Experimental determination of a nonclassical Glauber-Sudarshan P function
T. Kiesel, W. Vogel, V. Parigi +2
A quantum state is nonclassical if its Glauber-Sudarshan P function fails to be interpreted as a probability density. This quantity is often highly singular, so that its reconstruc…
Exponential complexity and ontological theories of quantum mechanics
Alberto Montina
Ontological theories of quantum mechanics describe a single system by means of well-defined classical variables and attribute the quantum uncertainties to our ignorance about the u…
Two-spin entanglement distribution near factorized states
Fabrizio Baroni, Andrea Fubini, Valerio Tognetti +1
We study the two-spin entanglement distribution along the infinite chain described by the XY model in a transverse field; closed analytical expressions are derived for the…
Single-photon excitation of a coherent state: catching the elementary step of stimulated light emission
Alessandro Zavatta, Silvia Viciani, Marco Bellini
When a single quantum of electromagnetic field excitation is added to the same spatio-temporal mode of a coherent state, a new field state is generated that exhibits intermediate p…
Entanglement and factorized ground states in two-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets
Tommaso Roscilde, Paola Verrucchi, Andrea Fubini +2
Making use of exact results and quantum Monte Carlo data for the entanglement of formation, we show that the ground state of anisotropic two-dimensional S=1/2 antiferromagnets in a…
