A no-go result on the purification of quantum states

C. Di Franco, M. Paternostro

The information encoded in a quantum system is generally spoiled by the influences of its environment, leading to a transition from pure to mixed states. Reducing the mixedness of…

Entanglement control via reservoir engineering in ultracold atomic gases

Suzanne McEndoo, Pinja Haikka, Gabriele de Chiara +2

We study the entanglement of two impurity qubits immersed in a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) reservoir. This open quantum system is particularly interesting because the reservoir…

N-dimensional alternate coined quantum walks from a dispersion relation perspective

Eugenio Roldán, Carlo Di Franco, Fernando Silva +1

We propose an alternative definition of an N-dimensional coined quantum walk by generalizing a recent proposal [Di Franco et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 106, 080502 (2011)]. This N-dimen…

Transferring entanglement to the steady-state of flying qubits

Yanqiang Guo, Jie Li, Tiancai Zhang +1

The transfer of entanglement from optical fields to qubits provides a viable approach to entangling remote qubits in a quantum network. In cavity quantum electrodynamics, the schem…

Dynamical scattering models in optomechanics: Going beyond the 'coupled cavities' model

André Xuereb, Peter Domokos

Recently [A. Xuereb, et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 013602 (2010)], we calculated the radiation field and the optical forces acting on a moving object inside a general one-dimension…

Unification of witnessing initial system-environment correlations and witnessing non-Markovianity

César A. Rodríguez-Rosario, Kavan Modi, Laura Mazzola +1

We show the connection between a witness that detects dynamical maps with initial system-environment correlations and a witness that detects non-Markovian open quantum systems. Our…
