Exponential Speedup of Entanglement Generation by Quantum Mpemba Effects

Sara M. Benjadi, Reinhold Egger, Igor Gornyi +1

Entanglement is a key resource for quantum technologies. We show that protocols employing quantum Mpemba effects allow one to exponentially accelerate the generation of entanglemen…

DC Conductance of X-shaped Majorana Interferometer reveals Non-Abelian Anyon Statistics

Domenico Giuliano, Andrea Nava, Reinhold Egger +1

We propose a four-terminal, X-shaped chiral Majorana interferometer with a central floating superconducting island, enabling the direct detection of the non-Abelian statistics of I…

Optimal speed-up of multi-step Pontus-Mpemba protocols

Marco Peluso, Reinhold Egger, Andrea Nava

The classical Mpemba effect is the counterintuitive phenomenon where hotter water freezes faster than colder water due to the breakdown of Newton's law of cooling after a sudden te…

Information transport and transport-induced entanglement in open fermion chains

Andrea Nava, Claudia Artiaco, Yuval Gefen +4

Understanding the entanglement dynamics in quantum many-body systems under steady-state transport conditions is an actively pursued challenging topic. Hydrodynamic equations, akin…

Speeding up Pontus-Mpemba effects via dynamical phase transitions

Andrea Nava, Reinhold Egger, Bidyut Dey +1

We demonstrate that open quantum systems exhibiting dynamical phase transitions (DPTs) allow for efficient protocols implementing the Pontus-Mpemba effect. The relaxation speed-up…

Pontus-Mpemba effects

Andrea Nava, Reinhold Egger

Mpemba effects occur after a sudden quench of control parameters if for ''far'' (or ''hot'') initial states with respect to a final target state, the relaxation time toward the tar…
