APEs are Asymptotically Poincar\'e-Einstein manifolds. I will first review the zoology of APEs and their relatives, which are various classes of Conformally Compactifiable manifolds. I will show that APEs have nice properties under the Ricci flow. Namely, if a manifold is initially APE, it remains APE under the flow, and if the mass is defined then it is monotonic. The conformal anomaly, by...

Squeezed coherent quantum states are defined as eigenstates of a linear combination of ladder operators associated to a given system. They depend on the coherence and squeezing parameters. We present different types of states which generalize the usual coherent states of the harmonic oscillator. We describe some of their properties linked with quasi classicality and we compute the...

The recent observation of the Dynamical Casimir Effect (DCE) was possible due to the fast modulation of the boundary using circuit QED. In this work, I investigate the DCE where the boundary follows different relativistic oscillatory motions. I obtain the relation between the effective temperature of the radiation and the acceleration of the boundary, showing that it yields an effective...
