Exotic States in the Dynamical Casimir Effect

Giuliano Benenti, Stefano Siccardi, Giuliano Strini

We consider the interaction of a qubit with a single mode of the quantized electromagnetic field and show that, in the ultrastrong coupling regime and when the qubit-field interact…

Thermoelectric efficiency in momentum-conserving systems

Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati, Carlos Mejia-Monasterio

We show that for a two-dimensional gas of elastically interacting particles the thermoelectric efficiency reaches the Carnot efficiency in the thermodynamic limit. Numerical simula…

Fundamental aspects of steady state heat to work conversion

Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati, Tomaz Prosen +1

We review theoretical approaches to analyzing efficiency of steady state heat to work conversion which is crucial in the timely problem of optimizing efficiency of small-scale heat…

Translationally invariant conservation laws of local Lindblad equations

Marko Znidaric, Giuliano Benenti, Giulio Casati

We study the conditions under which one can conserve local translationally invariant operators by local translationally invariant Lindblad equations in one-dimensional rings of spi…

Complexity and instability of quantum motion near a quantum phase transition

Pinquan Qin, Wen-ge Wang, Giuliano Benenti +1

We show that the number of harmonics of the Wigner function, recently proposed as a measure of quantum complexity, can be also used to characterize quantum phase transitions. The n…

Classical and quantum capacities of a fully correlated amplitude damping channel

A. D'Arrigo, G. Benenti, G. Falci +1

We study information transmission over a fully correlated amplitude damping channel acting on two qubits. We derive the single-shot classical channel capacity and show that entangl…
