چکیده

When a quantum system interacts with an external environment, it undergoes the loss of quantum correlation (decoherence) and the loss of energy (relaxation) and eventually all of the quantum information becomes classical. Here we show a general principle to use unitary operations to establish and preserve particular non-equilibrium states in arbitrary relaxing quantum systems. We elucidate these concepts with examples of state preservation in one-spin and two-spin entangled systems.

Distilling Gaussian states with Gaussian operations is impossible.

We show that no distillation protocol for Gaussian quantum states exists that relies on (i) arbitrary local unitary operations that preserve the Gaussian character of the state and (ii) homodyne detection together with classical communication and postprocessing by means of local Gaussian unitary operations on two symmetric identically prepared copies. This is in contrast to the finite-dimension...

Implementation of Single-Qutrit Quantum Gates via Tripod Adiabatic Passage

We proposed and analyzed implementation of the single-qutrit quantum gates based on stimulated Raman adiabatic passage (STIRAP) between magnetic sublevels in atoms coupled by pulsed laser fields. This technique requires only the control of the relative phase of the driving fields but do not involve any dynamical or geometrical phases, which make it independent of the other interaction details: ...

Linear-Optical Implementation of Perfect Discrimination between Single-bit Unitary Operations

For quantum computing and quantum information processing, one important task is the discrimination of quantum states and unitary operations. This is strongly related to quantum nonorthogonality, which is one of the basic features of quantum mechanics. Since the pioneering work of Helstrom [1] on quantum hypothesis testing, the problem of discriminating nonorthogonal quantum states has attracted...

بررسی تعادل نش با افزایش پارامترهای سیستم سه ذره‎ای در بازی کوانتومی

 Using the quantum game formalism in 3-player system, we calculate the Nash equilibrium in quantum Prisoners’ Dilemma by increasing parameters of unitary operator. Since, the entanglement plays an important role in quantum states of particles quantum game, actually its effect on the obtained results of Nash equilibrium is investigated. It is shown that increasing the parameters enhances the gam...

Delocalization power of global unitary operations on quantum information

We investigate how two pieces of localized quantum information represented by a tensor product of two unknown qudit states are delocalized by performing two-qudit global unitary operations. To characterize the delocalization power of global unitary operations on quantum information, we analyze the necessary and sufficient condition to deterministically relocalize one of the two pieces of quantu...
