Two qubit copying machine for economical quantum eavesdropping
Creators: name: Niu, Chi-Sheng

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the mapping which occurs when a single qubit in an arbitrary state interacts with another qubit in a given, fixed state resulting in some unitary transformation on the two qubit system which, in effect, makes two copies of the first qubit. The general problem of the quality of the resulting copies is discussed using a special representation, a generalization of the usual Schmidt decomposition, of an arbitrary two-dimensional subspace of a tensor product of two 2-dimensional Hilbert spaces. We exhibit quantum circuits which can reproduce the results of any two qubit copying machine of this type. A simple stochastic generalization (using a ``classical'' random signal) of the copying machine is also considered. These copying machines provide simple embodiments of previously proposed optimal eavesdropping schemes for the BB84 and B92 quantum cryptography protocols.

AN INTERTEMPORAL APPLIED GENERAL EQUILIBRIUM MODEL BASED ON ORANI

Year: 1992
Subjects: Research Methods/ Statistical Methods

description: The ORANI model of the Australian economy [Dixon, Parmenter, Sutton and Vincent (1982)] has been used extensively to analyse issues involving the composition of the economy. ORANI is essentially comparative static in nature; it does not project the trajectory of the economy between the initial point at which a shock occurs and the new equilibrium configuration. Even in the forecasting version of ORANI, ORANI-F [Parmenter (1988)], results show only average annual growth rates over the length of run simulated. The usefulness of intertemporal applied general equilibrium models is well documented (see for example Dixon (1990), Dixon and Parmenter (1990) and Dixon, Parmenter, Powell and Wilcoxen (forthcoming)). The purpose of this paper is to describe a computational approach to an intertemporal elaboration of ORANI. This implementation is motivated by the work of Dixon and Parmenter (1990). The prototype model described here offers the prospect of comparative dynamic 'simulations with a detailed applied general equilibrium model.

description: Following a strong analogy with two-dimensional physics, the three-body pseudo-potential in one dimension is derived. The Born approximation is then considered in the context of ultracold atoms in a linear harmonic waveguide. In the vicinity of the dimer threshold a direct connection is made between the zero-range potential and the dimensional reduction of the three-body Schr{ö}dinger equation.

description: Background: Damage to the supplementary motor area (SMA) can lead to impairments of motor and language function. A detailed preoperative mapping of functional boarders of the SMA could therefore aid preoperative diagnostics in these patients. Objective: The aim of this study was the development of a repetitive nTMS protocol for non-invasive functional mapping of the SMA while assuring effects are caused by SMA rather than M1 activation. Methods: The SMA in the dominant hemisphere of 12 healthy subjects (28.2 +/- 7.7 years, 6 females) was mapped using repetitive nTMS at 20 Hz (120% RMT), while subjects performed a finger tapping task. Reductions in finger taps were classified in three error categories (<= 15% = no errors, 15-30% = mild, >30% significant). The location and category of induced errors was marked in each subject's individual MRI. Effects of SMA stimulation were then directly compared to effects of M1 stimulation in four different tasks (finger tapping, writing, line tracing, targeting circles). Results: Mapping of the SMA was possible for all subjects, yet effect sizes varied. Stimulation of the SMA led to a significant reduction of finger taps compared to baseline (BL: 45taps, SMA: 35.5taps; p < 0.01). Line tracing, writing and targeting of circles was less accurate during SMA compared to M1 stimulation. Conclusion: Mapping of the SMA using repetitive nTMS is feasible. While errors induced in the SMA are not entirely independent of M1, disruption of the SMA induces functionally distinct errors. These error maps can aid preoperative diagnostics in patients with SMA related lesions.

description: 18F-FDG-PET/CT is standard to assess response in Hodgkin lymphoma by quantifying metabolic activity with the Deauville score. PET/CT, however, is time-consuming, cost-extensive, linked to high radiation and has a low availability. As an alternative, we investigated radiomics from non-contrast-enhanced computed tomography (NECT) scans. 75 PET/CT examinations of 43 patients on two different scanners were included. Target lesions were classified as Deauville score 4 positive (DS4+) or negative (DS4-) based on their SUVpeak and then segmented in NECT images. From these segmentations, 107 features were extracted with PyRadiomics. All further statistical analyses were then performed scanner-wise: differences between DS4+ and DS4- manifestations were assessed with the Mann-Whitney-U-test and single feature performances with the ROC-analysis. To further verify the reliability of the results, the number of features was reduced using different techniques. The feature median showed a high sensitivity for DS4+ manifestations on both scanners (scanner A: 0.91, scanner B: 0.85). It furthermore was the only feature that remained in both datasets after applying different feature reduction techniques. The feature median from NECT concordantly has a high sensitivity for DS4+ Hodgkin manifestations on two different scanners and thus could provide a surrogate for increased metabolic activity in PET/CT.
Constraints on $f(R)$ theories of gravity from GW170817

