Small changes including title | null | 10.1103/PhysRevLett.83.5158 | null | quant-ph | null | We show how the state of an atom trapped in a cavity can be teleported to a
second atom trapped in a distant cavity simply by detecting photon decays from

constructive role in quantum information processing. The scheme is
comparatively easy to implement, requiring only the ability to trap a single
three level atom in a cavity.

on the spin. In our protocol, Alice, first generates a "code" by performing
weak measurements on a sample of N spins.
The sample is sent to Bob, who later performs a post-selection by measuring
the spin along either of two certain directions. The results of the
post-selection define the "key', which he then broadcasts publicly. Using both
her previously generated code and this key, Alice is able to infer the {\em
direction} chosen by Bob in the post-selection. Alternatively, if Alice
broadcasts publicly her code, Bob is able to infer from the code and the key
the direction chosen by Alice for her weak measurement. Two possible
experimental realizations of the protocols are briefly mentioned.

cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED), single Cesium atoms have been trapped

A262 (1999) 110-120 | 10.1016/S0375-9601(99)00565-4 | null | quant-ph gr-qc | null | A very interesting quantum mechanical effect is the emergence of
gravity-induced interference, which has already been detected. This effect also
shows us that gravity is at the quantum level not a purely geometric effect,
the mass of the employed particles appears explicitly in the interference
expression. In this work we will generalize some previous results. It will be
shown that the introduction of a second order approximation in the propagator
of a particle, immersed in the Earth's gravitational field, and whose
coordinates are being continuously monitored, allows us to include, in the
corresponding complex oscillator, a frequency which now depends on the geometry
of the source of the gravitational field, a fact that is absent in the case of
a homogeneous field. Using this propagator we will analyze the interference
pattern of two particle beams whose coordinates are being continuously
monitored. We will compare our results againt the case of a homogeneous field,
and also against the measurement ouputs of the Colella, Overhauser, and Werner
experiment, and find that the difference in the dependence upon the geometry of
the source of the gravitational field could render detectable differences in
their respective measurement outputs.

sequences are determined by a topological rule involving the Stokes lines
attached to the branch points. Our hypothesis is supported by theoretical

introduces new ones, references added, DREV website: http://www.drev.dnd.ca/ | null | null | null | quant-ph cond-mat.stat-mech | null | An interpretation of quantum mechanics is proposed which augments the
stochastic pilot-wave model, introduced by Nelson [E. Nelson, Phys. Rev., 150,
1079 (1966)], with a dual guidance condition. Namely, in addition to the
stochastic guidance condition which describes how the wave controls the
particle (wave-to-particle guidance condition), we introduce another stochastic
guidance condition describing how the particle guides the wave
(particle-to-wave guidance condition). We therefore introduce an
action-reaction principle in the pilot-wave formulation of quantum mechanics.
The particle-to-wave guidance condition takes the form of spontaneous
transitions of the wavefunction that are Poisson distributed in time. The
wavefunction selected by the transition is influenced by its likelyhood with
respect to the particle position, as well as certain conservation constraints.
It is shown that the stochastic particle-to-wave guidance condition reproduces
certain aspects of the spontaneous localization model of Ghirardi, Rimini and
Weber [G. C. Ghirardi, A. Rimini and T. Weber, Phys. Rev. D, 34, 470 (1986)],
and of Milburn's intrinsic decoherence model [G. J. Milburn, Phys. Rev. A, 44,
5401 (1991)], while avoiding some of the difficulties associated with them. The
macroscopic limit of the dualist interpretation is analyzed for the case of a
free body. Possible improvements of this interpretation are discussed.

the use of a coherent control field. We demonstrate this enhancement of the
magneto-optical rotation (MOR) of a linearly polarized light, by doing detailed
calculations on a system with relevant transitions $j=0\leftrightarrow

that genuine photon spin singlets are emitted in predetermined directions even
when incident photons are unpolarized, has been used in a proposal for an
experiment that imposes quantum spin correlation on truly independent photons.
In the experiment, two photons from two such singlets interfere at a beam
splitter, and as a result the other two photons - which nowhere interacted and
whose paths nowhere crossed - exhibit a 100% correlation in polarization, even
when no polarization has been measured in the first two photons. The propsed
experiment permits closure of the remaining loopholes in the Bell theorem proof
and reveals the quantum nonlocality as a property of selection, and pioneers an
experimental procedure for exact preparation of unequal superposition.

