Secure Quantum Secret Sharing Based on Reusable GHZ States as Secure Carriers
We show a potential eavesdropper can eavesdrop whole secret information when
the legitimate users use secure carrier to encode and decode classical
information repeatedly in the protocol [proposed in Bagherinezhad S and
Karimipour V 2003 Phys. Rev. A \textbf{67} 044302]. Then we present a revised
quantum secret sharing protocol by using Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state as
secure carrier. Our protocol can resist Eve's attack
Orthogonal learning particle swarm optimization
Particle swarm optimization (PSO) relies on its
learning strategy to guide its search direction. Traditionally,
each particle utilizes its historical best experience and its neighborhood’s
best experience through linear summation. Such a
learning strategy is easy to use, but is inefficient when searching
in complex problem spaces. Hence, designing learning strategies
that can utilize previous search information (experience) more
efficiently has become one of the most salient and active PSO
research topics. In this paper, we proposes an orthogonal learning
(OL) strategy for PSO to discover more useful information that
lies in the above two experiences via orthogonal experimental
design. We name this PSO as orthogonal learning particle swarm
optimization (OLPSO). The OL strategy can guide particles to
fly in better directions by constructing a much promising and
efficient exemplar. The OL strategy can be applied to PSO with
any topological structure. In this paper, it is applied to both global
and local versions of PSO, yielding the OLPSO-G and OLPSOL
algorithms, respectively. This new learning strategy and the
new algorithms are tested on a set of 16 benchmark functions, and
are compared with other PSO algorithms and some state of the
art evolutionary algorithms. The experimental results illustrate
the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed learning strategy
and algorithms. The comparisons show that OLPSO significantly
improves the performance of PSO, offering faster global convergence,
higher solution quality, and stronger robustness
Study of the ionic Peierls-Hubbard model using density matrix renormalization group methods
Density matrix renormalization group methods are used to investigate the
quantum phase diagram of a one-dimensional half-filled ionic Hubbard model with
bond-charge attraction, which can be mapped from the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger-type
electron-phonon coupling at the antiadiabatic limit. A bond order wave
(dimerized) phase which separates the band insulator from the Mott insulator
always exists as long as electron-phonon coupling is present. This is
qualitatively different from that at the adiabatic limit. Our results indicate
that electron-electron interaction, ionic potential and quantum phonon
fluctuations combine in the formation of the bond-order wave phase
The evolution-dominated hydrodynamic model and the pseudorapidity distributions in high energy physics
By taking into account the effects of leading particles, we discuss the
pseudorapidity distributions of the charged particles produced in high energy
heavy ion collisions in the context of evolution-dominated hydrodynamic model.
The leading particles are supposed to have a Gaussian rapidity distribution
normalized to the number of participants. A comparison is made between the
theoretical results and the experimental measurements performed by BRAHMS and
PHOBOS Collaboration at BNL-RHIC in Au-Au and Cu-Cu collisions at sqrt(s_NN)
=200 GeV and by ALICE Collaboration at CERN-LHC in Pb-Pb collisions at
sqrt(s_NN) =2.76 TeV.Comment: 17 pages,4 figures, 2 table
