Prime Factorization in the Duality Computer
We give algorithms to factorize large integers in the duality computer. We
provide three duality algorithms for factorization based on a naive
factorization method, the Shor algorithm in quantum computing, and the Fermat's
method in classical computing. All these algorithms are polynomial in the input
size.Comment: 4 page
Tight Kernel Bounds for Problems on Graphs with Small Degeneracy
In this paper we consider kernelization for problems on d-degenerate graphs,
i.e. graphs such that any subgraph contains a vertex of degree at most .
This graph class generalizes many classes of graphs for which effective
kernelization is known to exist, e.g. planar graphs, H-minor free graphs, and
H-topological-minor free graphs. We show that for several natural problems on
d-degenerate graphs the best known kernelization upper bounds are essentially
tight.Comment: Full version of ESA 201
General-Purpose Parallel Simulator for Quantum Computing
With current technologies, it seems to be very difficult to implement quantum
computers with many qubits. It is therefore of importance to simulate quantum
algorithms and circuits on the existing computers. However, for a large-size
problem, the simulation often requires more computational power than is
available from sequential processing. Therefore, the simulation methods using
parallel processing are required.
We have developed a general-purpose simulator for quantum computing on the
parallel computer (Sun, Enterprise4500). It can deal with up-to 30 qubits. We
have performed Shor's factorization and Grover's database search by using the
simulator, and we analyzed robustness of the corresponding quantum circuits in
the presence of decoherence and operational errors. The corresponding results,
statistics and analyses are presented.Comment: 15 pages, 15 figure
Gravitational Correction and Weak Gravity Conjecture
We consider the gravitational correction to the running of gauge coupling.
Weak gravity conjecture implies that the gauge theories break down when the
gravitational correction becomes greater than the contribution from gauge
theories. This observation can be generalized to non-Abelian gauge theories in
diverse dimensions and the cases with large extra dimensions.Comment: 8 pages; minor correction and refs adde
Controlled order rearrangement encryption for quantum key distribution
A novel technique is devised to perform orthogonal state quantum key
distribution. In this scheme, entangled parts of a quantum information carrier
are sent from Alice to Bob through two quantum channels. However before the
transmission, the orders of the quantum information carrier in one channel is
reordered so that Eve can not steal useful information. At the receiver's end,
the order of the quantum information carrier is restored. The order
rearrangement operation in both parties is controlled by a prior shared control
key which is used repeatedly in a quantum key distribution session.Comment: 5 pages and 2 figure
Vanishing Effective Mass of the Neutrinoless Double Beta Decay?
We stress that massive neutrinos may be Majorana particles even if the
effective mass of the neutrinoless double beta decay m_ee vanishes. We show
that current neutrino oscillation data do allow m_ee = 0 to hold, if the
Majorana CP-violating phases lie in two specific regions. Strong constraints on
three neutrino masses can then be obtained. We find that the neutrino mass
spectrum performs a normal hierarchy: m_1 < m_2 < m_3. A possible texture of
the neutrino mass matrix is also illustrated under the m_ee = 0 condition.Comment: RevTex 9 pages (2 PS figures included). More discussions and

A Model of Fermion Masses and Flavor Mixings with Family Symmetry
The family symmetry is proposed to solve flavor problems
about fermion masses and flavor mixings. It's breaking is implemented by some
flavon fields at the high-energy scale. In addition a discrete group is
introduced to generate tiny neutrino masses, which is broken by a real singlet
scalar field at the middle-energy scale. The low-energy effective theory is
elegantly obtained after all of super-heavy fermions are integrated out and
decoupling. All the fermion mass matrices are regularly characterized by four
fundamental matrices and thirteen parameters. The model can perfectly fit and
account for all the current experimental data about the fermion masses and
flavor mixings, in particular, it finely predicts the first generation quark
masses and the values of and in neutrino
physics. All of the results are promising to be tested in the future
experiments.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figure, to make a few of corrections to the old version.

Prediction of in Neutrino Mass Matrix with Two Zeros
We have discussed predictions of and in the framework of
the neutrino mass matrix with two zeros. In the case of the best fit values of
, , and , the prediction of is . The lower
bound of is 0.05, which depends on and
. We have investigated the stability of these predictions
taking account of small corrections to zeros, which may come from radiative
corrections or off-diagonal elements of the charged lepton massmatrix.
The lower bound of comes down considerably due to the small
corrections to zeros.Comment: Figures and discussions are adde
Isotope effect in impure high T_c superconductors
The influence of various kinds of impurities on the isotope shift exponent
\alpha of high temperature superconductors has been studied. In these materials
the dopant impurities, like Sr in La_{2-x}Sr_xCuO_4, play different role and
usually occupy different sites than impurities like Zn, Fe, Ni {\it etc}
intentionally introduced into the system to study its superconducting
properties.
In the paper the in-plane and out-of-plane impurities present in layered
superconductors have been considered. They differently affect the
superconducting transition temperature T_c. The relative change of isotope
shift coefficient, however, is an universal function of T_c/T_{c0} (T_{c0}
reffers to impurity free system) {\it i.e.} for angle independent scattering
rate and density of states function it does not depend whether the change of
T_c is due to in- or out-of-plane impurities. The role of the anisotropic
impurity scattering in changing oxygen isotope coefficient of superconductors
with various symmetries of the order parameter is elucidated. The comparison of
the calculated and experimental dependence of \alpha/\alpha_0, where \alpha_0
is the clean system isotope shift coefficient, on T_c/T_{c0} is presented for a
number of cases studied.
The changes of \alpha calculated within stripe model of superconductivity in
copper oxides resonably well describe the data on
La_{1.8}Sr_{0.2}Cu_{1-x}(Fe,Ni)_xO_4, without any fitting parameters.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figures, Phys. Rev. B67 (2003) accepte