Tunneling | 4 pages text, 1 figure. Submitted for publication | null | 10.1016/S0375-9601(99)00630-1 | null | quant-ph | null | We revisit the problem of laser-induced suppression of quantum dynamical
tunneling in a model system studied by Kilin et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 76 (1996)
3297]. This quantum system consists of a ground state symmetric double-well
potential which is coupled by a strong laser field to an excited state
asymmetric double-well potential. By analyzing the assumptions used in their
analysis we show that the suppression of quantum dynamical tunneling can be
explained with the use of dark and bright states of the system. We also
generalize the system and the conditions for suppression of quantum tunneling
and show that, in certain cases, suppression can occur regardless the
characteristics of the excited potential surface.

has recently been the object of considerable study. It is shown here that this
problem can be put into a field theoretical framework by the construction of an
appropriate Galilean covariant theory. The Lee model with a standard Yukawa
interaction is shown to provide such a realization. The usual results for delta
function scattering are then obtained in the case that a stable particle exists
in the scattering channel provided that a certain limit is taken in the
relevant parameter space. In the more general case in which no such limit is
taken finite corrections to the cross section are obtained which (unlike the
pure delta function case) depend on the coupling constant of the model.

environment plays a crucial role in producing the correct classical limit in
the Bohm interpretation of quantum mechanics is investigated, in the context of
a model of quantum Brownian motion. It is well known that one of the effects of
the interaction is to produce an extremely rapid approximate diagonalisation of
the reduced density matrix in the position representation. This effect is, by
itself, insufficient to produce generically quasi-classical behaviour of the
Bohmian trajectory. However, it is shown that, if the system particle is
initially in an approximate energy eigenstate, then there is a tendency for the
Bohmian trajectory to become approximately classical on a rather longer
time-scale. The relationship between this phenomenon and the behaviour of the
Wigner function post-decoherence (as analysed by Halliwell and Zoupas) is
discussed. It is also suggested that the phenomenon may be related to the
storage of information about the trajectory in the environment, and that it may
therefore be a general feature of every situation in which such environmental
monitoring occurs.

a loophole in the standard no-go arguments against non-contextual hidden

quantum-mechanical observables with measurement outcomes that cannot be
simulated non-contextually. As a consequence, these arguments do not exclude
the hypothesis that the class of physical measurements in fact corresponds to a
dense subset of all theoretically possible measurements with outcomes and
quantum probabilities that \emph{can} be recovered from a non-contextual hidden
variable model. We show here by explicit construction that there are indeed
such non-contextual hidden variable models, both for projection valued and
positive operator valued measurements.

causality with the principles of quantum mechanics, overcoming the obstacles
given by Bell's inequalities.

existence of a self-adjoint time operator canonically conjugate to a given
Hamiltonian signifies that the time operator and the Hamiltonian possess
completely continuous spectra spanning the entire real line. Thus the
conclusion that there exists no self-adjoint time operator conjugate to a
semibounded or discrete Hamiltonian despite some well-known illustrative
counterexamples. In this paper we evaluate Pauli's theorem against the single
Hilbert space formulation of quantum mechanics, and consequently show the
consistency of assuming a bounded, self-adjoint time operator canonically
conjugate to a Hamiltonian with an unbounded, or semibounded, or finite point
spectrum. We point out Pauli's implicit assumptions and show that they are not
consistent in a single Hilbert space. We demonstrate our analysis by giving two
explicit examples. Moreover, we clarify issues sorrounding the different
solutions to the canonical commutation relations, and, consequently, expand the
class of acceptable canonical pairs beyond the solutions required by Pauli's
theorem.

