چکیده

We discuss the problem of the separation of total correlations in a given quantum state into entanglement, dissonance, and classical correlations using the concept of relative entropy as a distance measure of correlations. This allows us to put all correlations on an equal footing. Entanglement and dissonance, whose definition is introduced here, jointly belong to what is known as quantum discord. Our methods are completely applicable for multipartite systems of arbitrary dimensions. We investigate additivity relations between different correlations and show that dissonance may be present in pure multipartite states.

بررسی خواص کوانتومی حالت‌های همدوس دو‌مدی درهم‌تنیده

Coherent states are the quantum states, which give the closest description to classical states. Since their superpositions show quantum properties, research on these states has been of great interest. In addition, having nonclassical properties is necessary for quantum correlations. In this paper, we focus on two-mode entangled coherent states which are  out of phase, and study the nonclassical...

Unified theory of ghost imaging with Gaussian-state light

The theory of ghost imaging is developed in a Gaussian-state framework that both encompasses prior work—on thermal-state and biphoton-state imagers—and provides a complete understanding of the boundary between classical and quantum behavior in such systems. The core of this analysis is the expression derived for the photocurrent-correlation image obtained using a general Gaussian-state source. ...

Constacyclic Codes over Group Ring (Zq[v])/G

Recently, codes over some special finite rings especially chain rings have been studied. More recently, codes over finite non-chain rings have been also considered. Study on codes over such rings or rings in general is motivated by the existence of some special maps called Gray maps whose images give codes over fields. Quantum error-correcting (QEC) codes play a crucial role in protecting quantum ...

When the classical & quantum mechanical considerations hint to a single point; a microscopic particle in a one dimensional box with two infinite walls and a linear potential inside it

In this paper we have solved analytically the Schrödinger equation for a microscopic particle in a one-dimensional box with two infinite walls, which the potential function inside it, has a linear form. Based on the solutions of this special quantum mechanical system, we have shown that as the quantum number approaches infinity the expectation values of microscopic particle position and square ...

Quantum correlations with no causal order

The idea that events obey a definite causal order is deeply rooted in our understanding of the world and at the basis of the very notion of time. But where does causal order come from, and is it a necessary property of nature? Here, we address these questions from the standpoint of quantum mechanics in a new framework for multipartite correlations that does not assume a pre-defined global causa...
