Here we show that the Floquet Hamiltonian of the integrable Lieb-Liniger model in presence of a linear potential with a periodic time-dependent strength is instead integrable and its quasi-energies can be determined using the Bethe ansatz approach. We discuss various aspects of the dynamics of the system at stroboscopic times and we also propose a possible experimental realization of the periodically driven tilting in terms of a shaken rotated ring potential.

We show that the sign of the delta-T noise is generically determined by the nature of the dominating tunneling process. More specifically, the sign is governed by the leading charge-tunneling operator\u2019s scaling dimension. We clarify the relation between the sign of delta-T noise and the quantum exchange statistics of tunneling quasiparticles.We find that, for infinite systems hosting chiral channels with local interactions (e.g., quantumHall or quantum spin Hall edges), when the delta-T noise is negative, the tunneling particles are boson-like, revealing their tendency towards bunching. However, the opposite is not true: Boson-like particles do not necessarily produce negative delta-T noise. Importantly, the bosonic nature of particles generating the negative delta-T is not necessarily intrinsic, but can be induced by the interactions. This, in particular, implies that negative delta-T noise for tunneling between the edge states cannot serve as a smoking gun for detecting \u201cintrinsic anyons\u201d. We also establish a connection between the delta-T noise and the temperature derivative of the Nyquist-Johnson (thermal) noise in interacting systems, both governed by the same scaling dimensions. As a demonstration of the above statements, we study tunneling between two interacting quantum spin Hall edges. With bosonization and renormalization-group techniques, we find that many-body interactions can generate negative delta-T noise for both direct tunneling through a point contact and in Kondo exchange tunneling via a localized spin. In both these setups, we show that the noise can become negative at sufficiently low temperatures, when interactions renormalize the tunneling to favor boson-like pair-tunneling of electrons rather than single-electron tunneling. Our findings show that delta-T noise can be used to probe the nature of collective excitations in interacting one-dimensional systems.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-434599c e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"434599c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6dc55c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"d6dc55c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9f19be1 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"9f19be1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-45c1fc1 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"45c1fc1\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-97770f4 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"97770f4\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-92c5754 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"92c5754\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Costanza_toninelli.jpg\" alt=\"Costanza toninelli\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e9a2c27 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e9a2c27\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"05-04-2023\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">13\/04\/2023<\/h3><p>h15:00 \u2013 Aula Caianiello<br \/>Dipartimento di Fisica\u00a0<\/p><p>Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ac25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c%40thread.tacv2\/1680812967224?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%228a1c80cf-fb4a-40c2-a476-0d4d17ab3057%22%7d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a><\/p><p>In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web browser.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-04fd84f e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"04fd84f\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4e14e54 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4e14e54\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"alessandro-miano\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Costanza Toninelli<\/h3><h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">(CNR-INO, Italy)<\/h3><h5 id=\"quantum-measurement-and-control-of-mechanical-motion-at-room-temperature\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Single Organic Molecules for Photonic Quantum Technologies<\/b><\/h5><p><strong>Abstract<br \/><\/strong>I review recent scientific work performed at the University of Catania on the dynamics of superconducting architectures in the ultrastrong coupling (USC) regime.<\/p><p>First, I will address the problem of the detection of virtual photons from the ground-state of a USC system. This is a long-standing problem which still awaits experimental demonstration. We show that combining an unconventional design of the device, state-of-the-art superinductor technology, and advanced control techniques one may convert virtual photons to real ones, which can be detected, with nearly 100% efficiency, very large fidelity. Out protocol being resilient to a strong measurement backaction, it allows to integrate a relatively simple measurement procedure allowing to discriminate virtual from thermal photons.<\/p><p>Then, I will highlight new results on Quantum operations for modular computing with USC systems. Solid-state systems made of artificial atoms (AA) and cavity modes in the strong coupling (SC) regime are a well-established architecture for quantum computing leveraging the ability of manipulating individual excitations. The clock rate is fixed by the interaction strength suggesting that in the USC regime ultrafast quantum operations may be performed. However, faster dynamics has a cost since USC breaks conservation of the number of excitations leading to a series of new fundamental effects which are unfortunately detrimental to quantum state processing.<\/p><p>We study strategies for suppressing the impact of such errors in a system of AAs USC-coupled to a quantized harmonic mode. We introduce a class of adiabatic protocols using the mode as a virtual quantum bus and show that substantial speedup together with high fidelity may be demonstrated for selected key operations, such as state transfer between remote units, state swapping, bi- and multi-partite entanglement generation and sharing. We derived a suitable low-energy description of the problem and found analytically a control strategy which suppresses errors down to ~10-6 for state transfer. These results were improved by optimal control numerical techniques and their robustness against parametric fluctuations and noise was shown.