maximally entangled states is considered. A detailed analysis shows that the
incompatibility of the Hardy equations for this class of states physically
originates from the fact that the existence of quantum perfect correlations for
the three pairs of two-valued observables (D_11,D_21), (D_11,D_22) and
(D_12,D_21) [in the sense of having with certainty equal (different) readings
for a joint measurement of any one of the pairs (D_11,D_21), (D_11,D_22), and
(D_12,D_21)], necessarily entails perfect correlation for the pair of
observables (D_12,D_22) [in the sense of having with certainty equal
(different) readings for a joint measurement of the pair (D_12,D_22)]. Indeed,
the set of these four perfect correlations is found to satisfy the CHSH
inequality, and then no violations of local realism will arise for the
maximally entangled state as far as the four observables D_ij, i,j = 1,2, are
concerned. The connection between this fact and the impossibility for the
quantum mechanical predictions to give the maximum possible theoretical
violation of the CHSH inequality is pointed out. Moreover, it is generally
proved that the fulfillment of all the Hardy nonlocality conditions necessarily
entails a violation of the resulting CHSH inequality. The largest violation of
this latter inequality is determined.

additional content and references | null | 10.1038/35023282 | null | quant-ph | null | Computers are physical systems: what they can and cannot do is dictated by
the laws of physics. In particular, the speed with which a physical device can
process information is limited by its energy and the amount of information that
it can process is limited by the number of degrees of freedom it possesses.
This paper explores the physical limits of computation as determined by the
speed of light $c$, the quantum scale $\hbar$ and the gravitational constant
$G$. As an example, quantitative bounds are put to the computational power of
an `ultimate laptop' with a mass of one kilogram confined to a volume of one
liter.

the parameter varies. We derive a semiclassical expression for the density of
crossings in the plane energy-parameter, that is the number of crossings per
unit of energy and unit of parameter, in terms of classical periodic orbits. We
compare the results of the semiclassical formula with exact quantum

minimum number of (pure) product states needed in convex combination to
construct A. We study the set of all separable states with optimal (pure state)
ensemble length equal to k or fewer. Lower bounds on k are found below which
these sets have measure 0 in the set of separable states. In the bipartite case
and the multiparticle case where one of the particles has significantly more
quantum numbers than the rest, the lower bound for non-pure state ensembles is
sharp. A consequence of our results is that for all two particle systems,
except possibly those with a qubit or those with a nine dimensional Hilbert
space, and for all systems with more than two particles the optimal pure state
ensemble length for a randomly picked separable state is with probability 1
greater than the state's rank. In bipartite systems with probability 1 it is
greater than 1/4 the rank raised to the 3/2 power and in a system with p qubits
with probability 1 it is greater than (2^2p)/(1+2p), which is almost the square
of the rank.

unstable system does not affect its exponential decay, $\exp (-\Gamma t)$,
contrary to expectations based on the Quantum Zeno effect . However, the width
of the energy distribution of the tunneling electron is no more $\Gamma$, but
increases due to the decoherence, generated by the detector.

superfluid due to Bose-Einstein condensation inside a nonlinear Fabry-Perot
cavity filled with atoms in their ground states. A "photon fluid" forms inside
the cavity as a result of multiple photon-photon collisions mediated by the
atoms during a cavity ring-down time. The effective mass and chemical potential
for a photon inside this fluid are nonvanishing. This implies the existence of
a Bogoliubov dispersion relation for the low-lying elementary excitations of
the photon fluid, and in particular, that sound waves exist for
long-wavelength, low-frequency disturbances of this fluid. Possible experiments
to test for the superfluidity of the photon fluid based on the Landau
critical-velocity criterion will be discussed.

particular case of a one mode CCR-algebra we show that the transition
probability between two quasifree squeezed states is a decreasing function of
the geodesic distance between the points of the upper half plane representing
these states. In the special case of the purification map it is shown that the
transition probability between the state of the enlarged system and the product

that the second decay (or accompanying photon radiation) may be considered as a
sign of the transition 2 -> 1 so that during the first transition the system is

constructed under the assumption of spatially symmetric system-bath coupling.
Here we show that decoherence-free subspaces may appear without spatial
symmetry. Instead, we consider a model of system-bath interactions in which to
first order only multiple-qubit coupling to the bath is present, with
single-qubit system-bath coupling absent. We derive necessary and sufficient
conditions for the appearance of decoherence-free states in this model, and
give a number of examples. In a sequel paper we show how to perform universal

principle of entanglement theory saying that entanglement cannot increase under
local operations and classical communication.

