Quantum Information and Quantum Computation
... Over the last half century, the components of computers have gotten smaller by a factor of two every year and a half, the phenomenon known as Moore's law. In current computers, the smallest wires and transistors are coming close to a size of one hundred nanometers across, a thousand times the diamet ...

Zonal Spherical Functions on Some Symmetric Spaces
... Let G be a real semisimple Lie group with finite center, and K a maximal compact subgroup of G. A zonal spherical function on the symmetric space X=G/K is an simulatneous eigeiifunction (p(x) of all the invariant differential operators on X satisfying (p(kx) = cp(x) for any x^X, k^K, and (p(eK) =1, ...

Perfectly accurate clocks turn out to be impossible
... dealing with very large accelerations, no clock will actually be able to show the real passage of time, known as “proper time”. The ideal clock is merely a convenient fiction, as theorists from the University of Warsaw (UW) and University of Nottingham (UN) have shown. In a study published in the jo ...

Indeed, the number of such objects in a given volume element is not defined when the volume element is smaller tha ...
