Broken Symmetries in the Entanglement of Formation
F. Benatti, H. Narnhofer, A. Uhlmann
We compare some recent computations of the entanglement of formation in quantum information theory and of the entropy of a subalgebra in quantum ergodic theory. Both notions requir…
Planck's scale dissipative effects in atom interferometry
F. Benatti, R. Floreanini
Atom interferometers can be used to study phenomena leading to irreversibility and dissipation, induced by the dynamics of fundamental objects (strings and branes) at a large mass…
Complete positivity and dissipative factorized dynamics
F. Benatti, R. Floreanini, R. Romano
We show that any Hermiticity and trace preserving continuous semigroup gamma_t in d dimensions is completely positive if and only if the semigroup gamma_t otimes gamma_t is positiv…
Dissipation and decoherence in photon interferometry
F. Benatti, R. Floreanini
The propagation of polarized photons in optical media can be effectively modeled by means of quantum dynamical semigroups. These generalized time evolutions consistently describe p…
