Causal influence in operational probabilistic theories

Paolo Perinotti

We study the relation of causal influence between input systems of a reversible evolution and its output systems, in the context of operational probabilistic theories. We analyse t…

No purification ontology, no quantum paradoxes

Giacomo Mauro D'Ariano

It is almost universally believed that in quantum theory the two following statements hold: 1) all transformations are achieved by a unitary interaction followed by a von Neumann m…

Experimental Lower Bounds to the Classical Capacity of Quantum Channels

Mario A. Ciampini, Álvaro Cuevas, Paolo Mataloni +2

We show an experimental procedure to certify the classical capacity for noisy qubit channels. The method makes use of a fixed bipartite entangled state, where the system qubit is s…

Disorder-Enhanced and Disorder-Independent Transport with Long-Range Hopping: Application to Molecular Chains in Optical Cavities

Nahum C. Chávez, Francesco Mattiotti, J. A. Méndez-Bermúdez +2

Overcoming the detrimental effect of disorder at the nanoscale is very hard since disorder induces localization and an exponential suppression of transport efficiency. Here we unve…

Unambiguous discrimination of Fermionic states through local operations and classical communication

Matteo Lugli, Paolo Perinotti, Alessandro Tosini

The paper studies unambiguous discrimination of Fermionic states through local operations and classical communication (LOCC). In the task of unambiguous discrimination, no error is…

Classicality without local discriminability: decoupling entanglement and complementarity

Giacomo Mauro D'Ariano, Marco Erba, Paolo Perinotti

An operational probabilistic theory where all systems are classical, and all pure states of composite systems are entangled, is constructed. The theory is endowed with a rule for c…

Quantum computing model of an artificial neuron with continuously valued input data

Stefano Mangini, Francesco Tacchino, Dario Gerace +2

Artificial neural networks have been proposed as potential algorithms that could benefit from being implemented and run on quantum computers. In particular, they hold promise to gr…

Experimental witnessing of the quantum channel capacity in the presence of correlated noise

Valeria Cimini, Ilaria Gianani, Massimiliano F. Sacchi +2

We present an experimental method to detect lower bounds to the quantum capacity of two-qubit communication channels. We consider an implementation with polarisation degrees of fre…

Bio-inspired natural sunlight-pumped lasers

Francesco Mattiotti, William M. Brown, Nicola Piovella +3

Even though sunlight is by far the most abundant renewable energy source available to humanity, its dilute and variable nature has kept efficient ways to collect, store, and distri…

Open quantum systems decay across time

Juliane Klatt, Chahan Michael Kropf, Stefan Yoshi Buhmann

The description of an open quantum system's decay almost always requires several approximations as to remain tractable. Here, we first revisit the meaning, domain and seeming contr…

The four postulates of quantum mechanics are three

Gabriele Carcassi, Lorenzo Maccone, Christine A. Aidala

The tensor product postulate of quantum mechanics states that the Hilbert space of a composite system is the tensor product of the components' Hilbert spaces. All current formaliza…

Fermionic state discrimination by local operations and classical communication

Matteo Lugli, Paolo Perinotti, Alessandro Tosini

We consider the problem of local operations and classical communication (LOCC) discrimination between two bipartite pure states of fermionic systems. We show that, contrary to the…

Bounding the Classical Capacity of Multilevel Damping Quantum Channels

Chiara Macchiavello, Massimiliano F. Sacchi, Tito Sacchi

A recent method to certify the classical capacity of quantum communication channels is applied for general damping channels in finite dimension. The method compares the mutual info…

Quantum thermodynamics of two bosonic systems

Chiara Macchiavello, Alberto Riccardi, Massimiliano F. Sacchi

We study the energy exchange between two bosonic systems that interact via bilinear transformations in the mode operators. The first mode is considered as the thermodynamic system,…
