State vector formulation of substructure coupling for damped systems

A generalized substructure coupling procedure in state vector form is derived for a complex system with general viscous damping. This first-order differential equation formulation is used in order to permit complex substructure modes to be employed easily. The free-interface normal (complex) modes and rigid-body modes of the substructure are defined. Complex residual attachment modes which result from static approximation of neglected higher modes are derived. The motion of each substructure is represented by a selected set of component modes. Equations of interface compatibility are employed to obtain an independent set of system equations of motion. A new method which employs incomplete complex normal modes in conjunction with the complex residual attachment modes to account for the contribution of neglected higher order modes is derived. Examples are employed to indicate how a damped structure may be analyzed by including the effect of residual attachment modes. Numerical results indicate that the new component mode synthesis method provides sytem equations of motion with reduced number of degrees of feedom leading to more accurate approximations to the system frequencies and damping factors than are obtained by pure mode truncation.

Observation of an Axial-Vector State in the Study of the Decay ψ ( 3686 ) → ϕ η η ′

Using ( 2712.4 ± 14.3 ) × 10 6 ψ ( 3686 ) events collected with the BESIII detector at BEPCII, a partial wave analysis of the decay ψ ( 3686 ) → ϕ η η ′ is performed with the covariant tensor approach. In addition to the established states h 1 ( 1900 ) and ϕ ( 2170 ) , an axial-vector state with a mass near 2.3 GeV / c 2 is observed for the first time. Its mass and width are measured to be 2316 ± 9 stat ± 3 0 syst MeV / c 2 and 89 ± 1 5 stat ± 2 6 syst MeV , respectively. The product branching fractions of B [ ψ ( 3686 ) → X ( 2300 ) η ′ ] B [ X ( 2300 ) → ϕ η ] and B [ ψ ( 3686 ) → X ( 2300 ) η ] B [ X ( 2300 ) → ϕ η ′ ] are determined to be ( 4.8 ± 1.3 stat ± 0.7 syst ) × 10 − 6 and ( 2.2 ± 0.7 stat ± 0.7 syst ) × 10 − 6 , respectively. The branching fraction B [ ψ ( 3686 ) → ϕ η η ′ ] is measured for the first time to be ( 3.14 ± 0.1 7 stat ± 0.2 4 syst ) × 10 − 5 . The first uncertainties are statistical and the second are systematic. Published by the American Physical Society 2025

SV-Sim: Scalable PGAS-based State Vector Simulation of Quantum Circuits

High-performance quantum circuit simulation in a classic HPC is still imperative in the NISQ era. Observing that the major obstacle of scalable state-vector quantum simulation arises from the massively fine-grained irregular data-exchange with remote nodes, in this paper we present SV-Sim to apply the emerging PGAS-based communication models (i.e., direct peer access for intra-node CPUs/GPUs and SHMEM for inter-node CPU/GPU clusters) for efficient scalable quantum circuit simulation. Through an orchestrated device functional pointer design, SV-Sim is able to abstract the quantum gate sets across various heterogeneous backends, including IBM/Intel/AMD CPUs, NVIDIA /AMD GPUs, and Intel MIC, in a unified framework, but still asserting outstanding performance and tractable interface to higher-level quantum programming environments, such as IBM Qiskit, Microsoft Q\# and Google Cirq. Circumventing the disability of polymorphism in GPUs and leveraging the device-initiated one-sided communication, SV-Sim can process dynamically synthesized quantum circuit in a single GPU/CPU kernel without the need of expensive JIT or runtime branching, significantly improving the performance and simplifying the programming complexity for the emerging variational quantum algorithms. Evaluations on NVIDIA A100-DGX-1, V100-DGX-2, AMD MI100, ALCF Theta, and OLCF Summit HPCs show that SV-Sim can delivery scalable performance on various state-of-the-art HPC platforms, offering a useful tool for quantum algorithm validation and verification.

QForte: An Efficient State-Vector Emulator and Quantum Algorithms Library for Molecular Electronic Structure

Here, we introduce a novel open-source software package QForte, a comprehensive development tool for new quantum simulation algorithms. QForte incorporates functionality for handling molecular Hamiltonians, fermionic encoding, ansatz construction, time evolution, and state-vector emulation, requiring only a classical electronic structure package as a dependency. QForte also contains black-box implementations of a wide variety of quantum algorithms, including variational and projective quantum eigensolvers, adaptive eigensolvers, quantum imaginary time evolution, and quantum Krylov methods. We highlight two features of QForte: (i) how the Python class structure of QForte enables the facile implementation of new algorithms, and (ii) how existing algorithms can be executed in just a few lines of code.

