Bridging high-level synthesis to RTL technology libraries

The output of high-level synthesis typically consists of a netlist of generic RTL components and a state sequencing table. While module generators and logic synthesis tools can be used to map RTL components into standard cells or layout geometries, they cannot provide technology mapping into the data book libraries of functional RTL cells used commonly throughout the industrial design community. In this paper, we introduce an approach to implementing generic RTL components with technology-specific RTL library cells. This approach addresses the criticism of designers who feel that high-level synthesis tools should be used in conjunction with existing RTL data books. We describe how GENUS, a library of generic RTL components, is organized for use in high-level synthesis and how DTAS, a functional synthesis system, is used to map GENUS components into RTL library cells

New Solvable Singular Potentials

We obtain three new solvable, real, shape invariant potentials starting from the harmonic oscillator, P\"oschl-Teller I and P\"oschl-Teller II potentials on the half-axis and extending their domain to the full line, while taking special care to regularize the inverse square singularity at the origin. The regularization procedure gives rise to a delta-function behavior at the origin. Our new systems possess underlying non-linear potential algebras, which can also be used to determine their spectra analytically.Comment: 19 pages, 4 figure

Almost-zero-energy Eigenvalues of Some Broken Supersymmetric Systems

For a quantum mechanical system with broken supersymmetry, we present a simple method of determining the ground state when the corresponding energy eigenvalue is sufficiently small. A concise formula is derived for the approximate ground state energy in an associated, well-separated, asymmetric double-well-type potential. Our discussion is also relevant for the analysis of the fermion bound state in the kink-antikink scalar background.Comment: revised version, to be pubilshed in PR

Coordinate Realizations of Deformed Lie Algebras with Three Generators

Differential realizations in coordinate space for deformed Lie algebras with three generators are obtained using bosonic creation and annihilation operators satisfying Heisenberg commutation relations. The unified treatment presented here contains as special cases all previously given coordinate realizations of $so(2,1),so(3)$ and their deformations. Applications to physical problems involving eigenvalue determination in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics are discussed.Comment: 11 pages, 0 figure

Algebraic Shape Invariant Models

Motivated by the shape invariance condition in supersymmetric quantum mechanics, we develop an algebraic framework for shape invariant Hamiltonians with a general change of parameters. This approach involves nonlinear generalizations of Lie algebras. Our work extends previous results showing the equivalence of shape invariant potentials involving translational change of parameters with standard $SO(2,1)$ potential algebra for Natanzon type potentials.Comment: 8 pages, 2 figure

Strong magnetic coupling between an electronic spin qubit and a mechanical resonator

We describe a technique that enables a strong, coherent coupling between a single electronic spin qubit associated with a nitrogen-vacancy impurity in diamond and the quantized motion of a magnetized nano-mechanical resonator tip. This coupling is achieved via careful preparation of dressed spin states which are highly sensitive to the motion of the resonator but insensitive to perturbations from the nuclear spin bath. In combination with optical pumping techniques, the coherent exchange between spin and motional excitations enables ground state cooling and the controlled generation of arbitrary quantum superpositions of resonator states. Optical spin readout techniques provide a general measurement toolbox for the resonator with quantum limited precision

Analytical parametrization of fusion barriers using proximity potentials

Using the three versions of proximity potentials, namely proximity 1977, proximity 1988, and proximity 2000, we present a pocket formula for fusion barrier heights and positions. This was achieved by analyzing as many as 400 reactions with mass between 15 and 296. Our parametrized formula can reproduced the exact barrier heights and positions within an accuracy of $\pm1$. A comparison with the experimental data is also in good agreement.Comment: 12 pages, 5 figure

Energy and momentum relaxation of heavy fermion in dense and warm plasma

We determine the drag and the momentum diffusion coefficients of heavy fermion in dense plasma. It is seen that in degenerate matter drag coefficient at the leading order mediated by transverse photon is proportional to $(E-\mu)^2$ while for the longitudinal exchange this goes as $(E-\mu)^3$. We also calculate the longitudinal diffusion coefficient to obtain the Einstein relation in a relativistic degenerate plasma. Finally, finite temperature corrections are included both for the drag and the diffusion coefficients.Comment: 8 pages, 1 eps figure, typos corrected and paragraphs rearranged.
