Amount of quantum coherence needed for measurement incompatibility

Jukka Kiukas, Daniel McNulty, Juha-Pekka Pellonpää

A pair of quantum observables diagonal in the same "incoherent" basis can be measured jointly, so some coherence is obviously required for measurement incompatibility. Here we firs…

How to design quantum-jump trajectories via distinct master equation representations

Dariusz Chruściński, Kimmo Luoma, Jyrki Piilo +1

Every open-system dynamics can be associated to infinitely many stochastic pictures, called unravelings, which have proved to be extremely useful in several contexts, both from the…
