Such a phenomenon is an interesting way of transfering entanglement. An expressions for the perfect mirroring of a single qubit contained in a spin chain were proposed in the past. We exploit such an expressions for calculating the evolution times in chains of both two and three spins. In the case of a chain of two qubits, we derive conditions under which the associated four Bell states diagonalize the Hamiltonian. It is found that for the two Bell states 丨Ф＋） and 丨Ф-）, perfect mirroring does not occur （i.e. entanglement is not preserved under swapping）. On the other hand, perfect single qubit mirror effect （entanglement preservation） indeed occurs for the other two Bell states 丨ψ＋） and 丨ψ-） which are mapped into 丨Ф＋） and 丨Ф-） respectively. For the case of a chain of three qubits, the effects of a perfect single qubit mirroring on a set of four maximally entangled three qubit states ψl, ψ2, X1, and X2are studied. Due to the fact that quantum mirroring preserves maximal entanglement, the states ψ1 and ψ2 are not altered. However, quantum mirroring changes the states X1 and X2 only if we apply perfect quantum state mirroring in the site a = 1 of the three qubits spin chain. The above constrains the preservation of maximal entanglement under qubit mirroring of such a state. Due to the fact that swapping has already been experimentally tested, a posible, experimental implementations of single qubit mirroring is possible.展开更多

To enhance smartphone capacity, cloud computing and virtualization techniques can be used to shift the workload from smartphone to computational infrastructure. In this paper, we propose a new framework in which a mirror is kept for each smartphone on a computing infrastructure in the telecom network. With mirrors, the workload can be greatly reduced, and smartphone resources can be virtually expanded. The feasibility of deploying this framework in telecom networks is demonstrated in the protocol design, a synchronization study, and a scalability test. Two applications are introduced to show how computational workload on the smartphone and traffic in the telecom network are signiScantly reduced using our techniques.展开更多

Through development of a rigorous quantum complexity operator formalism, we show that mirror pairs must have equivalent complexity spectra and that the SYZ fibration naturally preserves these computational invariants while implementing the required geometric transformations. Our proof proceeds by first establishing a precise mathematical framework connecting quantum complexity with geometric structures, then demonstrating that the special Lagrangian torus fibration preserves computational complexity at both local and global levels, and finally proving that this preservation necessarily implies the geometric correspondences required by the SYZ conjecture. This approach not only resolves the conjecture but reveals deeper insights about the relationship between computation and geometry in string theory. We introduce new complexity-based invariants for studying mirror symmetry and demonstrate how our framework extends naturally to related geometric structures.展开更多

With the emergence of Storage Area Networks （SANs）, storage can be network-based and consolidated, and mass data movements via Fiber Channels （FCs） can be of very high speed. Based on these features, this paper introduces a dual-node storage cluster designed for remote mirroring as a concurrent data replication method to protect data during system failures. This design takes full advantage of a SAN system＇s benefits, and it adopts a synchronous protocol to guarantee a fully up-to-date data copy on the remote site. By developing a Linux kernel module to control the I/O flow and by using the technologies of software Logic Unit Number （LUN） masking, background online resynchronization and a self-management daemon, we have achieved a reliable mirroring system with the characteristics of server-free data replication, fault tolerance, online disaster recovery and high performance. In this study, we implemented the design in a remote mirror subsystem built on a software Fiber Channel Storage Area Network （FC-SAN） system.展开更多

This approach not only resolves the conjecture but reveals deeper insights about the relationship between computation and geometry in string theory. We introduce new complexity-based invariants for studying mirror symmetry and demonstrate how our framework extends naturally to related geometric structures.

文摘Computer-aided diagnosis(CAD)can detect tuberculosis(TB)cases,providing radiologists with more accurate and efficient diagnostic solutions.Various noise information in TB chest X-ray(CXR)images is a major challenge in this classification task.This study aims to propose a model with high performance in TB CXR image detection named multi-scale input mirror network(MIM-Net)based on CXR image symmetry,which consists of a multi-scale input feature extraction network and mirror loss.The multi-scale image input can enhance feature extraction,while the mirror loss can improve the network performance through self-supervision.We used a publicly available TB CXR image classification dataset to evaluate our proposed method via 5-fold cross-validation,with accuracy,sensitivity,specificity,positive predictive value,negative predictive value,and area under curve(AUC)of 99.67%,100%,99.60%,99.80%,100%,and 0.9999,respectively.Compared to other models,MIM-Net performed best in all metrics.Therefore,the proposed MIM-Net can effectively help the network learn more features and can be used to detect TB in CXR images,thus assisting doctors in diagnosing.

文摘Adaptive optics(AO)has significantly advanced high-resolution solar observations by mitigating atmospheric turbulence.However,traditional post-focal AO systems suffer from external configurations that introduce excessive optical surfaces,reduced light throughput,and instrumental polarization.To address these limitations,we propose an embedded solar adaptive optics telescope(ESAOT)that intrinsically incorporates the solar AO(SAO)subsystem within the telescope's optical train,featuring a co-designed correction chain with a single Hartmann-Shack full-wavefront sensor(HS f-WFS)and a deformable secondary mirror(DSM).The HS f-WFS uses temporal-spatial hybrid sampling technique to simultane-ously resolve tip-tilt and high-order aberrations,while the DSM performs real-time compensation through adaptive modal optimization.This unified architecture achieves symmetrical polarization suppression and high system throughput by min-imizing optical surfaces.A 600 mm ESAOT prototype incorporating a 12×12 micro-lens array HS f-WFS and 61-actuator piezoelectric DSM has been developed and successfully conducted on-sky photospheric observations.Validations in-cluding turbulence simulations,optical bench testing,and practical observations at the Lijiang observatory collectively confirm the system's capability to maintain aboutλ/10 wavefront error during active region tracking.This architectural breakthrough of the ESAOT addresses long-standing SAO integration challenges in solar astronomy and provides scala-bility analyses confirming direct applicability to the existing and future large solar observation facilities.

文摘A new method for directly injecting plasma into the central cell of the Keda Mirror with AXisymmetricity(KMAX)device by using a compact toroid(CT)has been developed.This radial injection approach overcomes the limitations of conventional plasma initiation methods,which typically rely on injecting plasma from one or both ends in a magnetic mirror configuration.The radial injection method aims to produce high-density plasma and facilitate studies of mirror-confined plasma.This paper presents its latest results and provides a detailed description of the injection system design.Our findings confirm the theoretical prediction that the injected plasma must achieve sufficient speed to penetrate the magnetic field and reach the chamber's center.Experimental observations show that,at medium voltage,the plasmoid may linger near the chamber edge,marking the first experimental identification of the conditions required for plasma penetration.

文摘With the explosion of information nowadays, applying data storage safety requirements has become a new challenge, especially in high data available cluster environments. With the emergence of Storage Area Networks （SANs）, storage can be network-based and consolidated, and mass data movements via Fiber Channels （FCs） can be of very high speed. Based on these features, this paper introduces a dual-node storage cluster designed for remote mirroring as a concurrent data replication method to protect data during system failures. This design takes full advantage of a SAN system＇s benefits, and it adopts a synchronous protocol to guarantee a fully up-to-date data copy on the remote site. By developing a Linux kernel module to control the I/O flow and by using the technologies of software Logic Unit Number （LUN） masking, background online resynchronization and a self-management daemon, we have achieved a reliable mirroring system with the characteristics of server-free data replication, fault tolerance, online disaster recovery and high performance. In this study, we implemented the design in a remote mirror subsystem built on a software Fiber Channel Storage Area Network （FC-SAN） system.
