• Abstract summary: We develop a systematic procedure to quantise canonically Hamiltonians of light-matter models of transmission lines. We prove that this apparent redundancy is required for the general derivation of the Hamiltonian for a wider class of networks. This theory enhances the quantum engineering toolbox to design complex networks with nonreciprocal elements.

• Abstract: We develop a systematic procedure to quantise canonically Hamiltonians of light-matter models of transmission lines coupled through lumped linear lossless ideal nonreciprocal elements, that break time-reversal symmetry, in a circuit QED set-up. This is achieved through a description of the distributed subsystems in terms of both flux and charge fields. We prove that this apparent redundancy is required for the general derivation of the Hamiltonian for a wider class of networks. By making use of the electromagnetic duality symmetry in transmission lines (waveguides), we provide unambiguous identification of the physical degrees of freedom, separating out the nondynamical parts. This doubled description can also treat the case of other extended lumped interactions in a regular manner that presents no spurious divergences, as we show explicitly in the example of a circulator connected to a Josephson junction through a transmission line. This theory enhances the quantum engineering toolbox to design complex networks with nonreciprocal elements.

  We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

  Multiphoton correlations in linear photonic quantum networks are governed by matrix permanents. We show that the overall multiphoton behavior of a network from its individual building blocks typically defies intuition. Our results underline new ways in which quantum correlations may be preserved in counterintuitive ways even in small-scale non-Hermitian networks.

• Quadrature nonreciprocity: unidirectional bosonic transmission without breaking time-reversal symmetry [0.0]
  We extend the notion of nonreciprocity to unidirectional bosonic transport in systems with a time-reversal symmetric Hamiltonian. In contrast to standard nonreciprocity, this unidirectional transport manifests when the mode quadratures are resolved with respect to an external reference phase. Our work opens up new avenues for signal routing and quantum-limited amplification in bosonic systems.

  We present a circuit design composed of a non-reciprocal device and Josephson junctions whose ground space is doubly degenerate and the ground states are approximate codewords of the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) code. We find that the circuit is naturally protected against the common noise channels in superconducting circuits, such as charge and flux noise, implying that it can be used for passive quantum error correction.
