Significant-loophole-free test of Bell's theorem with entangled photons

Marissa Giustina, Marijn A. M. Versteegh, Sören Wengerowsky +19

Local realism is the worldview in which physical properties of objects exist independently of measurement and where physical influences cannot travel faster than the speed of light…

Sufficient separability criteria and linear maps

Maciej Lewenstein, Remigiusz Augusiak, Dariusz Chruściński +2

We study families of positive and completely positive maps acting on a bipartite system (with ). The maps have a property that when appl…

Atom-field dressed states in slow-light waveguide QED

Giuseppe Calajo, Francesco Ciccarello, Darrick Chang +1

We discuss the properties of atom-photon bound states in waveguide QED systems consisting of single or multiple atoms coupled strongly to a finite-bandwidth photonic channel. Such…

Work and entropy production in generalised Gibbs ensembles

M. Perarnau-Llobet, A. Riera, R. Gallego +2

Recent years have seen an enormously revived interest in the study of thermodynamic notions in the quantum regime. This applies both to the study of notions of work extraction in t…

Semi device independence of the BB84 protocol

Erik Woodhead

The BB84 quantum key distribution protocol is semi device independent in the sense that it can be shown to be secure if just one of the users' devices is restricted to a qubit Hilb…

Entanglement of an Impurity in a Few-Body One-Dimensional Ideal Bose System

M. A. García-March, A. S. Dehkharghani, N. T. Zinner

We study the correlation between an impurity and a small ensemble of bosonic particles in one dimension. Our study analyzes the one-body density matrix and calculates the correspon…

General method for constructing local-hidden-variable models for entangled quantum states

Daniel Cavalcanti, Leonardo Guerini, Rafael Rabelo +1

Entanglement allows for the nonlocality of quantum theory, which is the resource behind device-independent quantum information protocols. However, not all entangled quantum states…

The ultimate precision limits for noisy frequency estimation

Andrea Smirne, Jan Kolodynski, Susana F. Huelga +1

Quantum metrology protocols allow to surpass precision limits typical to classical statistics. However, in recent years, no-go theorems have been formulated, which state that typic…

Photon molecules in atomic gases trapped near photonic crystal waveguides

James S. Douglas, Tommaso Caneva, Darrick E. Chang

Realizing systems that support robust, controlled interactions between individual photons is an exciting frontier of nonlinear optics. To this end, one approach that has emerged re…

Self-testing protocols based on the chained Bell inequalities

Ivan Šupić, Remigiusz Augusiak, Alexia Salavrakos +1

Self testing is a device-independent technique based on non-local correlations whose aim is to certify the effective uniqueness of the quantum state and measurements needed to prod…

Energetics of correlations in interacting systems

Nicolai Friis, Marcus Huber, Martí Perarnau-Llobet

A fundamental connection between thermodynamics and information theory arises from the fact that correlations exhibit an inherent work value. For noninteracting systems this transl…

Genuine quantum coherence

Julio I. de Vicente, Alexander Streltsov

Any quantum resource theory is based on free states and free operations, i.e., states and operations which can be created and performed at no cost. In the resource theory of cohere…

Thermodynamic resource theories, non-commutativity and maximum entropy principles

Matteo Lostaglio, David Jennings, Terry Rudolph

We discuss some features of thermodynamics in the presence of multiple conserved quantities. We prove a generalisation of Landauer principle illustrating tradeoffs between the eras…

A strong loophole-free test of local realism

Lynden K. Shalm, Evan Meyer-Scott, Bradley G. Christensen +31

We present a loophole-free violation of local realism using entangled photon pairs. We ensure that all relevant events in our Bell test are spacelike separated by placing the parti…

Trace-distance measure of coherence

Swapan Rana, Preeti Parashar, Maciej Lewenstein

We show that trace distance measure of coherence is a strong monotone for all qubit and, so called, states. An expression for the trace distance coherence for all pure states a…

Unbounded randomness certification using sequences of measurements

F. J. Curchod, M. Johansson, R. Augusiak +3

Unpredictability, or randomness, of the outcomes of measurements made on an entangled state can be certified provided that the statistics violate a Bell inequality. In the standard…

Towards resource theory of coherence in distributed scenarios

Alexander Streltsov, Swapan Rana, Manabendra Nath Bera +1

The search for a simple description of fundamental physical processes is an important part of quantum theory. One example for such an abstraction can be found in the distance lab p…

Experimental loophole-free violation of a Bell inequality using entangled electron spins separated by 1.3 km

B. Hensen, H. Bernien, A. E. Dréau +16

For more than 80 years, the counterintuitive predictions of quantum theory have stimulated debate about the nature of reality. In his seminal work, John Bell proved that no theory…

Hybrid Entangled Entanglement in Vector Vortex Beams

Vincenzo D'Ambrosio, Gonzalo Carvacho, Francesco Graffitti +4

Light beams having a vectorial field structure - or polarization - that varies over the transverse profile and a central optical singularity are called vector-vortex (VV) beams and…
