Fragmented imaginary-time evolution for early-stage quantum signal processors

Thais de Lima Silva, Márcio M. Taddei, Stefano Carrazza +1

Simulating quantum imaginary-time evolution (QITE) is a major promise of quantum computation. However, the known algorithms are either probabilistic (repeat until success) with imp…

Nonclassical properties and Anderson localization of quantum states in coupled waveguides

Thais L. Silva, Wesley B. Cardoso, Ardiley T. Avelar +1

We consider the propagation of light beams through disordered lattices of coupled waveguides searching for Anderson localization and investigating the evolution of nonclassical pro…

Two-point measurement of entropy production from the outcomes of a single experiment with correlated photon pairs

Gabriel H. Aguilar, Thaís L. Silva, Thiago E. Guimarães +3

Fluctuation theorems are one of the pillars of non-equilibrium thermodynamics. Broadly speaking, they concern the statistical distribution of quantities such as heat, work or entro…

Classical and Quantum Light: Versatile tools for quantum foundations and quantum information

Thais de Lima Silva

Light beams offer many degrees of freedom to be explored in discrete and continuous domains. In addition to the possibility of entangling photons in these many degrees of freedom,…

Periodic discretized continuous observables are neither continuous nor discrete

Thais L. Silva, Łukasz Rudnicki, Daniel S. Tasca +1

Most of the fundamental characteristics of quantum mechanics, such as non-locality and contextuality, are manifest in discrete, finite-dimensional systems. However, many quantum in…

Detection of quantum non-Markovianity close to the Born-Markov approximation

Thais de Lima Silva, Stephen P. Walborn, Marcelo F. Santos +2

We calculate in an exact way the conditional past-future correlation for the decay dynamics of a two-level system in a bosonic bath. Different measurement processes are considered.…

Exposure of subtle multipartite quantum nonlocality

M. M. Taddei, T. L. Silva, R. V. Nery +3

The celebrated Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen quantum steering has a complex structure in the multipartite scenario. We show that a naively defined criterion for multipartite steering all…

Optical simulation of the free Dirac equation

Thais de Lima Silva, Emile R. F. Taillebois, Rafael. M. Gomes +2

We present a classical optics simulation of the one-dimensional Dirac equation for a free particle. Positive and negative energy components are represented by orthogonal polarizati…
