Quantum parameter estimation and state discrimination in continuous variable quantum optics
Creators: name: Bradshaw, Mark
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: Exemplified by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle, quantum mechanics imposes a fundamental limit to the precision we can measure complementary properties of an object, for example position and momentum. Similarly, quantum mechanics tells us there is a limit to which we can discriminate between two quantum states that are nonorthogonal. Therefore, it is an interesting question to ask, given the laws of quantum mechanics, what exactly is the best measurement outcome we can achieve? This thesis examines various problems related to quantum state discrimination and quantum parameter estimation of continuous variable quantum states. We first examine quantum illumination, which can be regarded as a quantum state discrimination problem, where a quantum probe state is used to determine the presence or absence of an object in a noisy environment. If we use a probe that is quantum entangled with another probe, we can obtain a better performance outcome than is possible by using a probe without entanglement. We show that the source of enhancement is due to quantum discord. We also investigate what is the best probe state when entanglement is not used (conventional illumination) and when entanglement is used (quantum illumination). We analytically prove the optimal probe for various cases, and also provide some numerical results. We also investigate the optimal estimation of parameters that parametrise a quantum state. We provide methods of calculating the Holevo Cramer Rao bound, which is a useful quantity for quantum parameter estimation. The Holevo Cramer Rao bound not only is a good lower bound to the sum of the mean squared error, in some cases it can provide a measurement that obtains it. We consider the example of the estimation of conjugate quadrature parameters of a displacement experienced by one mode of a two-mode EPR state. We not only prove that the near-optimal measurement scheme proposed by previous authors is optimal for high squeezing, we find a different measurement that is optimal for low squeezing. Finally, we investigate using a probabilistic amplifier for quantum state discrimination and parameter estimation for coherent states. We find that the probabilistic amplifier results in improvement in discrimination and parameter estimation of coherent states under certain conditions such as when there is a high cost associated with measuring a sample.

description: The intrinsic decay rate of orthopositronium formed in ${\rm SiO_2}$ powder is measured using the direct $2γ$ correction method such that the time dependence of the pick-off annihilation rate is precisely determined using high energy-resolution germanium detectors. As a systematic test, two different types of ${\rm SiO_2}$ powder are used with consistent findings. The intrinsic decay rate of orthopositronium is found to be $7.0396\pm0.0012 (stat.)\pm0.0011 (sys.)μs^{-1}$, which is consistent with previous measurements using ${\rm SiO_2}$ powder with about twice the accuracy. Results agree well with a recent $O(α^2)$ QED prediction, varying $3.8-5.6$ experimental standard deviations from other measurements.

description: Energies of (3s2 3p6 3d9 4l4l'), (3s2 3p5 3d10 4l4l'), and (3s 3p6 3d10 4l4l') states for Cu-like ions with Z = 30 -100 are evaluated to second order in relativistic many-body perturbation theory (RMBPT) starting from a Ni-like Dirac-Fock potential. Second-order Coulomb and Breit-Coulomb interactions are included. Correction for the frequency-dependence of the Breit interaction is taken into account in lowest order. The Lamb shift correction to energies is also included in lowest order. Intrinsic particle-particle-hole contributions to energies are found to be 20-30% of the sum of one- and two-body contributions. Transition rates and line strengths are calculated for the 3l-4l' electric-dipole (E1) transitions in Cu-like ions with nuclear charge Z = 30 - 100. RMBPT including the Breit interaction is used to evaluate retarded E1 matrix elements in length and velocity forms. First-order RMBPT is used to obtain intermediate coupling coefficients and second-order RMBPT is used to calculate transition matrix elements. A detailed discussion of the various contributions to the dipole matrix elements and energy levels is given for copperlike tungsten (Z = 74). The transition energies used in the calculation of oscillator strengths and transition rates are from second-order RMBPT. Trends of the transition rates as functions of $Z$ are illustrated graphically for selected transitions. Comparisons are made with available experimental data. These atomic data are important in modeling of M-shell radiation spectra of heavy ions generated in electron beam ion trap experiments and in M-shell diagnostics of plasmas.

