Recent developments in quantum key distribution: Theory and practice
Quantum key distribution is among the foremost applications of quantum mechanics, both in terms of fundamental physics and as a technology on the brink of commercial deployment. Starting from principal schemes and initial proofs of unconditional security for perfect systems, much effort has gone into providing secure schemes which can cope with numerous experimental imperfections unavoidable in...

متن کاملRecent developments and open problems in the theory of permanents
Thus the definition of the permanent is similar to that of the determinant except for the sign associated with each term in the summation. This minor difference in the definition makes the two functions quite unlike each other. Perhaps the permanent cannot compete with its cousin, the determinant, in terms of the depth of theory and the breadth of applications, but it is safe to say that the pe...
متن کامل"market-based Solutions to Environmental Problems"
There is rapidly growing interest in the use of market-based (MB) instruments in environmental policy. The papers in this session discuss three relatively new areas for such policies: groundwater contamination, nonpoint source surface-water pollution and carbon sequestration. The papers point out the potential for MB policies in these areas, but significant challenges remain. This comment highl...

Tuberculosis is an ancient human disease that is still a major cause of death and one of the most challenging public health problems worldwide. After decades of stagnancy, new public-private partnerships to fight the disease and the increasing awareness of a vicious circle between the tuberculosis epidemic and the obstruction of economic development have fuelled recent progress in our understan...
