Time symmetry in quantum theories and beyond

There exists a stark tension among different formulations of quantum theory as some are inherently time-symmetric while others are time-asymmetric. This tension is crisply captured when considering physical theories as theories of processes. We present the process theory of quant...

Energy-Aware Scheduling and Beamforming for Simultaneous Wireless Information and Power Transfer in Low-Earth-Orbit Satellite and UAV Networks Using Lyapunov Optimization, Successive Convex Approximation, and WMMSE

The integration of low-Earth-orbit (LEO) satellites with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) promises high-throughput and flexible wireless connectivity, yet it faces critical challenges in simultaneously guaranteeing data rates and long-term energy harvesting under mobility and impe...
