K-quantum Nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings Model in Two Trapped Ions
A k-quantum nonlinear Jaynes-Cummings model for two trapped ions interacting
with laser beams resonant to k-th red side-band of center-of-mass mode, far
from Lamb-Dicke regime, has been obtained. The exact analytic solution showed
the existence of quantum collapses and revivals of the occupation of two atoms.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figure
Quantum-State Engineering of Multiple Trapped Ions for Center-of-Mass Mode
We propose a scheme to generate a superposition with arbitrary coefficients
on a line in phase space for the center-of-mass vibrational mode of N ions by
means of isolating all other spectator vibrational modes from the
center-of-mass mode. It can be viewed as the generation of previous methods for
preparing motional states of one ion. For large number of ions, we need only
one cyclic operatin to generate such a superposition of many coherent states.Comment: 14 pages, revte
Similarity from multi-dimensional scaling: solving the accuracy and diversity dilemma in information filtering
Recommender systems are designed to assist individual users to navigate through the rapidly growing amount of information. One of the most successful recommendation techniques is the collaborative filtering, which has been extensively investigated and has already found wide applications in e-commerce. One of challenges in this algorithm is how to accurately quantify the similarities of user pairs and item pairs. In this paper, we employ the multidimensional scaling (MDS) method to measure the similarities between nodes in user-item bipartite networks. The MDS method can extract the essential similarity information from the networks by smoothing out noise, which provides a graphical display of the structure of the networks. With the similarity measured from MDS, we find that the item-based collaborative filtering algorithm can outperform the diffusion-based recommendation algorithms. Moreover, we show that this method tends to recommend unpopular items and increase the global diversification of the networks in long term
Does Hawking effect always degrade fidelity of quantum teleportation in Schwarzschild spacetime?
Previous studies have shown that the Hawking effect always destroys quantum
correlations and the fidelity of quantum teleportation in the Schwarzschild
black hole. Here, we investigate the fidelity of quantum teleportation of Dirac
fields between users in Schwarzschild spacetime. We find that, with the
increase of the Hawking temperature, the fidelity of quantum teleportation can
monotonically increase, monotonically decrease, or non-monotonically increase,
depending on the choice of the initial state, which means that the Hawking
effect can create net fidelity of quantum teleportation. This striking result
banishes the extended belief that the Hawking effect of the black hole can only
destroy the fidelity of quantum teleportation. We also find that quantum
steering cannot fully guarantee the fidelity of quantum teleportation in
Schwarzschild spacetime. This new unexpected source may provide a new idea for
the experimental evidence of the Hawking effect.Comment: 21 pages, 3 figures, accepted for publication in JHE
