Real World Problems

The field of optimization science is proliferating that has made complex real-world problems easy to solve. Metaheuristics based algorithms inspired by nature or physical phenomena based methods have made its way in providing near-ideal (optimal) solutions to several complex real-world problems. Ant lion Optimization (ALO) has inspired by the hunting behavior of antlions for searching for food. Even with a unique idea, it has some limitations like a slower rate of convergence and sometimes confines itself into local solutions (optima). Therefore, to enhance its performance of classical ALO, quantum information theory is hybridized with classical ALO and named as QALO or quantum theory based ALO. It can escape from the limitations of basic ALO and also produces stability between processes of explorations followed by exploitation. CEC2017 benchmark set is adopted to estimate the performance of QALO compared with state-of-the-art algorithms. Experimental and statistical results demonstrate that the proposed method is superior to the original ALO. The proposed QALO extends further to solve the model order reduction (MOR) problem. The QALO based MOR method performs preferably better than other compared techniques. The results from the simulation study illustrate that the proposed method effectively utilized for global optimization and model order reduction.

Many Body Systems

In recent years, tools from quantum information theory have become indispensable in characterizing many-body systems. In this work, we employ measures of entanglement to study the interplay between disorder and the topological phase in 1D systems of the Kitaev type, which can host Majorana end modes at their edges. We find that the entanglement entropy may actually increase as a result of disorder, and identify the origin of this behavior in the appearance of an infinite-disorder critical point. We also employ the entanglement spectrum to accurately determine the phase diagram of the system, and find that disorder may enhance the topological phase, and lead to the appearance of Majorana zero modes in systems whose clean version is trivial.

Proper Extension

Proposed quantum experiments in deep space will be able to explore quantum information issues in regimes where relativistic effects are important. In this essay, we argue that a proper extension of quantum information theory into the relativistic domain requires the expression of all informational notions in terms of quantum field theoretic (QFT) concepts. This task requires a working and practicable theory of QFT measurements. We present the foundational problems in constructing such a theory, especially in relation to longstanding causality and locality issues in the foundations of QFT. Finally, we present the ongoing Quantum Temporal Probabilities program for constructing a measurement theory that (i) works, in principle, for any QFT, (ii) allows for a first- principles investigation of all relevant issues of causality and locality, and (iii) it can be directly applied to experiments of current interest.