description: A novel constraint on $f(R)$ theories of gravity is obtained from the gravitational wave signal emitted from the binary neutron star merger event GW170817. The $f(R)$ theories possess an additional massive scalar degree of freedom apart from the massless spin-2 modes. The corresponding scalar field contributes an additional attractive, short-ranged "fifth" force affecting the gravitational wave radiation process. We realize that chameleon screening is necessary to conform with the observation. A model independent bound $\vert f'(R_0) -1\vert < 3\times 10^{-3}$ has been obtained, where the prime denotes the derivative with respect $R$ and $R_0$ is the curvature of our Universe at present. Though we use the nonrelativistic approximations and obtain an order of magnitude estimate of the bound, it comes from direct observations of gravitational waves and thus it is worth noting. This bound is stronger/equivalent compared to some earlier other bounds such as from the Cassini mission in the Solar-System, Supernova monopole radiation, the observed CMB spectrum, galaxy cluster density profile, etc., although it is weaker than best current constraints ($\vert f'(R_0) -1\vert \lesssim 10^{-6}$) from cosmology. Using the bound obtained, we also constrain the parameter space in the $f(R)$ theories of dark energy like Hu-Sawicki, Starobinsky, and Tsujikawa models.

description: Power-law-shaped avalanche-size distributions are widely used to probe for critical behavior in many different systems, particularly in neural networks. The definition of avalanche is ambiguous. Usually, theoretical avalanches are defined as the activity between a stimulus and the relaxation to an inactive absorbing state. On the other hand, experimental neuronal avalanches are defined by the activity between consecutive silent states. We claim that the latter definition may be extended to some theoretical models to characterize their power-law avalanches and critical behavior. We study a system in which the separation of driving and relaxation time scales emerges from its structure. We apply both definitions of avalanche to our model. Both yield power-law-distributed avalanches that scale with system size in the critical point as expected. Nevertheless, we find restricted power-law-distributed avalanches outside of the critical region within the experimental procedure, which is not expected by the standard theoretical definition. We remark that these results are dependent on the model details.

Sensitivity, Affine Transforms and Quantum Communication Complexity

Subjects: subject: Computational Complexity (cs.CC)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: $\newcommand{\F}{\mathbb{F}}$We study the Boolean function parameters sensitivity ($s$), block sensitivity ($bs$), and alternation ($alt$) under specially designed affine transforms. For a function $f:\F_2^n\to \{0,1\}$, and $A=Mx+b$ for $M \in \F_2^{n\times n}$ and $b\in \F_2^n$, the result of the transformation $g$ is defined as $\forall x\in\F_2^n, g(x)=f(Mx+b)$. We study alternation under linear shifts ($M$ is the identity matrix) called the shift invariant alternation (denoted by $salt(f)$). We exhibit an explicit family of functions for which $salt(f)$ is $2^{Ω(s(f))}$. We show an affine transform $A$, such that the corresponding function $g$ satisfies $bs(f,0^n) \le s(g)$, using which we proving that for $F(x,y)=f(x\land y)$, the bounded error quantum communication complexity of $F$ with prior entanglement, $Q^*_{1/3}(F)=Ω(\sqrt{bs(f,0^n)})$. Our proof builds on ideas from Sherstov (2010) where we use specific properties of the above affine transformation. We show, * For a prime $p$ and $0 2$, the deterministic communication complexity - $D(F)$ and $Q^*_{1/3}(F)$ are polynomially related. In particular, this holds when $deg_p(f) = O(1)$. Thus, for this class of functions, this answers an open question (see Buhrman and deWolf (2001)) about the relation between the two measures. We construct linear transformation $A$, such that $g$ satisfies, $alt(f) \le 2s(g)+1$. Using this, we exhibit a family of Boolean functions that rule out a potential approach to settle the XOR Log-Rank conjecture via a proof of Sensitivity conjecture [Hao Huang (2019)].

