecular systems upon light absorption. The photochemistry of solvated species is heavily determin ...

In 1906, Theodore Lyman discovered his eponymous series of transitions in the extreme-ultraviolet region of the atomic hydrogen spectrum(1,2). The patterns in the hydrogen spectrum helped to establish the emerging theory of quantum mechanics, which we now ...

Soft optical composites for tunable transmittance

Pedro Miguel Nunes Pereira de Almeida Reis, Sanjeev Kumar

We introduce a soft composite that is actuated mechanically to achieve switchable and tunable optical transmittance. Our design comprises a series of parallel opaque platelets embedded into an optically clear silicone-based elastomer matrix. Under an appli ...

Fast recovery and approximation of hidden Cauchy structure

Robert Gerhard Jérôme Luce

We derive an algorithm of optimal complexity which determines whether a given matrix is a Cauchy matrix, and which exactly recovers the Cauchy points defining a Cauchy matrix from the matrix entries. Moreover, we study how to approximate a given matrix by ...

Randomized Single-View Algorithms for Low-Rank Matrix Approximation

Volkan Cevher, Alp Yurtsever

This paper develops a suite of algorithms for constructing low-rank approximations of an input matrix from a random linear image of the matrix, called a sketch. These methods can preserve structural properties of the input matrix, such as positive-semideni ...

Dual-Band Perfect Absorber for Multispectral Plasmon-Enhanced Infrared Spectroscopy

Hatice Altug, Kai Chen

Metamaterial-based perfect absorbers utilize intrinsic loss, with the aid of appropriate structural design, to achieve near unity absorption at a certain wavelength. For most of the reported absorbers, the absorption occurs only at a single wavelength wher ...
