In this paper we obtain new bounds for the minimum output entropies of random quantum channels. These bounds rely on random matrix techniques arising from free probability theory. We then revisit the counterexamples developed by Hayden and Winter to get violations of the additivity equalities for minimum output Rényi entropies. We show that random channels obtained by randomly coupling the inpu...

background identification of novel pathogenic bacteria always has a crucial role in clinical microbiology to defeat uncontrolled diseases. objectives sample preparation platform has been developed for rapid and simple detection of infectious organisms from the point of care diagnostics and molecular manipulation by using three novel genomic dna isolation protocols. materials and methods most of...

Optical Burst Switching (OBS) aims to provide higher utilization and greater flexibility at a lower cost and reduced complexity than current optical circuit switched networks. We introduce a new routing protocol for Optical Burst Switching, Shortest Path Prioritized Random Deflection Routing (SP-PRDR), that aims to lower burst loss probabilities while only using limited state information from t...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether self-reported sickness presence (SP) and self-reported sickness absence (SA) are specific risk factors for future health problems or reduced work ability in the active workforce. MATERIALS AND METHODS The study population consisted of a cohort based on a random sample (n = 2181) with data for 2004, 2005, and 2006. The subjects were employees aged from 25 to 50 y...

The 101 species of Mecyclothorax Sharp known to inhabit Tahiti Island, French Polynesia are taxonomically revised, including 28 species that are newly described: Mecyclothorax claridgeiae sp. n., Mecyclothorax jeanyvesi sp. n., Mecyclothorax poria sp. n., Mecyclothorax aano sp. n., Mecyclothorax papau sp. n., Mecyclothorax manina sp. n., Mecyclothorax everardi sp. n., Mecyclothorax ramagei sp. ...

to study the population structure of decapods in the intertidal zone of bushehr rocky shores, some random sample collection from four rocky and rubble shores of bushehr were done using a 50×50 quadrates sampling unit, in four successive seasons from autumn 2009 to summer 2010. totally 8 speciesbelonging to 5 family of decapods were identified and counted. in the whole course of sample collectio...

This study was designed to determine the expression of serum and sputum surfactant protein D (SP-D) in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and its association with treatment response. Sixty-five treatment-naive patients with COPD and 26 normal control subjects were recruited in the study. The concentrations of serum and sputum SP-D were measured, and the associations of SP-D with pulmo...
