Hallmarks of quantum mechanics include superposition and entanglement. In the context of large complex systems, these features should lead to situations like Schrodinger's cat, which exists in a superposition of alive and dead states…
We study the nonclassicality of the evolution of a superposition of an arbitrary number of photon-added squeezed coherent Schr\"{o}dinger cat states in a nonlinear Kerr medium. The nonlinearity of the medium gives rise to the periodicities…
We propose a realistic scheme of generating a traveling odd Schr$\"o$dinger cat state and a generalized entangled coherent state in circuit quantum electrodynamics (circuit-QED). A squeezed vacuum state is used as initial resource of…
Physical systems usually exhibit quantum behavior, such as superpositions and entanglement, only when they are sufficiently decoupled from a lossy environment. Paradoxically, a specially engineered interaction with the environment can…
