Quantum-Fuzzy Tensor Operators for Multi-Qubit Conjunction, Disjunction, and Symmetry-Preserving State Discrimination
Abstract: The integration of fuzzy logic and quantum information theory raises a fundamental mathematical question: how can degrees of truth be encoded in multi-qubit amplitudes while preserving the unitary dynamics and symmetry structure of quantum state spaces? This paper develops a tensor-operator framework for implementing quantum-fuzzy logical operations on finite qubit registers. Fuzzy truth values are represented by normalized quantum amplitude pairs, enabling logical information to be embedded directly into quantum …

A Ventilated Dual-Function Photonic–Phononic Metasurface for Simultaneous Passive Radiative Cooling and Low-Frequency Noise Mitigation in Building Envelopes: Conceptual Design and Computational Feasibility Analysis
Abstract: Acoustic metamaterials for sound insulation and photonic/radiative-cooling metamaterials for passive thermal management have each matured separately for building-envelope retrofit, but existing studies address ventilation, acoustic damping and radiative thermal control in isolation, and no reported unit-cell architecture co-designs all three within a single shared structure. This gap persists because materials that are acoustic absorptive are generally dense and structurally opaque, whereas materials that are highly solar-reflective are conventionally applied to …

A STUDY OF INDIAN FEMALE SUBSTANCE ABUSERS IN TREATMENT DEMOGRAPHIC AND PSYCHOMETRIC VARIABLES
Abstract: THE ADDICTIVE PROCESSThe drug epidemic is several decades old in India. It has moved from culturally accepted recreational phenomena towards the newer drug use of Heroin, ocaine and other designer drugs. Routes of administration have shifted from oral intake and inhalation to chasing and injecting drug use. While this, in a way, represents man’s hedonistic nature, it is also a symptom of the inherent dysfunction in society and its social …
