A unified framework for anomalous boson bunching
Léo Pioge, Leonardo Novo, Nicolas J. Cerf
Anomalous bunching is a paradoxical quantum interferometric phenomenon in which partially distinguishable photons exhibit a higher probability of bunching into two or more modes th…

Limits of multimode bunching for boson sampling validation: anomalous bunching induced by time delays
Léo Pioge, Leonardo Novo, Nicolas J. Cerf
The multimode bunching probability is expected to provide a useful criterion for validating boson sampling experiments. Its applicability, however, is challenged by the existence o…

A logical implication between two conjectures on matrix permanents
Léo Pioge, Kamil K. Pietrasz, Benoit Seron +2
We prove a logical implication between two old conjectures stated by Bapat and Sunder about the permanent of positive semidefinite matrices. Although Drury has recently disproved b…
