The phase estimation algorithm is so named because it allows an estimation of the eigenvalues associated with an operator. However, it has been proposed that the algorithm can also be used to generate eigenstates. Here we extend this proposal for small quantum systems, identifying the conditions under which the phase-estimation algorithm can successfully generate eigenstates. We then propose an implementation scheme based on an ion trap quantum computer. This scheme allows us to illustrate two simple examples, one in which the algorithm effectively generates eigenstates, and one in which it does not.

We develop a new iterative filter diagonalization (FD) scheme based on Lanczos subspaces and demonstrate its application to the calculation of bound-state and resonance eigenvalues. The new scheme combines the Lanczos three-term vector recursion for the generation of a tridiagonal representation of the Hamiltonian with a three-term scalar recursion to generate filtered states within the Lanczos representation. Eigenstates in the energy windows of interest can then be obtained by solving a small generalized eigenvalue problem in the subspace spanned by the filtered states. The scalar filtering recursion is based on the homogeneous eigenvalue equation of the tridiagonal representation of the Hamiltonian, and is simpler and more efficient than our previous quasi-minimum-residual filter diagonalization (QMRFD) scheme (H. G. Yu and S. C. Smith, Chem. Phys. Lett., 1998, 283, 69), which was based on solving for the action of the Green operator via an inhomogeneous equation. A low-storage method for the construction of Hamiltonian and overlap matrix elements in the filtered-basis representation is devised, in which contributions to the matrix elements are computed simultaneously as the recursion proceeds, allowing coefficients of the filtered states to be discarded once their contribution has been evaluated. Application to the HO2 system shows that the new scheme is highly efficient and can generate eigenvalues with the same numerical accuracy as the basic Lanczos algorithm.

: In this work we derive an analytical solution given by Bessel series to the transient and one-dimensional (1D) bioheat transfer equation in a multi-layer region with spatially dependent heat sources. Each region represents an independent biological tissue characterized by temperature-invariant physiological parameters and a linearly temperature dependent metabolic heat generation. Moreover, 1D Cartesian, cylindrical or spherical coordinates are used to define the geometry and temperature boundary conditions of first, second and third kinds are assumed at the inner and outer surfaces. We present two examples of clinical applications for the developed solution. In the first one, we investigate two different heat source terms to simulate the heating in a tumor and its surrounding tissue, induced during a magnetic fluid hyperthermia technique used for cancer treatment. To obtain an accurate analytical solution, we determine the error associated with the truncated Bessel series that defines the transient solution. In the second application, we explore the potential of this model to study the effect of different environmental conditions in a multi-layered human head model (brain, bone and scalp). The convective heat transfer effect of a large blood vessel located inside the brain is also investigated. The results are further compared with a numerical solution obtained by the Finite Element Method and computed with COMSOL Multi-physics v4.1 (c). (c) 2013 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Analyzing functional data often leads to finding common factors, for which functional principal component analysis proves to be a useful tool to summarize and characterize the random variation in a function space. The representation in terms of eigenfunctions is optimal in the sense of L-2 approximation. However, the eigenfunctions are not always directed towards an interesting and interpretable direction in the context of functional data and thus could obscure the underlying structure. To overcome such difficulty, an alternative to functional principal component analysis is proposed that produces directed components which may be more informative and easier to interpret. These structural components are similar to principal components, but are adapted to situations in which the domain of the function may be decomposed into disjoint intervals such that there is effectively independence between intervals and positive correlation within intervals. The approach is demonstrated with synthetic examples as well as real data. Properties for special cases are also studied.

Given a compact Riemannian manifold $M$ of dimension $m \geq 2$, we study the space of functions of $L^2(M)$generated by eigenfunctions ofeigenvalues less than $L \geq 1$ associated to the Laplace-Beltrami operator on $M$. On these spaces we give a characterization of the Carleson measures and the Logvinenko-Sereda sets.

In this paper, we investigate the average andoutage performance of spatial multiplexing multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems with channel state information at both sides of the link. Such systems result, for example, from exploiting the channel eigenmodes in multiantenna systems. Dueto the complexity of obtaining the exact expression for the average bit error rate (BER) and the outage probability, we deriveapproximations in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime assuming an uncorrelated Rayleigh flat-fading channel. Moreexactly, capitalizing on previous work by Wang and Giannakis, the average BER and outage probability versus SNR curves ofspatial multiplexing MIMO systems are characterized in terms of two key parameters: the array gain and the diversity gain. Finally, these results are applied to analyze the performance of a variety of linear MIMO transceiver designs available in the literature.

