In this paper we give a logical analysis of both classical and quantum correlations. We propose a new logical system to reason
about the information carried by a complex system composed of several parts. Our formalism is based on an extension of epistemic
logic with operators for “group knowledge” (the logic GEL), further extended with atomic sentences describing the results of “joint observations” (the logic LCK). As models we introduce correlation models, as a generalization of the standard representation of epistemic models as vector models. We give sound and complete axiomatizations
for our logics, and we use this setting to investigate the relationship between the information carried by each of the parts
of a complex system and the information carried by the whole system. In particular we distinguish between the “distributed
information”, obtainable by simply pooling together all the information that can be separately observed in any of the parts,
and “correlated information”, obtainable only by doing joint observations of the parts (and pooling together the results).
Our formalism throws a new light on the difference between classical and quantum information and gives rise to an informational-logical
characterization of the notion of “quantum entanglement”. 相似文献

The conventional separation of states of the quantised radiation field into “classical” and “nonclassical” types is expressed
in a dual operator form and then refined. This is based on new features of the normal ordering rule for passage from classical
to quantum dynamical variables. The cases of single and two-mode radiation fields are discussed 相似文献

In seeking to arrive at a theory of “quantum gravity,” one faces several choices among alternative approaches. I list some
of these “forks in the road” and offer reasons for taking one alternative over the other. In particular, I advocate the following:
the sum-over-histories framework for quantum dynamics over the “observable and state-vector” framework; relative probabilities
over absolute ones; spacetime over space as the gravitational “substance” (4 over 3+1); a Lorentzian metric over a Riemannian
(“Euclidean”) one; a dynamical topology over an absolute one; degenerate metrics over closed timelike curves to mediate topology
change; “unimodular gravity” over the unrestricted functional integral; and taking a discrete underlying structure (the causal
set) rather than the differentiable manifold as the basis of the theory. In connection with these choices, I also mention
some results from unimodular quantum cosmology, sketch an account of the origin of black hole entropy, summarize an argument
that the quantum mechanical measurement scheme breaks down for quantum field theory, and offer a reason why the cosmological
constant of the present epoch might have a magnitude of around 10−120 in natural units.

The famous “spooky action at a distance” in the EPR-scenario is shown to be a local interaction, once entanglement is interpreted as a kind of “nearest neighbor” relation among quantum systems. Furthermore, the wave function itself is interpreted as encoding the “nearest neighbor” relations between a quantum system and spatial points. This interpretation becomes natural, if we view space and distance in terms of relations among spatial points. Therefore, “position” becomes a purely relational concept. This relational picture leads to a new perspective onto the quantum mechanical formalism, where many of the “weird” aspects, like the particle-wave duality, the non-locality of entanglement, or the “mystery” of the double-slit experiment, disappear. Furthermore, this picture circumvents the restrictions set by Bell’s inequalities, i.e., a possible (realistic) hidden variable theory based on these concepts can be local and at the same time reproduce the results of quantum mechanics.

The rise of quantum information theory has lent new relevance to experimental tests for non-classicality, particularly in
controversial cases such as adiabatic quantum computing superconducting circuits. The Leggett-Garg inequality is a “Bell inequality
in time” designed to indicate whether a single quantum system behaves in a macrorealistic fashion. Unfortunately, a violation
of the inequality can only show that the system is either (i) non-macrorealistic or (ii) macrorealistic but subjected to a measurement technique that happens to disturb the system. The “clumsiness” loophole
(ii) provides reliable refuge for the stubborn macrorealist, who can invoke it to brand recent experimental and theoretical
work on the Leggett-Garg test inconclusive. Here, we present a revised Leggett-Garg protocol that permits one to conclude
that a system is either (i) non-macrorealistic or (ii) macrorealistic but with the property that two seemingly non-invasive measurements can somehow collude and strongly disturb
the system. By providing an explicit check of the invasiveness of the measurements, the protocol replaces the clumsiness loophole
with a significantly smaller “collusion” loophole. 相似文献

