An equivalence between time-symmetry and cyclic causality in quantum theory

Eliot Jean, Ralph Silva, V. Vilasini

Understanding the relationship between the time-symmetric nature of physical laws and the apparent directionality of causality is a central question in quantum foundations. The sta…

Entropic costs of extracting classical ticks from a quantum clock

Vivek Wadhia, Florian Meier, Federico Fedele +12

We experimentally realize a quantum clock by using a charge sensor to count charges tunneling through a double quantum dot (DQD). Individual tunneling events are used as the clock'…

Optimal unitary trajectories under commuting target and cost observables; applications to cooling

Ralph Silva, Pharnam Bakhshinezhad, Fabien Clivaz

The preparation of quantum states, especially cooling, is a fundamental technology for nanoscale devices. The past decade has seen important results related to both the limits of s…

Tomography of clock signals using the simplest possible reference

Nuriya Nurgalieva, Ralph Silva, Renato Renner

We show that finite physical clocks always have well-behaved signals, namely that every waiting-time distribution generated by a physical process on a system of finite size is guar…

Optimal time estimation and the clock uncertainty relation for stochastic processes

Kacper Prech, Gabriel T. Landi, Florian Meier +4

Time estimation is a fundamental task that underpins precision measurement, global navigation systems, financial markets, and the organisation of everyday life. Many biological pro…
