By adding a large inductance in a dc-SQUID phase qubit loop, one decouples the junctions dynamics and creates a superconducting artificial atom with two internal degrees of freedom. In addition to the usual symmetric plasma mode ({it s}-mode) which gives rise to the phase qubit, an anti-symmetric mode ({it a}-mode) appears. These two modes can be described by two anharmonic oscillators with eigenstates $ket{n_{s}}$ and $ket{n_{a}}$ for the {it s} and {it a}-mode, respectively. We show that a strong nonlinear coupling between the modes leads to a large energy splitting between states $ket{0_{s},1_{a}}$ and $ket{2_{s},0_{a}}$. Finally, coherent frequency conversion is observed via free oscillations between the states $ket{0_{s},1_{a}}$ and $ket{2_{s},0_{a}}$.

In miniaturising electrical devices down to nanoscales, heat transfer has turned into a serious obstacle but also potential resource for future developments, both for conventional and quantum computing architectures. Controlling heat transport in sup
erconducting circuits has thus received increasing attention in engineering microwave environments for circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) and circuit quantum thermodynamics experiments (cQTD). While theoretical proposals for cQTD devices are numerous, the experimental situation is much less advanced. There exist only relatively few experimental realisations, mostly due to the difficulties in developing the hybrid devices and in interfacing these often technologically contrasting components. Here we show a realisation of a quantum heat rectifier, a thermal equivalent to the electronic diode, utilising a superconducting transmon qubit coupled to two strongly unequal resonators terminated by mesoscopic heat baths. Our work is the experimental realisation of the spin-boson rectifier proposed by Segal and Nitzan.
We show that oscillations are excited in a complex system under the influence of the external force, if the parameters of the system experience rapid change due to the changes in its internal structure. This excitation is collision-like and does not
require any phase coherence or periodicity. The change of the internal structure may be achieved by other means which may require much lower energy expenses. The mechanism suggests control over switching oscillations on and off and may be of practical use.
One of the main objectives of equilibrium state statistical physics is to analyze which symmetries of an interacting particle system in equilibrium are broken or conserved. Here we present a general result on the conservation of translational symmetr
y for two-dimensional Gibbsian particle systems. The result applies to particles with internal degrees of freedom and fairly arbitrary interaction, including the interesting cases of discontinuous, singular, and hard core interaction. In particular we thus show the conservation of translational symmetry for the continuum Widom Rowlinson model and a class of continuum Potts type models.
In a topological quantum computer, braids of non-Abelian anyons in a (2+1)-dimensional space-time form quantum gates, whose fault tolerance relies on the topological, rather than geometric, properties of the braids. Here we propose to create and expl
oit redundant geometric degrees of freedom to improve the theoretical accuracy of topological single- and two-qubit quantum gates. We demonstrate the power of the idea using explicit constructions in the Fibonacci model. We compare its efficiency with that of the Solovay-Kitaev algorithm and explain its connection to the leakage errors reduction in an earlier construction [Phys. Rev. A 78, 042325 (2008)].
We study theoretically AB-stacked honeycomb bilayers driven by light in resonance with an infrared phonon within a tight-binding description. We characterize the phonon properties of honeycomb bilayers with group theory and construct an electronic ti
me-dependent tight-binding model for the system following photo-excitation in resonance with an infrared phonon. We adopt an atomically adiabatic approximation, introduced by Mohantya and Heller PNAS 116, 18316 (2019) to describe classically vibrating nuclei, but obtain the Floquet quasienergy spectrum associated with the time-dependent model exactly. We introduce a general scheme to disentangle the complex low-frequency Floquet spectrum to elucidate the relevant Floquet bands. As a prototypical example, we consider bilayer graphene. We find that light in the low-frequency regime can induce a bandgap in the quasienergy spectrum in the vicinity of the K points even if it is linearly polarized, in contrast with the expectations within the Born-Oppenheimer approximation and the high-frequency regime. Finally, we analyze the diabaticity of the driven electron and driven phonon processes and found contrasting effects on the autocorrelation functions at the same driving frequency: driven phonons preserve the character of the initial state while driven electrons exhibit strong deviations within a few drive cycles. The procedure outlined here can be applied to other materials to describe the combined effects of low-frequency light on phonons and electrons.
