Procedure via cross-Kerr nonlinearities for encoding single logical qubit information onto four-photon decoherence-free states

We propose a photonic procedure using cross-Kerr nonlinearities (XKNLs) to encode single logical qubit information onto four-photon decoherence-free states. In quantum information processing, a decoherence-free subspace can secure quantum information against collective decoherence. Therefore, we design a procedure employing nonlinear optical gates, which are composed of XKNLs, quantum bus beams, and photon-number-resolving measurements with linear optical devices, to conserve quantum information by encoding quantum information onto four-photon decoherence-free states (single logical qubit information). Based on our analysis in quantifying the affection (photon loss and dephasing) of the decoherence effect, we demonstrate the experimental condition to acquire the reliable procedure of single logical qubit information having the robustness against the decoherence effect.

Portable Pulsed Coherent Lidar for Noncooperation Targets at the Few-Photon Level

The decoherence in coherent lidar becomes serious with the increase in distance. A small laser spot can suppress the decoherence of the echo light from noncooperation targets. However, it is very difficult to keep a small light spot over a long distance. In this paper, a pulsed coherent lidar with high sensitivity at the few-photon level was demonstrated. A phase plate was used to modulate the wavefront of the laser to achieve 100 m focusing which reduced the decoherence effect. Based on coherent detection and time-of-flight (TOF) measurements, long-distance laser ranging and imaging on all days was realized. A signal classification and superposition method was used to extract the echo signal submerged in noise. The system was experimentally demonstrated by ranging different noncooperation targets within 105.0 m. The measurement rate was 10 k/s, and the measurement uncertainty was 1.48 cm. In addition, laser imaging was realized at ~50.0 m. The system was simple and portable as well as eye safe, and it may offer new application possibilities in automated vehicle lidar.

Quantum Fisher Information and Bures Distance Correlations of Coupled Two Charge-Qubits Inside a Coherent Cavity with the Intrinsic Decoherence

The dynamics of two charged qubits containing Josephson Junctions inside a cavity are investigated under the intrinsic decoherence effect. New types of quantum correlations via local quantum Fisher information and Bures distance norm are explored. We show that we can control the quantum correlations robustness by the intrinsic decoherence rate, the qubit-qubit coupling as well as by the initial coherent states superposition. The phenomenon of sudden changes and the freezing behavior for the local quantum Fisher information are sensitive to the initial coherent state superposition and the intrinsic decoherence.

ℋolographic 𝒩aturalness

The [Formula: see text]olographic [Formula: see text]aturalness ([Formula: see text]) is a new paradigm towards an explanation of the Cosmological Constant (CC) and the Higgs Hierarchy (HH) in the Universe. Motivated by the Holographic Principle, and inspired by the (A)dS/CFT correspondence, we elaborate on the possibility and on the cosmological consequences of a fundamental intrinsic disorder and temperature in vacuo. We postulate that the zero vacuum entropy is provided by a large number of quantum hair fields, the hairons. The quantum hairon gas in spacetime induces an effective decoherence effect to the Standard Model (SM) particle sector. This is leading to an entropic reinterpretation of UV divergent contributions to CC and HH: we will show that, in both the cases, the large number of re-scatterings on the hairon ensamble suppresses any radiative instabilities. The CC and HH problems are illusions envisaged by a conscious observer, having access on the limited amount of information from SM tests: both the issues are originated from our ignorance of the hidden entropy intrinsically stored in the spacetime. The [Formula: see text] suggests to search for effective decoherence effects in particle physics observables such as effective CPT, Unitarity and Energy violations. Regarding the HH, the [Formula: see text] does not introduce any new particles or interactions around the TeV-scale: we do not expect for any signatures, at LHC and any future high energy colliders, related to the Higgs UV completion in a Wilsonian sense.
