We survey some results that provide different versions of classical results through different summability methods. Specifically, in order to adapt such classical results, we analyze which properties should satisfy the summability methods.…
We study the Quantum Zeno Effect (QZE) induced by continuous partial measurement in the presence of short-correlated noise in the system Hamiltonian. We study the survival probability and the onset of the QZE as a function of the…
We discuss the effect of semitransparency in a quantum-Zeno-like interaction-free measurement setup, a quantum-physics based approach that might significantly reduce sample damage in imaging and microscopy. With an emphasis on applications…
Using an experimental work on "stopped light" as an example, we show how a classical phenomenon of linear optics - interference of polarized light - can imitate the effect of electromagnetically induced transparency.
We show how the quantum process of splitting light may be modelled in classical optics. A second result is the possibility to engineer specific forms of a classical field.
An unstable particle in quantum mechanics can be stabilized by frequent measurements, known as the quantum Zeno effect. A soliton with dissipation behaves like an unstable particle. Similar to the quantum Zeno effect, here we show that the…
A quantum system being observed evolves more slowly. This `'quantum Zeno effect'' is reviewed with respect to a previous attempt of demonstration, and to subsequent criticism of the significance of the findings. A recent experiment on an…
We present conditions for the efficient simulation of a broad class of optical quantum circuits on a classical machine: this class includes unitary transformations, amplification, noise, and measurements. Various proposed schemes for…
Building upon our previously introduced mechanism for ion trapping based on the quantum Zeno effect (QZE), we propose a novel approach to systematically draw ions closer together, solely via quantum measurements. The proposed method…
The accuracy of an atomic clock depends in part on the bandwidth of the relevant atomic transitions. Here we consider an ensemble of $N$ atoms whose transition frequencies have been independently perturbed by environmental effects or other…
In few-qubit systems, the quantum Zeno effect arises when measurement occurs sufficiently frequently that the spins are unable to relax between measurements. This can compete with Hamiltonian terms, resulting in interesting relaxation…
A quantum mechanical theory of the relationship between perceptions and brain dynamics based on von Neumann's theory of measurments is applied to a recent quantum theoretical treatment of binocular rivaly that makes essential use of the…
We describe Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) demonstrations of the quantum Zeno effect, and discuss briefly how these are related to similar phenomena in more conventional NMR experiments.
New formulas for approximation of zeta-constants were derived on the basis of a number-theoretic approach constructed for the irrationality proof of certain classical constants. Using these formulas it's possible to approximate certain…
It is well known that repeated projective measurements can either speed up (the Zeno effect) or slow down (the anti-Zeno effect) quantum evolution. Until now, however, studies of these effects for a two-level system interacting strongly…
The linear optics approach to quantum computing has several potential advantages but the logic operations are probabilistic. Here we review the use of the quantum Zeno effect to suppress the intrinsic failure events in these kinds of…
Experimental results stated in quant-ph/0612031 are seminal: The authors have realized nondemolition measurements of the photon number. As to the interpretation of the results, it seems to be less than convincing: The treatment of the…
We present the first detailed computations of wave optics effects in the gravitational lensing of binary systems. The field is conceptually rich, combining the caustic singularities produced in classical gravitational lensing with quantum…
We introduce a unified and simplified theory of atomic double ionization. Our results show that at high laser intensities ($I \ge 10^{14}$ watts/cm$^2$) purely classical correlation is strong enough to account for all of the main features…
The evolution of a quantum system undergoing very frequent measurements takes place in a subspace of the total Hilbert space (quantum Zeno effect). The dynamical properties of this evolution are investigated and several examples are…
