Resonance tongues in a system of globally coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators with time-periodic coupling strength

We investigate the dynamics of a population of globally coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators with a time-periodic coupling strength. While for synchronizing global coupling, the in-phase state is always stable, the oscillators split into several cluster states for desynchronizing global coupling, most commonly in two, irrespective of the coupling strength. This confines the ability of the system to form n:m locked states considerably. The prevalence of two and four cluster states leads to large 2:1 and 4:1 subharmonic resonance regions, while at low coupling strength for a harmonic 1:1 or a superharmonic 1:m time-periodic coupling coefficient, any resonances are absent and the system exhibits nonresonant phase drifting cluster states. Furthermore, in the unforced, globally coupled system the frequency of the oscillators in a cluster state is in general lower than that of the uncoupled oscillator and strongly depends on the coupling strength. Periodic variation of the coupling strength at twice the natural frequency causes each oscillator to keep oscillating with its autonomous oscillation period.     

Fast generation of cluster states in a linear ion trap

We propose a practical scheme to generate cluster states by simultaneously accomplishing two-qubit conditional gating on an array of equidistant ions by using transverse modes. Our operation is robust to heating and insensitive to Lamb--Dicke parameter. Meanwhile, as it is carried out in a geometric quantum computing fashion, our scheme enables the fast and high-fidelity generation of cluster states. The experimental feasibility is discussed with sophisticated ion trap techniques.     

Experimental violation of a cluster state bell inequality

Cluster states are a new type of multiqubit entangled states with entanglement properties exceptionally well suited for quantum computation. In the present work, we experimentally demonstrate that correlations in a four-qubit linear cluster state cannot be described by local realism. This exploration is based on a recently derived Bell-type inequality [V. Scarani et al., Phys. Rev. A 71, 042325 (2005)] which is tailored, by using a combination of three- and four-particle correlations, to be maximally violated by cluster states but not violated at all by GHZ states. We observe a cluster-state Bell parameter of 2.59+/-0.08, which is more than 7sigma larger than the threshold of 2 imposed by local realism.     

Phase diagrams of noisy traffic states in the presence of a bottleneck

The traffic states are investigated for the noisy traffic flow in the presence of a bottleneck under the open boundary condition. The phase diagrams of the different kinds of congested traffic are presented for different values of sensitivity (the inverse of delay time). It is shown that the five different types of traffic states appear below the critical point: the free traffic with a pinned localized cluster, the weak standing shock, the moving localized cluster, the oscillatory congested traffic, and the strong standing shock. Above the critical point, the moving localized cluster and oscillatory congested traffic do not occur. Also, in the traffic flow without noise, the moving localized cluster and oscillatory congested traffic do not appear.     

Generation of Ising interaction and cluster states in a one-dimensional coupled resonator waveguide

We propose a scheme for realizing the Ising spin-spin interaction and atomic cluster states utilizing the trapped two-level atoms inside a one-dimensional coupled resonator waveguide. In the strong driving and large detuning conditions, an effective Ising spin-spin interaction can be generated through suitably tuning the parameters. Then atomic cluster states are produced by using this Ising interaction. This scheme need not initially prepare the superposition states of atoms, and is insensitive to cavity decay.     

Bound states of an electron and a macroscopic cluster at a liquid helium surface

In a strong electric field, there are bound states of an electron at the surface of liquid helium, interacting with a large cluster of atoms in the bulk of liquid. This phenomenon is related to long-range interaction between the electron and the dipole moment of the cluster. The electron, holding the cluster under the liquid surface, is localized at this surface. One electron is capable of binding a cluster of up to 10⁶ atoms. The value of the binding energy may reach up to several kelvins.     

Preparation of Entanglement of Atoms and of Photons via Cavity Input-Output Process

We propose a method to prepare multipartite entangled states such as cluster states and graph states based on the cavity input-output process and single photon measurement. Two quantum gates, a controlled phase gate and a fusion gate between two atoms trapped in respective cavities, are proposed to prepare atomic cluster states and graph states with one and two dimensions. We also introduce a scheme that can generate an arbitrary multipartite photon duster state which uses two coherent states as a qubit basis.     

Calculation of electronic density of states using a self-consistent cluster-Bethe-lattice method

The electronic density of states for a periodic crystal is calculated by embedding a cluster of atoms in a Bethe-lattice medium. The structure of the Bethe-lattice Hamiltonian is determined by self-consistency requirements. The results for the density of states using this self-consistent cluster-Bethe-lattice method show excellent agreement with the exact density of states and significant improvement over previous calculations using the cluster-Bethe-lattice approach.     

