Energy upper bound for structurally stable N-passive states
Raffaele Salvia, Vittorio Giovannetti
Passive states are special configurations of a quantum system which exhibit no energy decrement at the end of an arbitrary cyclic driving of the model Hamiltonian. When applied to…
Geometric phase through spatial potential engineering
Stefano Cusumano, Antonella De Pasquale, Vittorio Giovannetti
We propose a spatial analog of the Berry's phase mechanism for the coherent manipulation of states of non-relativistic massive particles moving in a two-dimensional landscape. In o…
Quantum flags, and new bounds on the quantum capacity of the depolarizing channel
Marco Fanizza, Farzad Kianvash, Vittorio Giovannetti
A new bound for the quantum capacity of the -dimensional depolarizing channels is presented. Our derivation makes use of a flagged extension of the map where the receiver obtain…
Exclusive Hong-Ou-Mandel zero-coincidence point
Yu Yang, Luping Xu, Vittorio Giovannetti
A generalized multi-parameter Hong-Ou-Mandel interferometer is presented which extends the conventional "Mandel dip" configuration to the case where a symmetric biphoton source is…
Quantum bath statistics tagging
Donato Farina, Vasco Cavina, Vittorio Giovannetti
The possibility of discriminating the statistics of a thermal bath using indirect measurements performed on quantum probes is presented. The scheme relies on the fact that, when we…
Stretching potential engineering
Stefano Cusumano, Antonella De Pasquale, Giuseppe Carlo La Rocca +1
As the possibility to decouple temporal and spatial variations of the electromagnetic field, leading to a wavelength stretching, has been recognized to be of paramount importance f…
