Criticality-enhanced global frequency sensing with a monitored Kerr parametric oscillator via extended Kalman filter

Cheng Zhang, Mauro Cirio, Xin-Qi Li +1

We analyze a global sensing scenario in which the frequency of a monitored Kerr parametric oscillator is estimated assuming limited prior information. The frequency is estimated in…

Exact description of fermionic reservoirs via purified damped ancillary fermions

Pengfei Liang, Neill Lambert, Mauro Cirio

We present a method for the modeling of fermionic reservoirs using a new class of ancillary damped fermions, dubbed purified pseudofermions, which exhibit unusual free correlations…

Purified pseudomode model for nonlinear system-bath interactions

Cheng Zhang, Neill Lambert, Xin-Qi Li +2

The theory of purified pseudomodes [arXiv:2412.04264 (2024)] was recently developed to provide a numerical tool for the analysis of the properties of a quantum system and the envir…

Enhancing information retrieval in quantum-optical critical systems via quantum measurement backaction

Cheng Zhang, Mauro Cirio, Xin-Qi Li +1

Continuous monitoring of open quantum-optical systems offers a promising route towards quantum-enhanced estimation precision. In such continuous-measurement-based sensing protocols…

Input-Output Hierarchical Equations Of Motion

Mauro Cirio, Pengfei Liang, Neill Lambert

We derive an extended version of the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) to compute output physical properties of a bosonic environment, which is allowed to be initially prepar…

Fixing detailed balance in ancilla-based dissipative state engineering

Neill Lambert, Mauro Cirio, Jhen-dong Lin +3

Dissipative state engineering is a general term for a protocol which prepares the ground state of a complex many-body Hamiltonian using engineered dissipation or engineered environ…
