Time reversal and symmetries of time correlation functions

Sara Bonella, Alessandro Coretti

The time reversal invariance of classical dynamics is reconsidered in this paper with specific focus on its consequences for time correlation functions and associated properties such as transport coefficients. We show that, under fairly common assumptions ...

The effect of “objecthood” in the Ebbinghaus illusion

Michael Herzog, Aline Françoise Cretenoud, Einat Rashal

In the Ebbinghaus illusion, observers overestimate the size of a target when it is surrounded by large flakers and compared with a control target surrounded by small flankers. We examined whether “objecthood” – the degree to which an object is a cohesive e ...

Noether Theorems and Quantum Anomalies

Tudor Ratiu

A quantum anomaly is the breaking of symmetry with respect to some transformations after the quantization of a classical Hamiltonian or Lagrangian system. It is shown that both the Noether theorems (including their infinite-dimensional versions) and the ex ...

The symmetry of partner modelling

Pierre Dillenbourg, Nicolas Nova, Séverin Lemaignan

Collaborative learning has often been associated with the construction of a shared understanding of the situation at hand. The psycholinguistics mechanisms at work while establishing common grounds are the object of scientific controversy. We postulate tha ...

Mixed-Mode I/II fracture behavior of asymmetric composite joints

Thomas Keller, Anastasios Vassilopoulos, Moslem Shahverdi

The partitioning of the total strain energy release rate, G(tot), into the Mode I, G(I), and Mode II, G(II), components is challenging, especially in asymmetric cracks. Although many researchers have studied the fracture behavior of composite materials und ...

Polarization properties and disorder effects in H-3 photonic crystal cavities incorporating site-controlled, high-symmetry quantum dot arrays

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Benjamin Dwir, Pascal Gallo, Marco Felici, Alessandro Surrente

We report on the effects of optical disorder on breaking the symmetry of the cavity modes of H-3 photonic crystal cavities incorporating site-controlled pyramidal quantum dots (QDs) as the internal light source. The high in-plane symmetry of the polarizati ...

Spectral signatures of high-symmetry quantum dots and effects of symmetry breaking

Elyahou Kapon, Alok Rudra, Marc-André Dupertuis, Daniel Oberli, Valentina Troncale

High symmetry epitaxial quantum dots (QDs) with three or more symmetry planes provide a very promising route for the generation of entangled photons for quantum information applications. The great challenge to fabricate nanoscopic high symmetry QDs is furt ...

On the global structure of deformed Yang-Mills theory and QCD(adj) on R-3 x S-1

Spatial compactification on R(3)xS(L)(1), at small S-1-size L often leads to a calculable vacuum structure, where various "topological molecules" are responsible for confinement and the realization of the center and discrete chiral symmetries. Within this ...

Zoology of condensed matter: framids, ordinary stuff, extra-ordinary stuff

Riccardo Rattazzi

We classify condensed matter systems in terms of the spacetime symmetries they spontaneously break. In particular, we characterize condensed matter itself as any state in a Poincare-invariant theory that spontaneously breaks Lorentz boosts while preserving ...
