TL;DR: The uncertainty principle in its original form ignores, however, the unavoidable effect of recoil in the measuring device as discussed by the authors, and the original formulation is broken by an experimental test now validates an alternative relation.
Abstract: According to Heisenberg, the more precisely, say, the position of a particle is measured, the less precisely we can determine its momentum. The uncertainty principle in its original form ignores, however, the unavoidable effect of recoil in the measuring device. An experimental test now validates an alternative relation, and the uncertainty principle in its original formulation is broken.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider the problem of optimal risk sharing of some given total risk between two economic agents characterized by law-invariant monetary utility functions or equivalently, law invariant risk measures.
Abstract: We consider the problem of optimal risk sharing of some given total risk between two economic agents characterized by law-invariant monetary utility functions or equivalently, law-invariant risk measures. We first prove existence of an optimal risk sharing allocation which is in addition increasing in terms of the total risk. We next provide an explicit characterization in the case where both agents’ utility functions are comonotone. The general form of the optimal contracts turns out to be given by a sum of options (stop-loss contracts, in the language of insurance) on the total risk. In order to show the robustness of this type of contracts to more general utility functions, we introduce a new notion of strict risk aversion conditionally on lower tail events, which is typically satisfied by the semi-deviation and the entropic risk measures. Then, in the context of an AV@R-agent facing an agent with strict monotone preferences and exhibiting strict risk aversion conditional on lower tail events, we prove that optimal contracts again are European options on the total risk.

TL;DR: The local scattering function (LSF) and the channel correlation function (CCF) are introduced and shown to characterize, respectively, the mean power and the correlation of non-WSSUS scatterers.
Abstract: We propose a novel framework for the statistical characterization of fading dispersive channels that do not satisfy the assumption of wide-sense stationary uncorrelated scattering (WSSUS). The local scattering function (LSF) and the channel correlation function (CCF) are introduced and shown to characterize, respectively, the mean power and the correlation of non-WSSUS scatterers. Furthermore, the practically important class of doubly underspread (DU) channels is introduced, and it is shown that for DU channels, the LSF has numerous useful properties. The practical relevance of our approach is illustrated via application examples and numerical experiments.

08 May 2007TL;DR: This paper shifts attention from the tree-based representation of webpages to a variation of the two-dimensional visual box model used by web browsers to display the information on the screen and believes that this approach can become the basis for a new way of large-scale knowledge acquisition from the current "Visual Web".
Abstract: Traditionally, information extraction from web tables has focused on small, more or less homogeneous corpora, often based on assumptions about the use of tags. A multitude of different HTML implementations of web tables make these approaches difficult to scale. In this paper, we approach the problem of domain-independent information extraction from web tables by shifting our attention from the tree-based representation of webpages to a variation of the two-dimensional visual box model used by web browsers to display the information on the screen. The there by obtained topological and style information allows us to fill the gap created by missing domain-specific knowledge about content and table templates. We believe that, in a future step, this approach can become the basis for a new way of large-scale knowledge acquisition from the current "Visual Web.

TL;DR: The interaction between single quantum emitters and non-transversally polarized photons for which the electric field vector amplitude has a significant component in the direction of propagation is investigated.
Abstract: Light is often described as a fully transverse-polarized wave, i.e., with an electric field vector that is orthogonal to the direction of propagation. However, light confined in dielectric structures such as optical waveguides or whispering-gallery-mode microresonators can have a strong longitudinal polarization component. Here, using single $^{85}\mathrm{Rb}$ atoms strongly coupled to a whispering-gallery-mode microresonator, we experimentally and theoretically demonstrate that the presence of this longitudinal polarization fundamentally alters the interaction between light and matter.
