Consensus About Classical Reality in a Quantum Universe

Akram Touil, Bin Yan, Wojciech H. Zurek

Quantum Darwinism recognizes that decoherence imprints redundant records of preferred quasi-classical pointer states on the environment. These redundant records are then accessed b…

Biased dynamics of the miscible-immiscible quantum phase transition in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate

Francis A. Bayocboc, Jacek Dziarmaga, Wojciech H. Zurek

A quantum phase transition from the miscible to the immiscible phase of a quasi-one-dimensional binary Bose-Einstein condensate is driven by ramping down the coupling amplitude of…

Quantum Theory of the Classical: Einselection, Envariance, Quantum Darwinism and Extantons

Wojciech Hubert Zurek

Core quantum postulates including the superposition principle and the unitarity of evolutions are natural and strikingly simple. I show that -- when supplemented with a limited ver…

Redundantly amplified information suppresses quantum correlations in many-body systems

D. Girolami, A. Touil, B. Yan +2

We establish bounds on quantum correlations in many-body systems. They reveal what sort of information about a quantum system can be simultaneously recorded in different parts of i…

Coherent Many-Body Oscillations Induced by a Superposition of Broken Symmetry States in the Wake of a Quantum Phase Transition

Jacek Dziarmaga, Marek M. Rams, Wojciech H. Zurek

It is now widely accepted that quenches through the critical region of quantum phase transitions result in post-transition states populated with topological defects -- analogs of t…

Decoherence factor as a convolution: an interplay between a Gaussian and an exponential coherence loss

Bin Yan, Wojciech H. Zurek

This paper identifies and investigates nature of the transition between Gaussian and exponential forms of decoherence. We show that the decoherence factor (that controls the time d…
