Conditional Density Operators And The Subjectivity Of Quantum Operations, Matthew S. Leifer

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Assuming that quantum states, including pure states, represent subjective degrees of belief rather than objective properties of systems, the question of what other elements of the quantum formalism must also be taken as subjective is addressed. In particular, we ask this of the dynamical aspects of the formalism, such as Hamiltonians and unitary operators. Whilst some operations, such as the update maps corresponding to a complete projective measurement, must be subjective, the situation is not so clear in other cases. Here, it is argued that all trace preserving completely positive maps, including unitary operators, should be regarded as subjective, in …

A Conversation Among Deans, Katharine T. Bartlett, Edward Rubin, W. H. Knight

Faculty Scholarship

On March 10, 2006, the Harvard Journal of Law & Gender, Harvard Civil Rights-Civil Liberties Law Review, and Harvard Law Review co-sponsored a conference, "Results: Legal Education, Institutional Change, and a Decade of Gender Studies," to address the number of student experience studies that detail women's lower performance in and dissatisfaction with law school. Rather than advocate for a particular set of responses to the different experiences of men and women in legal education , this conference sought to foster a discussion about the institutional challenges these patterns highlight. As a means of accomplishing this end, law school deans from …

The Design Of An Undergraduate Degree Program In Computer & Digital Forensics, Gary C. Kessler, Michael E. Schirling

Security Studies & International Affairs - Daytona Beach

"Champlain College formally started an undergraduate degree program in Computer & Digital Forensics in 2003. The underlying goals were that the program be multidisciplinary, bringing together the law, computer technology, and the basics of digital investigations; would be available as on online and oncampus offering; and would have a process-oriented focus. Success of this program has largely been due to working closely with practitioners, maintaining activity in events related to both industry and academia, and flexibility to respond to ever-changing needs. This paper provides an overview of how this program was conceived, developed, and implemented; its evolution over time; and …

Handling The Subclassing Anomaly With Object Teams, Jeff Furlong, Atanas Radenski

Mathematics, Physics, and Computer Science Faculty Articles and Research

Existing Java software or libraries can evolve via subclassing. Unfortunately, subclassing may not properly support code adaptation when there are dependencies between classes. More precisely, subclassing in collections of related classes may require reimplementation of otherwise valid classes. This problem is defined as the subclassing anomaly, which is an issue when software evolution or code reuse is a goal of the programmer who is using existing classes. Object Teams offers an implicit fix to this problem and is largely compatible with the existing JVM’s. In this paper, we evaluate how well Object Teams succeeds in providing a solution for a …

Proposed Statement On Quality Control Standards : A Firm's System Of Quality Control;Firm's System Of Quality Control; Exposure Draft (American Institute Of Certified Public Accountants), 2006, July 28, American Institute Of Certified Public Accountants. Auditing Standards Board

Exposure Drafts, Comment Letters, and Statements of Position

The proposed SQCS defines the engagement quality control review (often referred to as a concurring review), and requires firms to establish criteria to determine which engagements are to be subject to an engagement quality control review. It also provides guidance on policies and procedures for performing engagement quality control reviews. An engagement quality control review should include a review of the financial statements or other subject matter information and the report, and, in particular, consideration of whether the report is appropriate. An engagement quality control review also should include either (i) a discussion with the practitioner-in-charge, (ii) a review of …

C-Loops: An Introduction, J.D. Phillips

Journal Articles

C-loops are loops satisfying x(y(yz)) = ((xy)y)z. They often behave analogously to Moufang loops and they are closely related to Steiner triple systems and combinatorics. We initiate the study of C-loops by proving: (i) Steiner loops are C-loops, (ii) C-loops are alternative, inverse property loops with squares in the nucleus, (iii) the nucleus of a C-loop is a normal subgroup, (iv) C-loops modulo their nucleus are Steiner loops, (v) C-loops are power associative, power alternative but not necessarily diassociative, (vi) torsion commutative C-loops are products of torsion abelian groups and torsion commutative 2-C-loops; and several other results. We also give …

On Twisted Subgroups And Bol Loops Of Odd Order, J.D. Phillips

Journal Articles

In the spirit of Glauberman’s fundamental work in B-loops and Moufang loops [18, 19], we prove Cauchy and strong Lagrange theorems for Bol loops of odd order. We also establish necessary conditions for the existence of a simple Bol loop of odd order, conditions which should be useful in the development of a Feit-Thompson theorem for Bol loops. Bol loops are closely related to Aschbacher’s twisted subgroups [1], and we survey the latter in some detail, especially with regard to the so-called Aschbacher radical.

Short Equational Bases For Two Varieties Of Groupoids Associated With Involuted Restrictive Bisemigroups Of Binary Relations, J.D. Phillips

Journal Articles

We sharpen the main results in [1] by finding short equational bases for two varieties of groupoids associated with involuted restrictive bisemigroups of binary relations. For the benefit of the reader we use the notation Bredikhin set in [1].

A Short Basis For The Variety Of Wip Pacc-Loops, J.D. Phillips

Journal Articles

The variety of weak inverse property, power-associative, conjugacy closed loops (WIP PACC-loops) is an ideal variety from which to investigate CCloops. We give a surprisingly short basis for this variety. We also give a useful associator identity.
