Usefulness of the Age-Structured SIR Dynamics in Modelling COVID-19

We examine the age-structured SIR model, a variant of the classical Susceptible-Infected-Recovered (SIR) model of epidemic propagation, in the context of COVID-19. In doing so, we provide a theoretical basis for the model, perform an empirical validation, and discover the limitations of the model in approximating arbitrary epidemics. We first establish the differential equations defining the age-structured SIR model as the mean-field limits of a continuous-time Markov process that models epidemic spreading on a social network involving random, asynchronous interactions. We then show that, as the population size grows, the infection rate for any pair of age groups converges to its mean-field limit if and only if the edge update rate of the network approaches infinity, and we show how the rate of mean-field convergence depends on the edge update rate. We then propose a system identification method for parameter estimation of the bilinear ODEs of our model, and we test the model performance on a Japanese COVID-19 dataset by generating the trajectories of the age-wise numbers of infected individuals in the prefecture of Tokyo for a period of over 365 days. In the process, we also develop an algorithm to identify the different \textit{phases} of the pandemic, each phase being associated with a unique set of contact rates. Our results show a good agreement between the generated trajectories and the observed ones.

Vortex dynamics in lattice Bose gases in a synthesized magnetic field with a random noise and a dissipation: Study by the stochastic Gross-Pitaevskii equation

In this paper, we investigate vortex dynamics in a two-dimensional Bose-Hubbard model coupled with a weak artificial magnetic field, a random white noise and a dissipation. Origin of the noise and dissipation is considered as thermal fluctuations of atoms that do not participate the Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC). Solving a stochastic Gross-Pitaevskii equation to this system, we show that the interplay of the magnetic field and the white noise generates vortices in the bulk of the BEC and stable steady states of vortices form after a transition period. We calculate the incompressible part of the kinetic-energy spectrum of the BEC. In the transition period, a Kolmogorov $k^{-5/3}$ spectrum appears in the infrared regime with the wave number $k$, $k<\zeta^{-1}$, where $\zeta$ is the healing length, whereas in the ultraviolet region, $k>\zeta^{-1}$, the spectrum behaves as $k^{-3}$. On the other hand in the steady states, another scaling low appears. We find a relationship between the above mentioned kinetic-energy spectra and the velocity of vortices. By an inverse cascade, the large velocity of a few created vortices develops the Kolmogorov $k^{-5/3}$ spectrum.

A Rabi Oscillation in Four and Five Level Systems

In this paper we consider a general model of an atom with n energy levels interacting with n-1 external (laser) fields which is a natural extension in the two and three level systems. We exactly solve the Schr{\" o}dinger equation to obtain a Rabi oscillation when n = 4 and 5, which will constitute a quantum logic gate of Quantum Computation based on four and five level systems.

Cavity QED and Quantum Computation in the Weak Coupling Regime II : Complete Construction of the Controlled-Controlled NOT Gate

In this paper we treat a cavity QED quantum computation. Namely, we consider a model of quantum computation based on n atoms of laser-cooled and trapped linearly in a cavity and realize it as the n atoms Tavis-Cummings Hamiltonian interacting with n external (laser) fields. We solve the Schr{\" o}dinger equation of the model in the weak coupling regime to construct the controlled NOT gate in the case of n=2, and to construct the controlled-controlled NOT gate in the case of n=3 by making use of several resonance conditions and rotating wave approximation associated to them. We also present an idea to construct general quantum circuits. The approach is more sophisticated than that of the paper [K. Fujii, Higashida, Kato and Wada, Cavity QED and Quantum Computation in the Weak Coupling Regime, J. Opt. B : Quantum Semiclass. Opt. {\bf 6} (2004), 502]. Our method is not heuristic but completely mathematical, and the significant feature is based on a consistent use of Rabi oscillations.

Quantum Diagonalization Method in the Tavis-Cummings Model

To obtain the explicit form of evolution operator in the Tavis-Cummings model we must calculate the term ${e}^{-itg(S_{+}\otimes a+S_{-}\otimes a^{\dagger})}$ explicitly which is very hard. In this paper we try to make the quantum matrix $A\equiv S_{+}\otimes a+S_{-}\otimes a^{\dagger}$ diagonal to calculate ${e}^{-itgA}$ and, moreover, to know a deep structure of the model. For the case of one, two and three atoms we give such a diagonalization which is first nontrivial examples as far as we know, and reproduce the calculations of ${e}^{-itgA}$ given in quant-ph/0404034. We also give a hint to an application to a noncommutative differential geometry. However, a quantum diagonalization is not unique and is affected by some ambiguity arising from the noncommutativity of operators in quantum physics. Our method may open a new point of view in Mathematical Physics or Quantum Physics.

Explicit Form of Solution of Two Atoms Tavis-Cummings Model

In this paper we consider the two atoms Tavis--Cummings model and give an explicit form to the solution of this model which will play a central role in quantum computation based on atoms of laser--cooled and trapped linearly in a cavity. We also present a problem of three atoms Tavis--Cummings model which is related to the construction of controlled--controlled NOT operation (gate) in quantum computation.

N Level System with RWA and Analytical Solutions Revisited

In this paper we consider a model of an atom with n energy levels interacting with n(n-1)/2 external (laser) fields which is a natural extension of two level system, and assume the rotating wave approximation (RWA) from the beginning. We revisit some construction of analytical solutions (which correspond to Rabi oscillations) of the model in the general case and examine it in detail in the case of three level system.
