We consider two classes of constrained finite state-action stochastic games. First, we consider a two player nonzero sum single controller constrained stochastic game with both average and discounted cost criterion. We consider the same…
We obtain several essential self-adjointness conditions for a Schroedinger type operator D*D+V acting in sections of a vector bundle over a manifold M. Here V is a locally square-integrable bundle map. Our conditions are expressed in terms…
In this work, we study perfectly-secure multi-party computation (MPC) against general (non-threshold) adversaries. Known protocols in a synchronous network are secure against $Q^{(3)}$ adversary structures, while in an asynchronous network,…
Quantum chaotic systems exhibit certain universal statistical properties that closely resemble predictions from random matrix theory (RMT). With respect to observables, it has recently been conjectured that, when truncated to a sufficiently…
In this paper, we introduce a new operator, $\mathcal{S}$, which is closely related to the restriction problem for spheres in $\mathbb{F}_q^d$, the $d$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ with $q$ elements. The…
The Shor-Preskill proof of the security of the BB84 quantum key distribution protocol relies on the theoretical existence of good classical error-correcting codes with the ``dual-containing'' property. A practical implementation of BB84…
Mutually unbiased bases that can be cyclically generated by a single unitary operator are of special interest, since they can be readily implemented in practice. We show that, for a system of qubits, finding such a generator can be cast as…
Symmetry plays an important role in the field of quantum mechanics. In this paper, we consider a subclass of symmetric quantum states in the multipartite system $N^{\otimes d}$, namely, the completely symmetric states, which are invariant…
Let $T:X\to X$ be a linear power bounded operator on Banach space. Let $X_0$ is a subspace of vectors tending to zero under iterating of $T$. We prove that if $X_0$ is not equal to $X$ then there exists $\lambda$ in Sp(T) such that, for…
We investigate the role played by quantum operator ordering in the correlations that characterize two-photon polarization Bell measurements. The Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) criterion is investigated in the normal ordering imposed by…
It is known that the witness operator is useful in the detection and quantification of entangled states. This motivated us for the construction of the family of witness operators that can detect many mixed entangled states. This family of…
This paper introduces the Symmetric Extensible Quantum Secret Sharing protocol, which is a novel quantum protocol for secret sharing. At its heart, it is an entanglement based protocol that relies on the use of maximally entangled GHZ…
Unconditional security proofs of the Bennett-Brassard protocol of quantum key distribution have been obtained recently. These proofs cover also practical implementations that utilize weak coherent pulses in the four signal polarizations.…
This paper investigates equilibrium points and stability in two synchronous machine configurations: (i) a single generator with an impedance load and (ii) two interconnected machines with co-located loads. We consider both abc and dq…
In the present paper, we study the norms for symmetric and antisymmetric tensor products of weighted shift operators. By proving that for $n\geq 2$, $$\|S_{\alpha}^{l_1}\odot\cdots \odot S_{\alpha}^{l_k}\odot…
In the present paper, we consider a class of quadratic stochastic operators (q.s.o.) called $ b- $bistochastic q.s.o. We include several properties of $ b- $bistochastic q.s.o. and their dynamical behavior. One of the main findings in this…
We introduce a chain condition (bishop), defined for operators acting on C(K)-spaces, which is intermediate between weak compactness and having weakly compactly generated range. It is motivated by Pe{\l}czy\'nski's characterisation of…
Squash is a widely popular racket sport, practiced by millions of people worldwide, played inside a walled court. When played well, players can last for several minutes before the ball bounces twice on the floor. There is, however, an…
In conventional quantum key distribution protocols, the secure key is normally extracted from the measurement outcomes of the system. Here, a different approach is proposed, where the secure key is extracted from the measurement bases,…
BCH and LCD cyclic codes of length $n=\lambda(q^m+1)$ with $\lambda\mid q-1$ are studied. A complete characterization of $q$-cyclotomic cosets modulo $n$ is given: Theorem \ref{th4} provides a necessary and sufficient condition for any…
