The evolution of quantum coherences comes with a set of conservation laws provided that the Hamiltonian governing this evolution conserves the spin-excitation number. At that, coherences do not intertwist during the evolution. Using the transmission line and the receiver in the initial ground state we can transfer the coherences to the receiver without interaction between them, { although the matrix elements contributing to each particular coherence intertwist in the receivers state. } Therefore we propose a tool based on the unitary transformation at the receiver side to { untwist these elements and thus} restore (at least partially) the structure of the senders initial density matrix. A communication line with two-qubit sender and receiver is considered as an example of implementation of this technique.
Here we show that noisy coupling can lead to diffusive lossless energy transfer between individual quantum systems retaining a quantum character leading to entangled stationary states. Coherence might flow diffusively while being summarily preserved even when energy exchange is absent. Diffusive dynamics persists even in the case when additional noise suppresses all the unitary excitation exchange: arbitrarily strong local dephasing, while destroying quantum correlations, is not affecting energy transfer.
We investigate theoretically the quantum-coherence properties of the cathodoluminescence (CL) emission produced by a temporally modulated electron beam. Specifically, we consider the quantum-optical correlations of CL from electrons that are previously shaped by a laser field. The main prediction here is the presence of phase correlations between the emitted CL field and the electron-modulating laser, even though the emission intensity and spectral profile are independent of the electron state. In addition, the coherence of the CL field extends to harmonics of the laser frequency. Since electron beams can be focused to below one Angstrom, their ability to transfer optical coherence could enable ultra precise excitation, manipulation, and spectroscopy of nanoscale quantum systems.
We develop the protocol for structural restoring of multi-quantum coherence matrices of the multi-qubit quantum state transferred from the sender to the receiver along a spin-1/2 chain. We also propose a protocol for constructing such 0-order coherence matrix that can be perfectly transferred in this process. The restoring protocol is based on the specially constructed unitary transformation of the extended receiver.{This transformation for a given length parameters of the chain is universally optimal in the sense that ones constructed it can be applied to optimally restore any higher-order coherence matrices.
In this paper, we address the issue of enhancing coherence of a state under stochastic strictly incoherent operations. Based on the $l_1$ norm of coherence, we obtain the maximal value of coherence that can be achieved for a state undergoing a stochastic strictly incoherent operation and the maximal probability of obtaining the maximal coherence. Our findings indicate that a pure state can be transformed into a maximally coherent state under a stochastic strictly incoherent operation if and only if all the components of the pure state are nonzero while a mixed state can never be transformed into a maximally coherent state under a stochastic strictly incoherent operation.
The resource theory of coherence studies the operational value of superpositions in quantum technologies. A key question in this theory concerns the efficiency of manipulation and inter-conversion of the resource. Here we solve this question completely for qubit states by determining the optimal probabilities for mixed state