A hybrid state vector approach to aeroelastic analysis with application to composite lifting surfaces

A computational technique has been developed for performing preliminary design aeroelastic analyses of large aspect ratio lifting surfaces. This technique, applicable to both fixed and rotating wing configurations, is based upon a formulation of the structural equilibrium equations in terms of a hybrid state vector containing generalized force and displacement variables. An integrating matrix is employed to solve these equations for divergence and flutter eigenvalues and steady aeroelastic deformation. Results are presented for simple examples which verify the technique and demonstrate how it can be applied to analyze lifting surfaces, including those constructed from composite materials.

Integrating matrix solution of the hybrid state vector equations for beam vibration

A simple, versatile, and efficient computational technique has been developed for dynamic analysis of linear elastic beam and rod type of structures. Moreover, the method provides a rather general solution approach for two-point boundary value problems that are described by a single independent spatial variable. For structural problems, the method is implemented by a mixed state vector formulation of the differential equations, combined with an integrating matrix solution procedure. Highly accurate solutions are easily achieved with this approach. Example solutions are given for beam vibration problems including discontinuous stiffness and mass parameters, elastic restraint boundary conditions, concentrated inertia loading, and rigid body modes

Extension of state-vector splitting to the Navier-Stokes equations

A multi-dimensional upwind scheme for solving the Euler equations has been extended to solve the Navier-Stokes equations. These methods share the property of not requiring body-fitted computational grids. A time advance scheme which is second-order accurate in time and space has been developed for use in conjunction with state-vector splitting to accurately resolve regions with significant gradients in flow quantities. The scheme has been tested on several simple viscous flow problems for which analytic solutions are known; the agreement of computation with theory is excellent.

Efficient Hierarchical State Vector Simulation of Quantum Circuits via Acyclic Graph Partitioning

Early but promising results in quantum computing have been enabled by the concurrent development of quantum algorithms, devices, and materials. Classical simulation of quantum programs has enabled the design and analysis of algorithms and implementation strategies targeting current and anticipated quantum device architectures. In this paper, we present a graph-based approach to achieve efficient quantum circuit simulation. Our approach involves partitioning the graph representation of a given quantum circuit into sub-graphs/circuits that exhibit better data locality. Simulation of each sub-circuit is organized hierarchically, with the iterative construction and simulation of smaller state vectors, improving overall performance. Also, this partitioning reduces the number of passes through data, improving the total computation time. We present three partitioning strategies and observe that acyclic graph partitioning typically results in the best time-to-solution. In contrast, other strategies reduce the partitioning time at the expense of potentially increased simulation times. Experimental evaluation demonstrates the effectiveness of our approach.

Plasmaspheric Plumes: Occurrence Frequency and Quantification using Magnetospheric State Vector

Plasmaspheric drainage plumes appear in the aftermath of periods of enhanced convection/erosion and are interpreted as a near-equatorial signature of the redistribution of thermal plasma along streamlines. Analysis of IMAGE/EUV observations reveals that for Kp >3, there is an 84% probability of observing a plasmaspheric plume in EUV data. We present a statistical analysis of the geomagnetic conditions [Kp, Dst, and solar wind-induced electric field] associated with EUV plume observations. Additionally, statistical analysis of the a solar wind-induced convection electric field at Earth [Ey,sm] associated with EUV plume observations are presented. These results are then used to specify a single magnetospheric state vector to define the configuration of magnetosphere associated with the formation of this major plasmaspheric structure.

Coherent Gamow states for the hyperbolic Pöschl–Teller potential

Highlights: •The use of Gamow states as coherent states. •The case of hyperbolic Pöschl–Teller potential. •Bosonic expansions. -- Abstract: We have defined a pair of families of coherent states using creation and annihilation operators relating the Gamow states, vector states for non-relativistic quantum resonances. We have used an explicit one dimensional model, for which these operators may be explicitly written: the one dimensional Pöschl–Teller Hamiltonian. We have shown that this model may serve as an example for the pseudo-boson formalism.

Realistic Covariance Prediction For the Earth Science Constellations

Routine satellite operations for the Earth Science Constellations (ESC) include collision risk assessment between members of the constellations and other orbiting space objects. One component of the risk assessment process is computing the collision probability between two space objects. The collision probability is computed via Monte Carlo techniques as well as numerically integrating relative probability density functions. Each algorithm takes as inputs state vector and state vector uncertainty information for both objects. The state vector uncertainty information is expressed in terms of a covariance matrix. The collision probability computation is only as good as the inputs. Therefore, to obtain a collision calculation that is a useful decision-making metric, realistic covariance matrices must be used as inputs to the calculation. This paper describes the process used by NASA Goddard's Earth Science Mission Operations Project to generate realistic covariance predictions for three of the ESC satellites: Aqua, Aura, and Terra