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bb95bd8 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"bb95bd8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-eb2729c e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"eb2729c\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6b7130 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"d6b7130\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9d3eff0 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"9d3eff0\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-218587b e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"218587b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-10ae429 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"10ae429\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/nicola_lo_gullo.jpg\" alt=\"nicola lo gullo\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0a0ec56 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0a0ec56\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"05-04-2023\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">05\/04\/2023<\/h3><p>h15:00 \u2013 Aula Caianiello<br \/>Dipartimento di Fisica\u00a0<\/p><p>Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ac25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c%40thread.tacv2\/1679666040253?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%229538f0fd-4aaa-4050-aec8-ee5d049045ce%22%7d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a><\/p><p>In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web browser.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5c425d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c5c425d\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3c8c8be elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3c8c8be\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"alessandro-miano\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nicola Lo Gullo<\/h3><h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">(University of Calabria, Italy)<\/h3><h5 id=\"quantum-measurement-and-control-of-mechanical-motion-at-room-temperature\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><b>Enhancing\u00a0<\/b>quit<b>\u00a0<\/b><strong>readout with Bayesian Learning<\/strong><\/h5><p><strong>Abstract<br \/><\/strong>In recent years there has been an increasing interest in quantum computing from non-pundits, companies and researchers from fields other than quantum computing.<br \/>This is undoubtedly due to the deployment of quantum computing resources to research institutions and companies, which fostered the search for new applications of quantum computing.<br \/>Currently available quantum processing units (QPUs) are typically small and are plagued by noise. Two main solutions are being investigated to improve them: on the one hand there is an ongoing technological effort in scaling up these devices controlling the noise and, at the same time, develop error correction codes which will make the QPUs robust to errors; on the other hand there are efforts in making the current small and noisy devices useful. Quantum error mitigation is a class of techniques aiming at reducing the errors in running codes on quantum computers.<br \/>Within this framework we introduce an efficient and accurate readout measurement scheme for single and multi-qubit states. Our method uses Bayesian inference to build an assignment probability distribution for each qubit state based on a reference characterization of the detector response functions. This allows us to account for system imperfections and thermal noise within the assignment of the computational basis. We benchmark our protocol on a quantum device with five superconducting qubits, testing initial state preparation for single and two-qubit states and an application of the Bernstein-Vazirani algorithm executed on five qubits. Our method shows a substantial reduction of the readout error and promises advantages for near-term and future quantum devices.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a4b7c46 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a4b7c46\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8e99194 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"8e99194\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e57ebc9 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"e57ebc9\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-afa5993 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"afa5993\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cace33c e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"cace33c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-218\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/halima_ahmad.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8f80ef8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8f80ef8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"05-04-2023\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">28\/02\/2023<\/h3><p>h15:00 \u2013 Aula Caianiello<br \/>Dipartimento di Fisica\u00a0<\/p><p>Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ac25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c%40thread.tacv2\/1677148567249?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%228a1c80cf-fb4a-40c2-a476-0d4d17ab3057%22%7d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a><\/p><p>In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web browser.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1af2b67 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1af2b67\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8fc62a3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8fc62a3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"alessandro-miano\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Halima Giovanna Ahmad<\/h3><h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">(University of Naples Federico II, Italy)<\/h3><h5 id=\"quantum-measurement-and-control-of-mechanical-motion-at-room-temperature\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Novel tuning approaches for unconventional superconducting qubits<\/strong><\/h5><p><strong>Abstract<br \/><\/strong>In the last decades, the search for novel quantum platforms has increased due to the request for high-performing quantum computing.

