By applying a staggered driving force in a prototypical discrete model with a quartic nonlinearity, we demonstrate the spontaneous formation and destruction of discrete breathers with a selected frequency due to thermal fluctuations. The phenomenon exhibits the striking features of stochastic resonance: a nonmonotonic behavior as noise is increased and breather generation under subthreshold con...

We study the influence of an external driving field on the coherence properties of a qubit under the influence of bit-flip noise. In the presence of driving, two paradigmatic cases are considered: (i) a field that results for a suitable choice of the parameters in so-called coherent destruction of tunneling and (ii) one that commutes with the static qubit Hamiltonian. In each case, we give for ...

As the number of drivers with cognitive impairment increases, family physicians are more likely to become involved in decisions about cessation of driving privileges in older patients. Physicians who care for cognitively impaired older adults should routinely ask about driving status. In patients who continue to drive, physicians should assess pertinent cognitive domains, determine the severity...

Topological quantum computation has been extensively studied in the past decades due to its robustness against decoherence. One way to realize the topological quantum computation is by adiabatic evolutions-it requires relatively long time to complete a gate, so the speed of quantum computation slows down. In this work, we present a method to realize single qubit quantum gates by periodic drivin...

Nature of reform to animal welfare legislation in Australia has commonly been attributed increasing alignment with the ‘communities’ expectations’, implying that community power driving legislative change. Yet, despite this assertion there no publicly available information disclosing nature these ‘expectations’, or methodology used determine public stance. However, based on previous sociologica...

Background: This study aimed to examine the number of latent classes of criminal intent that exist among prisoners and to look at the associations with recidivism, number of police arrests, type of offending (robbery, violent offences, murder, and multiple offences), and age. Participants and Procedure: Latent class analysis was used to identify homogeneous subgroups of prisoners based on their...

We study how entrepreneurs’ attitudes toward risk, as measured by their personal legal infractions, are related to information asymmetry and agency problems prior bankruptcy, using a sample of 260 small Swedish firms. find that auditor resignations more likely in firms where entrepreneurs have infractions. Furthermore, we infractions negatively the likelihood firm disclosing its annual report q...

The subjects of this analysis are normative acts and their practical applications in the protection wild flora fauna, that is, international Hungarian regulations on nature. Naturally, laws protecting environment much wider scope than subject matter article, as they include elements constitute well sanctions regarding behaviours related to waste disposal. In describing protect environment, we h...