In numerical linear algebra, students encounter earlythe iterative power method, which finds eigenvectors of a matrixfrom an arbitrary starting point through repeated normalizationand multiplications by the matrix itself. In practice, more sophisticatedmethods are used nowadays, threatening to make the powermethod a historical and pedagogic footnote. However, in the contextof communication over a time-division duplex (TDD) multipleinputmultiple-output (MIMO) channel, the power method takes aspecial position. It can be viewed as an intrinsic part of the uplinkand downlink communication switching, enabling estimationof the eigenmodes of the channel without extra overhead. Generalizingthe method to vector subspaces, communication in thesubspaces with the best receive and transmit signal-to-noise ratio(SNR) is made possible. In exploring this intrinsic subspace convergence(ISC), we show that several published and new schemes canbe cast into a common framework where all members benefit fromthe ISC.

The problem of convenient access to quantitative Hückel-level descriptions of Möbius and Hückel annulenes for undergraduate lectures about aromaticity is discussed. Frost circle, Zimmerman circle, double circle and Langler semicircular mnemonics are described. The relationship between spectra (complete sets of secular equation roots) for an isoconjugate pair of Hückel and Möbius annulenes and the corresponding acyclic polyene with one less carbon is fully developed. In addition to providing an alternative path to exact spectrum roots, this relationship provides immediate access to almost half of the eigenfunctions for an isoconjugate annulene pair. The remaining eigenfunctions may be obtained very easily.

The energy eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions are calculated analytically by the use of Nikiforov-Uvarov (NU) method which is related to the solutions in terms of Jacobi polynomials. The bounded state eigenvalues are calculated numerically for the 1s state of N2 CO and NO

In this work we look at two different 1-dimensional quantum systems. The potentials for these systems are a linear potential in an infinite well and an inverted harmonic oscillator in an infinite well. We will solve the Schrödinger equation for both of these systems and get the energy eigenvalues and eigenfunctions. The solutions are obtained by using the boundary conditions and numerical methods. The motivation for our study comes from experimental background. For the linear potential we have two different boundary conditions. The first one is the so called normal boundary condition in which the wave function goes to zero on the edge of the well. The second condition is called derivative boundary condition in which the derivative of the wave function goes to zero on the edge of the well. The actual solutions are Airy functions. In the case of the inverted oscillator the solutions are parabolic cylinder functions and they are solved only using the normal boundary condition. Both of the potentials are compared with the particle in a box solutions. We will also present figures and tables from which we can see how the solutions look like. The similarities and differences with the particle in a box solution are also shown visually. The figures and calculations are done using mathematical software. We will also compare the linear potential to a case where the infinite wall is only on the left side. For this case we will also show graphical information of the different properties. With the inverted harmonic oscillator we will take a closer look at the quantum mechanical tunneling. We present some of the history of the quantum tunneling theory, its developers and finally we show the Feynman path integral theory. This theory enables us to get the instanton solutions. The instanton solutions are a way to look at the tunneling properties of the quantum system. The results are compared with the solutions of the double-well potential which is very similar to our case as a quantum system. The solutions are obtained using the same methods which makes the comparison relatively easy. All in all we consider and go through some of the stages of the quantum theory. We also look at the different ways to interpret the theory. We also present the special functions that are needed in our solutions, and look at the properties and different relations to other special functions. It is essential to notice that it is possible to use different mathematical formalisms to get the desired result. The quantum theory has been built for over one hundred years and it has different approaches. Different aspects make it possible to look at different things.

In this paper, we introduce a new approach for volatility modeling in discrete and continuous time. We follow the stochastic volatility literature by assuming that the variance is a function of a state variable. However, instead of assuming that the loading function is ad hoc (e.g., exponential or affine), we assume that it is a linear combination of the eigenfunctions of the conditional expectation (resp. infinitesimal generator) operator associated to the state variable in discrete (resp. continuous) time. Special examples are the popular log-normal and square-root models where the eigenfunctions are the Hermite and Laguerre polynomials respectively. The eigenfunction approach has at least six advantages: i) it is general since any square integrable function may be written as a linear combination of the eigenfunctions; ii) the orthogonality of the eigenfunctions leads to the traditional interpretations of the linear principal components analysis; iii) the implied dynamics of the variance and squared return processes are ARMA and, hence, simple for forecasting and inference purposes; (iv) more importantly, this generates fat tails for the variance and returns processes; v) in contrast to popular models, the variance of the variance is a flexible function of the variance; vi) these models are closed under temporal aggregation.

