A Combinatorial Approach to Nonlocality and Contextuality
(Springer, 2015-03-01)
Article
Accés obertSo far, most of the literature on (quantum) contextuality and the Kochen– Specker theorem seems either to concern particular examples of contextuality, or be considered as quantum logic. Here, we develop a general formalism ... -
A general framework for information-work interconvertibility in the quantum regime
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2016-09)
Projecte Final de Màster Oficial
Accés obertIn this theoretical work we study three theorems that establish limitations to three basic processes in thermodynamics: an adiabatic process, an erasure process and a work extraction process. We propose a theoretical setting ... -

Almost quantum correlations
(Nature Publishing group, 2015-02-20)
Article
Accés obertQuantum theory is not only successfully tested in laboratories every day but also constitutes a robust theoretical framework: small variations usually lead to implausible consequences, such as faster-than-light communication. ... -

Projecte Final de Màster Oficial
Accés obert[ÀNGLÈS] An experimental setup for cooling a gas of potassium atoms below the Doppler limit is presented. This method is known as gray molasses cooling. It will be implemented using light blue light blue detuned with respect ... -
Applications of machine learning to studies of quantum phase transitions
(Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya, 2019-09-06)
Projecte Final de Màster Oficial
Accés obertIn the past years Machine Learning has shown to be a useful tool in quantum many-body physics to detect phase transitions. Being able to identify phases via machine learning introduces the question of how did the algorithm ... -
Bloch oscillations in optical and Zeeman lattices in the presence of spin-orbit coupling
(2016-11-18)
Article
Accés obertWe address Bloch oscillations of a spin-orbit coupled atom in periodic potentials of two types: optical and Zeeman lattices. We show that in optical lattices the spin-orbit coupling allows controlling the direction of ... -
Bose polarons at finite temperature and strong coupling
(2018-02-01)
Article
Accés obertA mobile impurity coupled to a weakly interacting Bose gas, a Bose polaron, displays several interesting effects. While a single attractive quasiparticle is known to exist at zero temperature, we show here that the spectrum ... -
Bound states in the continuum in anisotropic structures
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2017)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialWe report theoretical and experimental observation of radiationless bound states in the continuum (BIC) in waveguiding anisotropic structures. BICs may have all possible polarizations and be the only possible boundstates ... -
Bound states in the continuum in spin-orbit-coupled atomic systems
(2017-09-14)
Article
Accés restringit per política de l'editorialWe show that the interplay between spin-orbit coupling and Zeeman splitting in atomic systems can lead to the existence of bound states in the continuum (BICs) supported by trapping potentials. Such states have energies ... -
Characterizing the spatio-temporal qubit traffic of a quantum intranet aiming at modular quantum computer architectures
(Association for Computing Machinery (ACM), 2022)
Text en actes de congrés
Accés obertQuantum many-core processors are envisioned as the ultimate solution for the scalability of quantum computers. Based upon Noisy Intermediate-Scale Quantum (NISQ) chips interconnected in a sort of quantum intranet, they ... -