noise. When using qubits, a measure of quality of a code is the maximum number
of errors that it is able to correct. We show that a suitable notion of
``number of errors'' e makes sense for any system in the presence of arbitrary
environmental interactions. In fact, the notion is directly related to the
lowest order in time with which uncorrectable errors are introduced, and this
in turn is derived from a grading of the algebra generated by the interaction
operators. As a result, e-error-correcting codes are effective at protecting
quantum information without requiring the usual assumptions of independence and
lack of correlation. We prove the existence of large codes for both quantum and
classical information. By viewing error-correcting codes as subsystems, we
relate codes to irreducible representations of certain operator algebras and
show that noiseless subsystems are infinite-distance error-correcting codes. An
explicit example involving collective interactions is discussed.

that chaotic dynamics exists for classic dynamics, when the intensity of the

annular regions when the system enters a regime of global chaos. Our simulation
shows that, when the atomic flux is very small, a similar distribution will be
obtained if we detect the atomic distribution once each the modualtion period
and integrate the signals.
For quantum dynamics, quantum collapses and revivals appear . For
periodically modulated optical potential, the variance of atomic position will
be supressed compared to the no modulation case. The atomic angular momentum
will influnce the evolution of wave function in two dimensional quantum system

high dimensions and multipartite systems. We present a sufficient condition for
sets of orthogonal product states to be distinguishable by separable

formation assisted by bound entanglement.

(m) -partite quantum systems, we study exactly and asymptotically (in n)
reversible transformations among n'th tensor powers of such states (ie n copies
of the state shared among the same m parties) under local quantum operations
and classical communication (LOCC). With regard to exact transformations, we
show that two states whose 1-party entropies agree are either locally-unitarily
(LU) equivalent or else LOCC-incomparable. In particular we show that two
tripartite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states are LOCC-incomparable to
three bipartite Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) states symmetrically shared among
the three parties. Asymptotic transformations result in a simpler
classification than exact transformations. We show that m-partite pure states
having an m-way Schmidt decomposition are simply parameterizable, with the
partial entropy across any nontrivial partition representing the number of
standard ``Cat'' states (|0^m>+|1^m>) asymptotically interconvertible to the
state in question. For general m-partite states, partial entropies across
different partitions need not be equal, and since partial entropies are
conserved by asymptotically reversible LOCC operations, a multicomponent
entanglement measure is needed, with each scalar component representing a
different kind of entanglement, not asymptotically interconvertible to the
other kinds. In particular the m=4 Cat state is not isentropic to, and
therefore not asymptotically interconvertible to, any combination of bipartite
and tripartite states shared among the four parties. Thus, although the m=4 cat
state can be prepared from bipartite EPR states, the preparation process is
necessarily irreversible, and remains so even asymptotically.

perform, in repeating a fixed unitary transformation on the total system, an
arbitrary unitary transformation on an arbitrary data state, by including a
program as another part of the input state. We note that if such a UQTM really
exists, with the program state dependent on the data state, and if the
prescribed halting scheme is indeed valid, then there would be no entanglement
between the halt qubit and other qubits, as pointed out by Myers. If, however,
the program is required to be independent of the data, the concerned
entanglement appears, and is problematic no matter whether the halt qubit is
monitored or not. We also note that for a deterministic programmable quantum
gate array, as discussed by Nielson and Chuang, if the program is allowed to
depend on the data state, then its existence has not been ruled out. On the
other hand, if UQTM exists, it can be simulated by repeating the operation of a
fixed gate array. However, more importantly, we observe that it is actually
still open whether Deutsch's UQTM exists and whether a crucial concatenation
scheme, of which the halting scheme is a special case, is valid.

