Adaptive versus non-adaptive strategies for quantum channel discrimination

, 2009
We provide a simple example that illustrates the advantage of adaptive over non-adaptive strategies for quantum channel discrimination. In particular, we give a pair of entanglement-breaking channels that can be perfectly discriminated by means of an ...

Host albumin redirects Candida albicans metabolism to engage an alternative pathogenicity pathway

Nature Communications
Pathogenicity mechanisms of the yeast Candida albicans involve filamentous growth, adhesion, invasion, and toxin production. Interestingly, clinical isolates, and other Candida spp., can cause infection independent of filamentation or toxin production ...
