Experimental verification of an indefinite causal order [PDF]

open access: yesScience Advances, 2016
Researchers report on the observation and characterization of a quantum process that lacks a predefined causal order. Investigating the role of causal order in quantum mechanics has recently revealed that the causal relations of events may not be a ...

Indefinites in Comparatives [PDF]

open access: yesSemantics and Linguistic Theory, 2011
The goal of this paper is to explain the meaning and distribution of indefinites in comparatives, focusing on the case of English 'some' and 'any' and German 'irgend'-indefinites. We combine three competing theories of comparatives with an alternative semantics of 'some' and 'any', and a novel account of stressed 'irgend'-indefinites.

Indefinite intertwining operators [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1984
For a wide class of linear connected semisimple Lie groups, one obtains formulas limiting the Langlands parameters of irreducible unitary representations obtained from maximal parabolic subgroups. The formulas relate unitarity to the number of roots satisfying certain conditions. Some evidence is presented that the formulas are sharp.

Indefinite theta functions for counting attractor backgrounds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In this note, we employ indefinite theta functions to regularize canonical partition functions for single-center dyonic BPS black holes. These partition functions count dyonic degeneracies in the Hilbert space of four-dimensional toroidally compactified ...

Time-delocalized quantum subsystems and operations: on the existence of processes with indefinite causal structure in quantum mechanics [PDF]

open access: yesQuantum, 2018
It has been shown that it is theoretically possible for there to exist higher-order quantum processes in which the operations performed by separate parties cannot be ascribed a definite causal order.

Variability Abstraction and Refinement for Game-Based Lifted Model Checking of Full CTL [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of the most promising approaches to fighting the configuration space explosion problem in lifted model checking are variability abstractions. In this work, we define a novel game-based approach for variability-specific abstraction and refinement for ...

Standing waves for quasilinear Schrödinger equations with indefinite potentials [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Differential Equations, 2018
We consider quasilinear Schrodinger equations in R N of the form − Δ u + V ( x ) u − u Δ ( u 2 ) = g ( u ) , where g ( u ) is 4-superlinear. Unlike all known results in the literature, the Schrodinger operator − Δ + V is allowed to be indefinite, hence ...

In the periphery of an indefinite pronoun. Forms and functions of conceptual agreement with jemand

open access: yesZeitschrift für Sprachwissenschaft, 2023
In German, the social gender of the human referent matches the grammatical gender of the noun and pronoun in many cases. Nevertheless, those categories can also differ from each other.

A Particle of Indefiniteness in American Sign Language

open access: yesLinguistic Discovery, 2003
We describe here the characteristics of a very frequently-occurring ASL indefinite focus particle, which has not previously been recognized as such. We show here that, despite its similarity to the question sign "WHAT", the particle is distinct from that
