Numerical strategy on the grid orientation effect in the simulation for two-phase flow in porous media by using the adaptive artificial viscosity method

It is a challenge to numerically solve nonlinear partial differential equations whose solution involves discontinuity. In the context of numerical simulators for multi-phase flow in porous media, there exists a long-standing issue known as Grid Orientation Effect (GOE), wherein different numerical solutions can be obtained when considering grids with different orientations under certain unfavorable conditions. Our perspective is that GOE arises due to numerical instability near displacement fronts, where spurious oscillations accompanied by sharp fronts, if not adequately suppressed, lead to GOE. To reduce or even eliminate GOE, we propose augmenting adaptive artificial viscosity when solving the saturation equation. It has been demonstrated that appropriate artificial viscosity can effectively reduce or even eliminate GOE. The proposed numerical method can be easily applied in practical engineering problems.

Three-tangle for high-rank mixed states

A family of rank-n (n=5,6,7,8) three-qubit mixed states are constructed. The explicit expressions for the three-tangle and optimal decompositions for all these states are given. The CKW relations for these states are also discussed.

Classification of Bipartite and Tripartite Qutrit Entanglement under SLOCC

We classify biqutrit and triqutrit pure states under stochastic local operations and classical communication. By investigating the right singular vector spaces of the coefficient matrices of the states, we obtain explicitly two equivalent classes of biqutrit states and twelve equivalent classes of triqutrit states respectively.

A Complete Set of Local Invariants for a Family of Multipartite Mixed States

We study the equivalence of quantum states under local unitary transformations by using the singular value decomposition. A complete set of invariants under local unitary transformations is presented for several classes of tripartite mixed states in KxMxN composite systems. Two density matrices in the same class are equivalent under local unitary transformations if and only if all these invariants have equal values for these density matrices.

Addendum to "Multipartite states under local unitary transformations"

In previous work the authors introduced a notion of generic states and obtained criteria for local equivalence of them. Here they introduce the concept of CHG states maintaining the criteria of local equivalence. This fact allows the authors to halve the number of invariants necessary to characterize the equivalence classes under local unitary transformations for the set of tripartite states whose partial trace with respect to one of the subsystems belongs to the class of CHG mixed states.

Separability and Entanglement of Identical Bosonic Systems

We investigate the separability of arbitrary $n$-dimensional multipartite identical bosonic systems. An explicit relation between the dimension and the separability is presented. In particular, for $n=3$, it is shown that the property of PPT (positive partial transpose) and the separability are equivalent for tripartite systems.

Equivalence of Tripartite Quantum States under Local Unitary Transformations

The equivalence of tripartite pure states under local unitary transformations is investigated. The nonlocal properties for a class of tripartite quantum states in $\Cb^K \otimes \Cb^M \otimes \Cb^N$ composite systems are investigated and a complete set of invariants under local unitary transformations for these states is presented. It is shown that two of these states are locally equivalent if and only if all these invariants have the same values.

Multipartite states under local unitary transformations

The equivalence problem under local unitary transformation for $n$--partite pure states is reduced to the one for $(n-1)$--partite mixed states. In particular, a tripartite system $\mathcal{H}_A\otimes\mathcal{H}_B\otimes\mathcal{H}_C$, where $\mathcal{H}_j$ is a finite dimensional complex Hilbert space for $j=A,B,C$, is considered and a set of invariants under local transformations is introduced, which is complete for the set of states whose partial trace with respect to $\mathcal{H}_A$ belongs to the class of generic mixed states.

Canonical Form and Separability of PPT States on Multiple Quantum Spaces

By using the "subtracting projectors" method in proving the separability of PPT states on multiple quantum spaces, we derive a canonical form of PPT states in ${\Cb}^{K_1} \otimes {\Cb}^{K_2} \otimes ... \otimes {\Cb}^{K_m} \otimes {\Cb}^N$ composite quantum systems with rank $N$, from which a sufficient separability condition for these states is presented.

Separability of rank two quantum states on multiple quantum spaces with different dimensions

We consider the separability of rank two quantum states on multiple quantum spaces with different dimensions. The sufficient and necessary conditions for separability of these multiparty quantum states are explicitly presented. A nonseparability inequality is also given, for the case where one of the eigenvectors corresponding to nonzero eigenvalues of the density matrix is maximally entangled.

Entropy fluctuations for directed polymers in 2+1 dimensions

We find numerically that the sample to sample fluctuation of the entropy, $ΔS$, is a tool more sensitive in distinguishing how from high temperature behaviors, than the corresponding fluctuation in the free energy. In 1+1 dimensions we find a single phase for all temperatures since $(ΔS)^{2}$ is always extensive. In 2+1 dimensions we find a behavior may look at first sight as a transition from a low temperature phase where $(ΔS)^{2}$ is extensive to a high temperature phase where it is subextensive. This is observed in spite of the relatively large system we use. The observed behavior is explained not as a phase transition but as a strong crossover behavior. We use an analytical agreement to obtain $(ΔS)^{2}$ for high temperature and find that while it is always extensive it is also extremly small and the leading extensive part decays very fast to zero as temperature is increased.

Directed polymers at finite temperatures in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions

We present systematic numerical simulations for directed polymers at finite temperatures in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions. The transverse fluctuations and free energy fluctuations tend to the strong coupling limit at any temperature in both 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions for long time t. Two different definitions for energy fluctuations at finite temperatures, which are the ensemble energy fluctuations and the internal energy fluctuations, are investigated. Apart from zero temperature, the behavior of the energy fluctuations and the free energy fluctuations for directed polymers is shown to be different. At finite temperatures, the ensemble energy fluctuations in both 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions and internal energy fluctuations in 1+1 dimensions scale as t^{1/2} where the free energy fluctuations in 1+1 dimensions and 2+1 dimensions scale as t^{1/3} and t^{0.2} respectively. As a consequence of that the specific heat in both 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions scales as t and the entropy fluctuations in 1+1 dimensions scale as t^{1/2} at any finite temperature.
