We discuss the time-continuous path integration in the coherent states basis in a way that is free from inconsistencies. Employing this notion we reproduce known and exact results working directly in the continuum. Such a formalism can set…
Unlike classical bits that can only occupy one of two discrete states, quantum bits (qubits) can exist in arbitrary coherent superpositions of the ground and excited states. This fundamental distinction grants qubits enhanced capabilities…
We show that when photons in N-particle path entangled |N,0> + |0,N> state undergo Bloch oscillations, they exhibit a periodic transition between spatially bunched and antibunched states. The transition occurs even when the photons are well…
