The maximal evolution speed of a quantum system can be represented by quantum speed limit time (QSLT).We investigate QSLT of a two-qubit system passing through a correlated channel (amplitude damping, phase damping, and depolarizing).By…

Based on the generalized principle of relativity and the ensuing symmetry, we have shown that there are only two possible types of transformations between uniformly accelerated systems. The first allowable type of transformation holds if…

The Margolus-Levitin (ML) bound says that for any time-independent Hamiltonian, the time needed to evolve from one quantum state to another is at least $\pi \alpha(\epsilon) / (2 \langle E-E_0 \rangle)$, where $\langle E-E_0 \rangle$ is the…

The quantum speed limit (QSL) is the theoretical lower limit of the time for a quantum system to evolve from a given state to another one. Interestingly, it has been shown that non-Markovianity can be used to speed-up the dynamics and to…

The attempt to gain a theoretical understanding of the concept of time in quantum mechanics has triggered significant progress towards the search for faster and more efficient quantum technologies. One of such advances consists in the…

One of the strongest arguments against the cosmological constant as an explanation of the current epoch of accelerated cosmic expansion is the existence of an earlier, dynamical acceleration, i.e. inflation. We examine the likelihood that…
