Quantum secret sharing between m-party and n-party with six states
We propose a quantum secret sharing scheme between -party and -party
using three conjugate bases, i.e. six states. A sequence of single photons,
each of which is prepared in one of the six states, is used directly to encode
classical information in the quantum secret sharing process. In this scheme,
each of all members in group 1 choose randomly their own secret key
individually and independently, and then directly encode their respective
secret information on the states of single photons via unitary operations, then
the last one (the th member of group 1) sends of the resulting qubits
to each of group 2. By measuring their respective qubits, all members in group
2 share the secret information shared by all members in group 1. The secret
message shared by group 1 and group 2 in such a way that neither subset of each
group nor the union of a subset of group 1 and a subset of group 2 can extract
the secret message, but each whole group (all the members of each group) can.
The scheme is asymptotically 100% in efficiency. It makes the Trojan horse
attack with a multi-photon signal, the fake-signal attack with EPR pairs, the
attack with single photons, and the attack with invisible photons to be
nullification. We show that it is secure and has an advantage over the one
based on two conjugate bases. We also give the upper bounds of the average
success probabilities for dishonest agent eavesdropping encryption using the
fake-signal attack with any two-particle entangled states. This protocol is
feasible with present-day technique.Comment: 7 page
Efficient quantum cryptography network without entanglement and quantum memory
An efficient quantum cryptography network protocol is proposed with
d-dimension polarized photons, without resorting to entanglement and quantum
memory. A server on the network, say Alice, provides the service for preparing
and measuring single photons whose initial state are |0>. The users code the
information on the single photons with some unitary operations. For preventing
the untrustworthy server Alice from eavesdropping the quantum lines, a
nonorthogonal-coding technique (decoy-photon technique) is used in the process
that the quantum signal is transmitted between the users. This protocol does
not require the servers and the users to store the quantum state and almost all
of the single photons can be used for carrying the information, which makes it
more convenient for application than others with present technology. We also
discuss the case with a faint laser pulse.Comment: 4 pages, 1 figures. It also presented a way for preparing decoy
photons without a sinigle-photon sourc
Efficient symmetric multiparty quantum state sharing of an arbitrary m-qubit state
We present a scheme for symmetric multiparty quantum state sharing of an
arbitrary -qubit state with Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states following
some ideas from the controlled teleportation [Phys. Rev. A \textbf{72}, 02338
(2005)]. The sender Alice performs Bell-state measurements on her
particles and the controllers need only to take some single-photon product
measurements on their photons independently, not Bell-state measurements, which
makes this scheme more convenient than the latter. Also it does not require the
parties to perform a controlled-NOT gate on the photons for reconstructing the
unknown -qubit state and it is an optimal one as its efficiency for qubits
approaches the maximal value.Comment: 6 pages, no figures; It simplifies the process for sharing an
arbitrary m-qubit state in Phys. Rev. A 72, 022338 (2005) (quant-ph/0501129
Multiwavelength Observations of one Galaxy in Marano Field
We report the multiwavelength observations of one intermediate redshift
(z=0.3884) galaxy in the Marano Field. These data include ISOCAM middle
infrared, VLT/FORS2 spectroscopic and photometric data, associated with the
ATCA 1.4 GHz radio and ROSAT PSPC X-ray observations from literature. The
Spectral Energy Distribution obtained by VLT spectroscopy exhibits its
early-type galaxy property, while, in the same time, it has obvious [OIII]5007
emission line. The diagnostic diagram from the optical emission line ratios
shows its Seyfert galaxy property. Its infrared-radio relation follows the
correlation of sources detected at 15 \mu and radio. It has a high X-ray
luminosity of 1.26*10^{43} ergs/s, which is much higher than the general
elliptical galaxies s with the similar B band luminosity, and is about 2 orders
of magnitude higher than the derived value from the star forming tracer, the
FIR luminosity. This means that the X-ray sources of this galaxy are not
stellar components, but the AGN is the dominant component.Comment: 6 pages, 1 PS figure and 4 tables. Publication in ChJAA, Suppl., the

Magnetic structure of free cobalt clusters studied with Stern-Gerlach deflection experiments
We have studied the magnetic properties of free cobalt clusters in two
semi-independent Stern-Gerlach deflection experiments at temperatures between
60 and 307 K. We find that clusters consisting of 13 to 200 cobalt atoms
exhibit behavior that is entirely consistent with superparamagnetism, though
complicated by finite-system fluctuations in cluster temperature. By fitting
the data to the Langevin function, we report magnetic moments per atom for each
cobalt cluster size and compare the results of our two measurements and all
those performed previously. In addition to a gradual decrease in moment per
atom with increasing size, there are oscillations that appear to be caused by
geometrical shell structure. We discuss our observations in light of the two
competing models for Langevin-like magnetization behavior in free clusters,
superparamagnetism and adiabatic magnetization, and conclude that the evidence
strongly supports the superparamagnetic model
A Case for Redundant Arrays of Hybrid Disks (RAHD)
Hybrid Hard Disk Drive was originally concepted by Samsung, which incorporates a Flash memory in a magnetic disk. The combined ultra-high-density benefits of magnetic storage and the low-power and fast read access of NAND technology inspires us to construct Redundant Arrays of Hybrid Disks (RAHD) to offer a possible alternative to today’s Redundant Arrays of Independent Disks (RAIDs) and/or Massive Arrays of Idle Disks (MAIDs). We first design an internal management system (including Energy-Efficient Control) for hybrid disks. Three traces collected from real systems as well as a synthetic trace are then used to evaluate the RAHD arrays. The trace-driven experimental results show: in the high speed mode, a RAHD outplays the purely-magnetic-disk-based RAIDs by a factor of 2.4–4; in the energy-efficient mode, a RAHD4/5 can save up to 89% of energy at little performance degradationPeer reviewe
Symmetries and Lie algebra of the differential-difference Kadomstev-Petviashvili hierarchy
By introducing suitable non-isospectral flows we construct two sets of
symmetries for the isospectral differential-difference Kadomstev-Petviashvili
hierarchy. The symmetries form an infinite dimensional Lie algebra.Comment: 9 page
