In classical thermodynamics the Euler relation is an expression for the internal energy as a sum of the products of canonical pairs of extensive and intensive variables. For quantum systems the situation is more intricate, since one has to account for the effects of the measurement back action. To this end, we derive a quantum analog of the Euler relation, which is governed by the information retrieved by local quantum measurements. The validity of the relation is demonstrated for the collective dissipation model, where we find that thermodynamic behavior is exhibited in the weak-coupling regime.

We investigate the problem of quantization of Nambu mechanics — a problem posed by Nambu [Phys. Rev.D7, 2405 (1973)] — along the line of Wigner–Weyl–Moyal (WWM) phase-space quantization of classical mechanics and show that the quantum analog of Nambu mechanics does not exist.

Polyatomic molecules can perform internal rotational motion of two types: torsional oscillation and free rotation of one part of the molecule with respect to the other part. On the phase plane, these two types of motion are separated by the separatrix. Phase trajectories, originated as a result of periodical external force action on the system, have stochastic nature. For quantum consideration, regarding the motion near to the classical separatrix, transition from the pure quantum-mechanical state to the mixed one takes place. Originating at that mixed state, this must be considered as the quantum analog of the classical dynamic stochasticity and is named as the quantum chaos. This work is devoted to the investigation of the quantum chaos manifestation in the polyatomic molecules, which have a property that performs internal rotation. For the molecule of ethane C 2 H 6, the emergence of quantum chaos and possible ways of its experimental observation has been studied. It is shown that radio-frequency field can produce the non-direct transitions between rotational and oscillatory states. These transitions, being the sign of the existence of quantum chaos, are able to change population levels sizeably. Due to this phenomenon, experimental observation of the infrared absorption is possible.

This paper focuses on infinite-volume bosonic states for a quantum particle system (a quantum gas) in Rd. The kinetic energy part of the Hamiltonian is the standard Laplacian (with a boundary condition at the border of a ‘box’). The particles interact with each other through a two-body finite-range potential depending on the distance between them and featuring a hard core of diameter a>0. We introduce a class of so-called FK-DLR functionals containing all limiting Gibbs states of the system. As a justification of this concept, we prove that for d=2, any FK-DLR functional is shift-invariant, regardless of whether it is unique or not. This yields a quantum analog of results previously achieved by Richthammer.

We discuss aspects of secure quantum communication by proposing and analyzing a quantum analog of the Vernam cipher (one-time-pad). The quantum Vernam cipher uses entanglement as the key to encrypt quantum information sent through an insecure quantum channel. First, in sharp contrast with the classical Vernam cipher, the quantum key can be recycled securely. We show that key recycling is intrinsic to the quantum cipher-text, rather than using entanglement as the key. Second, the scheme detects and corrects for arbitrary transmission errors, and it does so using only local operations and classical communication (LOCC) between the sender and the receiver. The application to quantum message authentication is discussed. Quantum secret sharing schemes with similar properties are characterized. We also discuss two general issues, the relation between secret communication and secret sharing, the classification of secure communication protocols.
