This study investigates the potential impact of intramolecular excitations on the active regions of biomolecular chains, which may play a role in physiological processes within living cells. We assumed that an excitation localized in a…
The spectral landscape and the transport property of a translationally invariant network with side-coupled quantum dots are demonstrated within the tight-binding framework. For periodic environment band structure is demonstrated…
We look into the ontology of quantum theory as distinct from that of the classical theory in the sciences, following a broadly Kantian tradition and distinguishing between the noumenal and phenomenal realities where the former is…
In this thesis, we focus on the energetic analysis within autonomous quantum systems. To this aim, we propose a novel and general formalism for a dynamic description of the energy exchanges between interacting subsystems. From the Schmidt…
We study emerging notions of quantum correlations in compound systems. Based on different definitions of quantumness in individual subsystems, we investigate how they extend to the joint description of a composite system. Especially, we…
A model Hamiltonian is proposed in order to understand the localization-delocalization transition in a quantum dot, where there are two gate voltages: top and side. Considering energetically favorable degrees of freedom only, we achieve a…
We show that the formation/evaporation of Black Holes (BH) unitarizes quantum gravity at all the orders of the perturbation theory. Non-perturbative quantum effects save the scattering amplitudes from any polynomial divergences. Such a…
Quantum coherence is a fundamental property of quantum systems, separating quantum from classical physics. Recently, there has been significant interest in the characterization of quantum coherence as a resource, investigating how coherence…
We investigate spatial reflection and associated nonlocal order in spin chain quantum systems. The proposed string order parameters, e.g., reflected via operations of the spatial reflection or combinations of it with spin reflection, are…
We study different notions of quantum correlations in multipartite systems of distinguishable and indistinguishable particles. Based on the definition of quantum coherence for a single particle, we consider two possible extensions of this…
We report the first experimental demonstration of distillation of quantum nonlocality, confirming the recent theoretical protocol [\textit{Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 120401 (2009)}]. Quantum nonlocality is described by a correlation box with…
We argue that quantum nonlocality of entangled states is not an actual phenomenon. It appears in quantum mechanics as a consequence of the inconsistency of its superposition principle with the corpuscular properties of a quantum particle.…
A thought experiment is discussed to clarify the concept of decoherence. Superposition of states consisting of ground state of a single hydrogen atom and its excited state after a huge amount of time is discussed to show that the…
The quest for Anderson localization of light is at the center of many experimental and the- oretical activities. Atomic vapors play a particular role in this research field, as they show a number of specific properties which makes them…
Causal nonseparability refers to processes where events take place in a coherent superposition of different causal orders. These may be the key resource for experimental violations of causal inequalities and have been recently identified as…
We first argue that the covalent bond and the various closed-shell interactions can be thought of as symmetry broken versions of one and the same interaction, viz., the multi-center bond. We use specially chosen molecular units to show that…
Decoherence in quantum systems which are classically chaotic is studied. It is well-known that a classically chaotic system when quantized loses many prominent chaotic traits. We show that interaction of the quantum system with an…
We study the role of entanglement and non-locality in quantum protocols that make use of systems of identical particles. Unlike in the case of distinguishable particles, the notions of entanglement and non-locality for systems whose…
Quantum coherence, rooted in the superposition principle of quantum mechanics, is a crucial quantum resource. Various measures, operational interpretations, and generalizations of quantum coherence have been proposed. In recent years, its…
