Entangled Two-Photon Absorption in Cesium Atoms and the Limitations of the Far-Off-Resonance Approximation

Michael Caracas Núñez, Dario Egloff, Mayerlin Nuñez Portela

The discrepancies between theoretical and experimental results in the process of entangled two-photon absorption (ETPA) are not fully understood. Atomic systems are a promising alt…

Classical Invasive Description of Informationally-Complete Quantum Processes

Moritz F. Richter, Andrea Smirne, Walter T. Strunz +1

In classical stochastic theory, the joint probability distributions of a stochastic process obey by definition the Kolmogorov consistency conditions. Interpreting such a process as…

On the Role of Coherence in Shor's Algorithm

Felix Ahnefeld, Thomas Theurer, Dario Egloff +2

Shor's factoring algorithm provides a super-polynomial speed-up over all known classical factoring algorithms. Here, we address the question of which quantum properties fuel this a…

Inverse linear versus exponential scaling of work penalty in finite-time bit reset

Yi-Zheng Zhen, Dario Egloff, Kavan Modi +1

Bit reset is a basic operation in irreversible computing. This costs work and dissipates energy in the computer, creating a limit on speeds and energy efficiency of future irrevers…

Universal Bound on Energy Cost of Bit Reset in Finite Time

Yi-Zheng Zhen, Dario Egloff, Kavan Modi +1

We consider how the energy cost of bit reset scales with the time duration of the protocol. Bit reset necessarily takes place in finite time, where there is an extra penalty on top…

Experimental Control of the Degree of Non-Classicality via Quantum Coherence

Andrea Smirne, Thomas Nitsche, Dario Egloff +6

The origin of non-classicality in physical systems and its connection to distinctly quantum features such as entanglement and coherence is a central question in quantum physics. Th…

Experimental quantification of coherence of a tunable quantum detector

Huichao Xu, Feixiang Xu, Thomas Theurer +5

Quantum coherence is a fundamental resource that quantum technologies exploit to achieve performance beyond that of classical devices. A necessary prerequisite to achieve this adva…

Accessible coherence in open quantum system dynamics

María García Díaz, Benjamin Desef, Matteo Rosati +5

Quantum coherence generated in a physical process can only be cast as a potentially useful resource if its effects can be detected at a later time. Recently, the notion of non-cohe…

When is a non-Markovian quantum process classical?

Simon Milz, Dario Egloff, Philip Taranto +4

More than a century after the inception of quantum theory, the question of which traits and phenomena are fundamentally quantum remains under debate. Here we give an answer to this…

Quantifying Operations with an Application to Coherence

Thomas Theurer, Dario Egloff, Lijian Zhang +1

To describe certain facets of non-classicality, it is necessary to quantify properties of operations instead of states. This is the case if one wants to quantify how well an operat…

Of Local Operations and Physical Wires

Dario Egloff, Juan Mauricio Matera, Thomas Theurer +1

In this work (multipartite) entanglement, discord and coherence are unified as different aspects of a single underlying resource theory defined through simple and operationally mea…

Coherence and non-classicality of quantum Markov processes

Andrea Smirne, Dario Egloff, María García Díaz +2

Although quantum coherence is a basic trait of quantum mechanics, the presence of coherences in the quantum description of a certain phenomenon does not rule out the possibility to…

A resource theory of superposition

T. Theurer, N. Killoran, D. Egloff +1

The superposition principle lies at the heart of many non-classical properties of quantum mechanics. Motivated by this, we introduce a rigorous resource theory framework for the qu…

Coherent control of quantum systems as a resource theory

J. M. Matera, D. Egloff, N. Killoran +1

Control at the interface between the classical and the quantum world is fundamental in quantum physics. In particular, how classical control is enhanced by coherence effects is an…

A note on coherence power of N-dimensional unitary operators

M. García-Díaz, D. Egloff, M. B. Plenio

The coherence power of a quantum channel, that is, its ability to increase the coherence of input states, is a fundamental concept within the framework of the resource theory of co…

A measure of majorisation emerging from single-shot statistical mechanics

Dario Egloff, Oscar C. O. Dahlsten, Renato Renner +1

The use of the von Neumann entropy in formulating the laws of thermodynamics has recently been challenged. It is associated with the average work whereas the work guaranteed to be…
