Parity as the foundation of the non-relativistic spin-statistics connection
Dmitri V. Averin
It is shown that the symmetry under parity of the wavefunctions of two identical particles with an arbitrary spin in three spatial dimensions accounts for the appropriate wavef…
Supremacy of incoherent sudden cycles
Jukka P. Pekola, Bayan Karimi, George Thomas +1
We investigate theoretically a refrigerator based on a two-level system (TLS) coupled alternately to two different heat baths. Modulation of the coupling is achieved by tuning the…
Work and its fluctuations in a driven quantum system
Paolo Solinas, Dmitri V. Averin, Jukka P. Pekola
We analyze work done on a quantum system driven by a control field. The average work depends on the whole dynamics of the system, and is obtained as the integral of the average pow…
A model of deterministic detector with dynamical decoherence
Jae Weon Lee, Dmitri V. Averin, Giuliano Benenti +1
We discuss a deterministic model of detector coupled to a two-level system (a qubit). The detector is a quasi-classical object whose dynamics is described by the kicked rotator Ham…
Quantum computing and quantum measurement with mesoscopic Josephson junctions
D. V. Averin
Recent experimental demonstrations of quantum coherence of the charge and flux states of Josephson junctions show that the quantum Josephson dynamics can be used to develop scalabl…
Adiabatic quantum computation with Cooper pairs
D. V. Averin
We propose a new variant of the controlled-NOT quantum logic gate based on adiabatic level-crossing dynamics of the q-bits. The gate has a natural implementation in terms of the Co…