Multi-Qubits Entangled State Generation with Multiple Flux Qubits Coupled to a Coplanar Waveguide Resonator

We propose a scheme to efficiently implement multi-qubits entangled states with multiple low-decoherence superconducting flux qubits coupled with a coplanar waveguide resonator. By accurate controlling the evolution operator, the cluster states, Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states, and W-type states can be generated by our scheme, respectively.     

Five- and six-body resonances tied to an Efimov trimer

We explore the properties of weakly bound bosonic states in the strongly interacting regime. Combining a correlated-Gaussian basis set expansion with a complex-scaling method, we extract the energies and structural properties of bosonic cluster states with N ≤ 6 for different two-body potentials. The identification of five- and six-body resonances attached to the first-excited-Efimov trimer provides strong support to the premise of Efimov universality in bosonic systems. Our study also reveals a rich structure of bosonic cluster states. Besides the lowest cluster states that behave as bosonic droplets, we identify cluster states weakly bound to one or two atoms forming effective cluster-atom dimers and cluster-atom-atom "trimers." The experimental signatures of these cluster states are discussed.     

Generation of Cluster States in Cavity QED

We propose two schemes for the generation of cluster states in the context of cavity quantum electrodynamics （QED）. In the first scheme, we prepare multi-cavity cluster states with information encoded in the coherent states. The second scheme is to generate multi-atom cluster states, where qubits axe represented by the states of cascade Rydberg atoms. Both the schemes axe based on the atom-cavity interaction and the atomic spontaneous radiation can be efficiently reduced since the cavity frequency is largely detuned from the atomic transition frequency.     

通过cluster态实现两粒子纠缠态的量子几率隐形传态

提出通过一个四粒子cluster非最大纠缠态作为量子信道来实现一未知两粒子纠缠态的量子几率隐形传态方案。在此方案中,纠缠态可以实现一定的几率传输,此几率由cluster态中绝对值较小的两个系数决定。如果我们用cluster最大纠缠态作为量子信道,此时几率隐形传态就成了一般的隐形传态,即成功传输的几率为100%。

A Scheme for Generating Cluster States via Raman Interaction

A scheme for generating cluster states via Raman interaction is proposed. In the scheme, we firstly prepare cluster states of multi-cavities with information encoded in the coherent states and then generate cluster states of multiatoms, which encode the information in the ground states of A-type atoms. The advantages of our scheme are that the atomic spontaneous radiation can be efficiently reduced since the cavity frequency is largely detuned from the atomic transition frequency and the Hadamard gate operation of the coherent states is replaced by measuring the coherent states.     

Minimal classical communication and measurement complexity for quantum information splitting of a two-qubit state

We investigate the usefulness of the highly entangled five-partite cluster and Brown states for the quantum information splitting (QIS) of a special kind of two-qubit state using remote state preparation. In our schemes, the information that is to be shared is known to the sender. We show that, QIS can be accomplished with just two classical bits, as opposed to four classical bits, when the information that is to be shared is unknown to the sender. The present algorithm, demonstrated through the cluster and Brown states is deterministic as compared to the previous works in which it was probabilistic.     

Non-unicity of Gibbs states of Czech models in a half-space

A classical lattice model is studied, with the property that, while yielding a unique state in the bulk, there exist at least two equilibrium states once considered in a half-space. The properties of those two states are discussed. In particular, the cluster expansion method is used to evaluate their difference deep in the bulk away from the boundary of the half-space.     

Preparation of cluster states with trapped electrons on a liquid helium surface

We present a scheme for the preparation of one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) cluster states with electrons trapped on a liquid helium surface and driven by a classical laser beam. The two lowest levels of the vertical motion of the electron act as a two-level system, and the quantized vibration of the electron along one of the parallel directions (the x direction) serves as the bosonic mode. The degrees of freedom of the vertical and parallel motions of the trapped electron can be coupled together by a classical laser field. With the proper frequency of the laser field, the cluster states can be realized.     

Tight binding electrons on a disordered square lattice in a magnetic field

A semiclassical WKB treatment of the density of states spectrum of tight-binding electrons moving in a disordered two dimensional lattice in the presence of a transverse magnetic field is presented. The disorder is accounted for in the coherent potential approximation and analytical results are derived. For both ordered and disordered systems the line position of magnetic subbands as well as the cluster lineshape of the density of states agree quite well with exact numerical results.     

Effective scheme for generation of two-dimensional cluster states via quantum Zeno dynamics

We propose a scheme for preparation of two-dimensional cluster states of atoms, which is based on quantum Zeno dynamics. The influence of decoherence induced by spontaneous emission and the decay of cavity and optical fiber is considered by a straightforward numerical calculation. The results show that a relatively high fidelity of two-dimensional cluster states can be obtained according to the proposed scheme. In addition, it also provides with a scalable way to extend to prepare three-dimensional cluster states in a cubic model.