A general teleportation approach exploits entanglement between two photons to convey information between two destinations without the information physically existing in the path between them. Indirect (Bell) measurements, between one of the entangled photons and a state one desires to transmit, then allows the disembodied information to be conveyed elsewhere, moderated by classical communication. Physically developing such a protocol is of interest across a variety of quantum information tasks as it forms a salient toolbox from quantum computing to security and quantum networks, sparking much research into the practical implementation thereof. This has been demonstrated with a variety of approaches ranging from NMR to solid state systems, but the highest dimension teleported is limited to three and requires an extra (ancillary) photon pair for every dimensional increase. A trade-off for higher dimensions has been setups that are difficult to scale and resource intensive if further dimensions are desired.<\/p><p>In an effort towards practically feasible teleportation of systems such as images, multi-level atoms or molecules, we consider side-stepping the scalability issue with and explore a non-linear approach in place of the traditional linear implementation for the entangling Bell step. With this, we experimentally show high-dimensional teleportation exceeding 10 dimensions for twisted light as well as other spatial states with fidelities beyond the classical limit. The results open the way towards implementing teleportation in a practically useful way with an encouraging paradigm allowing versatile and high-capacity optical quantum communication protocols for on-demand states.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4328c64 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"4328c64\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-72ee573 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"72ee573\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27c7c40 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"27c7c40\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-942dfde e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"942dfde\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0c16f87 e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0c16f87\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-434\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Alexandre-Dauphin.jpg\" alt=\"Alexandre Dauphin\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f500c48 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"f500c48\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"05-04-2023\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">25\/11\/2022<\/h3><p>h11:30 \u2013 Aula Caianiello<br \/>Dipartimento di Fisica\u00a0<\/p><p>Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ac25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c%40thread.tacv2\/1668691037519?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22b4cb0a72-f67c-4cf2-a0a1-f9ed17db29f5%22%7d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ac25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c%40thread.tacv2\/1668691037519?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%22b4cb0a72-f67c-4cf2-a0a1-f9ed17db29f5%22%7d\">link<\/a><\/p><p>In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web browser.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c8c1f95 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"c8c1f95\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-af0b8b2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"af0b8b2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"patrick-cameron\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alexandre Dauphin<\/h3><h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">(The Institute of Photonic Sciences \u2013 ICFO, Spain)<\/h3><h5 id=\"quantum-measurement-and-control-of-mechanical-motion-at-room-temperature\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Self-trapped polarons and topological defects in a topological Mott insulator\u00a0<\/strong><\/h5><p><strong>Abstract<br \/><\/strong>In the last decades, topological insulators have attracted great interest and also have promising applications in topics such as metrology or quantum computation. These exotic materials go beyond the standard classification of phases of matter: they are insulating in their bulk, conducting on their edges, and characterized by a global topological invariant, in contrast to a local order parameter as in the conventional Ginzburg-Landau theory of phases of matter.<\/p><p>Such topological phases have been experimentally observed in condensed matter systems and more recently in quantum simulators. The latter are very versatile platforms that allow one to simulate a material with another quantum system in a very controllable environment. In the case of topological insulators, this degree of control is particularly promising to unveil the mechanisms leading to these phases.<\/p><p>The quantum simulation of these exotic materials typically relies on the generation of artificial gauge fields. However, recent studies have shown that topological phases can also emerge from particle interactions. The latter mechanism leads to the concept of interaction-induced topological phases, in which topology is acquired through a spontaneous symmetry breaking process. The interplay of the spontaneous symmetry breaking with the global topological properties can lead to very interesting effects.<\/p><p>In this talk, I will discuss how such interplay can lead to new strongly-correlated topological effects in a 2D material. In particular, I will show how interactions can localize particles in the insulating bulk at incommensurate fillings, leading to self-trapped polarons. Furthermore at higher filling, the interacting nature of the topological insulator gives rise to domains in the bulk. Interestingly, the nontrivial topology associated to each domain leads to the appearance of protected conducting states in the bulk, localized at the domain boundaries. Finally, I will discuss the possibility of quantum simulating such phases with cold laser-excited Rydberg atoms in an optical lattice.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f676add e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f676add\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9093a6b elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"9093a6b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-79e4fab e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"79e4fab\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-22e6926 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"22e6926\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c5d6b7e e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c5d6b7e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-435\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/marcello_dalmonte.jpg\" alt=\"marcello dalmonte\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-0f06b4a elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"0f06b4a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"05-04-2023\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">11\/11\/2022<\/h3><p>h11:00 \u2013 Aula Caianiello <br \/>Dipartimento di Fisica\u00a0<\/p><p>Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19%3ac25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c%40thread.tacv2\/1667901069907?context=%7b%22Tid%22%3a%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22%2c%22Oid%22%3a%2248e8b7a6-3dbb-497d-aaf3-ccc8f0441ead%22%7d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">lin<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19:c25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c@thread.tacv2\/1657093833328?context=%7B%22Tid%22:%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22,%22Oid%22:%2248e8b7a6-3dbb-497d-aaf3-ccc8f0441ead%22%7D\">k<\/a><\/p><p>In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web browser.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-214bec1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"214bec1\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3df0382 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3df0382\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Marcello Dalmonte<\/h3><h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">(Abdus Salam ICTP Trieste, Italy)<\/h3><h5 id=\"quantum-measurement-and-control-of-mechanical-motion-at-room-temperature\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Data mining the output of quantum simulators \u2013 from critical behavior to algorithmic complexity<\/strong><\/h5><p><strong>Abstract<br \/><\/strong>Recent experiments with quantum simulators and noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices have demonstrated unparalleled capabilities of probing many-body wave functions, via directly probing them at the single quantum level via projective measurements.