description: Solving combinatorial optimization problems on current noisy quantum devices is currently being advocated for (and restricted to) binary polynomial optimization with equality constraints via quantum heuristic approaches. This is achieved using, e.g., the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) and the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA). We present a decomposition-based approach to extend the applicability of current approaches to "quadratic plus convex" mixed binary optimization (MBO) problems, so as to solve a broad class of real-world optimization problems. In the MBO framework, we show that the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) can split the MBO into a binary unconstrained problem (that can be solved with quantum algorithms), and continuous constrained convex subproblems (that can be solved cheaply with classical optimization solvers). The validity of the approach is then showcased by numerical results obtained on several optimization problems via simulations with VQE and QAOA on the quantum circuits implemented in Qiskit, an open-source quantum computing software development framework.

description: Mergers of binary neutron stars and black hole-neutron star binaries are one of the most promising sources for the ground-based gravitational-wave (GW) detectors and also a high-energy astrophysical phenomenon as illustrated by the observations of gravitational waves and electromagnetic (EM) waves in the event of GW170817. Mergers of these neutron-star binaries are also the most promising site for r-process nucleosynthesis. Numerical simulation in full general relativity (numerical relativity) is a unique approach to the theoretical prediction of the merger process, GWs emitted, mass ejection process, and resulting EM emission. We summarize our current understanding for the processes of neutron star mergers and subsequent mass ejection based on the results of the latest numerical-relativity simulations. We emphasize that the predictions of the numerical-relativity simulations agrees broadly with the optical and infrared observations of GW170817.

Radiative Corrections to the Azimuthal Asymmetry in Transversely Polarized Moller Scattering

description: Experiment E158 at SLAC can measure an azimuthal asymmetry in single-spin, transversely polarized Moller scattering, e^{-\uparrow} e^- -> e^- e^-, which arises from a QED rescattering phase. We recompute the leading-order (one-loop) asymmetry, confirming previous results, and calculate the leading logarithmic QED corrections due to initial-state radiation from the beam and target electrons, and due to final-state radiation. The size of these radiative corrections is quite sensitive to experimental details, such as the acceptance in energy and in polar angle of the scattered electron. For E158, the corrections are modest, increasing the parts-per-million asymmetry by roughly 1 percent.

description: Commodity associations are organizations that bring together a wide spectrum of interest groups related to a particular commodity or sector in a particular country, whether for export, for the domestic market, or for both. Such associations can have, as members, individual farmers or their associations, crop buyers, processors, distributors, and exporters, as well as suppliers of support services and, sometimes, government representatives. Drawing on a literature review and case studies of relevant associations in Ghana, Mali, Nepal, the Philippines, South Africa, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe and covering the meat, poultry, horticulture, coconut, and rice sectors, this paper explores the role of such associations in improving supply chain performance. Particular attention is paid to interprofessional associations, a concept first developed in France, which draw their membership from associations representing each activity or “profession” of the chain. Associations can play a particularly important role as a focal point for policy dialogue with government, but they also have many other functions. These include regulation, setting or advising on grades and standards and their implementation, promotion of trademarks or quality signs within the industry, support for research, export and domestic market promotion, provision of information and statistics, education and training, and support to government in trade negotiation. Representing all sectors of an industry, such associations also have a potential dispute-resolution role. In many countries, policy formulation is inadequate because there are no clear channels through which governments can approach the private sector. Inefficiencies also exist within commodity sectors because of the lack of communication between chain actors. The paper concludes that the need to address such weaknesses, combined with the positive role played by many existing associations, argues for further development of the concept in developing countries. However, developmental efforts must consider the need to promote sustainable organizations.
Binegativity and geometry of entangled states in two qubits

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We prove that the binegativity is always positive for any two-qubit state. As a result, as suggested by the previous works, the asymptotic relative entropy of entanglement in two qubits does not exceed the Rains bound, and the PPT-entanglement cost for any two-qubit state is determined to be the logarithmic negativity of the state. Further, the proof reveals some geometrical characteristics of the entangled states, and shows that the partial transposition can give another separable approximation of the entangled state in two qubits.

