An Inquiry into the Practice of Proving in Low-Dimensional Topology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The aim of this article is to investigate specific aspects connected with visualization in the practice of a mathematical subfield: low-dimensional topology. Through a case study, it will be established that visualization can play an epistemic role.

Are physiological oscillations physiological?

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract figure legend Mechanisms and functions of physiological oscillations. Abstract Despite widespread and striking examples of physiological oscillations, their functional role is often unclear. Even glycolysis, the paradigm example of oscillatory biochemistry, has seen questions about its oscillatory function.

Geometrical representation of a monochromatic electromagnetic wave using the tangential vector approach

open access: yesJournal of Telecommunications and Information Technology, 2001
The aim of this work is to develop a coherent polarimetric model and to find a geometrical description of a monochromatic wave. The spinor form of the electrical field, its links to the coherency matrix and the Poincare` sphere are introduced with the ...

Massive spinning bosons on the celestial sphere

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2020
A natural extension of the Pasterski-Shao-Strominger (PSS) prescription is described, enabling the map of Minkowski space amplitudes with massive spinning external legs to the celestial sphere to be performed. An integral representation for the conformal

Quantum control and measurement of atomic spins in polarization spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Quantum control and measurement are two sides of the same coin. To affect a dynamical map, well-designed time-dependent control fields must be applied to the system of interest.

Exploration of CPT violation via time-dependent geometric quantities embedded in neutrino oscillation through fluctuating matter

open access: yesNuclear Physics B, 2017
We propose a new approach to explore CPT violation of neutrino oscillations through a fluctuating matter based on time-dependent geometric quantities. By mapping the neutrino oscillations onto a Poincaré sphere structure, we obtain an analytic solution ...

Spatial Directions, Anisotropy and Special Relativity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The concept of an objective spatial direction in special relativity is investigated and theories assuming light-speed isotropy while accepting the existence of a privileged spatial direction are classified.

Stress Direction Measurement Based on Polarization State in Optical Fibers Using the Quaternion Method

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2017
The state of polarization (SOP) in a polarization-maintaining fiber subjected to external stress is studied using the quaternion method. The stress principal axis on the Poincare sphere is independent of intrinsic birefringence, but has a linear ...

Coherent full polarization control based on bound states in the continuum

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Polarization control is of paramount importance for various applications. Here, the authors enable extreme control over light polarization spanning the entire Poincaré sphere by combining coherent control of wave phenomena and the physics of bound states
