Controlling Arbitrary Observables in Correlated Many-body Systems

Gerard McCaul, Christopher Orthodoxou, Kurt Jacobs +2

Here we present an expanded analysis of a model for the manipulation and control of observables in a strongly correlated, many-body system, which was first presented in [McCaul et…

Discrete Wigner Functions from Informationally Complete Quantum Measurements

John B. DeBrota, Blake C. Stacey

Wigner functions provide a way to do quantum physics using quasiprobabilities, that is, "probability" distributions that can go negative. Informationally complete POVMs, a much you…

Quantum geometric tensor away from Equilibrium

Davide Rattacaso, Alioscia Hamma, Patrizia Vitale

The manifold of ground states of a family of quantum Hamiltonians can be endowed with a quantum geometric tensor whose singularities signal quantum phase transitions and give a gen…

Entropy-Based Formulation of Thermodynamics in Arbitrary Quantum Evolution

S. Alipour, A. T. Rezakhani, A. Chenu +2

Given the evolution of an arbitrary open quantum system, we formulate a general and unambiguous method to separate the internal energy change of the system into an entropy-related…

Driven Imposters: Controlling Expectations in Many-Body Systems

Gerard McCaul, Christopher Orthodoxou, Kurt Jacobs +2

We present a framework to control and track the observables of a general solid state system driven by an incident laser field. The main result is a non-linear equation of motion fo…

Superadiabatic thermalization of a quantum oscillator by engineered dephasing

L. Dupays, I. L. Egusquiza, A. del Campo +1

Fast nonadiabatic control protocols known as shortcuts to adiabaticity have found a plethora of applications, but their use has been severely limited to speeding up the dynamics of…

Controlled-phase Gate using Dynamically Coupled Cavities and Optical Nonlinearities

Mikkel Heuck, Kurt Jacobs, Dirk R. Englund

We propose an architecture for a high-fidelity deterministic controlled-phase gate between two photonic qubits using bulk optical nonlinearities in near-term feasible photonic inte…

Fluctuations in extractable work bound the charging power of quantum batteries

Luis Pedro García-Pintos, Alioscia Hamma, Adolfo del Campo

We study the connection between the charging power of quantum batteries and the fluctuations of the extractable work. We prove that in order to have a non-zero rate of change of th…

A stroboscopic approach to trapped-ion quantum information processing with squeezed phonons

Wenchao Ge, Brian C. Sawyer, Joseph W. Britton +3

In trapped-ion quantum information processing, interactions between spins (qubits) are mediated by collective modes of motion of an ion crystal. While there are many different expe…

Limits to Perception by Quantum Monitoring with Finite Efficiency

Luis Pedro García-Pintos, Adolfo del Campo

We formulate limits to perception under continuous quantum measurements by comparing the quantum states assigned by agents that have partial access to measurement outcomes. To this…

Lüders Channels and the Existence of Symmetric Informationally Complete Measurements

John B. DeBrota, Blake C. Stacey

The Lüders rule provides a way to define a quantum channel given a quantum measurement. Using this construction, we establish an if-and-only-if condition for the existence of a …

Shortcuts to Adiabaticity in Driven Open Quantum Systems: Balanced Gain and Loss and Non-Markovian Evolution

S. Alipour, A Chenu, A. T. Rezakhani +1

A universal scheme is introduced to speed up the dynamics of a driven open quantum system along a prescribed trajectory of interest. This framework generalizes counterdiabatic driv…

Time evolution of correlation functions in quantum many-body systems

Álvaro M. Alhambra, Jonathon Riddell, Luis Pedro García-Pintos

We give rigorous analytical results on the temporal behavior of two-point correlation functions --also known as dynamical response functions or Green's functions-- in closed many-b…

Accurate Lindblad-Form Master Equation for Weakly Damped Quantum Systems Across All Regimes

Gavin McCauley, Benjamin Cruikshank, Denys I. Bondar +1

Realistic models of quantum systems must include dissipative interactions with an environment. For weakly-damped systems the Lindblad-form Markovian master equation is invaluable f…

Photon-Photon Interactions in Dynamically Coupled Cavities

Mikkel Heuck, Kurt Jacobs, Dirk R. Englund

We study theoretically the interaction between two photons in a nonlinear cavity. The photons are loaded into the cavity via a method we propose here, in which the input/output cou…
