Computational quantum field theory for fermion pair creation in 2-dimensional curved spacetimes
Mohammed Alkhateeb, James P. Edwards, Yves Caudano
Similarly to the well-known phenomenon of particle / anti-particle pair production in strong electromagnetic fields (the Schwinger effect), the naïve matter field vacuum state can…
A paradox in the quantum-mechanical treatment of destructive measurements on photons
Marcoen J. T. F. Cabbolet, Yves Caudano
Measurements on photons are frequently cited as confirmations of predictions of quantum mechanics (QM), in particular in the context of Bell's theorem. In this paper we show, howev…
Wick rotation derivation for weak values of the density and time-dependent density functional theory
Russell B. Thompson, Zarin Tasneem, Yves Caudano
The equations of time-dependent density functional theory are derived, via the expression for a quantum weak value, from ring polymer self-consistent field theory using a mathemati…
Leveraging modular values in quantum algorithms: the Deutsch-Jozsa
Lorena Ballesteros Ferraz, Timoteo Carletti, Yves Caudano
We present a novel approach to quantum algorithms, by taking advantage of modular values, i.e., complex and unbounded quantities resulting from specific post-selected measurement s…
