Generation of higher order nonclassical states via interaction of intense electromagnetic field with third order nonlinear medium
Interaction of intense laser beam with an inversion symmetric third order
nonlinear medium is modeled as a quartic anharmonic oscillator. A first order
operator solution of the model Hamiltonian is used to study the possibilities
of generation of higher order nonclassical states. It is found that the higher
order squeezed and higher order antibunched states can be produced by this
interaction. It is also shown that the higher order nonclassical states may
appear separately, i.e. a higher order antibunched state is not essentially
higher order squeezed state and vice versa.Comment: 7 pages, no figur
Large Margin Multiclass Gaussian Classification with Differential Privacy
As increasing amounts of sensitive personal information is aggregated into
data repositories, it has become important to develop mechanisms for processing
the data without revealing information about individual data instances. The
differential privacy model provides a framework for the development and
theoretical analysis of such mechanisms. In this paper, we propose an algorithm
for learning a discriminatively trained multi-class Gaussian classifier that
satisfies differential privacy using a large margin loss function with a
perturbed regularization term. We present a theoretical upper bound on the
excess risk of the classifier introduced by the perturbation.Comment: 14 page
Lotteries in student assignment: An equivalence result
This paper formally examines two competing methods of conducting a lottery in assigning students to schools, motivated by the design of the centralized high school student assignment system in New York City. The main result of the paper is that a single and multiple lottery mechanism are equivalent for the problem of allocating students to schools in which students have strict preferences and the schools are indifferent. In proving this result, a new approach is introduced, that simplifies and unifies all the known equivalence results in the house allocation literature. Along the way, two new mechanisms---Partitioned Random Priority and Partitioned Random Endowment---are introduced for the house allocation problem. These mechanisms generalize widely studied mechanisms for the house allocation problem and may be appropriate for the many-to-one setting such as the school choice problem.Matching, random assignment
Non-destructive Orthonormal State Discrimination
We provide explicit quantum circuits for the non-destructive deterministic
discrimination of Bell states in the Hilbert space , where is
qudit dimension. We discuss a method for generalizing this to non-destructive
measurements on any set of orthogonal states distributed among parties.
From the practical viewpoint, we show that such non-destructive measurements
can help lower quantum communication complexity under certain conditions.Comment: 11 pages, 6 fugure
Cor triatriatum sinister with situs inversus totalis in an infant.
Cor triatriatum sinister is a rare congenital cardiac malformation characterized by a membrane in
the left atrium which separates the left atrium into the proximal and distal chambers.Association of
cor triatriatum is extremely rare with situs inversus totalis. This article reports a rare case of cor
triatriatum sinister with situs inversus totalis in a 5 month old female infantpeer-reviewe