Middle Power Security Cooperation: Australia-Korea Relations in the Post-Cold War Era
Creators: name: Lee, Peter
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: One of the central assumptions in the international relations literature on middle powers is their tendency to work together. In responding to shared strategic challenges, middle powers can exert greater influence together than they would otherwise possess alone. Scholars thus expected closer security cooperation between the Asia-Pacific's middle powers since the end of the Cold War due to new common threats, alliance burden-sharing pressure, institutional interests, functional linkages, and shared identity. However, these five explanations have failed to predict and adequately explain the variation in security cooperation over the past three decades. This begs the puzzle of why has there been such limited security cooperation among the Asia-Pacific's middle powers despite the literature's widespread expectations and favourable international conditions? To answer this puzzle, this study introduces the 'leadership role congruence' hypothesis. It argues that how individual leaders of middle powers define what role they want to play in security affairs determines when, and with whom, they are likely to pursue security cooperation. To test the hypothesis against existing explanations, the study first reviews middle power security cooperation in a comparative context before undertaking the first in-depth study of the contemporary Australia-South Korea security relationship as a most-likely case study. Australia and South Korea are widely recognised as middle powers and should have deepened their strategic ties based on their common adversaries, mutual alliance relations, regional activism, economic and military linkages, and shared identities. Using newly-declassified archival materials as well as extensive interviews, the study demonstrates how structural incentives for closer cooperation are mediated by leaders in the strategic domain. This explains why middle power security cooperation has been so difficult to sustain over the decades. The study's findings offer important insights for the literature on middle powers, Asian security, and international cooperation.

description: This paper presents an overview of research results examining the systemic influence of company size on the effect of the introduction of innovations in the field of environmental protection on the financial performance of a business. The significant influence of the firm's size in the specified context and the dynamics of its change over time is shown. It is shown that while the average impact of the âgreenâ innovations' introduction on the financial performance of a business is positive, the degree of this impact varies for small, medium and large companies. Recommendations are formulated for firms of different sizes.

description: The influence of nonequilibrium bulk conditions on the properties of the interfaces exhibited by a kinetic Ising--like model system with nonequilibrium steady states is studied. The system is maintained out of equilibrium by perturbing the familiar spin--flip dynamics at temperature T with completely--random flips; one may interpret these as ideally simulating some (dynamic) impurities. We find evidence that, in the present case, the nonequilibrium mechanism adds to the basic thermal one resulting on a renormalization of microscopic parameters such as the probability of interfacial broken bonds. On this assumption, we develop theory for the nonequilibrium "surface tension", which happens to show a non--monotonous behavior with a maximum at some finite T. It ensues, in full agreement with Monte Carlo simulations, that interface fluctuations differ qualitatively from the equilibrium case, e.g., the interface remains rough at zero--T. We discuss on some consequences of these facts for nucleation theory, and make some explicit predictions concerning the nonequilibrium droplet structure.

We apply the Multiconfiguration Hartree Method for bosons to compute the ground state of the system and show the average superfluidity fraction for a wide range of interaction strength and barrier height, highlighting the behavior of density correlation functions. The decrease of superfluidity fraction due to the increase of barrier height is found whereas the condensation fraction depends exclusively on the interaction strength, showing the independence of both phenomena.

description: This practice-led research project investigates structure from the disturbed perspective of ruin and ruination, and is directed toward inventing a sculptural form relevant to the idiosyncratic and prodigious demands of the ruin centred on ideas of fragmentation, isomorphism and entanglement. Within this project I engage both historical and contemporary ruin tropes as a resource to explore ruined fragments and multilayered ruin-forms, altering and re-constructing them in the pursuit of new sculptural forms. The outcome of this investigation is a series of freestanding and quadrated glass sculptures and a comprehensive technical investigation into the emergent fine glass casting techniques necessary for their creation. This project exploits the iconography of ruin, not as a depiction of ruin, but as an experimental interpretation of our contemporary culture in flux.

description: We report first-principles calculations of the inelastic current-voltage (I-V) characteristics of a gold point contact and a molecular junction in the nonresonant regime. Discontinuities in the I-V curves appear in correspondence to the normal modes of the structures. Due to the quasi-one-dimensional nature of these systems, specific modes with large longitudinal component dominate the inelastic I-V curves. In the case of the gold point contact, our results are in good agreement with recent experimental data. For the molecular junction, we find that the inelastic I-V curves are quite sensitive to the structure of the contact between the molecule and the electrodes thus providing a powerful tool to extract the bonding geometry in molecular wires.