related to the following general setting: For a given system there is a set of
experiments that can be performed, and for each such experiment an ordinary
statistical model is defined. The parameters of the single experiments are
functions of a hyperparameter, which defines the state of the system. There is
a symmetry group acting on the hyperparameters, and for the induced action on
the parameters of the single experiment a simple consistency property is
assumed, called permissibility of the parametric function. The other
assumptions needed are rather weak. The derivation relies partly on quantum
logic, partly on a group representation of the hyperparameter group, where the
invariant spaces are shown to be in 1-1 correspondence with the equivalence
classes of permissible parametric functions. Planck's constant only plays a
role connected to generators of unitary group representations.

statistical experiments on the one hand and the foundation of quantum theory on
the other hand. The main aspects of this extension are: One assumes a
hyperparameter space $\Phi$ common to several potential experiments, and a
basic symmetry group G associated with this space. The parameter \theta_{a} of
a single experiment, looked upon as a parametric function $\theta_{a}(\cdot)$
on $\Phi$, is said to be permissible if G induces in a natural way a new group
on the image space of the function. If this is not the case, it is arranged for
by changing from G to a subgroup $G_{a}$. The Haar measure of this subgroup
(confined to the spectrum; see below) is the prefered prior when the parameter
is unknown. It is assumed that the hyperparameter itself can never be
estimated, only a set of parametric functions. Model reduction is made by
restricting the space of complex `wave' functions, also regarded as functions
on $\Phi$, to an irreducible invariant subspace $\mathcal{M}$ under G. The
spectrum of a parametric function is defined from natural group-theoretical and
statistical considerations. We establish that a unique operator can be
associated with every parametric functions $\theta_{a}(\cdot)$, and essentially
all of the ordinary quantum theory formalism can be retrieved from these and a
few related assumptions. In particular the concept of spectrum is consistent.
The scope of the theory is illustrated on the one hand by the example of a spin
1/2 particle and a related EPR discussion, on the other hand by a simple
macroscopic example.

of view that distinguishes between the observable consequences and the
``symmetrization postulate''. In particular, we make a critical analysis of
concepts of particle identity, state distinguishability and permutation, and
particle ``labels''. We discuss how to construct unique state vectors and the
nature of the full state descriptions required for this -- in particular the
elimination of arbitrary $2\pi$ rotations on fermion spin quantization frames
and argue that the failure to do this renders the conventional symmetrization
postulate (and previous ``proofs'' of it) at best {\em incomplete}.
We discuss particle permutation in a general way for any pairs of particles,
whether identical or not, and make an essential distinction between exchange
and pure permutation. We prove a revised symmetrization postulate that allows
us to construct state vectors that are naturally symmetric under pure
permutation, {\em for any spin}. The significance of particle labels (which, in
the exchange operation, are not permuted along with other variables) is then
that they stand in for any asymmetry (order dependence) that is present in the
full state descriptions necessary for unique state vectors but not explicit in
the regular state variables. {\em The exchange operation is then the physical
transformation that reverses any asymmetry implicit in the labels}.
We point out a previously unremarked geometrical asymmetry between all pairs
of particles that is present whenever we choose a common frame of reference. We
compute the exchange phase for various state vectors using different spin
quantization frames, and prove the Pauli Exclusion Principle and its
generalization to arbitrary spin.

elementary systems. Already the quantization of a particle on a circle shows
that the standard procedure has to be supplemented by an additional condition
on the admissibility of group actions. A systematic strategy for finding
admissible group actions for particular subbundles of cotangent spaces is
developed, two-dimensional prototypes of which are T^*R^+ and S^1 x R^+
(interpreted as restrictions of T^*R and T^*S^1 to positive coordinate and
momentum, respectively). In this framework (and under an additional, natural
condition) an SO_+(1,2)-action on S^1 x R^+ results as the unique admissible
group action.
For symplectic manifolds which are (specific) parts of phase spaces with
known quantum theory a simple projection method of quantization is formulated.
For T^*R^+ and S^1 x R^+ equivalent results to those of more established (but
more involved) quantization schemes are obtained. The approach may be of
interest, e.g., in attempts to quantize gravity theories where demanding
nondegenerate metrics of a fixed signature imposes similar constraints.

fastest known classical deterministic algorithms and a quadratic speed increase
in comparison to classical Monte Carlo (probabilistic) methods. We derive a
simpler and slightly faster version of Grover's mean algorithm, demonstrate how
to apply quantum counting to the problem, develop some variations of these
algorithms, and show how both (apparently quite different) approaches can be
understood from the same unified framework. Finally, we discuss how the
exponential speed increase appears to (but does not) violate results obtained
via the method of polynomials, from which it is known that a bounded-error
quantum algorithm for computing a total function can be only polynomially more
efficient than the fastest deterministic classical algorithm.

