Dispersive Full-Channel Jones Matrix Modulation in Elliptical Polarization Bases via a Single-Layered Metasurface. [PDF]
This work presents a dispersive full‐channel Jones matrix modulation strategy using single‐layer metasurface. By synergizing wavelength dispersion engineering with elliptical polarization bases, independent control of four Jones matrix channels is achieved across multiple wavelengths.

Gauge Theories with Cayley-Klein $SO(2;j)$ and $SO(3;j)$ Gauge Groups [PDF]
Gauge theories with the orthogonal Cayley-Klein gauge groups $SO(2;j)$ and $SO(3;{\bf j})$ are regarded. For nilpotent values of the contraction parameters ${\bf j}$ these groups are isomorphic to the non-semisimple Euclid, Newton, Galilei groups and ...
