A Proof of the Security of Quantum Key Distribution
Eli Biham, Michel Boyer, P. Oscar Boykin +2
We prove the security of theoretical quantum key distribution against the most general attacks which can be performed on the channel, by an eavesdropper who has unlimited computati…
Mutually Unbiased Bases and Orthogonal Decompositions of Lie Algebras
P. Oscar Boykin, Meera Sitharam, Pham Huu Tiep +1
We establish a connection between the problem of constructing maximal collections of mutually unbiased bases (MUBs) and an open problem in the theory of Lie algebras. More precisel…
Disaster Management in Scale-Free Networks: Recovery from and Protection Against Intentional Attacks
Behnam A. Rezaei, Nima Sarshar, P. Oscar Boykin +1
Susceptibility of scale free Power Law (PL) networks to attacks has been traditionally studied in the context of what may be termed as {\em instantaneous attacks}, where a randomly…
Let Your CyberAlter Ego Share Information and Manage Spam
Joseph S. Kong, P. Oscar Boykin, Behnam A. Rezaei +2
Almost all of us have multiple cyberspace identities, and these {\em cyber}alter egos are networked together to form a vast cyberspace social network. This network is distinct from…
Reversible Fault-Tolerant Logic
P. Oscar Boykin, Vwani P. Roychowdhury
It is now widely accepted that the CMOS technology implementing irreversible logic will hit a scaling limit beyond 2016, and that the increased power dissipation is a major limitin…
Functionality Encoded In Topology? Discovering Macroscopic Regulatory Modules from Large-Scale Protein-DNA Interaction Networks
Riccardo Boscolo, Behnam A. Rezaei, P. Oscar Boykin +1
The promise of discovering a functional blueprint of a cellular system from large-scale and high-throughput sequence and experimental data is predicated on the belief that the same…
Real Mutually Unbiased Bases
P. Oscar Boykin, Meera Sitharam, Mohamad Tarifi +1
We tabulate bounds on the optimal number of mutually unbiased bases in R^d. For most dimensions d, it can be shown with relatively simple methods that either there are no real orth…
