Graphical calculus for Gaussian pure states
Nicolas C. Menicucci, Steven T. Flammia, Peter van Loock
We provide a unified graphical calculus for all Gaussian pure states, including graph transformation rules for all local and semi-local Gaussian unitary operations, as well as loca…
Simulating quantum effects of cosmological expansion using a static ion trap
Nicolas C. Menicucci, S. Jay Olson, Gerard J. Milburn
We propose a new experimental testbed that uses ions in the collective ground state of a static trap for studying the analog of quantum-field effects in cosmological spacetimes, in…
Verifiable nonlinear quantum evolution implies failure of density matrices to represent proper mixtures
Eric G. Cavalcanti, Nicolas C. Menicucci
In a recent Letter, Bennett and coworkers [1] argue that proofs of exotic quantum effects using closed timelike curves (CTC's) based on the work of Deutsch [2], or other nonlinear…
Arbitrarily Large Continuous-Variable Cluster States from a Single Quantum Nondemolition Gate
Nicolas C. Menicucci, Xian Ma, Timothy C. Ralph
We present a compact experimental design for producing an arbitrarily large optical continuous-variable cluster state using just one single-mode vacuum squeezer and one quantum non…
