Logarithmic coherence: Operational interpretation of -norm coherence

Swapan Rana, Preeti Parashar, Andreas Winter +1

We show that the distillable coherence---which is equal to the relative entropy of coherence---is, up to a constant factor, always bounded by the -norm measure of coherence…

Generalized Laws of Thermodynamics in the Presence of Correlations

Manabendra Nath Bera, Arnau Riera, Maciej Lewenstein +1

The laws of thermodynamics, despite their wide range of applicability, are known to break down when systems are correlated with their environments. Here, we generalize thermodynami…

Hybrid annealing using a quantum simulator coupled to a classical computer

Tobias Graß, Maciej Lewenstein

Finding the global minimum in a rugged potential landscape is a computationally hard task, often equivalent to relevant optimization problems. Simulated annealing is a computationa…

Low-temperature thermometry can be enhanced by strong coupling

Luis A. Correa, Martí Perarnau-Llobet, Karen V. Hovhannisyan +3

We consider the problem of estimating the temperature of a very cold equilibrium sample. The temperature estimates are drawn from measurements performed on a quantum probe st…

Simultaneous measurement of two non-commuting quantum variables: Solution of a dynamical model

Martí Perarnau-Llobet, Theo M. Nieuwenhuizen

The possibility of performing simultaneous measurements in quantum mechanics is investigated in the context of the Curie-Weiss model for a projective measurement. Concretely, we co…

Quantum control of photonic entanglement with a single sub-wavelength structure

Alexander Büse, Mathieu L. Juan, Nora Tischler +4

Quantum entanglement is the basic resource for most quantum information schemes. A fundamental problem of using photonic states as carriers of quantum information is that they inte…

Which-way double slit experiments and Born rule violation

James Q. Quach

In which-way double-slit experiments with perfect detectors, it is assumed that having a second detector at the slits is redundant, as it will not change the interference pattern.…

Sensitivity, quantum limits, and quantum enhancement of noise spectroscopies

Vito Giovanni Lucivero, Aleksandra Dimic, Jia Kong +2

We study the fundamental limits of noise spectroscopy using estimation theory, Faraday rotation probing of an atomic spin system, and squeezed light. We find a simple and general e…

Simulating positive-operator-valued measures with projective measurements

Michał Oszmaniec, Leonardo Guerini, Peter Wittek +1

Standard projective measurements represent a subset of all possible measurements in quantum physics, defined by positive-operator-valued measures. We study what quantum measurement…

Experimental multipartite entanglement and randomness certification of the W state in the quantum steering scenario

A. Máttar, P. Skrzypczyk, G. H. Aguilar +4

Recently [Cavalcanti \textit{et al.} Nat Commun \textbf{6}, 7941 (2015)] proposed a method to certify the presence of entanglement in asymmetric networks, where some users do not h…

Causal hierarchy of multipartite Bell nonlocality

Rafael Chaves, Daniel Cavalcanti, Leandro Aolita

As with entanglement, different forms of Bell nonlocality arise in the multipartite scenario. These can be defined in terms of relaxations of the causal assumptions in local hidden…

Energy as a detector of nonlocality of many-body spin systems

Jordi Tura, Gemma De las Cuevas, Remigiusz Augusiak +3

We present a method to show that low-energy states of quantum many-body interacting systems in one spatial dimension are nonlocal. We assign a Bell inequality to the Hamiltonian of…

Non-signaling deterministic models for non-local correlations have to be uncomputable
