A formalism is developed for describing approximate classical behaviour in finite (but possibly large) quantum systems. This is done in terms of a structure common to classical and quantum mechanics, viz. a Poisson space with a transition…
We develop a recently introduced representation of quantum dynamics based on sampling negative Markov chain processes. By introducing particles and antiparticles, this formalism maps generic quantum dynamics onto a Markov process defined…
The mechanism of the transition of a dynamical system from quantum to classical mechanics is of continuing interest. Practically it is of importance for the interpretation of multi-particle coincidence measurements performed at macroscopic…
We Have developed the concept of a new kind of single-electron transistor in which the transport of the electron through a quantum wire is controlled by charged quantum rings. Using a 2D harmonic potential as the transverse constraint, we…
We study the dynamics of the classical and quantum mechanical scattering of a wave packet from an oscillating barrier. Our main focus is on the dependence of the transmission coefficient on the initial energy of the wave packet for a wide…
For relativistic energies the small angle classical cross section for scattering on a Coulomb potential agrees with the first Born approximation for quantum cross section for scalar particle only in the leading term. The disagreement in…
A new approach in the quantum theory of few-electron nanoelectronic devices -- the S-matrix approach -- is presented in a simple example: a single-electron transistor consisting of a single-level quantum dot connected with two metallic…
We present and discuss a formal approach for describing the quantum to classical crossover based on the group-theoretic construction of generalized coherent states. The method was originally introduced by L. Yaffe in 1982 for tackling…
Simulating the molecular dynamics (MD) using classical or semi-classical trajectories provides important details for the understanding of many chemical reactions, protein folding, drug design, and solvation effects. MD simulations using…
We consider superfluid turbulence near absolute zero of temperature generated by classical means, e.g. towed grid or rotation but not by counterflow. We argue that such turbulence consists of a {\em polarized} tangle of mutually interacting…
We present two approaches for transmitting classical information over quantum broadcast channels. The first technique is a quantum generalization of the superposition coding scheme for the classical broadcast channel. We use a quantum…
Duality transformations within the quantum mechanics of a finite number of degrees of freedom can be regarded as the dependence of the notion of a quantum, i.e., an elementary excitation of the vacuum, on the observer on classical phase…
The question of whether gravity is fundamentally quantum remains one of the most profound open problems in modern physics. A recently explored approach consists in testing gravity's ability to entangle quantum systems, which requires…
The time-dependent transport through single-molecule magnets coupled to magnetic or non-magnetic electrodes is studied in the framework of the generalized master equation method. We investigate the transient regime induced by the periodic…
We consider a scheme for on-demand teleportation of a dual-rail electron qubit state, based on single-electron sources and detectors. The scheme has a maximal efficiency of 25%, which is limited both by the shared entangled state as well as…
Quantum mechanics is nonlocal. Classical mechanics is local. Consequently classical mechanics can not explain all quantum phenomena. Conversely, it is cumbersome to use quantum mechanics to describe classical phenomena. Not only are the…
Quantum pumping holds great potential for future applications in micro- and nanotechnology. Its main feature, dissipationless charge transport, is theoretically possible via several different mechanisms. However, since no unambiguous…
We propose a general scheme for dissipatively preparing arbitrary pure quantum states on a multipartite qubit register in a finite number of basic control blocks. Our "splitting-subspace" approach relies on control resources that are…
In a quantum mechanical description of the free-electron laser (FEL) the electrons jump on discrete momentum ladders, while they follow continuous trajectories according to the classical description. In order to observe the transition from…
We investigate the classical and quantum dynamics of an electron confined to a circular quantum dot in the presence of homogeneous $B_{dc}+B_{ac}$ magnetic fields. The classical motion shows a transition to chaotic behavior depending on the…
