Beyond Pure Dephasing: Quantum Error Correction in Single Molecules Requires Multiple Spins

Matteo Mezzadri, Silvia Macedonio, Luca Lepori +6

We propose multi-spin molecules as a viable architecture for fault-tolerant quantum computing. To this aim, we introduce a correction protocol handling both diagonal and off-diagon…

Energetics in daemonic work extraction protocols via non-ideal QND-energy measurement

Daniele Morrone, Francesco Albarelli, Vittorio Giovannetti +2

We address the problem of extracting work from a quantum system assisted by a quantum non-demolition (QND) energy measurement. When a perfect QND measurement can be performed and a…

Quantifying complexity of continuous-variable quantum states via Wehrl entropy and Fisher information

Siting Tang, Francesco Albarelli, Yue Zhang +2

The notion of complexity of quantum states is quite different from uncertainty or information contents, and involves the tradeoff between its classical and quantum features. In thi…
