It is proposed that self-organisation (SO) in non-equilibrium systems is governed by a general principle: it emerges when a minute subset of system configurations are exceptionally stable and long-lived to survive the noise generated by the…
The quantum theory of the electromagnetic field enables the description of multiphoton states exhibiting nonclassical statistical properties, often reflected in non-Gaussian phase-space distributions. While non-Gaussianity alone does not…
This document presents the statistical methods used to process low-level measurements in the presence of noise. These methods can be classical or Bayesian. The question is placed in the general framework of the problem of nuisance…
Modeling higher-order interactions (HOI) has emerged as a crucial challenge in complex systems analysis, as many phenomena cannot be fully captured by pairwise relationships alone. Hypergraphs, which generalize graphs by allowing…
We consider macroscopic, mesoscopic and "S-scopic" quantum superpositions of eigenstates of an observable, and develop some signatures for their existence. We define the extent, or size $S$ of a superposition, with respect to an observable…
Boson sampling is a leading candidate for demonstrating quantum advantage in photonic systems. Despite significant experimental and theoretical progress, a characterization of its output statistics remains incomplete. This is especially…
We derive the supersqueeze operator for the supersymmetric harmonic oscillator, using Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff relations for the supergroup OSP(2/2). Combining this with the previously obtained superdisplacement operator, we derive the…
`Hypergeometric states', which are a one-parameter generalization of binomial states of the single-mode quantized radiation field, are introduced and their nonclassical properties are investigated. Their limits to the binomial states and to…
Strassen's Positivstellensatz is a powerful but little known theorem on preordered commutative semirings satisfying a boundedness condition similar to Archimedeanicity. It characterizes the relaxed preorder induced by all monotone…
This is a less technical presentation of the ideas in quant-ph/9804035 [Phys Rev Lett 83 (1999), 1707-1710]. A second order phase transition induced by a rapid quench can lock out topological defects with densities far exceeding their…
The Poisson distribution is the default choice of likelihood for probabilistic models of count data. However, due to the equidispersion contraint of the Poisson, such models may have predictive uncertainty that is artificially inflated.…
Quantum hypergraph states form a generalisation of the graph state formalism that goes beyond the pairwise (dyadic) interactions imposed by remaining inside the Gaussian approximation. Networks of such states are able to achieve…
Interaction of intense laser beam with an inversion symmetric third order nonlinear medium is modeled as a quartic anharmonic oscillator. A first order operator solution of the model Hamiltonian is used to study the possibilities of…
The generalized Thomas-Kuhn sum rules are used to eliminate the explicit dependence on dipolar terms in the traditional sum-over-states (SOS) expression for the second hyperpolarizability to derive a new, yet equivalent, SOS expression.…
Generalized superstatistics, i.e., a "statistics of superstatistics," is proposed. A generalized superstatistical system comprises a set of superstatistical subsystems and represents a generalized hyperensemble. There exists a random…
This paper describes how the structure of the state space of the quantum harmonic oscillator can be described by an adjunction of categories, that encodes the raising and lowering operators into a commutative comonoid. The formulation is an…
The nonclassicality of quantum states is a fundamental resource for quantum technologies and quantum information tasks in general. In particular, a pivotal aspect of quantum states lies in their coherence properties, encoded in the…
In quantum mechanics, the selfadjoint Hilbert space operators play a triple role as observables, generators of the dynamical groups and statistical operators defining the mixed states. One might expect that this is typical of Hilbert space…
Characterising non-classical quantum phenomena is crucial not only from a fundamental perspective, but also to better understand its capabilities for information processing and communication tasks. In this work, we focus on exploring the…
We show that a composite quantum system described by the tensor product of multiple systems each with a leading-order exceptional point (a non-Hermitian degeneracy at which not only eigenvalues but also eigenstates coalesce) exhibits a…