The correspondence between the statistical properties of the evolution of a quantum system and Lyapunov instability and the
chaos of its semiclassical analog has been demonstrated. The results of the analyses of atomic motion in a laser field in
the semiclassical approximation (dynamics is described by several nonlinear equations) and without this approximation (dynamics
is described by an infinite system of linear equations) are compared. In the ranges of the parameters for which the semiclassical
dynamics of point-like atoms is unstable, the fast “spreading” of quantized wave packets in the momentum space is observed.
Thus, deterministic chaos “imitates” the statistics of the quantum nondeterministic effects, although the semiclassical and
quantum solutions are fundamentally different. 相似文献

We rigorously analyze the stability of the “quasi-classical” dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate with repulsive and attractive
interactions, trapped in an effective 1D toroidal geometry. The “classical” dynamics, which corresponds to the Gross-Pitaevskii
mean field theory, is stable in the case of repulsive interaction, and unstable (under some conditions) in the case of attractive
interaction. The corresponding quantum dynamics for observables is described by using a closed system of linear partial differential
equations. In both cases of stable and unstable quasi-classical dynamics the quantum effects represent a singular perturbation
to the quasi-classical solutions, and are described by the terms in these equations which consist of a small quasi-classical
parameter which multiplies high-order “spatial” derivatives. We demonstrate that as a result of the quantum singularity for
observables a convergence of quantum solutions to the corresponding classical solutions exists only for limited times, and
estimate the characteristic time-scales of the convergence. 相似文献

We introduce and study two new examples of noncommutative spheres: the half-liberated sphere, and the free sphere. Together
with the usual sphere, these two spheres have the property that the corresponding quantum isometry group is “easy”, in the
representation theory sense. We present as well some general comments on the axiomatization problem, and on the “untwisted”
and “non-easy” case. 相似文献

Transition Probability (fidelity) for pairs of density operators can be defined as a “functor” in the hierarchy of “all” quantum
systems and also within any quantum system. The Introduction of “amplitudes” for density operators allows for a more intuitive
treatment of these quantities, also pointing to a natural parallel transport. The latter is governed by a remarkable gauge
theory with strong relations to the Riemann-Bures metric. 相似文献

A “microscopic” justification of the “symmetric damping” model of a quantum oscillator with time-dependent frequency and time-dependent
damping is given. This model is used to predict the results of experiments on simulating the dynamical Casimir effect in a
cavity with a photo-excited semiconductor mirror. It is shown that the most general bilinear time-dependent coupling of a
selected oscillator (field mode) to a bath of harmonic oscillators results in two equal friction coefficients for the both
quadratures, provided all the coupling coefficients are proportional to a single arbitrary function of time whose duration
is much shorter than the periods of all oscillators. The choice of coupling in the rotating wave approximation form leads
to the “minimum noise” model of the quantum damped oscillator, introduced earlier in a pure phenomenological way. 相似文献

Quantum scattering of photons inside a one-dimensional waveguide caused by a number of closely located resonant two-level
atoms is studied using the theory of integrable quantum systems. The multi-particle wave function of scattered photons is
represented as a sum of terms of different degrees of “entanglement.” For two-photon scattering we discuss explicitly differences
in photon correlations for the single two-level atom case and the case of several atoms. 相似文献

A potential new class of “monocyclic” lasing dyes is discussed and four families out of nine within the class are examined.
The 2,6-diaminopyridines in acid are found to lase under flashlamp excitation but show low slope efficiencies and lower stabilities
than the “bicyclic” dyes described previously. Other, miscellaneous dyes show oxygen quenching of laser action rather than
enhancement and the best of these produces short pulses under long pulse excitation.

The natural generalization of the notion of bundle in quantum geometry is that of bimodule. If the base space has quantum
group symmetries, one is particularly interested in bimodules covariant (equivariant) under these symmetries. Most attention
has so far been focused on the case with maximal symmetry — where the base space is a quantum group and the bimodules are
bicovariant. The structure of bicovariant bimodules is well understood through their correspondence with crossed modules.
We investigate the “next best” case — where the base space is a quantum homogeneous space and the bimodules are covariant.
We present a structure theorem that resembles the one for bicovariant bimodules. Thus, there is a correspondence between covariant
bimodules and a new kind of “crossed” modules which we define. The latter are attached to the pair of quantum groups which
defines the quantum homogeneous space.
We apply our structure theorem to differential calculi on quantum homogeneous spaces and discuss a related notion of induced
differential calculus.

