Geometrical derivation of Wigner's angle for arbitrary Lorentz transformations of massless particles
Isabella Cerutti, Petra F. Scudo
This note summarizes the physics and mathematics of Lorentz transformations for massless particles, specifically for photons. We provide a complete analytical derivation of Wigner'…
Can optimal collective measurements outperform individual measurements for non-orthogonal QKD signals?
Isabella Cerutti, Petra F. Scudo
We consider how the theory of optimal quantum measurements determines the maximum information available to the receiving party of a quantum key distribution (QKD) system employing…
Quantum communications infrastructure architecture: theoretical background, network structure and technologies. A review of recent studies from a European public infrastructure perspective
Adam M. Lewis, Petra F. Scudo
Progress in the development of techniques for the construction of multiuser quantum communications networks is reviewed in light of the plans for an EU quantum communications infra…
Bounded entanglement entropy in the quantum Ising model
Geoffrey Grimmett, Tobias Osborne, Petra Scudo
A rigorous proof is presented of the boundedness of the entanglement entropy of a block of spins for the ground state of the one-dimensional quantum Ising model with sufficiently s…
Spectral converters and luminescent solar concentrators
Petra F. Scudo, Luigi Abbondanza, Roberto Fusco
In this paper we present a comprehensive theoretical description of molecular spectral converters in the specific context of Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSCs). The theoretical…
Entanglement in the quantum Ising model
Geoffrey Grimmett, Tobias Osborne, Petra Scudo
We study the asymptotic scaling of the entanglement of a block of spins for the ground state of the one-dimensional quantum Ising model with transverse field. When the field is suf…