description: Background and purpose — Machine learning (ML) techniques are a form of artificial intelligence able to analyze big data. Analyzing the outcome of (digital) questionnaires, ML might recognize different patterns in answers that might relate to different types of pathology. With this study, we investigated the proof-of-principle of ML-based diagnosis in patients with hip complaints using a digital questionnaire and the Kellgren and Lawrence (KL) osteoarthritis score. Patients and methods — 548 patients (> 55 years old) scheduled for consultation of hip complaints were asked to participate in this study and fill in an online questionnaire. Our questionnaire consists of 27 questions related to general history-taking and validated patient-related outcome measures (Oxford Hip Score and a Numeric Rating Scale for pain). 336 fully completed questionnaires were related to their classified diagnosis (either hip osteoarthritis, bursitis or tendinitis, or other pathology). Different AI techniques were used to relate questionnaire outcome and hip diagnoses. Resulting area under the curve (AUC) and classification accuracy (CA) are reported to identify the best scoring AI model. The accuracy of different ML models was compared using questionnaire outcome with and without radiologic KL scores for degree of osteoarthritis. Results — The most accurate ML model for diagnosis of patients with hip complaints was the Random Forest model (AUC 82%, 95% CI 0.78–0.86; CA 69%, CI 0.64–0.74) and most accurate analysis with addition of KL scores was with a Support Vector Machine model (AUC 89%, CI 0.86–0.92; CA 83%, CI 0.79–0.87). Interpretation — Analysis of self-reported online questionnaires related to hip complaints can differentiate between basic hip pathologies. The addition of radiological scores for osteoarthritis further improves these outcomes.

Adaptivity in Online and Statistical Learning
Creators: name: Mhammedi, Zakaria
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: Many modern machine learning algorithms, though successful, are still based on heuristics. In a typical application, such heuristics may manifest in the choice of a specific Neural Network structure, its number of parameters, or the learning rate during training. Relying on these heuristics is not ideal from a computational perspective (often involving multiple runs of the algorithm), and can also lead to over-fitting in some cases. This motivates the following question: for which machine learning tasks/settings do there exist efficient algorithms that automatically adapt to the best parameters? Characterizing the settings where this is the case and designing corresponding (parameter-free) algorithms within the online learning framework constitutes one of this thesis' primary goals. Towards this end, we develop algorithms for constrained and unconstrained online convex optimization that can automatically adapt to various parameters of interest such as the Lipschitz constant, the curvature of the sequence of losses, and the norm of the comparator. We also derive new performance lower-bounds characterizing the limits of adaptivity for algorithms in these settings. Part of systematizing the choice of machine learning methods also involves having ``certificates'' for the performance of algorithms. In the statistical learning setting, this translates to having (tight) generalization bounds. Adaptivity can manifest here through data-dependent bounds that become small whenever the problem is ``easy''. In this thesis, we provide such data-dependent bounds for the expected loss (the standard risk measure) and other risk measures. We also explore how such bounds can be used in the context of risk-monotonicity.

description: The State Council has adopted Agenda 21 for China and biodiversity conservation as one plank of this agenda for China's sustainable development. This paper offers a brief discussion of China's White Paper on Agenda 21 and examines as a case study the problem of sustaining biological diversity in Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture in Yunnan. This area is rated as one of "megadiversity" and one deserving of a high priority for conservation purposes. After discussing the general socio-economic obstacles to biodiversity conservation in Xishuangbanna, it discusses the types of strategies adopted for reducing pressures by local communities on biodiversity and nature conservation. The preferred strategy in China for easing pressures on biodiversity conservation in nature reserves is to try to improve economic opportunities outside of the reserves and raise the income levels of people living in the neighbourhood of the reserves. This approach has been adopted in Xishuangbanna and there are plans to extend it. Community development projects such as agroforestry, joint ventures in tourism and so on are being encouraged. Mechanisms for selecting suitable community development projects e.g. using Rapid Rural Appraisal {RRA), are considered. Without- economic development at the local level, plans for biodiversity conservation are unlikely to succeed in China or for that matter elsewhere in the developing world.

description: We propose a prepare-and-measure scheme for quantum key distribution with 2-bit quantum codes. The protocol is unconditionally secure under whatever type of intercept-and-resend attack. Given the symmetric and independent errors to the transmitted qubits, our scheme can tolerate a bit error rate up to 26% in 4-state protocol and 30% in 6-state protocol, respectively. These values are higher than all currently known threshold values for prepare-and-measure protocols. A specific realization with linear optics is given.