14 pages, Latex | Found.Phys.Lett. 13 (2000) 221-233 | null | null | quant-ph gr-qc | null | Epistemological consequences of quantum nonlocality (entanglement) are
discussed under the assumption of a universally valid Schr\"odinger equation in
the absence of hidden variables. This leads inevitably to a {\it many-minds
interpretation}. The recent foundation of quasi-classical neural states in the
brain (based on environmental decoherence) permits in principle a formal
description of the whole chain of measurement interactions, including the {\it
behavior} of conscious observers, without introducing any intermediate
classical concepts (for macroscopic "pointer states") or "observables" (for
microscopic particle positions and the like) --- thus consistently formalizing
Einstein's {\it ganzer langer Weg} from the observed to the observer in quantum
mechanical terms.

runs through the set of Gaussian classical states. The maximum value of the
fidelity between these two states can be used as a nonclassical distance of the
fixed state to the set of classical states, in the same extent as the Hillery
measure. This measure increases when on the fixed state acts a Gaussian noise
map i.e. the selected state becomes closer to the classical states.

pseudo quantum number. The 3-dimensional q-deformed harmonic oscillator
correctly predicts all experimentally observed magic numbers up to 1500 (which
is the expected limit of validity for theories based on the filling of
electronic shells), thus indicating that Uq(3), which is a nonlinear extension
of the U(3) symmetry of the spherical (3-dimensional isotropic) harmonic
oscillator, is a good candidate for being the symmetry of systems of alkali

quantum apparatus (harmonic oscillator) which in turn is coupled to a bath of
harmonic oscillators. Exact solutions of the Markovian Master equation show
that the reduced density matrix of the system-apparatus combine decoheres to a
statistical mixture where up and down spins eventually correlate with pointer
states of the apparatus. For the zero temperature bath these pointer states
turn out to be coherent states of the harmonic oscillator for arbitrary initial
states of the apparatus. For a high temperature bath pointer states are
Gaussian distributions (generalized coherent states). For both cases, the
off-diagonal elements in spin-space decohere over a time scale which goes
inversely as the square of the "separation" between the "pointers". Our exact
results also demonstrate in an unambiguous way that the pointer states in this
measurement model emerge independent of the initial state of the apparatus.

enough precision to determine the character being sent. Losses degrade the
performance of this scheme, but it is possible to use phase-sensitive
amplifiers to boost the signal and partially compensate for their effect.

Several small corrections made | null | 10.1103/PhysRevA.61.020301 | null | quant-ph | null | Typical quantum computing schemes require transformations (gates) to be
targeted at specific elements (qubits). In many physical systems, direct
targeting is difficult to achieve; an alternative is to encode local gates into
globally applied transformations. Here we demonstrate the minimum physical
requirements for such an approach: a one-dimensional array composed of two
alternating 'types' of two-state system. Each system need be sensitive only to
the net state of its nearest neighbors, i.e. the number in state 1 minus the
number in state 2. Additionally, we show that all such arrays can perform quite
general parallel operations. A broad range of physical systems and interactions
are suitable: we highlight two potential implementations.

time. In reality however, the switching-on of the measuring device at the
instance of the measurement requires a timing device. Hence the classical time
$t$ must be replaced by a suitable quantum time variable $\tau$ of a physical
clock. The main issue raised in this article is that while doing so, we can no
longer neglect the {\em back-reaction} due to the measurement on the clock.
This back-reaction yields a bound on the accuracy of the measurement. When this
bound is violated the result of a measurement is generally not an eigenvalue of
the observable, and furthermore, the state of the system after the measurement
is generally not a pure state. We argue that as a consequence, a sub-class of
observables in a closed system cannot be realized by a measurement.