description: This work addresses the critical need for multifunctional materials and substrate-independent high-precision surface modification techniques that are essential for advancing microdevices and sensing elements. To overcome existing limitations, the versatility of mussel-inspired materials (MIMs) is combined with state-of-the-art multiphoton direct laser writing (DLW) microfabrication. In this way, 2D and 3D MIM microstructures of complex designs are demonstrated with sub-micron to micron resolution and extensive post-functionalization capabilities. This study includes polydopamine (PDA), mussel-inspired linear, and dendritic polyglycerols (MI-lPG and MI-dPG), allowing their direct microstructure on the substrate of choice with the option to tailor the patterned topography and morphology in a controllable manner. The functionality potential of MIMs is demonstrated by successfully immobilizing and detecting single-stranded DNA on MIM micropattern and nanoarray surfaces. In addition, easy modification of MIM microstructure with silver nanoparticles without the need of any reducing agent is shown. The methodology developed here enables the integration of MIMs in advanced applications where precise surface functionalization is essential.

description: Recent decisions at the Convention on Biological Diversity's (CBD) 15th Conference of the Parties (COP15) on access and benefit-sharing (ABS) fundamentally shift how ABS will work in the future. The key ABS challenges that now lie ahead will be to integrate digital sequence information into a functioning benefit-sharing mechanism compatible with the Nagoya Protocol, to address the difficult task of measuring benefit-sharing now required by the Global Biodiversity Framework, and ultimately to address the long-term challenges of the Nagoya Protocol’s bilateral ABS approach. The relevant COP15 decisions do not provide simple and quick answers to these challenges. However, they do lay the groundwork for change and could form the basis for the further development of effective access and benefit-sharing.

However, they failed and were institutionalized under the name ‘National Productivity Boards’ as largely non-binding advisory bodies.

description: We describe a series of atom optics experiments underway at Toronto for investigating tunnelling interaction times of various sorts. We begin by discussing some outstanding issues and confusions related to the question of whether or not superluminal tunnelling can be construed as true faster-than-light ``signal propagation,'' a question which we answer in the negative. We then argue that atom optics is an arena ideally suited for addressing a variety of remaining questions about how, where, and for how long a particle interacts with a tunnel barrier. We present recent results on a modified ``delta-kick cooling'' scheme which we have used to prepare Rubidium atoms with one-dimensional de Broglie wavelengths on the order of an optical wavelength, along with simulations showing that from these temperatures, we will be able to use acousto-optically modulated dipole-force barriers to velocity-select ultracold atom samples ideal for future tunnelling experiments.

description: Background: Due to the increasing use of online health information, symptom checkers have been developed to provide an individualized assessment of health complaints and provide potential diagnoses and an urgency estimation. It is assumed that they support patient empowerment and have a positive impact on patient-physician interaction and satisfaction with care. Particularly in the emergency department (ED), symptom checkers could be integrated to bridge waiting times in the ED, and patients as well as physicians could take advantage of potential positive effects. Our study therefore aims to assess the impact of symptom assessment application (SAA) usage compared to no SAA usage on the patient-physician interaction in self-referred walk-in patients in the ED population. Methods: In this multi-center, 1:1 randomized, controlled, parallel-group superiority trial, 440 self-referred adult walk-in patients with a non-urgent triage category will be recruited in three EDs in Berlin. Eligible participants in the intervention group will use a SAA directly after initial triage. The control group receives standard care without using a SAA. The primary endpoint is patients'satisfaction with the patient-physician interaction assessed by the Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire. Discussion: The results of this trial could influence the implementation of SAA into acute care to improve the satisfaction with the patient-physician interaction.

description: The collision of ultrashort high-density $e^-$ or $e^-$ and $e^+$ beams at 10s of GeV, to be available at the FACET II and in laser wakefield accelerator experiments, can produce highly collimated $γ$ rays (few GeVs) with peak brilliance of $10^{27}~\mathrm{ph/s~mm^2 mrad^2 0.1\% BW}$ and up to $10^5$ nonlinear Breit-Wheeler pairs. We provide analytical estimates of the photon source properties and of the yield of secondary pairs, finding excellent agreement with full-scale 3D self-consistent particle-in-cell simulations that include quantum electrodynamics effects. Our results show that beam-beam collisions can be exploited as secondary sources of $γ$ rays and provide an alternative to beam-laser setups to probe quantum electrodynamics effects at the Schwinger limit.

