Operational meaning of quantum measures of recovery

Tom Cooney, Christoph Hirche, Ciara Morgan +4

Several information measures have recently been defined which capture the notion of "recoverability." In particular, the fidelity of recovery quantifies how well one can recover a…

Backaction driven, robust, steady-state long-distance qubit entanglement over lossy channels

Felix Motzoi, Eli Halperin, Xiaoting Wang +2

We present a scheme for generating robust and persistent entanglement between qubits that do not interact and that are separated by a long and lossy transmission channel, using Mar…

Entropic uncertainty and measurement reversibility

Mario Berta, Stephanie Wehner, Mark M. Wilde

The entropic uncertainty relation with quantum side information (EUR-QSI) from [Berta et al., Nat. Phys. 6, 659 (2010)] is a unifying principle relating two distinctive features of…

Single-photon orbital angular momentum qudit states in fiber - Limits to Dephasing correction via dynamical decoupling

Manish K. Gupta, Jonathan P. Dowling

We analytically derive a decoherence model for orbital angular momentum states of a photon in a multimode optical fiber and show that rate of decoherence scales exponentially with…

The Energy Cost of Controlling Mesoscopic Quantum Systems

Jordan Horowitz, Kurt Jacobs

We determine the minimum energy required to control the evolution of any mesoscopic quantum system in the presence of arbitrary Markovian noise processes. This result provides the…

Universal recovery maps and approximate sufficiency of quantum relative entropy

Marius Junge, Renato Renner, David Sutter +2

The data processing inequality states that the quantum relative entropy between two states and can never increase by applying the same quantum channel to both…

A Method for Generating All Uniform -Pulse Sequences Used in Deterministic Dynamical Decoupling

Haoyu Qi, Jonathan P. Dowling

Dynamical decoupling has been actively investigated since Viola first suggested using a pulse sequence to protect a qubit from decoherence. Since then, many schemes of dynamical de…

Implementing Scalable Boson Sampling with Time-Bin Encoding: Analysis of Loss, Mode Mismatch, and Time Jitter

Keith R. Motes, Jonathan P. Dowling, Alexei Gilchrist +1

It was recently shown by Motes, Gilchrist, Dowling & Rohde [PRL 113, 120501 (2014)] that a time-bin encoded fiber-loop architecture can implement an arbitrary passive linear optics…

Quantum data hiding in the presence of noise

Cosmo Lupo, Mark M. Wilde, Seth Lloyd

When classical or quantum information is broadcast to separate receivers, there exist codes that encrypt the encoded data such that the receivers cannot recover it when performing…

Work and reversibility in quantum thermodynamics

Álvaro M. Alhambra, Stephanie Wehner, Mark M. Wilde +1

It is a central question in quantum thermodynamics to determine how irreversible is a process that transforms an initial state to a final state , and whether such irreversib…

Sagnac interferometry with coherent vortex superposition states in exciton-polariton condensates

Frederick Ira Moxley, Jonathan P. Dowling, Weizhong Dai +1

We investigate prospects of using counter-rotating vortex superposition states in non-equilibrium exciton-polariton Bose-Einstein condensates for the purposes of Sagnac interferome…

Strong converse theorems using Rényi entropies

Felix Leditzky, Mark M. Wilde, Nilanjana Datta

We use a Rényi entropy method to prove strong converse theorems for certain information-theoretic tasks which involve local operations and quantum or classical communication betwee…

Strong converse exponents for the feedback-assisted classical capacity of entanglement-breaking channels

Dawei Ding, Mark M. Wilde

Quantum entanglement can be used in a communication scheme to establish a correlation between successive channel inputs that is impossible by classical means. It is known that the…

Swiveled Rényi entropies

Frédéric Dupuis, Mark M. Wilde

This paper introduces "swiveled Renyi entropies" as an alternative to the Renyi entropic quantities put forward in [Berta et al., Phys. Rev. A 91, 022333 (2015)]. What distinguishe…

Fundamental rate-loss tradeoff for optical quantum key distribution

Masahiro Takeoka, Saikat Guha, Mark M. Wilde

Since 1984, various optical quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols have been proposed and examined. In all of them, the rate of secret key generation decays exponentially with di…

Simulations of closed timelike curves

Todd A. Brun, Mark M. Wilde

Proposed models of closed timelike curves (CTCs) have been shown to enable powerful information-processing protocols. We examine the simulation of models of CTCs both by other mode…

Bounds on entanglement distillation and secret key agreement for quantum broadcast channels

Kaushik P. Seshadreesan, Masahiro Takeoka, Mark M. Wilde

The squashed entanglement of a quantum channel is an additive function of quantum channels, which finds application as an upper bound on the rate at which secret key and entangleme…

Rényi generalizations of quantum information measures

Mario Berta, Kaushik P. Seshadreesan, Mark M. Wilde

Quantum information measures such as the entropy and the mutual information find applications in physics, e.g., as correlation measures. Generalizing such measures based on the Rén…

Quantum mechanics, strong emergence and ontological non-reducibility

Rodolfo Gambini, Lucia Lewowicz, Jorge Pullin

We show that a new interpretation of quantum mechanics, in which the notion of event is defined without reference to measurement or observers, allows to construct a quantum general…

The Montevideo Interpretation of Quantum Mechanics: a short review

Rodolfo Gambini, Jorge Pullin

The Montevideo interpretation of quantum mechanics, which consists in supplementing environmental decoherence with fundamental limitations in measurement stemming from gravity, has…

Quantum Markov chains, sufficiency of quantum channels, and Renyi information measures

Nilanjana Datta, Mark M. Wilde

A short quantum Markov chain is a tripartite state such that system can be recovered perfectly by acting on system of the reduced state . Such states have…

Linear Optical Quantum Metrology with Single Photons: Exploiting Spontaneously Generated Entanglement to Beat the Shot-Noise Limit

Keith R. Motes, Jonathan P. Olson, Evan J. Rabeaux +3

Quantum number-path entanglement is a resource for super-sensitive quantum metrology and in particular provides for sub-shotnoise or even Heisenberg-limited sensitivity. However, s…
