Quantum state engineering and photon statistics at electromagnetic time interfaces by M. S. Mirmoosa, T. Setälä, A. Norrman

“…However, compared with the research efforts and progresses that have taken place in the realm of classical electrodynamics, the quantum aspects of this emerging subject have been less explored. Here, through the lens of quantum optics, we study the scattering of electromagnetic fields from an isotropic and nondispersive material with a suddenly changing refractive index, creating a time interface. …”

A Study on the Influence of the Conglomerate Mesostructure on Fracture Failure Behavior Based on Discrete Element Method by Yu Yan, Shiyuan Li

“…Rich in valuable reserves, conglomerate reservoirs in China have gradually emerged as a fundamental development source. Currently, research pertaining to the macromechanical properties of crack propagation in conglomerates is conducted either by directly employing various physical tests or by formulating a simplified numerical model for simulation, while disregarding the influence of the conglomerate mesostructure. …”

Arte e tecnologia in Corea del Sud: tre mostre per una prospettiva occidentale by Francesco Spampinato

“…The three exhibitions highlight a range of relationships, resemblances, reciprocities and repercussions between Europe and the United States on the one hand and East Asia on the other, but also peculiarities and differences that denote different conceptions and degrees of impact of digital media and technologies in their respective countries. What emerges, indeed, is the need to move beyond the traditional limits of colonialist-minded forms of techno-orientalism in favor of new avenues of interpretation of a peculiar Eastern technological thought, such as, for example, the concept of “Cosmotechnics” recently elaborated by Yuk Hui.…”

Concentration and Diversification of Production by Example of Major Indian Business groups by M. A. Vorobyeva

“…We assume that diversification appears to be a necessary, and sometimes the only possible way of big business development amid imperfect market competition, inherent in emerging markets.

On the Price Dynamics of a Two-Dimensional Financial Market Model with Entry Levels by En-Guo Gu

“…We also prove that one of its surprising features is that model simulations may appear to be chaotic, although only regular dynamics can emerge. When trend followers are bullish or bearish on the stock market, we present the existence conditions of attracting coexistence fixed point, globally and locally attracting fixed point, and periodic and other bounded attractors. …”
