Device-independent tests of classical and quantum dimensions
We address the problem of testing the dimensionality of classical and quantum
systems in a `black-box' scenario. We develop a general formalism for tackling
this problem. This allows us to derive lower bounds on the classical dimension
necessary to reproduce given measurement data. Furthermore, we generalise the
concept of quantum dimension witnesses to arbitrary quantum systems, allowing
one to place a lower bound on the Hilbert space dimension necessary to
reproduce certain data. Illustrating these ideas, we provide simple examples of
classical and quantum dimension witnesses.Comment: To appear in PR

Legal Education and American Law Institute
During the last three years there have been two developments in the legal profession that have reached the stage of achievement and that promise to have far-reaching consequence. One is the effort to raise the standards of legal education, and the other to improve the law and bring it into harmony with modern life through its restatement
Measuring the Efficacy of Leaders to Assess Information and Make Decisions in a Crisis: The C-LEAD Scale
Based on literature and expert interviews, we developed the Crisis Leader Efficacy in Assessing and Deciding scale (C-LEAD) to capture the efficacy of leaders to assess information and make decisions in a public health and safety crisis. In Studies 1 and 2, we find that C-LEAD predicts decision-making difficulty and confidence in a crisis better than a measure of general leadership efficacy. In Study 3, C-LEAD predicts greater motivation to lead in a crisis, more crisis leader role-taking, and more accurate performance while in a crisis leader role. These findings support the scale's construct validity and broaden our theoretical understanding of the nature of crisis leader efficacy.
Single-copy entanglement in a gapped quantum spin chain
The single-copy entanglement of a given many-body system is defined [J.
Eisert and M. Cramer, Phys. Rev. A. 72, 042112 (2005)] as the maximal
entanglement deterministically distillable from a bipartition of a single
specimen of that system. For critical (gapless) spin chains, it was recently
shown that this is exactly half the von Neumann entropy [R. Orus, J. I.
Latorre, J. Eisert, and M. Cramer, Phys. Rev. A 73, 060303(R) (2006)], itself
defined as the entanglement distillable in the asymptotic limit: i.e. given an
infinite number of copies of the system. It is an open question as to what the
equivalent behaviour for gapped systems is. In this paper, I show that for the
paradigmatic spin-S Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki chain (the archetypal gapped
chain), the single-copy entanglement is equal to the von Neumann entropy: i.e.
all the entanglement present may be distilled from a single specimen.Comment: Typos corrected; accepted for publication in Phys. Rev. Lett.;
