Facial structures for various notions of positivity and applications to the theory of entanglement
In this expository note, we explain facial structures for the convex cones
consisting of positive linear maps, completely positive linear maps,
decomposable positive linear maps between matrix algebras, respectively. These
will be applied to study the notions of entangled edge states with positive
partial transposes and optimality of entanglement witnesses.Comment: An expository note. Section 7 and Section 8 have been enlarge
The Normal State Resistivity of Grain Boundaries in YBa2Cu3O7-delta
Using an optimized bridge geometry we have been able to make accurate
measurements of the properties of YBa2Cu3O7-delta grain boundaries above Tc.
The results show a strong dependence of the change of resistance with
temperature on grain boundary angle. Analysis of our results in the context of
band-bending allows us to estimate the height of the potential barrier present
at the grain boundary interface.Comment: 11 pages, 3 figure
Synchronization of Chaotic Oscillators due to Common Delay Time Modulation
We have found a synchronization behavior between two identical chaotic
systems^M when their delay times are modulated by a common irregular signal. ^M
This phenomenon is demonstrated both in two identical chaotic maps whose
delay times are driven by a common^M chaotic or random signal and in two
identical chaotic oscillators whose delay times are driven by^M a signal of
another chaotic oscillator. We analyze the phenomenon by using^M the Lyapunov
exponents and discuss it in relation with generalized synchronization.^MComment: 5 pages, 4 figures (to be published in PRE
Characterization of a novel reassortant H5N6 highly pathogenic avian influenza virus clade 2.3.4.4 in Korea, 2017
A characterization of positive linear maps and criteria of entanglement for quantum states
Let and be (finite or infinite dimensional) complex Hilbert spaces. A
characterization of positive completely bounded normal linear maps from
into is given, which particularly gives a
characterization of positive elementary operators including all positive linear
maps between matrix algebras. This characterization is then applied give a
representation of quantum channels (operations) between infinite-dimensional
systems. A necessary and sufficient criterion of separability is give which
shows that a state on is separable if and only if
for all positive finite rank elementary operators
. Examples of NCP and indecomposable positive linear maps are given and
are used to recognize some entangled states that cannot be recognized by the
PPT criterion and the realignment criterion.Comment: 20 page
Separability problem for multipartite states of rank at most four
One of the most important problems in quantum information is the separability
problem, which asks whether a given quantum state is separable. We investigate
multipartite states of rank at most four which are PPT (i.e., all their partial
transposes are positive semidefinite). We show that any PPT state of rank two
or three is separable and has length at most four. For separable states of rank
four, we show that they have length at most six. It is six only for some
qubit-qutrit or multiqubit states. It turns out that any PPT entangled state of
rank four is necessarily supported on a 3x3 or a 2x2x2 subsystem. We obtain a
very simple criterion for the separability problem of the PPT states of rank at
most four: such a state is entangled if and only if its range contains no
product vectors. This criterion can be easily applied since a four-dimensional
subspace in the 3x3 or 2x2x2 system contains a product vector if and only if
its Pluecker coordinates satisfy a homogeneous polynomial equation (the Chow
form of the corresponding Segre variety). We have computed an explicit
determinantal expression for the Chow form in the former case, while such
expression was already known in the latter case.Comment: 19 page
The Dynamical Behaviors in (2+1)-Dimensional Gross-Neveu Model with a Thirring Interaction
We analyze (2+1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu model with a Thirring interaction,
where a vector-vector type four-fermi interaction is on equal terms with a
scalar-scalar type one. The Dyson-Schwinger equation for fermion self-energy
function is constructed up to next-to-leading order in 1/N expansion. We
determine the critical surface which is the boundary between a broken phase and
an unbroken one in () space. It is observed that the
critical behavior is mainly controlled by Gross-Neveu coupling and
the region of the broken phase is separated into two parts by the line
. The mass function is strongly
dependent upon the flavor number N for , while weakly for
, the critical flavor number
increases as Thirring coupling decreases. By driving the CJT
effective potential, we show that the broken phase is energetically preferred
to the symmetric one. We discuss the gauge dependence of the mass function and
the ultra-violet property of the composite operators.Comment: 19 pages, LaTex, 6 ps figure files(uuencoded in seperate file
Characteristics of a Delayed System with Time-dependent Delay Time
The characteristics of a time-delayed system with time-dependent delay time
is investigated. We demonstrate the nonlinearity characteristics of the
time-delayed system are significantly changed depending on the properties of
time-dependent delay time and especially that the reconstructed phase
trajectory of the system is not collapsed into simple manifold, differently
from the delayed system with fixed delay time. We discuss the possibility of a
phase space reconstruction and its applications.Comment: 4 pages, 6 figures (to be published in Phys. Rev. E
Construction of entangled edge states with positive partial transposes
We construct a class of entangled edge states with positive
partial transposes using indecomposable positive linear maps. This class
contains several new types of entangled edge states with respect to the range
dimensions of themselves and their partial transposes.Comment: 14 page
