All-optical quantum simulator of qubit noisy channels

Simone Cialdi, Matteo A. C. Rossi, Claudia Benedetti +4

We suggest and demonstrate an all-optical quantum simulator for single-qubit noisy channels originating from the interaction with a fluctuating field. The simulator employs the pol…

Quantum Critical Scaling under Periodic Driving

Salvatore Lorenzo, Jamir Marino, Francesco Plastina +2

Universality is key to the theory of phase transition stating that the equilibrium properties of observables near a phase transition can be classified according to few critical exp…

Generalized master equations leading to completely positive dynamics

Bassano Vacchini

We provide a general construction of quantum generalized master equations with memory kernel leading to well defined, that is completely positive and trace preserving, time evoluti…

Probing quantum state space: does one have to learn everything to learn something?

Claudio Carmeli, Teiko Heinosaari, Jussi Schultz +1

Determining the state of a quantum system is a consuming procedure. For this reason, whenever one is interested only in some particular property of a state, it would be desirable t…

Noisy quantum walks of two indistinguishable interacting particles

Ilaria Siloi, Claudia Benedetti, Enrico Piccinini +4

We investigate the dynamics of continuous-time two-particle quantum walks on a one-dimensional noisy lattice. Depending on the initial condition, we show how the interplay between…

Trade-off between speed and cost in shortcuts to adiabaticity

Steve Campbell, Sebastian Deffner

Achieving effectively adiabatic dynamics is a ubiquitous goal in almost all areas of quantum physics. Here, we study the speed with which a quantum system can be driven when employ…

Quantum non-Markovianity induced by Anderson localization

Salvatore Lorenzo, Federico Lombardo, Francesco Ciccarello +1

As discovered by P. W. Anderson, excitations do not propagate freely in a disordered lattice, but, due to destructive interference, they localise. As a consequence when an atom int…

High-order dispersion effects in two-photon interference

Z. Mazzotta, S. Cialdi, D. Cipriani +2

Two-photon interference and Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) effect are relevant tools for quantum metrology and quantum information processing. In optical coherence tomography, HOM effect is…

Energy backflow in strongly coupled non-Markovian continuous-variables systems

Giacomo Guarnieri, Johannes Nokkala, Rebecca Schmidt +2

By employing the full counting statistics formalism, we characterize the first moment of energy that is exchanged during a generally non-Markovian evolution in non-driven continuou…

Characterization of qubit chains by Feynman probes

D. Tamascelli, C. Benedetti, S. Olivares +1

We address the characterization of qubit chains and assess the performances of local measurements compared to those provided by Feynman probes, i.e. nonlocal measurements realized…

Probing deformed quantum commutators

Matteo A. C. Rossi, Tommaso Giani, Matteo G. A. Paris

Quantum gravity theories predict a minimal length at the order of magnitude of the Planck length, under which the concepts of space and time lose every physical meaning. In quantum…

Quantum-limited estimation of continuous spontaneous localization

Sam McMillen, Matteo Brunelli, Matteo Carlesso +4

We apply the formalism of quantum estimation theory to extract information about potential collapse mechanisms of the continuous spontaneous localisation (CSL) form. In order to es…

Decoherence and noise in open quantum system dynamics

Bassano Vacchini

We consider the description of quantum noise within the framework of the standard Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics applied to a composite system environment setting.…

Quantum incompatibility in collective measurements

Claudio Carmeli, Teiko Heinosaari, Daniel Reitzner +2

We study the compatibility (or joint measurability) of quantum observables in a setting where the experimenter has access to multiple copies of a given quantum system, rather than…

Reduced dynamical maps in the presence of initial correlations

Bassano Vacchini, Giulio Amato

We introduce a general framework for the construction of completely positive dynamical evolutions in the presence of system-environment initial correlations. The construction relie…

Reconstruction of electromagnetic field states by a probe qubit

Fabrizio Angaroni, Giuliano Benenti, Giuliano Strini

We propose a method to measure the quantum state of a single mode of the electromagnetic field. The method is based on the interaction of the field with a probe qubit. The qubit po…

Quantum backflow effect and nonclassicality

Francesco Albarelli, Tommaso Guaita, Matteo G. A. Paris

The quantum backflow effect is a counterintuitive behavior of the probability current of a free particle, which may be negative even for states with vanishing negative momentum com…

Efficient Pure State Quantum Tomography from Five Orthonormal Bases

Claudio Carmeli, Teiko Heinosaari, Michael Kech +2

For any finite dimensional Hilbert space, we construct explicitly five orthonormal bases such that the corresponding measurements allow for efficient tomography of an arbitrary pur…

Probing the diamagnetic term in light-matter interaction

Matteo A. C. Rossi, Matteo Bina, Matteo G. A. Paris +3

We address the quantum estimation of the diamagnetic, or , term in an effective model of light-matter interaction featuring two coupled oscillators. First, we calculate the qu…
