Motivated by a recent experiment by Yacoby et al.\ [preprint, 1994], we calculate magnitude and phase $\alpha$ of the transmission amplitude through a quantum dot. We work in the Coulomb blockade regime, assume the electrons not to…
Entanglement properties of bipartite unitary operators are studied via their local invariants, namely the entangling power $e_p$ and a complementary quantity, the gate typicality $g_t$. We characterize the boundaries of the set $K_2$…
The present paper generalizes preceding papers of the author and opens a cycle of works concerning the general posing and solution in analytic form of the quantum-mechanical inverse scattering problem (for a given partial channel) in a…
Quantum phase transitions occur at zero temperature and involve the appearance of long-range correlations. These correlations are not due to thermal fluctuations but to the intricate structure of a strongly entangled ground state of the…
The data associated with the electromagnetic excitations of the nucleon ($\gamma^\ast N \to N^\ast$) are usually parametrized by helicity amplitudes at the resonance $N^\ast$ rest frame. The properties of the $\gamma^\ast N \to N^\ast$…
We investigate the quantum phase transition in the alternating XY chain with the XZX+YZY type of three-spin interactions. We present the exact solution derived by means of the Jordan-Wigner transformation and study the average…
We present the transition amplitude for a particle moving in a space with two times and D space dimensions having a Sp(2,R) local symmetry and an SO(D,2) rigid symmetry. It was obtained from the BRST-BFV quantization with a unique gauge…
We analyze the spontaneous switching between the two N\'eel states of Fe chains on Cu$_2$N/Cu(100), experimentally studied by Loth et al. [Science 335, 196 (2012)]. We show that, in the experimental low-temperature regime (T ~ 1K),…
In this paper we develop the topics of Quantum Recurrences and of Quantum Fidelity which have attracted great interest in recent years. The return probability is given by the square modulus of the overlap between a given initial wavepacket…
We investigate alternative annealing schedules on the current generation of quantum annealing hardware (the D-Wave 2000Q), which includes the use of forward and reverse annealing with an intermediate pause. This work provides new insights…
We investigate the impact of quantum and thermal phase fluctuations on the suppression of superconducting order in two-dimensional systems. Within the two-dimensional quantum XY model in the phase representation, where on-site interaction…
We consider thermal QCD in the large N_C limit, mainly in 1+1 dimensions. The gauge coupling is only taken into account to minimal order, by projection onto colour singlets. An expression for the free energy, exact as N_C goes to infinity,…
We derive an $n$-resolved Master equation for quantum transport that includes a dependence on the number $n$ of tunneled electrons in system parameters such as tunnel rates and energy levels. We apply the formalism to describe dynamical…
We study the quantum dynamics of a one-dimensional spin-1/2 anisotropic XY model in a transverse field when the transverse field or the anisotropic interaction is quenched at a slow but uniform rate. The two quenching schemes are called…
We theoretically study the dynamics of a transverse-field Ising chain with power-law decaying interactions characterized by an exponent $\alpha$, which can be experimentally realized in ion traps. We focus on two classes of emergent…
Partially quenched theories are theories in which the valence- and sea-quark masses are different. In this paper we calculate the nonanalytic one-loop corrections of some physical quantities: the chiral condensate, weak decay constants,…
As a step toward satisfactory understanding of the quantum dynamics of Dirichlet \break (D-) particles, the amplitude for the basic process describing the scattering of two quantized D-particles is computed in bosonic string theory. The…
In 4 dimensional Maxwell gauge theory, we study the changes of (Renyi) entangle-ment entropy which are defined by subtracting the entropy for the ground state from the one for the locally excited states generated by acting with the gauge…
Currently there is no general theory of quantum tunnelling of a particle through a potential barrier which is compatible with QFT. We present a complete calculation of tunnelling amplitudes for a scalar field for some simple potentials…
A quantum phase transition is generally thought to imprint distinctive characteristics on the nonequilibrium dynamics of a closed quantum system. Specifically, the Loschmidt echo after a sudden quench to a quantum critical point $-$…