Ce mémoire a pour but d'étudier les propriétés des solutions à l'équation aux valeurs propres de l'opérateur de Laplace sur le disque lorsque les valeurs propres tendent vers l'in ni. En particulier, on s'intéresse au taux de croissance des normes ponctuelle et L1. Soit D le disque unitaire et @D sa frontière (le cercle unitaire). On s'inté- resse aux solutions de l'équation aux valeurs propres f = f avec soit des conditions frontières de Dirichlet (fj@D = 0), soit des conditions frontières de Neumann ( @f @nj@D = 0 ; notons que sur le disque, la dérivée normale est simplement la dérivée par rapport à la variable radiale : @ @n = @ @r ). Les fonctions propres correspondantes sont données par : f (r; ) = fn;m(r; ) = Jn(kn;mr)(Acos(n ) + B sin(n )) (Dirichlet) fN (r; ) = fN n;m(r; ) = Jn(k0 n;mr)(Acos(n ) + B sin(n )) (Neumann) où Jn est la fonction de Bessel de premier type d'ordre n, kn;m est son m- ième zéro et k0 n;m est le m-ième zéro de sa dérivée (ici on dénote les fonctions propres pour le problème de Dirichlet par f et celles pour le problème de Neumann par fN). Dans ce cas, on obtient que le spectre SpD( ) du laplacien sur D, c'est-à-dire l'ensemble de ses valeurs propres, est donné par : SpD( ) = f : f = fg = fk2 n;m : n = 0; 1; 2; : : :m = 1; 2; : : :g (Dirichlet) SpN D( ) = f : fN = fNg = fk0 n;m 2 : n = 0; 1; 2; : : :m = 1; 2; : : :g (Neumann) En n, on impose que nos fonctions propres soient normalisées par rapport à la norme L2 sur D, c'est-à-dire : R D F2 da = 1 (à partir de maintenant on utilise F pour noter les fonctions propres normalisées et f pour les fonctions propres quelconques). Sous ces conditions, on s'intéresse à déterminer le taux de croissance de la norme L1 des fonctions propres normalisées, notée jjF jj1, selon . Il est vi important de mentionner que la norme L1 d'une fonction sur un domaine correspond au maximum de sa valeur absolue sur le domaine. Notons que dépend de deux paramètres, m et n et que la dépendance entre et la norme L1 dépendra du rapport entre leurs taux de croissance. L'étude du comportement de la norme L1 est étroitement liée à l'étude de l'ensemble E(D) qui est l'ensemble des points d'accumulation de log(jjF jj1)= log : Notre principal résultat sera de montrer que [7=36; 1=4] E(B2) [1=18; 1=4]: Le mémoire est organisé comme suit. L'introdution et les résultats principaux sont présentés au chapitre 1. Au chapitre 2, on rappelle quelques faits biens connus concernant les fonctions propres du laplacien sur le disque et sur les fonctions de Bessel. Au chapitre 3, on prouve des résultats concernant la croissance de la norme ponctuelle des fonctions propres. On montre notamment que, si m=n ! 0, alors pour tout point donné (r; ) du disque, la valeur de F (r; ) décroit exponentiellement lorsque ! 1. Au chapitre 4, on montre plusieurs résultats sur la croissance de la norme L1. Le probl ème avec conditions frontières de Neumann est discuté au chapitre 5 et on présente quelques résultats numériques au chapitre 6. Une brève discussion et un sommaire de notre travail se trouve au chapitre 7.

Le problème d’oscillation de fluides dans un conteneur est un problème classique d’hydrodynamique qui est etudié par des mathématiciens et ingénieurs depuis plus de 150 ans. Le présent travail est lié à l’étude de l’alternance des fonctions propres paires et impaires du problème de Steklov-Neumann pour les domaines à deux dimensions ayant une forme symétrique. On obtient des résultats sur la parité de deuxième et troisième fonctions propres d’un tel problème pour les trois premiers modes, dans le cas de domaines symétriques arbitraires. On étudie aussi la simplicité de deux premières valeurs propres non nulles d’un tel problème. Il existe nombre d’hypothèses voulant que pour le cas des domaines symétriques, toutes les valeurs propres sont simples. Il y a des résultats de Kozlov, Kuznetsov et Motygin [1] sur la simplicité de la première valeur propre non nulle obtenue pour les domaines satisfaisants la condition de John. Dans ce travail, il est montré que pour les domaines symétriques, la deuxième valeur propre non-nulle du problème de Steklov-Neumann est aussi simple.
