An Efficient Secret Communication Scheme for the Bosonic Wiretap Channel

Esther Hänggi, Iyán Méndez Veiga, Ligong Wang

We propose a new secret communication scheme over the bosonic wiretap channel. It uses readily available hardware such as lasers and direct photodetectors. The scheme is based on r…

Quantum circuit algorithm for topological invariants of second order topological many-body quantum magnets

Sebastián Domínguez-Calderón, Marcel Niedermeier, Jose L. Lado +1

Topological quantum matter represents a flexible playground to engineer unconventional excitations. While non-interacting topological single-particle systems have been studied in d…

Feynman Path Integral of a charged anisotropic HO in crossed electric and magnetic fields. Alternative calculational methods

Cyril Belardinelli

In the present paper the author evaluates the path integral of a charged anisotropic Harmonic Oscillator (HO) in crossed electric and magnetic fields by two alternative methods. Bo…
