Quantum secret sharing protocol with four state Grover algorithm and its proof-of-principle experimental demonstration

In this article, we propose a three-party quantum secret sharing protocol with four-state Grover algorithm. The protocol has several advantages. It uses only four initial states which simplifies its experimental implementation. It has a higher encoding capacity, each two-qubit state provides two bits of information. We have experimentally demonstrated the protocol in a nuclear magnetic resonance quantum information processor successfully.     

The Marple algorithm for the autoregressive spectral estimates of the SMMW fourier transform spectroscopy data

The Marple algorthm for the autoregressive spectral estimates has been applied to the SMMW Fourier transform spectrum analysis. The experimental results have shown that this method yields AR spectra with three times higher resolution than the FFT method does. The improvements obtained from the Marple algorithm over the maximum entropy algorithm include higher resolution, less bias in the spectral peak frequency estimation and absence of observed spectral line splitting. The effects of the structure of the spectral lines and the noise on the resolution are discussed.Projects supported by National Natural Science Foundation of China

The effect of increasing the excitation level of the sodium atom on the structure of the NaArn polyatomic exciplexes

In this work, the geometrical structures, the formation energies, and electronic states of the Na(ms)Ar_n polyatomic exciplexes with m = 3-6 and n = 2-5 are studied by using a quantum-classical method. The interaction potential between an electronically excited sodium atom and argon atoms are calculated by using a one-electron model involving electron-Ar and electron-Na⁺ pseudopotentials, in which the Hamiltonian is diagonalized at every optimization step in the Basin Hopping algorithm. The relationship between the position of the electronically excited levels and the cluster geometry is investigated as a function of the excitation level and of the spatial extension of the excited electron orbital. We show that the equilibrium structures of the ground state Na(3s)Ar_n and those of the electronically excited states Na(4s)Ar_n, Na(5s)Ar_n, and Na(6s)Ar_n are significantly different. As a result of the detailed examination of the relationships between the geometrical structure and density distribution of the Na valence electron of the Na^∗Ar_n with n = 2-5 polyatomic exciplexes, we can see that for the Na(4s)Ar_n polyatomic exciplexes, the two extreme geometries, neutral Na(3s)Ar_n and ionic Na⁺Ar_n compete. It appears that none of them is the actual one. For Na(5s)Ar_n and Na(6s)Ar_n the valence electron is very weakly bound to the ionic core and described by a more diffused orbital so that the geometry and the formation energies of this excited state called Rydberg states converge towards those of the ionic cores.

Five-step phase-shifting algorithms with unknown values of phase shift

The presented work offers new algorithms for phase evaluation in interferometric measurements. Several phase-shifting algorithms with an arbitrary but constant phase-shift between captured intensity frames are proposed. These phase calculation algorithms need to measure five frames of the intensity of the interference field. The algorithms are similarly derived as so called Carré algorithm. The phase evaluation process then does not depend on the linear phase shift errors. Furthermore, the detailed analysis of the algorithms with respect to most important factors, which affect interferometric measurements, is carried out. It is also studied the dependency of the evaluation algorithms on the phase shift values, and the proposed phase calculation algorithms are compared with respect to the resulting phase errors. The influence of most important factors in the measurement and evaluation process was simulated as systematic and random errors using a proposed mathematical model.

New interpolation technique for the CIP method on curvilinear coordinates

We propose a new interpolation technique for the CIP method applied to curvilinear coordinates. The CIP method can hardly maintain third-order accuracy on curvilinear coordinates. The reason for the degeneracy in accuracies has not been discussed in detail. This paper reveals the problems of the CIP method on curvilinear coordinates and presents an improved CIP method to solve the advection equation accurately. The features of the presented method are: (1) the metric computation on the upwind stencil is defined in the same manner as in the advection phase of the CIP method; and (2) gradient values in the physical domain in the computation on the curvilinear coordinates are used. Various test problems show that the improved CIP method has approximate third-order accuracy.     

Discrete space location-allocation solutions from genetic algorithms

Genetic algorithms are adaptive sampling strategies based on information processing models from population genetics. Because they are able to sample a population broadly, they have the potential to out-perform existing heuristics for certain difficult classes of location problems. This paper describes reproductive plans in the context of adaptive optimization methods, and details the three genetic operators which are the core of the reproductive design. An algorithm is presented to illustrate applications to discrete-space location problems, particularly thep-median. The algorithm is unlikely to compete in terms of efficiency with existingp-median heuristics. However, it is highly general and can be fine-tuned to maximize computational efficiency for any specific problem class.     

Application of the sequential gradient-restoration algorithm to thermal convective instability problems

The problem of the thermal stability of a horizontal incompressible fluid layer with linear and nonlinear temperature distributions is solved by using the sequential gradient-restoration algorithm developed for optimal control problems. The hydrodynamic boundary conditions for the layer include a rigid or free upper surface and a rigid lower surface. The resulting disturbing equations are solved as a Bolza problem in the calculus of variations. The results of the study are compared with the existing works in the literature.The authors acknowledge valuable discussions with Dr. A. Miele.
