ED NELSON'S WORK IN QUANTUM THEORY

Abstract

It is a pleasure to contribute to this celebration of Ed Nelson’s scientific work, not only because of the importance of that work but because it allows me an opportunity to express my gratitude and acknowledge my enormous debt to Ed. He and Arthur Wightman were the key formulative influences on my education, not only as a graduate student but during my early postdoctoral years. Thanks, Ed!

My first thanks go to Jeff Kimble for providing me the opportunity to work in this exciting field, and to be a part of his outstanding research group. Needless to say, his tireless efforts have played an instrumental role in the progress we’ve made these past few years. Beyond this direct contribution, I have learned immeasurable amounts from him, not only in terms of scientific skills both theoretical and experimental. I also owe a debt of gratitude to my colleagues from Lab 11, where all the work in this thesis was done. This list begins with David Vernooy and Jun Ye, who constructed the heart of the experiment, which continues to beat to this day. Postdoctoral fellows Dan Stamper-Kurn and Hanns-Christoph Nägerl provided excellent leadership, and I learned a great deal from both of them. Special thanks also go to Joe Buck, with whom our first real breakthroughs were achieved. Joe was a great friend and colleague throughout both the good times and the months before that weren’t quite as pleasant. Alex Kuzmich provided several important scientific contributions to our lab, which are greatly appreciated. Andreea Boca, David Boozer and Russ Miller have been tremendous friends and co-workers, and a separate paragraph of gratitude could be written about each of them. Amazing progress already being made as of this writing is a testament to the fact that the lab could not be

Asymmetric Splitting of Bose-Einstein Condensate

My life has been a blessing from God in many ways.First and foremost, I would like to thank professors Cass Sackett and Bill Soffa for encouraging and never giving up on me.The completion of my study could not have happened without them.In reaching the apex of my endeavor, I am forever indebted in gratefulness.Without their help, this would have been an impossible journey.They also inspired me to consider teaching as my new goal.Despite other lucrative offers, I believe teaching has a true meaning and purpose for me.I'd also like to thank graduate students in Casslab, especially Rob Horne, who shared the burden of making our experiment a successful one.My life re-started in the states at ten years old, when barely speaking a word of English, Bob Schmitt and Greg Bartman became my lifelong friends.Mr. & Mrs (Mom) Bartman never seemed to get tired of my coming over to their house/beach house living like a son who never paid rent.In Laurel high school, I would like to thank Mr. Swartz for making math an approachable subject.I must also thank Mr/Coach Chuck Hickes for believing in my success -not only were you my football coach, you coached me in so many other ways in life!At Swarthmore, Professor John Gaustad took me under his wings and taught me how to study and do research.You did everything you could to make sure I could be successful at research through experiments.My 6 years spent at NASA proved to be a very valuable experience in many ways.Ed Cheng, Dale Fixsen, and John Mather were three significant influences in my life.I still remember Casey Inman teaching me how to make circuits.I had an unforgettable experience at Antarctica, running the CMBR experiment.It's funny how one opportunity leads to another, who would have thought I'd meet my wife Yeonju (Sarah) there, and name our daughters Erebus and Terranova after the mountains in Antarctica.My 14 years at the Naval Research Lab are unforgettable ones.It took me everywhere including Afghanistan.My thanks go to Charmaine Gilbreath, who provided the opportunity for me to pursue graduate studies.Before coming to UVa, my short stint at GWU was not a waste.I'd like to thank professor Helmut Haberzettl for his German way of physics.I also like to

SECURITY ANALYSIS OF A BASIS-INDEPENDENT SCHEME FOR QUANTUM CRYPTOGRAPHY

Gelo Noel, M. Tabia

To my family, who are always there for me... Acknowledgements First and foremost, I wish to express my sincerest gratitude to my thesis supervisor Prof. Berge Englert, for giving me with an interesting and fascinating topic to explore, for providing me valuable insights at various stages of the project, such as extremely helpful advice on which promising ideas to pursue and which veritable methods to attempt, and most especially for his mild-mannered approach and utmost patience in dealing with my struggles in this entire endeavor. I would also like to express my heartfelt appreciation for all the support I have re-ceived from the Centre for Quantum Technologies, mostly in the form of facilities that definitely eased the burden of the many little chores of research like printing documents. I would also like to thank the NUS Department of Physics for a providing me with a wonderful opportunity to teach tutorial classes during the final stages of my thesis write-up, an experience that I feel will be valuable for many years to come.