Assessment of the degree of income inequality in these nations therefore largely depended on the choice of a specific year and country.

description: Molecular sequence data have transformed research on cryptogams (e.g., lichens, microalgae, fungi, and symbionts thereof) but methods are still strongly hampered by the small size and intermingled growth of the target organisms, poor cultivability and detrimental effects of their secondary metabolites. Here, we aim to showcase examples on which a modified direct PCR approach for diverse aspects of molecular work on environmental samples concerning biocrusts, biofilms, and cryptogams gives new options for the research community. Unlike traditional approaches, this methodology only requires biomass equivalent to colonies and fragments of 0.2 mm in diameter, which can be picked directly from the environmental sample, and includes a quick DNA lysis followed by a standardized PCR cycle that allows co-cycling of various organisms/target regions in the same run. We demonstrate that this modified method can (i) amplify the most widely used taxonomic gene regions and those used for applied and environmental sciences from single colonies and filaments of free-living cyanobacteria, bryophytes, fungi, and lichens, including their mycobionts, chlorobionts, and cyanobionts from both isolates and in situ material during co-cycling; (ii) act as a tool to confirm that the dominant lichen photobiont was isolated from the original sample; and (iii) optionally remove inhibitory secondary lichen substances. Our results represent examples which highlight the method’s potential for future applications covering mycology, phycology, biocrusts, and lichenology, in particular.
Provision of Public and Merit Goods Towards an Optimal Policy Mix?

description: This paper is part of a larger UNUIWIDER research project which examines the problems of the provision of basic social goods, such as health care, education, maternal care and safe water, in the developing countries. These services have characteristics in common with quasi-public goods, and the debate on their provision and financing has revolved around two topics: state provision and market provision (based either on the concept of market failure or government failure). We are here interested in new models of provision according to which, in addition to the state and the private for-profit sector, the non-governmental sector and civil society play an important role. We have also introduced most of the issues to be studied further during the project. To find an optimal model for provision, our attention, instead of being devoted to two players, the state and markets, should be focused on the interaction of four agents: the family, the state, the private for-profit sector (usually called the 'market') and the non-governmental non-profit sector ('civil society'). The picture of provision is incomplete if any of these players are overlooked. The paper first offers an overview of the current problems in the provision of public services in developing countries. Second, the arguments concerning market failure and state provision are reviewed, together with those on government failure and market provision in an historical context. Then, the actual policy mix for provision is examined. This varies from country to country. The origin of current failures is not always clear. Are the failures due to imperfections in the market or to policy imperfections? As an optimal mix of providers, the study suggests a situation in which the combined effect of market and public failures is minimized. We also believe that this 'new' model requires the interaction of different players and that the players have unique strengths and weaknesses which need to be assessed in order to find the optimal mix. We find that the strengths of non-profit organizations may be centred on the ability to avoid certain collective action failures and especially the use of participatory methods to motivate people and deal with the problems of information more efficiently than competitive organizations are able to do. Finally, problems in social policy implementation are studied, with a focus on the role of institutions and social capital. We argue that weak institutions and insufficient social capital are the major reasons for weaknesses in social service provision in virtually all developing countries. In conclusion, we argue on behalf of the promotion of human and social capital as instruments in the development process. Government involvement is needed in order to set the targets and goals of provision. The capacity of the people must be utilized, and to accomplish this the participatory approach and the involvement of non-profit non-governmental organizations are essential.

description: According to information issued at the World Food Summit held in Rome in 1996, about one­ fifth of the world's population is now living under the poverty line, and this number is increase by 25 million people in developing countries every year. For the purpose of maintaining social stability and sustainable economic development, poverty reduction and eradication have therefore become an historical mission of all developing countries, as well as of the international community. Through market-oriented economic reforms and rapid growth strategies, China has achieved tremendous success during the past 18 years in the reduction of rural poverty. The number of the rural poor declined from 250 million in 1978 to 65 million in 1995 (IRD, CASS and SSB 1996). However, some negative results have also emerged in the performance of poverty alleviation programmes in the ongoing transition of economic systems, and these have apparently retarded the overall progress. Thus, poverty alleviation strategies for the rest of the decade must be rethought, and assistance programmes for the poor must be modified. This paper offers an overview of the issues in rural poverty. The overview is based on existing data on poverty. The paper then examines two major poverty reduction programmes (a public works programme and a rural credit programme). Finally, possible methods to solve the problems encountered in the implementation of these programmes are outlined.

description: Type IIB superstring models with the standard model gauge group on D3-branes and with massless matter associated with open strings joining D3-branes to D3-branes or D3-branes to ${\rm D}7_3$-branes are studied. Models with gauge coupling constant unification at an intermediate scale between about $10^{10}$ and $10^{12}$GeV and consistency with the observed value of $\sin^2 θ_W (M_Z)$ are obtained. Extra vector-like states and extra pairs of Higgs doublets play a crucial role.

