Efficient scheme for the preparation of symmetric Dicke states via cross-Kerr nonlinearity

A scheme is proposed for generating maximally entangled Dicke states among four modes. The scheme only uses Kerr medium and homodyne measurements on coherent light fields, which can be efficiently made in quantum optical laboratories. The scheme can be generalized to produce maximally entangled 2k-qubit states.     

Sampled-data nonlinear observer design for chaos synchronization: A Lyapunov-based approach

This paper considers sampled-data based chaos synchronization using observers in the presence of measurement noise for a large class of chaotic systems. We study discretized model of chaotic systems which are perturbed by white noise and employ Lyapunov-like theorems to come up with a simple yet effective observer design. For the choice of observer gain, a suboptimal criterion is obtained in terms of LMI. We present semiglobal as well as global results. The proposed scheme can also be extended for discrete-time chaotic systems. Numerical simulations have been carried out to verify the effectiveness of theoretical results.     

Threshold analysis of the susceptible-infected-susceptible model on overlay networks

In this paper, we study epidemic spreading on overlay networks in which n multiple sets of links interconnect among the same nodes. By using the microscopic Markov-chain approximation (MMA) approach, we establish the conditions of epidemic outbreak for two kinds of spreading mechanisms in such an overlay network: the concatenation case and the switching case. When a uniform infection rate is set in all the subnetworks, we find the epidemic threshold for the switching case is just n times as large as that of concatenation case. We also find that the overlay network with a uniform infection rate can be considered as an equivalent (in the sense of epidemic dynamics and epidemic threshold) weighted network. To be specific, the concatenation case corresponds to the integer weighted network, while the switching case corresponds to the fractional weighted network. Interestingly, the time-varying unweighted network can be mapped into the static weighted network. Our analytic results exhibit good agreement with numerical simulations.

General admissibility for linear estimators in a general multivariate linear model under balanced loss function

A generalization of Zellner’s balanced loss function is proposed. General admissibility in a general multivariate linear model is investigated under the generalized balanced loss function. And the sufficient and necessary conditions for linear estimators to be generally admissible in classes of homogeneous and nonhomogeneous linear estimators are given, respectively.
