On the complete weight distributions of quantum error-correcting codes

In a recent paper, Hu et al. defined the complete weight distributions of quantum codes and proved the Mac Williams identities, and as applications they showed how such weight distributions may be used to obtain the singleton-type and hamming-type bounds for asymmetric quantum codes. In this paper we extend their study much further and obtain several new results concerning the complete weight distributions of quantum codes and applications. In particular, we provide a new proof of the Mac Williams identities of the complete weight distributions of quantum codes. We obtain new information about the weight distributions of quantum MDS codes and the double weight distribution of asymmetric quantum MDS codes. We get new identities involving the complete weight distributions of two different quantum codes. We estimate the complete weight distributions of quantum codes under special conditions and show that quantum BCH codes by the Hermitian construction from primitive, narrow-sense BCH codes satisfy these conditions and hence these estimate applies.

Rapid Determination of Complete Distribution of Pore and Throat in Tight Oil Sandstone of Triassic Yanchang Formation in Ordos Basin, China

This study aimed to investigate the complete distribution of reservoir space in tight oil sandstone combining casting slices, field emission scanning electron microscopy(FE-SEM), the pore-throat theory model, high-resolution image processing, mathematical statistics, and other technical means. Results of reservoir samples from the Xin’anbian area of Ordos Basin showed that the total pore radius curve of the tight oil sandstone reservoir exhibited a multi-peak distribution, and the peaks appeared to be more focused on the ends of the range. This proved that pores with a radius of 1–50,000 nm provided the most significant storage space for tight oil, indicating that special attention should be paid to this range of the pore size distribution. Meanwhile, the complete throat radius curve of the tight oil sandstone reservoir exhibited a multipeak distribution. However, the peak values were distributed throughout the scales. This confirmed that the throat radius in the tight oil sandstone reservoir was not only in the range of hundreds of nanometers but was also widely distributed in the scale approximately equal to the pore size. The new rapid determination method could provide a precise theoretical basis for the comprehensive evaluation, exploration, and development of a tight oil sandstone reservoir.

Rough Class on a Completely Distributive Lattice

This paper generalizes the Pawlak rough set method to a completely distributive lattice. The concept of a rough set has many applications in data mining. The approximation operators on a completely distributive lattice are studied, the rough class on a completely distributive lattice is defined and the expressional theorems of the rough class are proven. These expressional theorems are used to prove that the collection of all rough classes is an atomic completely distributive lattice.

REGULAR RELATIONS AND MONOTONE NORMAL ORDERED SPACES

In this paper the classical theorem of Zareckii about regular relations is generalized and an intrinsic characterization of regularity is obtained. Based on the generalized Zareckii theorem and the intrinsic characterization of regularity, the authors give a characterization of monotone normality of ordered spaces. A new proof of the UrysohnNachbin lemma is presented which is quite different from the classical one.

A Class Of Counterexamples Concerning an Open Problem

If K ∩ AlgL is weak. dense in AlgL, where K is the set of all compactoperators in B(H), is completely distributive? In this note, we prove that there is a reflexivesubspace lattice L on some Hilbert space, which satisfies the following conditions: (a) F(AlgL) isdense in AlgL in the ultrastrong operator topology, where F(AlgL) is the set of all finite rankoperators in AlgL; (b) L isnt a completely distributive lattice. The subspace lattices that satisfythe above conditions form a large class of lattices. As a special case of the result, it easy to seethat the answer to Problem 7 is negative.
