Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC) has emerged as a promising technology for next-generation wireless networks. In this work, we tackle an ill-posed parameter estimation problem within ISAC, formulating it as a joint blind super-resolution and demixing problem. Leveraging the low-rank structures of the vectorized Hankel matrices associated with the unknown parameters, we propose a Riemannian gradient descent (RGD) method. Our theoretical analysis demonstrates that the proposed method achieves linear convergence to the target matrices under standard assumptions. Additionally, extensive numerical experiments validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

In the creation of Hopf topological matters, the old paradigm is to conceive the Hopf invariant first, and then display its intuitive topology through links. Here we brush aside this effort and put forward a new recipe for unraveling the quenched two-dimensional (2D) two-band Chern insulators under a parallel quench protocol, which implies that the quench quantities with different momentum k are parallel or antiparallel to each other. We find that whether the dynamical Hopf invariant exists or not, the links in (2+1)D space always keep their standard shape even for topological initial states, and trace out the trajectories of phase vortices. The linking number is exactly equal to the difference between pre- and post-quench Chern numbers regardless of the construction of homotopy groups. We employ two concrete examples to illustrate these results, highlighting the polarity reversal at fixed points.

We report a simple and compact design of a dispersion compensated mode-locked Yb:fiber oscillator based on a nonlinear amplifying loop mirror (NALM). The fully polarization maintaining (PM) fiber integrated laser features a chirped fiber Bragg grating (CFBG) for dispersion compensation and a fiber integrated compact non-reciprocal phase bias device, which is alignment-free. The main design parameters were determined by numerically simulating the pulse evolution in the oscillator and by analyzing their impact on the laser performance. Experimentally, we achieved an 88 fs compressed pulse duration with sub-fs timing jitter at 54 MHz repetition rate and 51 mW of output power with 5.5 * 10-5 [20 Hz, 1 MHz] integrated relative intensity noise (RIN). Furthermore, we demonstrate tight phase-locking of the laser's carrier-envelope offset frequency (fceo) to a stable radio frequency (RF) reference and of one frequency comb tooth to a stable optical reference at 291 THz., Comment: 8 pages, 11 figures, journal manuscript

We demonstrate a 0.95 GHz repetition rate fully stabilized Yb:fiber frequency comb without optical amplification. Benefitted from the high mode power and high coherence, this comb achieved 35 dB to 42 dB signal to noise ratio on the direct heterodyne beat signals with at least 6 continuous wave lasers (at 580nm, 679nm, 698nm, 707nm, 813nm and 922 nm) while keeping >40 dB carrier envelop frequency signal. It can be used for the direct measurement of optical frequencies in visible and near-infrared wavelengths, and has a great potential on simultaneous comparison of multiple optical frequencies.

We demonstrate a compact 29.3 GHz visible astro-comb covering the spectrum from 560nm to 700nm. A 837 MHz Yb:fiber laser frequency comb phase locked to a Rb clock served as the seed comb to ensure the frequency stability and high side mode suppression ratio. After the visible super-continuum generation, a cavity-length-fixed Fabry-Perot cavity made by ultra-low expansion glass was utilized to filter the comb teeth for eliminating the rapid active dithering. The mirrors were home-made complementary chirped mirrors pair with zero dispersion and high reflection to guarantee no mode skipping. These filtered comb teeth were clearly resolved in an astronomical spectrograph of 49,000 resolution, exhibiting sharp linetype, zero noise floor, and uniform exposure amplitude., Comment: 5 pages, 5 figures

We demonstrate two fully and tightly phase locked 750 MHz ytterbium (Yb) fiber frequency combs that are independently stabilized to a continuous wave (CW) laser with <1 rad RMS phase error. A bulk EOM and a single stack PZT are separately utilized as the fast actuators for cavity length stabilization. The carrier envelop frequencies are phase locked by single loop feedback to laser diode current, showing 1.6 MHz servo bumps. The in-loop fractional frequency instabilities are ~1.5e-18 at 1s for both combs. To the best of our knowledge, this is the highest repetition rate in fiber based low phase noise combs tightly locked to optical frequency reference., Comment: 4 pages, 5 figures, 1 table