'I planned to survive': The role and experiences of women in the desistance from male-perpetrated intimate partner violence
Creators: name: Boxall, Hayley
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2021

description: Despite 40 years of research, evidence regarding the effectiveness of common responses to male-perpetrated intimate partner violence (IPV) is mixed. To improve the safety of victims/survivors and their children, it is instructive to apply the learnings from different bodies of research, such as desistance, to IPV. However, considering the unique dimensions associated with IPV, the relevance of desistance frameworks to this crime is unclear. In particular, IPV occurs within a dyadic and domestic context, meaning that women who experience IPV are not only in a unique position to observe their partner's behaviours (and how they change over time), but also to implement strategies to initiate and support their partner's desistance. This study involved semi-structured interviews with 40 women who had experienced male-perpetrated IPV within a current or former relationship. Focusing on the period where participants relationships with abusers were still intact, 15 women reported that the violence had stopped or decreased significantly for a period of six months or longer (i.e., desistance of the IPV perpetrated against them). The other 25 women reported that the violence had been ongoing or escalated throughout the relationship (i.e., persistence of the IPV perpetrated against them). The analysis found that respondents were highly agentic actors within their relationships and implemented a range of strategies to both mitigate their day-to-day risk of violence and support their partners' long-term behavioural changes. Even in situations where the violence did not stop entirely, the strategies participants implemented were important for inhibiting escalating patterns of violence and abuse within their relationship. Although their understanding of abusers' thought processes and motivations was limited by contextual awareness, participants' narratives suggested that desistance would not have occurred, but for their actions. However, descriptions of the patterns of violence and abuse provided by participants highlight the limitations of current definitions of desistance in relation to IPV. In particular, the complete cessation of all forms of violence within the relationships was only reported by three women in the sample. While a reduction in physical violence was frequently reported, so was the persistence or escalation of coercive control and emotional abuse. The findings from this study demonstrate a number of ways in which desistance theory can help to understand the processes by which male-perpetrated IPV may cease or reduce significantly. However, they also point to areas where desistance frameworks may be enhanced or adapted to improve their relevance to IPV, as well as other offending behaviours.
Linear and non-linear association analysis of genomic ranges annotations
Creators: name: Buerger, Annika
name: Dugas, Martin
Publisher: name: F1000 Research Limited
Year: 2021

description: Introduction
 With NGS there arise plenty genomic data. Lists of annotated genomic ranges from a biological setting have to be analyzed to answer specific scientific questions. Examining only linear correlations may cause the necessity of various filters and leads to a reduction of statistical power of the analysis. To consider all available data and all possible dependencies a sophisticated analysis should cover non-linear correlations.
 Method
 We developed a method to examine any associations between all possible pairs of annotations. For this we first categorize and summarize the annotations according to they scale (binary, nominal, ordinal, interval and rational). In a second step an adequate statistic model is chosen to find possible dependencies between the annotations. We use here both linear correlation coefficients and non-linear characteristics like mutual information. Visualizations help the user to differentiate between significant dependencies and random effects.
 Result
 For implementation we choose R. In Bioconductor in R annotated genomic ranges can be easily
 handled as GRanges objects and implementations of statistic models can be used to determine
 associations between the annotations. The most promising pairings of annotations can then be chosen to further examine them. Our method is especially useful to investigate data out of new experimental approaches which are validated with combined data from established methods.
 Discussion
 As our approach realizes multiple testing found dependencies need to be further validated. We concentrate on paired comparisons of both linear and non-linear associations. Further work will also include the explorative analysis of dependencies between more than one list of annotated genomic ranges.

description: Rapid growth has occurred in tourism to China since 1978 and although 1989 resulted in a large reduction in the number of external visitors to China, resumed growth since then has established new records for levels of tourism arrivals in China. In addition, a new attitude to the development of domestic tourism emerged in 1992. China has decided to increase the relative size of its tertiary sector by the year 2000 and is to encourage the development of domestic tourism. Expansion of foreign tourism to China was needed because of China's opening up to the outside world and has been encouraged. Nevertheless, some difficulties have emerged in its tourism development. These include (1) inadequate attention to demand (2) unbalanced growth with associated strains on infrastructure.(4) in some cases, overly generous concessions to foreign investors and (5) economic wastes or losses arising from political and bureaucratic control over the development of the industry. Tourism is now being treated as a leading industry and particular care will be needed to avoid economic mistakes. On the whole, the development of the industry has not counteracted uneven regional development in China but has reinforced it. A study of tourism development in Xishuangbanna Prefecture suggests that even at this local level, tourism development tends to be relatively centralised. Opportunities for Australia and Australians from the expansion of the Chinese tourism industry are discussed.