The mathematical language presently used for quantum physics is a high-level language. As a lowest-level or basic language
I construct a quantum set theory in three stages: (1) Classical set theory, formulated as a Clifford algebra of “S numbers” generated by a single monadic operation, “bracing,” Br = {…}. (2) Indefinite set theory, a modification of set theory
dealing with the modal logical concept of possibility. (3) Quantum set theory. The quantum set is constructed from the null
set by the familiar quantum techniques of tensor product and antisymmetrization. There are both a Clifford and a Grassmann
algebra with sets as basis elements. Rank and cardinality operators are analogous to Schroedinger coordinates of the theory,
in that they are multiplication or “Q-type” operators. “P-type” operators analogous to Schroedinger momenta, in that they transform theQ-type quantities, are bracing (Br), Clifford multiplication by a setX, and the creator ofX, represented by Grassmann multiplicationc(X) by the setX. Br and its adjoint Br* form a Bose-Einstein canonical pair, andc(X) and its adjointc(X)* form a Fermi-Dirac or anticanonical pair. Many coefficient number systems can be employed in this quantization. I use the
integers for a discrete quantum theory, with the usual complex quantum theory as limit. Quantum set theory may be applied
to a quantum time space and a quantum automaton.

We present the results obtained with a Ho,Tm:YLF crystal grown at a new crystal growth facility in Pisa. The optical quality
of the sample has been tested by studying its performance as the active medium of a laser operating at 2.06 μm. We employed
three different pump laser sources: a Ti:sapphire, a diode (both tuned at 793 nm) and, for the first time, a continuous-wave
Co:MgF2 laser, tuned at 1.682 μm. At room temperature the best slope efficiency was 30 % in the case of “red” pumping, and 59 % in
the case of “infrared” excitation. The typical lasing threshold is about 100 mW.

We have recently constructed a many-body theory for composite excitons, in
which the possible carrier exchanges between N excitons can be treated
exactly through a set of dimensionless “Pauli scatterings” between two
excitons. Many-body effects with free excitons turn out to be rather
simple because these excitons are the exact one-pair
eigenstates of the semiconductor Hamiltonian, in the absence of localized
traps. They consequently form a complete orthogonal basis for one-pair
states. As essentially all quantum particles known as bosons are
composite bosons, it is highly desirable to
extend this free exciton many-body theory to other kinds of
“cobosons” — a contraction for composite bosons — the physically
relevant ones being possibly not the exact one-pair eigenstates of
the system Hamiltonian. The purpose of this paper is
to derive the “Pauli scatterings” and the “interaction scatterings” of
these cobosons in terms of their wave functions and the interactions
which exist between the fermions from which they are
constructed. It is also explained how to calculate many-body effects in
such a very general composite boson system. 相似文献

The condition for the appearance of an event horizon is considered in pair-correlated systems (superfluids and superconductors)
in which the fermionic quasiparticles obey “relativistic” equations. In these systems the Landau critical velocity of superflow
corresponds to the speed of light. In conventional systems, such as s-wave superconductors, the superflow remains stable even above the Landau threshold. We show, however, that, in “ relativistic”
systems, the quantum vacuum becomes unstable and the superflow collapses after the “speed of light” is reached, so that the
horizon cannot appear. Thus an equilibrium dissipationless superflow state and the horizon are incompatible on account of
quantum effects. This negative result is consistent with the quantum Hawking radiation from the horizon, which would lead
to a dissipation of the flow.

We have used numerical modeling to establish the major features of the variation (sweeping) of the “ instantaneous” laser
frequency of heterojunction quantum lasers as a function of the pump current modulation frequency and tuning of the lasing
frequency within the gain band. The active medium is described within a two-band model with identical distribution of levels
for the electron and hole subbands, assuming transitions with no selection rule between the ground-state subbands. Sweeping
of the laser frequency occurs due to variation of the refractive index of the active medium, as a result of the variation
in the concentration of nonequilibrium charge carriers. Laser frequency sweeping does not occur for low current modulation
frequencies, corresponding to realization of the quasisteady-state lasing regime. In the other limiting case of relatively
high current modulation frequencies, the modulation depth of the laser output also tends toward zero. The magnitude of the
sweep is greatest in the intermediate current modulation frequency region. For a specified current modulation frequency, the
dynamic shift of the laser mode depends on the position of the lasing frequency within the gain band.
