The goal of the paper is to check whether the real eigenstates of the observables in the single qudit Pauli group may lead to quantum contextuality, the property that mutually compatible and independent experiments depend on each other. We find that quantum contextuality crops up at dimension twelve in various configurations with a few rays. We use the Shannon capacity for characterizing the co...

Consumer telecommunication integrated circuits and wireless communication devices, such as cell phone systems and wireless local area network systems, require high-performance analog and radio frequency (RF) integrated circuits (ICs). As the technology advances, nowadays billions of transistors can be integrated into one single chip. Placement is essential to both digital and analog integrated ...

In this paper we study the Casimir force for a piston configuration in R 3 with one dimension being slightly curved and the other two infinite. We work for two different cases with this setup. In the first, the piston is " free to move " along a transverse dimension to the curved one and in the other case the piston " moves " along the curved one. We find that the Casimir force has opposite sig...

Hyperbolic space groups are isometry groups, acting discontinuously on the hyperbolic 3-space with compact fundamental domain. One possibility to classify them is to look for fundamental domains of these groups. Here are considered supergroups for four series of groups with simplicial fundamental domains. Considered simplices, denoted in [9] by T19, T46, T59, belong to family F12, while T31 bel...

Hecke proved analytically that when h > 2 or when h = 2 CDS (m/q), q E Z, q > 3, then B(h) = (7: Im I > 0, / Re 7 1 < h/2, [ 7 j > 1) is a fundamental region for the group G(h) = (SA , T), where S,+ : 7 --f 7 + X and T: 7 ---t -l/~. He also showed that B(A) fails to be a fundamental region for all other A > 0 by proving that G(X) is not discontinuous. We give an elementary proof of these facts ...

The most secure type of grasp of a frictionless woorkpiece is the form-closure grasp. However, task constraints may make achieving form-closure impossible or undesirable. In this case, one needs to employ a force-closure 1 grasp. In this paper, we study the subclass of force-closure grasps known as second-order stable grasps, which typically have a small number of contacts. We derive conditions...

In this paper, we study a fundamental domain for Sp(g,Z) ⋉ H (g,h) Z \Hg × C .

We consider the Buffon’s problem for the lattice Rα,a which has the fundamental cell composed by the union of octagon, with all sides of lengths a and the angles (π − α) and ( 2 + α) with α ∈ ] 0, π 2 [ , and of the square with side of length a (see Fig. 1). We determine the probability of intersection of a body test needle of length l, l < a. For α = π 4 we also give the estimate of this proba...

Substituted pyrazolyl derivatives were synthesized through Suzuki cross coupling of aromatic boronic acid with heterocyclic halide using newly nano-Pd/chitosan catalyst by the water-mediated green synthesis methodology. The reactivity nano-Pd was highly enhanced incorporating palladium nanoparticles a biopolymer chitosan matrix. studied thoroughly for its structure, morphology, and other fundam...
