基于样本熵的听觉神经锁相机理的实验分析

锁相是指系统的响应与周期性刺激的特定相位同步的物理现象. 听觉神经的锁相对揭示人的听觉认知基本的神经机理及改善听觉感知有重要意义. 然而, 现有研究主要集中于心理物理方法和幅度谱分析, 不能有效区分包络响应和时域细节结构响应, 不能直观反映神经锁相. 本文主要利用拔靴法和离散傅里叶变换, 提出了基于样本熵的时域细节结构频率跟随响应(temporal-fine-structure-related frequency following response, FFR_T)的神经锁相值(phase locking value, PLV)计算方法, 用于分析神经物理实验数据. 两个脑电实验结果表明: FFR_T的PLV样本熵显著大于包络相关频率跟随响应(envelope-related frequency following response, FFR_E)的PLV, 且二者正交独立, 新方法能有效地分别反映听觉系统对包络和时间细节结构的锁相机理; 基频处的响应主要来源于FFR_E的锁相; 基频处, 不可分辨谐波成分包络的锁相能力优于对可分辨谐波; 基频缺失时, 畸变产物是不同的听觉神经通路的FFR_E的混合; 谐波处, FFR_E 集中于低频, FFR_T则集中于中、高频; 听觉神经元锁相能力与声源的频率可分辨性相关. FFR_T的PLV方法克服了现有FFR分析的局限性, 可用于深入研究听觉神经机理.     

Dissipation of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state in the single-mode amplitude damping channel

We explore how a two-mode squeezed vacuum state sechθ e^{a+b+ tanh θ} |00> evolves when it undergoes a singlemode amplitude dissipative channel with rate of decay κ. We find that in this process not only the squeezing parameter decreases, tanh θ → e^-κt tanh θ, but also the second-mode vacuum state evolves into a chaotic state exp{b⁺bln[1 - e^-2κt tanh² θ]}. The outcome state is no more a pure state, but an entangled mixed state.     

Parseval Theory of Complex Wavelet Transform for Wavelet Family Including Rotational Parameters

A rotational parameter Rθ has been introduced to complex wavelet transform （CWT）. The rotational CWT （RCWT） corresponds to a matrix element 〈φ｜U2（θ;μ;κ）[F〉 in the context of quantum mechanics, where U2（θ;μ;κ） is a two-mode rotational displacing-squeezing operator in the 〈η｜ representation. Based on this, the Parseval theorem and the inversion formula of RCWT have been proved. The concise proof not only manifestly shows the merit of Dirac＇s representation theory but also leads to a new orthogonal property of complex mother wavelets in parameter space.

Novel Quantum Virtual Private Network Scheme for PON via Quantum Secure Direct Communication

Two quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) protocols with quantum identification (QI) based on passive optical network (PON) architecture are proposed. One QSDC protocol can be implemented between two different optical network units just with simple configurations of PON by optical line terminal when they are in the same virtual private network after optical line terminal performing QI to the optical network units in the given PON architecture. The other QSDC protocol is also implemented between any two legitimated users in the virtual private network but with considerable reduction of workload of the optical line terminal. The security analysis shows that the proposed QSDC schemes with quantum identification are unconditionally secure and allow the legitimate users to exchange their secret information efficiently and to realize a quantum virtual private network in the PON networks ultimately.     

A realizable quantum encryption algorithm for qubits

A realizable quantum encryption algorithm for qubits is presented by employing bit-wise quantum computation. System extension and bit-swapping are introduced into the encryption process, which makes the ciphertext space expanded greatly. The security of the proposed algorithm is analysed in detail and the schematic physical implementation is also provided. It is shown that the algorithm, which can prevent quantum attack strategy as well as classical attack strategy, is effective to protect qubits. Finally, we extend our algorithm to encrypt classical binary bits and quantum entanglements.
