چکیده
We study the advantages to be gained in quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols by combining the techniques of local randomization, or noisy preprocessing, and structured (nonrandom) block codes. Extending the results of [Smith, Renes, and Smolin, quant-ph/0607018] pertaining to BB84, we improve the best-known lower bound on the error rate for the 6-state protocol from 14.11% for local randomization alone to at least 14.59%. Additionally, we also study the effects of iterating the combined preprocessing scheme and find further improvements to the BB84 protocol already at small block lengths.

In this paper, we study the one-level Friedrichs model with using the quantum time super-operator that predicts the excited state decay inside the continuum. Its survival probability in long time limit is an algebraically decreasing function and an exponentially decreasing multiplied by the oscillating functions.

We examine the phenomenon of entanglement sudden death (ESD) for (2 × 3)dimensional systems. As for 2× 2 systems, the negativity vanishes in finite time for some entangled pure as well as mixed states. While locally equivalent pure states do so asymptotically. Interference between the decay of the two upper levels to the lowest one in the qutrit adds further richness to ESD in this systems.

The decays of Υ(1s) → γ(η, η) are studied by an approach which has successfully predicted the ratio Γ(J/ψ→γη ) Γ(J/ψ→γη) . Strong dependence on quark mass has been found in the decays (J/ψ,Υ(1s)) → γ(η, η). Very small decay rates of Υ(1s) → γ(η, η) are
