Reconciling nonlinear dissipation with the bilinear model of two Brownian particles
Elisa I. Goettems, Ricardo J. S. Afonso, Diogo O. Soares-Pinto +1
The Brownian motion of a single particle is a paradigmatic model of the nonequilibrium dynamics of dissipative systems. In the system-plus-reservoir approach, one can derive the pa…
Emergence of energy-avoiding and energy-seeking behaviours in nonequilibrium dissipative quantum systems
Thiago Werlang, Maurício Matos, Frederico Brito +1
A longstanding challenge in nonequilibrium thermodynamics is to predict the emergence of self-organized behaviours and functionalities typical of living matter. Despite the progres…
Quantum dissipative adaptation
Daniel Valente, Frederico Brito, Thiago Werlang
Dissipative adaptation is a general thermodynamic mechanism that explains self-organization in a broad class of driven classical many-body systems. It establishes how the most like…
Self-replication of a quantum artificial organism driven by single-photon pulses
Daniel Valente
Artificial organisms are computer programs that self-replicate, mutate, compete and evolve. How do these lifelike information-processing behaviours could arise in diverse far-from-…
Asymmetric environment induces protein-like relaxation in spin chain
Daniel Valente, Thiago Werlang
Proteins are aminoacid chains that diffusively fold or unfold depending on the thermal and chemical environmental conditions. While sophisticated models account for detailed aspect…
Dynamic Stark shift induced by a single photon packet
D. Valente, F. Brito, T. Werlang
The dynamic Stark shift results from the interaction of an atom with the electromagnetic field. We show how a propagating single-photon wave packet can induce a time-dependent dyna…
Anti-Dynamical Casimir Effect as a Resource for Work Extraction
A. V. Dodonov, D. Valente, T. Werlang
We consider the quantum Rabi model with external time modulation of the atomic frequency, which can be employed to create excitations from the vacuum state of the electromagnetic f…
Non-Markovianity induced by a single-photon packet in a one-dimensional waveguide
M. F. Z. Arruda, D. Valente, T. Werlang
The concept of non-Markovianity (NM) in quantum dynamics is still an open debate. Understanding how to generate and measure NM in specific models may aid in this quest. In quantum…
A Fabry-Perot interferometer with quantum mirrors: nonlinear light transport and rectification
F. Fratini, E. Mascarenhas, L. Safari +5
Optical transport represents a natural route towards fast communications, and it is currently used in large scale data transfer. The progressive miniaturization of devices for info…
Energy transport between two pure-dephasing reservoirs
T. Werlang, D. Valente
A pure-dephasing reservoir acting on an individual quantum system induces loss of coherence without energy exchange. When acting on composite quantum systems, dephasing reservoirs…
Optimal rectification by strongly coupled spins
T. Werlang, M. A. Marchiori, M. F. Cornelio +1
We study heat transport in a pair of strongly coupled spins. In particular, we present a condition for optimal rectification, i.e., flow of heat in one direction and complete isola…
Frequency cavity pulling induced by a single semiconductor quantum dot
Daniel Valente, Jan Suffczyński, Tomasz Jakubczyk +7
We investigate the emission properties of a single semiconductor quantum dot deterministically coupled to a confined optical mode in the weak coupling regime. A strong pulling, bro…
A quantum optical valve in a nonlinear-linear resonator junction
Eduardo Mascarenhas, Daniel Valente, Simone Montangero +3
Electronic diodes, which enable the rectification of an electrical energy flux, have played a crucial role in the development of current microelectronics after the invention of sem…
Universal optimal broadband photon cloning and entanglement creation in one dimensional atoms
D. Valente, Y. Li, J. P. Poizat +4
We study an initially inverted three-level atom in the lambda configuration embedded in a waveguide, interacting with a propagating single-photon pulse. Depending on the temporal s…
Optimal irreversible stimulated emission
D Valente, Y Li, J P Poizat +4
We studied the dynamics of an initially inverted atom in a semi-infinite waveguide, in the presence of a single propagating photon. We show that atomic relaxation is enhanced by a…
