Probing Electroweak Symmetry Breaking Mechanism at the LHC: A Guideline from Power Counting Analysis
We formulate the equivalence theorem as a theoretical criterion for
sensitively probing the electroweak symmetry breaking mechanism, and develop a
precise power counting method for the chiral Lagrangian formulated electroweak
theories. Armed with these, we perform a systematic analysis on the
sensitivities of the scattering processes
and for testing all possible effective bosonic
operators in the chiral Lagrangian formulated electroweak theories at the CERN
Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The analysis shows that these two kinds of
processes are "complementary" in probing the electroweak symmetry breaking
sector.Comment: Extended version, 11-page-Latex-file and 3 separate PS-Figs. To be

Entanglement-assisted transformation is asymptotically equivalent to multiple-copy transformation
We show that two ways of manipulation of quantum entanglement, namely,
entanglement-assisted local transformation [D. Jonathan and M. B. Plenio, Phys.
Rev. Lett. {\bf 83}, 3566 (1999)] and multiple-copy transformation [S.
Bandyopadhyay, V. Roychowdhury, and U. Sen, Phys. Rev. A {\bf 65}, 052315
(2002)], are equivalent in the sense that they can asymptotically simulate each
other's ability to implement a desired transformation from a given source state
to another given target state with the same optimal success probability. As a
consequence, this yields a feasible method to evaluate the optimal conversion
probability of an entanglement-assisted transformation.Comment: 5 pages, revtex4, references updated, no figures. A slightly shorter
