We study transport in coherent conductors driven by a time-periodic bias voltage. We present results of the charge and energy noise and complement them by a study of the mixed noise, namely the zero-frequency correlator between charge and energy current. The mixed noise presents interference contributions and transport contributions, showing features different from those of charge and energy no...

We introduce a classification of mixed three-qubit states, in which we define the classes of separable, biseparable, W, and Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states. These classes are successively embedded into each other. We show that contrary to pure W-type states, the mixed W class is not of measure zero. We construct witness operators that detect the class of a mixed state. We discuss the conject...

Using the mixed solvents, (water +ethanol + propanol), the solubility of CdF2 was determined byevaporating method at 25° C. The results showed that the sollbility, s, of CdF2 decreases bydecreasing the dielectric constant of the mixed solvent .Once the solubility of CdF2 was determined,the concentration solubility product, Ksp(c)=4s3, was calculated .Furthermore ,by estimating the meanactivity ...

We consider game theory from the perspective of quantum algorithms. Strategies in classical game theory are either pure (deterministic) or mixed (probabilistic). While not every two-person zero-sum finite game has an equilibrium in the set of pure strategies, von Neumann showed that there is always an equilibrium at which each player follows a mixed strategy. A mixed strategy deviating from the...

It is well known that the conventional edge element method in solving vector Maxwell’s eigenvalue problem will lead to the presence of nonphysical zero eigenvalues. This paper uses the mixed finite element method to suppress the presence of these nonphysical zero eigenvalues for 2D vector Maxwell’s eigenvalue problem in anisotropic media. We introduce a Lagrangian multiplier to deal with the co...

The cracked Brazilian disc (CBD) specimen is widely used in order to determine mode-I/II and mixed-mode fracture toughness of a rock medium. In this study, the stress intensity factor (SIF) on the crack-tip in this specimen is calculated for various geometrical crack conditions using the extended-finite element method (X-FEM). This method is based upon the finite element method (FEM). In this m...

This paper presents an analytical investigation of the nonlinear interaction of phase-mixed Alfvén waves in the framework of two-fluid magnetohydrodynamics. It focuses on the parametric decay of the phase-mixed pump Alfvén wave into two daughter Alfvén waves. This parametric decay is a nonlinear phenomenon which does not occur in ideal MHD since it is induced by the combined action of finite wa...

This paper is motivated by the question to approximate the distribution of the completion time of a project network with random activity durations. In general, we consider the mixed zero-one linear optimization problem under objective uncertainty, and develop an approach to approximate the distribution of its optimal value when the random objective coefficients follow a multivariate normal dist...