A Review of Welfare Changes in Asian Transitional Economies

Subjects: International Development

description: In examining the welfare situation, this paper explores the relationship between economic changes and social development in Asian transition economies. Under the central planning system, achievements in human development in these countries were commonly greater than the level of economic development might have indicated. This pattern, however, no longer stands true during transition. Human development tends to suffer or not to have corresponding improvement not only because of economic performances, but also as a result of inadequate social policies. The research emphasises human welfare as the ultimate goal of transition, suggesting a need to move away from a one-sided focus on economic growth to a people oriented approach through the adoption of policies which place the well-being of the population at the centre of transitional and development strategies.

description: The environmental impact of unsustainable CO2 emissions calls for immediate action. One of the main methods for large-scale reduction of CO2 emissions is conversion of carbon dioxide to valuable feedstocks like energy carriers or chemicals. Realization of this goal requires catalysts showing high-performance characteristics under the relevant industrial conditions. In recent years, In2O3-based catalysts have been discussed as target materials for conversion of CO2 to methanol in the presence of hydrogen. Optimization of this catalytic system via conventional routes requires massive resources in terms of extensive testing, synthesis, and characterization. In our study, we take an alternative approach and exploit high-throughput computation to create a database for oxygen vacancy formation energy and explore a large number of candidates, which motivates the selection of a subset of materials for the synthesis of bulk and supported catalysts, to be tested in hydrogenation of CO2 to methanol. The method shows the impact, as results show improved performance for selected candidates, compared to the reference In2O3-system. This confirms the potential of the selected descriptors as criteria for a new way of targeted design of alternative catalysts.
The Investement Decline in Transition Economies: Policy Versus Non-Policy Factors

description: All centrally planned economies suffered from over-investment. Due to low capital productivity, reasonable growth rates in output could be maintained only with high investment/GDP ratios. Nevertheless, the sharp reduction in investment during transformational recession and its slow growth during subsequent recovery are viewed as negative phenomena, since transition economies offer numerous opportunities to increase output with relatively small targeted investment.This paper seeks to develop the hypothesis that the performance of aggregate investment during transition is a result of the impact of initial conditions, the external environment and policy-related factors. Strong evidence is found for the argument that the reduction of output and investment observed in most post-communist countries is associated with the supply-side recession, which in turn is linked mostly to the initial conditions, such as the level of development (GDP per capita) and pre-transition disproportions in industrial structure and trade patterns.However, declines in investment/GDP ratios, i.e more pronounced declines in investment as compared to GDP, may be only partially explained by the initial distortions in trade and in industrial structure. Equally important are such factors as the unfavourable external environment, as measured by changes in the current account balance, and macroeconomic policy developments, as measured by changes in government budget deficits. Predictably, progress in liberalisation does not have any impact on patterns of change in investment. The unexpected result is that investment changes do not seem to depend on rates of inflation.

description: $\newcommand{\EC}{\mathsf{EC}}\newcommand{\KW}{\mathsf{KW}}\newcommand{\DT}{\mathsf{DT}}\newcommand{\psens}{\mathsf{psens}} \newcommand{\calB}{\cal B} $ For a Boolean function $f:\{0,1\}^n \to \{0,1\}$ computed by a circuit $C$ over a finite basis $\mathcal{B}$, the energy complexity of $C$ (denoted by $\EC_{\calB}(C)$) is the maximum over all inputs $\{0,1\}^n$ the numbers of gates of the circuit $C$ (excluding the inputs) that output a one. Energy Complexity of a Boolean function over a finite basis $\calB$ denoted by $\EC_\calB(f):= \min_C \EC_{\calB}(C)$ where $C$ is a circuit over $\calB$ computing $f$. We study the case when $\calB = \{\land_2, \lor_2, \lnot\}$, the standard Boolean basis. It is known that any Boolean function can be computed by a circuit (with potentially large size) with an energy of at most $3n(1+ε(n))$ for a small $ ε(n)$(which we observe is improvable to $3n-1$). We show several new results and connections between energy complexity and other well-studied parameters of Boolean functions. * For all Boolean functions $f$, $\EC(f) \le O(\DT(f)^3)$ where $\DT(f)$ is the optimal decision tree depth of $f$. * We define a parameter \textit{positive sensitivity} (denoted by $\psens$), a quantity that is smaller than sensitivity and defined in a similar way, and show that for any Boolean circuit $C$ computing a Boolean function $f$, $ \EC(C) \ge \psens(f)/3$. * For a monotone function $f$, we show that $\EC(f) = Ω(\KW^+(f))$ where $\KW^+(f)$ is the cost of monotone Karchmer-Wigderson game of $f$. * Restricting the above notion of energy complexity to Boolean formulas, we show $\EC(F) = Ω\left (\sqrt{L(F)}-depth(F)\right )$ where $L(F)$ is the size and $depth(F)$ is the depth of a formula $F$.
