Genetic diversity and selective breeding of red common carps in China
China has a very rich genetic diversity in common carp (Cyprinus carpio) and the red common carp plays an important role in Chinese aquaculture and genetic studies. Selective breeding, particularly crossbreeding has been applied successfully to red common carps in China, and the products of these efforts have been in commercial use since the 1970s. However, knowledge of the quantitative and molecular genetics of these carps is limited. Studies were therefore undertaken to: (1) understand the genetic diversity and genetic relationship of red common carps in China; (2) understand the inheritance of color phenotype of Oujiang color carp; (3) select stable Oujiang color carp with fast growth rate and ornamental Oujiang color carp comparable with the Koi common carp from Japan; (4) study the culture performance and culture systems suitable for the Oujiang color carp in cages and paddies; (5) extend better quality fish and appropriate culture systems for small scale fish farmers in poor areas
Which finitely generated Abelian groups admit isomorphic Cayley graphs?
We show that Cayley graphs of finitely generated Abelian groups are rather
rigid. As a consequence we obtain that two finitely generated Abelian groups
admit isomorphic Cayley graphs if and only if they have the same rank and their
torsion parts have the same cardinality. The proof uses only elementary
arguments and is formulated in a geometric language.Comment: 16 pages; v2: added reference, reformulated quasi-convexity, v3:

A Necessary And Sufficient Condition of Distillability with unite fidelity from Finite Copies of a Mixed State: The Most Efficient Purification Protocol
It is well known that any entangled mixed state in systems can
be purified via infinite copies of the mixed state. But can one distill a pure
maximally entangled state from finite copies of a mixed state in any bipartite
system by local operation and classical communication? This is more meaningful
in practical application. We give a necessary and sufficient condition of this
distillability. This condition can be expressed as: there exists
distillable-subspaces. According to this condition, one can judge whether a
mixed state is distillable or not easily. We also analyze some properties of
distillable-subspaces, and discuss the most efficient purification protocols.
Finally, we discuss the distillable enanglement of two-quibt system for the
case of finite copies.Comment: a revised versio

Efficient quantum key distribution scheme with nonmaximally entangled states
We propose an efficient quantum key distribution scheme based on
entanglement. The sender chooses pairs of photons in one of the two equivalent
nonmaximally entangled states randomly, and sends a sequence of photons from
each pair to the receiver. They choose from the various bases independently but
with substantially different probabilities, thus reducing the fraction of
discarded data, and a significant gain in efficiency is achieved. We then show
that such a refined data analysis guarantees the security of our scheme against
a biased eavesdropping strategy.Comment: 5 Pages, No Figur
Local transformation of mixed states of two qubits to Bell diagonal states
The optimal entanglement manipulation for a single copy of mixed states of
two qubits is to transform it to a Bell diagonal state. In this paper we derive
an explicit form of the local operation that can realize such a transformation.
The result obtained is universal for arbitrary entangled two-qubit states and
it discloses that the corresponding local filter is not unique for density
matrices with rank and can be exclusively determined for that with
and 4. As illustrations, a four-parameters family of mixed states are explored,
the local filter as well as the transformation probability are given
explicitly, which verify the validity of the general result.Comment: 5 pages, to be published in Phys. Rev.
A novel quantum key distribution scheme with orthogonal product states
The general conditions for the orthogonal product states of the multi-state
systems to be used in quantum key distribution (QKD) are proposed, and a novel
QKD scheme with orthogonal product states in the 3x3 Hilbert space is
presented. We show that this protocol has many distinct features such as great
capacity, high efficiency. The generalization to nxn systems is also discussed
and a fancy limitation for the eavesdropper's success probability is reached.Comment: 4 Pages, 3 Figure
Entanglement, quantum phase transition and scaling in XXZ chain
Motivated by recent development in quantum entanglement, we study relations
among concurrence , SU(2) algebra, quantum phase transition and
correlation length at the zero temperature for the XXZ chain. We find that at
the SU(2) point, the ground state possess the maximum concurrence. When the
anisotropic parameter is deformed, however, its value decreases. Its
dependence on scales as in the XY metallic
phase and near the critical point (i.e. ) of the Ising-like
insulating phase. We also study the dependence of on the correlation length
, and show that it satisfies near the critical point. For
different size of the system, we show that there exists a universal scaling
function of with respect to the correlation length .Comment: 4 pages, 3 figures. to appear in Phys. Rev.
Optimal Teleportation Based on Bell Measurement
We study optimal teleportation based on the Bell measurements. An explicit
expression for the quantum channel associated with the optimal teleportation
with an arbitrary mixed state resource is presented. The optimal transmission
fidelity of the corresponding quantum channel is calculated and shown to be
related to the fully entangled fraction of the quantum resource, rather than
the singlet fraction as in the standard teleportation protocol.Comment: 7 pages, latex, no figure
