We find that inhomogeneity, on average, enhances the stability of the biggest attractor of the dynamics and that...

Force-detected nuclear double resonance between statistical spin polarizations cond-mat.stat-mech We demonstrate nuclear double resonance for nanometer-scale volumes of spins where random fluctuations rather than Boltzmann polarization dominate. When the Hartmann-Hahn condition is met in a cross-polarization expe...

Cosmic Ray Positron and Electron Excess from Hidden-Fermion Dark Matter Decays hep-ph The anomalies observed in recent cosmic ray experiments seem to strongly constrain the nature of the dark matter. In this letter, we investigate a possibility of the fermionic dark matter with a minimal extension of the standard...

Generation of entangled photon-pairs from a single quantum dot embedded in a planar photonic-crystal cavity cond-mat.other We present a formal theory of single quantum-dot coupling to a planar photonic crystal that supports quasi-degenerate cavity modes, and use this theory to describe, and optimize, entangled-ph...

Degenerate quantum codes and the quantum Hamming bound quant-ph The parameters of a nondegenerate quantum code must obey the Hamming bound. An important open problem in quantum coding theory is whether or not the parameters of a degenerate quantum code can violate this bound for nondegenerate quantum codes. In this...

Two Mode Photon Bunching Effect as Witness of Quantum Criticality in Circuit QED quant-ph cond-mat.mes-hall We suggest a scheme to probe critical phenomena at a quantum phase transition (QPT) using the quantum correlation of two photonic modes simultaneously coupled to a critical system. As an experimentally acce...

Resistance noise in electrically biased bilayer graphene cond-mat.mes-hall We demonstrate that the low-frequency resistance fluctuations, or noise, in bilayer graphene is strongly connected to its band structure, and displays a minimum when the gap between the conduction and valence band is zero. Using double-gated...

Monge-Amp\`ere equations in big cohomology classes math.CV math.DG We define non-pluripolar products of closed positive currents on a compact Kaehler manifold. We show that a positive non-pluripolar measure can be written in a unique way as the top degree self-intersection (in the non-pluripolar sense) of a closed ...
