Process tensors are quantum combs describing the evolution of open quantum systems through multiple steps of a quantum dynamics. While there is more than one way to measure how different two processes are, special care must be taken to…

Given a positive function $f$ on $(0,\infty)$ and a non-zero real parameter $\theta$, we consider a function $I_f^\theta(A,B,X)=Tr X^*(f(L_AR_B^{-1})R_B)^\theta(X)$ in three matrices $A,B>0$ and $X$. In the literature $\theta=\pm1$ has been…

A direct classical analog of quantum decoherence is introduced. Similarities and differences between decoherence dynamics examined quantum mechanically and classically are exposed via a second-order perturbative treatment and via a strong…

Non-classical probability is the underlying feature of quantum mechanics. The emergence of Bell-CHSH non-locality for bipartite systems and linear entanglement inequalities for two-qubit systems has been shown in Adhikary et al. 2020 [Eur.…

A quantum walk is the quantum analogue of a random walk. While it is relatively well understood how quantum walks can speed up random walk hitting times, it is a long-standing open question to what extent quantum walks can speed up the…

A quantum mechanical wave of a finite size moves like a classical particle and shows a unique decay probability. Because the wave function evolves according to the Schr\"{o}dinger equation, it preserves the total energy but not the kinetic…
