Dynamical Casimir effect and minimal temperature in quantum thermodynamics

G. Benenti, G. Strini

We study the fundamental limitations of cooling to absolute zero for a qubit, interacting with a single mode of the electromagnetic field. Our results show that the dynamical Casim…

Two-step procedure to discriminate discordant from classical correlated or factorized states

Simone Cialdi, Andrea Smirne, Matteo G. A. Paris +2

We devise and experimentally realize a procedure capable of detecting and distinguishing quantum discord and classical correlations as well the presence of factorized states in a j…

The Hopfield model revisited: Covariance and Quantization

F. Belgiorno, S. L. Cacciatori, F. Dalla Piazza

There are several possible applications of quantum electrodynamics in dielectric media which require a quantum description for the electromagnetic field interacting with matter fie…

Expanding the principle of local distinguishability

Claudio Carmeli, Teiko Heinosaari, Jussi Schultz +1

The principle of local distinguishability states that an arbitrary physical state of a bipartite system can be determined by the combined statistics of local measurements performed…

Classical dynamical localization

Italo Guarneri, Giulio Casati, Volker Karle

We consider classical models of the kicked rotor type, with piecewise linear kicking potentials designed so that momentum changes only by multiples of a given constant. Their dynam…

Experimental on-demand recovery of entanglement by local operations within non-Markovian dynamics

Adeline Orieux, Antonio d'Arrigo, Giacomo Ferranti +6

In many applications entanglement must be distributed through noisy communication channels that unavoidably degrade it. Entanglement cannot be generated by local operations and cla…

Dissipative extension of the Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber model

Andrea Smirne, Bassano Vacchini, Angelo Bassi

In this paper we present an extension of the Ghirardi-Rimini-Weber model for the spontaneous collapse of the wavefunction. Through the inclusion of dissipation, we avoid the diverg…

Real-time phase-reference monitoring of a quasi-optimal coherent-state receiver

Matteo Bina, Alessia Allevi, Maria Bondani +1

The Kennedy-like receiver is a quasi-optimal receiver employed in binary phase-shift-keyed communication schemes with coherent states. It is based on the interference of the two si…

Dynamical Casimir Effect in Quantum Information Processing

Giuliano Benenti, Antonio D'Arrigo, Stefano Siccardi +1

We demonstrate, in the regime of ultrastrong matter-field coupling, the strong connection between the dynamical Casimir effect (DCE) and the performance of quantum information prot…

Quantum regression theorem and non-Markovianity of quantum dynamics

Giacomo Guarnieri, Andrea Smirne, Bassano Vacchini

We explore the connection between two recently introduced notions of non-Markovian quantum dynamics and the validity of the so-called quantum regression theorem. While non-Markovia…

General structure of quantum collisional models

Bassano Vacchini

We point to the connection between a recently introduced class of non-Markovian master equations and the general structure of quantum collisional models. The basic construction rel…

Single-Photon Observables and Preparation Uncertainty Relations

G. Guarnieri, M. Motta, L. Lanz

We propose a procedure for defining all single-photon observables in terms of Positive-Operator Valued Measures (POVMs), in particular spin and position. We identify the suppressio…

The data aggregation problem in quantum hypothesis testing

Simone Cialdi, Matteo G. A. Paris

We discuss the implications of quantum-classical Yule-Simpson effect for quantum hypothesis testing in the presence of noise, and provide an experimental demonstration of its occur…

Perturbative photon production in a dispersive medium

Francesco Belgiorno, Sergio Luigi Cacciatori, Francesco Dalla Piazza

We investigate photon pair-creation in a dispersive dielectric medium induced by the presence of a spacetime varying dielectric constant. Our aim is to examine the possibility to o…

Hidden entanglement, system-environment information flow and non-Markovianity

A. D'Arrigo, G. Benenti, R. Lo Franco +2

It is known that entanglement dynamics of two noninteracting qubits, locally subjected to classical environments, may exhibit revivals. A simple explanation of this phenomenon may…
