Superoscillations occur when a globally band-limited function locally oscillates faster than its highest Fourier coefficient. We generalize this effect to arbitrary quantum mechanical operators as a weak value, where the preselected state…

Topology is key in describing unconventional quantum phases of matter and devising robust quantum technology. Exactly how topology mixes with quantum mechanics remains largely unclear, as testified by the lack of a unifying microscopic…

It is well known that, due to the uncertainty principle, the Planck constant sets a resolution boundary in phase space and the resulting trade-off in resolution between incompatible measurements has been thoroughly investigated. It is also…

Quantum theory makes the most accurate empirical predictions and yet it lacks simple, comprehensible physical principles from which the theory can be uniquely derived. A broad class of probabilistic theories exist which all share some…

We propose a phenomenological model that describes counterflow and drag experiments with quantum Hall bilayers in a \nu_T=1 state. We consider the system consisting of statistically distributed areas with local total filling factors…

As shown in Phys. Rev. A 96, 020101(R) (2017), it is possible to demonstrate that quantum particles do not move along straight lines in free space by increasing the probability of finding the particles within narrow intervals of position…

An inequality in quantum mechanics, which does not appear to be well known, is derived by elementary means and shown to be quite useful. The inequality applies to 'all' operators and 'all' pairs of quantum states, including mixed states. It…

The current density for a freely evolving state without negative momentum components can temporarily be negative. The operational arrival time distribution, defined by the absorption rate of an ideal detector, is calculated for a model…

This is the second of the two related papers analysing origins and possible explanations of a paradoxical phenomenon of the quantum potential (QP). It arises in quantum mechanics'(QM) of a particle in the Riemannian $n$-dimensional…

Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is a cornerstone of classical scientific computing, and there is growing interest in whether quantum computers can accelerate such simulations. To date, the existing proposals for fault-tolerant quantum…

Finite-temperature quantum turbulence is often described in terms of two immiscible fluids that can flow with a non-zero mean relative velocity. Such out-of-equilibrium state is known as counterflow superfluid turbulence. We report here the…

In one-dimension, quantum fluctuations prevent the appearance of long-range order in a supersolid, and only quasi long-range order can survive. We derive this quantum critical behavior and study its influence on the superfluid response and…
