A single three-level atom driven by a longitudinal mode of a high-Q cavity is used to implement two-qubit quantum phase gates for the intracavity field. The two qubits are associated to the zero-and one-photon Fock states of each of the two…
Single-photon sources are in high demand for quantum information applications. A paradigmatic way to achieve single-photon emission is through anharmonicity in the energy levels, such that the absorption of a single photon from a coherent…

We consider QM with non-Hermitian quasi-diagonalizable Hamiltonians, i.e. the Hamiltonians having a number of Jordan cells in particular biorthogonal bases. The "self-orthogonality" phenomenon is clarified in terms of a correct spectral…

We investigate the effect of a cavity on nonlinear two-photon transitions of a molecular system and how such an effect depends on the cavity quality factor, the field enhancement and the possibility of dephasing. We find that the molecular…

In a full solution for a scalar quantum field coupled to an accelerating isotropic universe, all constituent non-autonomous modes of elementary excitation cease to oscillate and become unstable at a discrete sequence of times. After…
The realization of equilibrium superradiant quantum phases (photon condensates) in a spatially-uniform quantum cavity field is forbidden by a "no-go" theorem stemming from gauge invariance. We here show that the no-go theorem does not apply…
The standard Hamiltonian machinery, being applied to field theory, leads to infinite-dimensional phase spaces. It is not covariant. In this article, we present covariant finite-dimensional multimomentum Hamiltonian formalism for field…

Graviton-photon conversions in a given external electric or magnetic field, known as the Gertsenshtein mechanism, are usually treated using the four-potential for photons. In terms of the electric and magnetic (EM) fields, however, proper…
