– Adiabatic quantum computation
<\/strong>Adiabatic quantum computation aims to solve optimization problems more efficiently than classical algorithms, but has to deal with noise and imperfections. We numerically study unitary and dissipative dynamics of quantum spin systems to model AQC and look for smart ways to further optimize this algorithm, using innovative protocols, optimal control, and shortcuts to adiabaticity.<\/p>

<\/strong>Light is an invaluable tool for fast, non-invasive and accurate measurement of physical quantities. By exploiting NOON-like photonic states based on structured light we develop optical transducers of angular or mechanical displacements with enhanced sensing performances.<\/p>

– Monitored quantum systems
<\/strong>Quantum systems propagating through a quantum circuit interrupted by random measurements can display a phase transition in their entanglement properties that is invisible at the level of the average (mixed) state and can only be resolved using quantum trajectories. Our group actively studies these measurement-induced phase transitions in different models in the context of dissipative quantum evolutions, where the random measurements are given by the interaction with an external environment.<\/p>

– Time crystals<\/strong>
Spontaneous symmetry breaking in the thermodynamic limit gives rise to phase transitions like the one leading the formation of crystals, where space translation symmetry is broken. Recently it has been found that also time-translation symmetry can be broken: a quantum many-body interacting system in the thermodynamic limit can spontaneously generate a collective periodic response \u2014 a time crystal. We study many different realizations of this exotic phase in unitary and dissipative systems.<\/p>

– Parent Hamiltonian learning
<\/strong>Finding a Hamiltonian with local interactions that has a given many-body wave function as its ground state is a challenge of fundamental importance in quantum technologies. We tackle this problem from different angles, gaining information about the unknown Hamiltonian via delocalized evolutions and inverse quantum annealing, where we exploit the adiabatic theorem in reverse to desing an evolution in the space of local Hamiltonians.<\/p>

– Topological open systems
<\/strong>Traditional topological insulators are characterized by the presence of a non-trivial band topology which leads to an insulating bulk and symmetry-protected conducting surface states. How does dissipation change this picture? We investigate various aspects of open topological insulators, including their stability, transport and entanglement properties. Understanding how dissipation affects the topological protection of surface states is crucial for realizing practical applications in electronic devices and quantum technologies.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

– Electronic semiclassical transport
<\/strong>The electronics of novel materials features often unusual behaviors and the quantum theory is required to gain insight. Unfortunately, due to impurities, vibrations and mutual interactions, the equations are often too complex to be analyzed or simulated and some clever simplification has to be performed. Semiclassical Boltzmann transport is an excellent hybrid approach where electrons are treated as (classical) particles with well-defined positions and speeds while still been constrained to live in (quantic) energy bands.<\/p>
