On the role of Hermite-like polynomials in the Fock representations of Gaussian states
Gianfranco Cariolaro, Giuseppe Dattoli, Gianfranco Pierobon
The expansion of quantum states and operators in terms of Fock states plays a fundamental role in the field of continuous-variable quantum mechanics. In particular, for general sin…
From Hamiltonians to complex symplectic transformations
Gianfranco Cariolaro, Gianfranco Pierobon
Gaussian unitaries are specified by a second order polynomial in the bosonic operators, that is, by a quadratic polynomial and a linear term. From the Hamiltonian other equivalent…
On the Optimality of Square Root Measurements in Quantum State Discrimination
Nicola Dalla Pozza, Gianfranco Pierobon
Distinguishing assigned quantum states with assigned probabilities via quantum measurements is a crucial problem for the transmission of classical information through quantum chann…
Gaussian states and geometrically uniform symmetry
Gianfranco Cariolaro, Roberto Corvaja, Gianfranco Pierobon
Quantum Gaussian states can be considered as the majority of the practical quantum states used in quantum communications and more generally in quantum information. Here we consider…
Revisiting the Dolinar Receiver through Multiple-Copy State Discrimination Theory
Antonio Assalini, Nicola Dalla Pozza, Gianfranco Pierobon
We consider the problem of discriminating between two quantum coherent states by interpreting a single state like being a collection of several successive copies of weaker coherent…
Efficient Optimal Minimum Error Discrimination of Symmetric Quantum States
Antonio Assalini, Gianfranco Cariolaro, Gianfranco Pierobon
This paper deals with the quantum optimal discrimination among mixed quantum states enjoying geometrical uniform symmetry with respect to a reference density operator . It is…
Theory of Quantum Pulse Position Modulation and Related Numerical Problems
G. Cariolaro, G. Pierobon
The paper deals with quantum pulse position modulation (PPM), both in the absence (pure states) and in the presence (mixed states) of thermal noise, using the Glauber representatio…
Performance of quantum data transmission systems in the presence of thermal noise
G. Cariolaro, G. Pierobon
In the literature the performance of quantum data transmission systems is usually evaluated in the absence of thermal noise. A more realistic approach taking into account the therm…
