• Abstract: Third order parametric down-conversion describes a class of nonlinear processes in which a pump photon can be down-converted into triplets of photons. It has been identified as a source of non-classical light, with capabilities beyond those offered by better-established processes such as spontaneous four-wave mixing. Here we discuss the implementation of TOPDC in integrated photonic systems. We derive equations for the rates of TOPDC in a non-resonant (waveguide) and resonant (microring) platform, such that the scaling with experimental parameters can be plainly seen. We find that generally non-resonant platforms should be pursued for spontaneous TOPDC (SpTOPDC), whereas resonant platforms are more suitable for stimulated TOPDC (StTOPDC). We present a sample calculation for TOPDC rates in sample systems with conservative and accessible parameters. We find that StTOPDC should be observable with the current fabrication technology, and that with some progress in the design of TOPDC platforms, integrated SpTOPDC too could be demonstrated in the near term.

  Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) modes are an important resource used in various branches of quantum science and technology. We present a theoretical approach to the generation of correlated Schmidt modes carrying OAM via parametric down-conversion (PDC) We demonstrate how the number of generated modes and their population can be controlled by varying the pump parameters.

  Point Cloud Registration (PCR) estimates the relative rigid transformation between two point clouds. We propose formulating PCR as a denoising diffusion probabilistic process, mapping noisy transformations to the ground truth. Our experiments showcase the effectiveness of our DiffusionPCR, yielding state-of-the-art registration recall rates (95.3%/81.6%) on 3D and 3DLoMatch.

• Provably Efficient Algorithm for Nonstationary Low-Rank MDPs [48.92657638730582]
  We make the first effort to investigate nonstationary RL under episodic low-rank MDPs, where both transition kernels and rewards may vary over time. We propose a parameter-dependent policy optimization algorithm called PORTAL, and further improve PORTAL to its parameter-free version of Ada-PORTAL. For both algorithms, we provide upper bounds on the average dynamic suboptimality gap, which show that as long as the nonstationarity is not significantly large, PORTAL and Ada-PORTAL are sample-efficient and can achieve arbitrarily small average dynamic suboptimality gap with sample complexity.