The core idea of this programme is the fact that the output of quantum simualtors and computers can be construed as a very high-dimensional manifold. Such manifold can be characterised via basic topological concepts, in particular, by their intrinsic dimension. Exploiting state of the art tools in non-parametric learning, I will discuss theoretical results for both classical and quantum many-body spin systems that illustrate how data structures undergo structural transitions whenever the underlying physical system does, and display universal (critical) behavior in both classical and quantum mechanical cases. I will conclude with remarks on the applicability of our theoretical framework to synthetic quantum systems (quantum simulators and quantum computers), and emphasize its potential to provide a direct, scalable measure of Kolmogorov complexity of output states.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a206c4d e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"a206c4d\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5c18409 elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"5c18409\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7e6e99b e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"7e6e99b\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-78e4266 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"78e4266\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-53ef91a e-transform elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"53ef91a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;px&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_tablet&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;_transform_rotateZ_effect_mobile&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;deg&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]}}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-93\" src=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/alioscia-hamma.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-881aed1 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"881aed1\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"05-04-2023\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">02\/11\/2022<\/h3><p>h15:00 \u2013 Aula Caianiello<br \/>Dipartimento di Fisica\u00a0<\/p><p>Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/teams.microsoft.com\/l\/meetup-join\/19:c25e08ba761c466a88d2f1f081763f1c@thread.tacv2\/1657093833328?context=%7B%22Tid%22:%222fcfe26a-bb62-46b0-b1e3-28f9da0c45fd%22,%22Oid%22:%2248e8b7a6-3dbb-497d-aaf3-ccc8f0441ead%22%7D\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a><\/p><p>In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web browser.<\/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<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fb6a4c1 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"fb6a4c1\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-36585c8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"36585c8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Alioscia Hamma<\/h3><h3 id=\"lorenzo-magrini-university-of-wien\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">(University of Naples Federico II, Italy)<\/h3><h5 id=\"quantum-measurement-and-control-of-mechanical-motion-at-room-temperature\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stabilizer Renyi Entropy and Quantum Complexity<\/strong><\/h5><p><strong>Abstract<br \/><\/strong>Quantum physics is inherently different from classical physics and this difference comes in two layers.

For multiple frequencies, we detect that the AC response of the circuit is synchronised with the microwave tone at frequency f, and the corresponding emergence of flat steps in the DC response with current 2ef, equal to the transport of a Cooper pair per tone period. This work sheds new light on phase-charge duality, omnipresent in condensed matter physics, and extends it to Josephson circuits. Looking forward, it opens a broad range of possibilities for new experiments in the field of circuit quantum electrodynamics and is an important step towards the long sought closure of the quantum metrology electrical triangle.<\/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\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>20\/06\/2023 h 9:00\u2013 ex SALA RIUNIONI (EX SOFTEL) Ed. 3 \u2013 Piano 1 a via Claudio\u00a0 Online:\u00a0Online participation via MS Teams\u00a0link In case your access is denied, log out from your institutional account and open MS Teams in your web &hellip;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"> <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/academic-year-2022-2023\/\"> <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Academic year 2022\/2023<\/span> Leggi tutto &raquo;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-400","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/400","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=400"}],"version-history":[{"count":39,"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/400\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":681,"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/400\/revisions\/681"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.qst.unina.it\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=400"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
