Notes on Adiabatic Quantum Computers

Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen

We discuss in this chapter the basics of adiabatic computation, as well as some physical implementations. After a short introduction of the quantum circuit model, we describe quant…

Controlling spin relaxation with a cavity

A. Bienfait, J. J. Pla, Y. Kubo +9

Spontaneous emission of radiation is one of the fundamental mechanisms by which an excited quantum system returns to equilibrium. For spins, however, spontaneous emission is genera…

Coupling a single Nitrogen-Vacancy center to a superconducting flux qubit in the far off resonance regime

Tom Douce, Michael Stern, Nicim Zagury +2

We present a theoretical proposal to couple a single Nitrogen-Vacancy (NV) center to a superconducting flux qubit (FQ) in the regime where both systems are off resonance. The coupl…

Reaching the quantum limit of sensitivity in electron spin resonance

A. Bienfait, J. J. Pla, Y. Kubo +12

We report pulsed electron-spin resonance (ESR) measurements on an ensemble of Bismuth donors in Silicon cooled at 10mK in a dilution refrigerator. Using a Josephson parametric micr…

Asymptotic work statistics of periodically driven Ising chains

Angelo Russomanno, Shraddha Sharma, Amit Dutta +1

We study the work statistics of a periodically-driven integrable closed quantum system, addressing in particular the role played by the presence of a quantum critical point. Taking…

Induced Representations of Tensors and Spinors of any Rank in the SHP Theory

Lawrence P. Horwitz, Meir Zeilig-Hess

We show that a modification of Wigner's induced representation for the description of a relativistic particle with spin can be used to construct spinors and tensors of arbitrary ra…

A Holevo-type bound for a Hilbert Schmidt distance measure

Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen

We prove a new version of the Holevo bound employing the Hilbert-Schmidt norm instead of the Kullback-Leibler divergence. Suppose Alice is sending classical information to Bob usin…

Dynamical Stability of a Many-body Kapitza Pendulum

Roberta Citro, Emanuele G. Dalla Torre, Luca DÁlessio +4

We consider a many-body generalization of the Kapitza pendulum: the periodically-driven sine-Gordon model. We show that this interacting system is dynamically stable to periodic dr…

On the Power of Weak Measurements in Separating Quantum States

Boaz Tamir, Eliahu Cohen, Avner Priel

We investigate the power of weak measurements in the framework of quantum state discrimination. First, we define and analyze the notion of weak consecutive measurements. Our main r…
