Frustration free gapless Hamiltonians for Matrix Product States

Carlos Fernández-González, Norbert Schuch, Michael M. Wolf +2

For every Matrix Product State (MPS) one can always construct a so-called parent Hamiltonian. This is a local, frustration free, Hamiltonian which has the MPS as ground state and i…

Spontaneous Conversion from Virtual to Real Photons in the Ultrastrong Coupling Regime

R. Stassi, A. Ridolfo, O. Di Stefano +2

We show that a spontaneous release of virtual photon pairs can occur in a quantum optical system in the ultrastrong coupling regime. In this regime, which is attracting interest bo…

Standard super-activation for Gaussian channels requires squeezing

Daniel Lercher, Géza Giedke, Michael M. Wolf

The quantum capacity of bosonic Gaussian quantum channels can be non-additive in a particularly striking way: a pair of such optical-fiber type channels can individually have zero…
