    Abstract We study genuine entanglement among $3$-qubits undergoing through a noisy process including dissipation, squeezing and decoherence. We obtain a general solution and analyze the asymptotic quantum states. It turns out that most of these asymptotic states can be genuinely entangled depending upon parameters of channel, memory parameter, and parameters of initial states. We study Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states and W states, mixed with white noise and determine the conditions for them to be genuinely entangled at infinity. We find that for these mixtures, it is possible to start with bi-separable state (with specific mixture of white noise as described below) and end up with genuine entangled states. However, the memory parameter $\mu$ must be very high. We find that in contrast to two-qubit case, all three qubit asymptotic states for $n \to \infty$ are not genuinely entangled.

    Abstract Background: The use of unhealthy food and a sedentary lifestyle increases daily health problems. Renal stones are one among others. Endourology promises the minimum complications and the highest stone clearance rate. Indications of the two procedures overlap micro-PCNL and RIRS. The objective was to evaluate stone clearance and complication rate of micro-PCNL and RIRS for lower pole renal stones.
    Methods: The research design of this study was a randomized trial and was done after approval of the ethical review committee. The sampling technique was consecutive sampling at the Urology department. Patients included in the study according to inclusion criteria were 96 in number. Randomization into two groups (RIRS vs micro-PCNL) was done by even odd method. All the procedure was done by a single senior urologist.
    Results: Their ratio among males and females was 2:1. Mean LOS in the RIRS group was 2.89±0.86 days and in the micro-PCNL group 2.58±0.65 days (p=0.047). The complication rate in the RIRS group was 6.2% and 8.3% in micro-PCNL (p=0.695). Mean post-operative haemoglobin was 12.30±1.07 g/dL among the RIRS group and among the micro-PCNL group it was 11.21±1.08 g/dL (p<0.001). There was an average haemoglobin drop in the micro-PCNL group of 1.09±0.01 g/dL. 75% clearance of stone after one session was achieved in the RIRS group while 79.2% was achieved in the micro-PCNL group (p=0.627).
    Conclusion: Length of hospital stay (LOS) and stone clearance rate (SFR) were similar in both groups with insignificant statistical differences. There is a need to conduct more studies with a large number of study participants and involving multi-centers.

    Abstract Prostate cancer is the second most commonly diagnosed malignancy in men worldwide. The prevalence has been increasing with significant differences between regions. This study assesses the prevalence of incidental prostate cancer detected in specimens removed during bladder outlet obstruction operation. A retrospective analysis of the records of patients who had either endoscopic or open prostatectomy from January 1998 to December 2021 was conducted. The variables analysed were age, procedure, date of surgery, and Gleason score. A total of 2,842 patients underwent surgery on the prostate gland during the study period. Most of the patients, i.e. 2,733 (96.2%), were pathologically diagnosed with benign prostatic hyperplasia, while only 110 (3.9%) had prostate cancer. The frequency of incidental prostate cancer following surgery for bladder outlet obstruction has decreased over the last two decades at our centre, possibly because of an increase in PSA testing.

    Abstract In recent decades, Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANET) have emerged as a promising field that provides real-time communication between vehicles for comfortable driving and human safety. However, the Internet of Vehicles (IoV) platform faces some serious problems in the deployment of robust authentication mechanisms in resource-constrained environments and directly affects the efficiency of existing VANET schemes. Moreover, the security of the information becomes a critical issue over an open wireless access medium. In this paper, an efficient and secure lightweight anonymous mutual authentication and key establishment (SELWAK) for IoT-based VANETs is proposed. The proposed scheme requires two types of mutual authentication: V2V and V2R. In addition, SELWAK maintains secret keys for secure communication between Roadside Units (

    Abstract A breast tissue biopsy is performed to identify the nature of a tumour, as it can be either cancerous or benign. The first implementations involved the use of machine learning algorithms. Random Forest and Support Vector Machine (SVM) were used to classify the input histopathological images into whether they were cancerous or non-cancerous. The implementations continued to provide promising results, and then Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) were applied for this purpose. We propose an approach for reconstructing the images using a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) and the Denoising Variational Autoencoder (DVAE) and then use a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model. Afterwards, we predicted whether the input image was cancerous or non-cancerous. Our implementation provides predictions with 73% accuracy, which is greater than the results produced by our custom-built CNN on our dataset. The proposed architecture will prove to be a new field of research and a new area to be explored in the field of computer vision using CNN and Generative Modelling since it incorporates reconstructions of the original input images and provides predictions on them thereafter.

    Abstract Modern power systems face a grand challenge in grid management due to increased electricity demand, imminent disturbances, and uncertainties associated with renewable generation, which can compromise grid security. The security assessment is directly connected to the robustness of the operating condition and is evaluated by analyzing proximity to the power flow solution space's boundary. Calculating location of such a boundary is a computationally challenging task, linked to the power flow equations' non-linear nature, presence of technological constraints, and complicated network topology. In this paper we introduce a general framework to characterize points on the power flow solution space boundary in terms of auxiliary variables subject to algebraic constraints. Then we develop an adaptive continuation algorithm to trace 1-dimensional sections of boundary curves which exhibits robust performance and computational tractability. Implementation of the algorithm is described in detail, and its performance is validated on different test networks.

    Abstract In solid materials, nontrivial topological states, electron correlations, and magnetism are central ingredients for realizing quantum properties, including unconventional superconductivity, charge and spin density waves, and quantum spin liquids. The Kagome lattice, made up of connected triangles and hexagons, can host these three ingredients simultaneously and has proven to be a fertile platform for studying diverse quantum phenomena including those stemming from the interplay of these ingredients. In this review, we introduce the fundamental properties of the Kagome lattice as well as discuss the complex observed phenomena seen in several emergent material systems such as the intertwining of charge order and superconductivity in some Kagome metals, modulation of magnetism and topology in some Kagome magnets, and symmetry breaking with Mott physics in the breathing Kagome insulators. We also highlight many open questions in the field as well as future research directions of Kagome systems.
