Bell-CHSH inequality and unitary transformations in Quantum Field Theory

D. O. R. Azevedo, F. M. Guedes, M. S. Guimaraes +3

Unitary transformations are employed to enhance the violations of the Bell-CHSH inequality in relativistic Quantum Field Theory. The case of the scalar field in Minkowski spa…

Encoding High-level Quantum Programs as SZX-diagrams

Augustin Borgna, Rafael Romero

The Scalable ZX-calculus is a compact graphical language used to reason about linear maps between quantum states. These diagrams have multiple applications, but they frequently hav…

Qubit thermodynamics far from equilibrium: two perspectives about the nature of heat and work in the quantum regime

Andrés Vallejo, Alejandro Romanelli, Raúl Donangelo

Considering an entropy-based division of energy transferred into heat and work, we develop an alternative theoretical framework for the thermodynamic analysis of two-level systems.…

EPR steering in symmetrical Gaussian states

Eugenia Benech, Adriana Auyuanet, Arturo Lezama

We have explored quantum Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering in symmetric two-mode Gaussian states using Gaussian and non-Gaussian measurements. For Gaussian measurements, we show tha…

The Montevideo Interpretation: How the inclusion of a Quantum Gravitational Notion of Time Solves the Measurement Problem

Rodolfo Gambini, Jorge Pullin

We review the Montevideo Interpretation of quantum mechanics, which is based on the use of real clocks to describe physics, using the framework recently introduced by Hoehn, Smith…

Entanglement-Coherence and Discord-Coherence analytical relations for X states

J. D. Young, A. Auyuanet

In this work we derive analytical relations between Entanglement and Coherence as well as between Discord and Coherence, for Bell-diagonal states and for X states, evolving under t…

Entropy production in the quantum walk

Andrés Vallejo, Alejandro Romanelli, Raúl Donangelo +1

We explore the notion of generated entropy in open quantum systems. We focus on the study of the discrete-time quantum walk on the line, from the entropy production perspective. We…

Out-of-equilibrium quantum thermodynamics in the Bloch sphere: temperature and internal entropy production

Andrés Vallejo, Alejandro Romanelli, Raúl Donangelo

An explicit expression for the temperature of an open two-level quantum system is obtained as a function of local properties, under the hypothesis of weak interaction with the envi…

Initial-state-dependent thermalization in open qubits

Andrés Vallejo, Alejandro Romanelli, Raul Donangelo

We study, from a thermodynamic perspective, the equilibrium states of a qubit interacting with an arbitrary environment of dimension N>>2. We show that even in presence of memory a…

A single-world consistent interpretation of quantum mechanics from fundamental time and length uncertainties

Rodolfo Gambini, Luis Pedro García Pintos, Jorge Pullin

Within ordinary ---unitary--- quantum mechanics there exist global protocols that allow to verify that no definite event ---an outcome to which a probability can be associated--- o…

Full statistics of ideal homodyne detection using real (noisy) local oscillator

A. Auyuanet, E. Benech, H. Failache +1

We show that the full statistics of the two detectors outputs in a balanced homodyne detection setup involving a local oscillator in an ideal coherent state is experimentally acces…

Computing partial transposes and related entanglement functions

Jonas Maziero

The partial transpose (PT) is an important function for entanglement testing and quantification and also for the study of geometrical aspects of the quantum state space. In this ar…

Transient temperature and mixing times of quantum walks on cycles

Nicolás Díaz, Raul Donangelo, Renato Portugal +1

The definition of entanglement temperature for the quantum walk on the line is extended to -cycles, which are more amenable to a physical implementation. We show that, for these…
