The solutions of discrete-soliton trains for diamond and square lattices are obtained by Petviashvili iteration method. It is found that for both the kinds of lattices, two in-phase (out- of-phase) discrete-soliton trains attract (repel) each other, and the intermediates are always accompanied with energy transfer. While the interaction forces between two incoherent discrete-soliton trains are always attractive.展开更多

The Lax- Wendroff time discretization procedure is an altemative method for time discretization to the popular total variation diminishing (TVD) Runge-Kutta time discretizations. In this paper, we develop fluxes for the method of DG with Lax-Wendroff time discretization procedure (LWDG) based on different numerical fluxes for finite volume or finite difference schemes, including the first-order monotone fluxes such as the Lax-Friedfichs flux, Godunov flux, the Engquist-Osher flux etc. and the second-order TVD fluxes. We systematically investigate the performance of the LWDG methods based on these different numerical fluxes for convection terms with the objective of obtaining better performance by choosing suitable numerical fluxes. The detailed numerical study is mainly performed for the one-dimensional system case, addressing the issues of CPU cost, accuracy, non-oscillatory property, and resolution of discontinuities. Numerical tests are also performed for two dimensional systems.展开更多

We start examining a pioneering work, by Gazeau and Klauder, where the concept of coherent states for systems with discrete spectrum was extended to systems with continuous one. In the present article, we see the Husimi distribution as a representation of the density operator in terms of a basis of coherent states. There are other ways to obtain it, but we do not consider here. We specially discuss the problem of the continuous harmonic oscillator.展开更多

The continuous time model of the system is properly introduced, then, by imposing a proper PWM modulation pattern, its discrete time model is achieved. This last one is successfully employed in determining the steady state locus of the Buck-Boost converter, both in CCM (continuous conduction mode) and DCM (discontinuous conduction mode). A novel continuous time equivalent circuit of the converter is introduced too, with the aim of determining a ripple free representation of the state variables of the system, over both transient and steady state operation. Then, a predictive current control algorithm, suitable in both CCM and DCM, is developed and properly checked by means of computer simulations. The corresponding results have highlighted the effectiveness of the proposed modelling and of the predictive control algorithm, both in CCM and DCM.展开更多

Subsequently, hybrid quantum private communication with discrete-variable signals, continuous-variable signals, and classic optical signals becomes inevitable in the practical scenario. In this paper, we experimentally investigated the mutual effects between the discrete-variable QKD(DVQKD) and the continuous-variable QKD(CVQKD) via a fiber channel. The experimental results show that the DVQKD will be influenced by the continuous-variable quantum signals and classic optical signals, while the CVQKD is not sensitive to the discrete-variable quantum signals.展开更多

Here we consider the problem of time reversal of a subsystem of discrete states coupled to an external environment characterized by a continuum of states, into which they generally decay. It is shown that, by flipping the discrete-continuum coupling from an Hermitian to a non-Hermitian interaction, thus resulting in a non unitary dynamics, time reversal of the subsystem of discrete states can be achieved, while the continuum of states is not reversed. Exact time reversal requires frequency degeneracy of the discrete states,or large frequency mismatch among the discrete states as compared to the strength of indirect coupling mediated by the continuum. Interestingly, periodic and frequent switch of the discrete-continuum coupling results in a frozen dynamics of the subsystem of discrete states.展开更多

This paper will further present the results on the robust output regulation problem for discrete-time linear systems with input and communication delays. The motivation of this paper comes from two aspects. First, it is known that the solvability of the output regulation problem for linear systems is dictated by two matrix equations. While, for delay-free systems, these two matrix equations are same for both continuous-time systems and discretetime systems, they are different for continuous-time time-delay systems and discrete-time time-delay systems. Second, the stabilization methods for continuous-time time-delay systems and discrete-time time-delay systems are also somehow different. Thus, an independent treatment of the robust output regulation problem for discrete-time time-delay systems will be useful and necessary.展开更多

Under an additional positiveness condition on infected population, we show that the backward Euler discretization is one of simple discrete-time analogue which preserves the global asymptotic stability of equilibria of the corresponding continuous model.展开更多
