Abstract: Ultra-short pulses propagating in nonlinear nanophotonic waveguides can simultaneously leverage both temporal and spatial field confinement, promising a route towards single-photon nonlinearities in an all-photonic platform. In this multimode quantum regime, however, faithful numerical simulations of pulse dynamics na\"ively require a representation of the state in an exponentially large Hilbert space. Here, we employ a time-domain, matrix product state (MPS) representation to enable efficient simulations by exploiting the entanglement structure of the system. In order to extract physical insight from these simulations, we develop an algorithm to unravel the MPS quantum state into constituent temporal supermodes, enabling, e.g., access to the phase-space portraits of arbitrary pulse waveforms. As a demonstration, we perform exact numerical simulations of a Kerr soliton in the quantum regime. We observe the development of non-classical Wigner-function negativity in the solitonic mode as well as quantum corrections to the semiclassical dynamics of the pulse. A similar analysis of $\chi^{(2)}$ simultons reveals a unique entanglement structure between the fundamental and second harmonic. Our approach is also readily compatible with quantum trajectory theory, allowing full quantum treatment of propagation loss and decoherence. We expect this work to establish the MPS technique as part of a unified engineering framework for the emerging field of broadband quantum photonics.

Simulating Non-Markovian Dynamics in Multidimensional Electronic Spectroscopy via Quantum Algorithm [0.0]
We present a general approach for the simulation of the optical response of multi-chromophore systems in a structured environment. A key step of the procedure is the pseudomode embedding of the system-environment problem resulting in a finite set of quantum states evolving. This formulation is then solved by a collision model integrated into a quantum algorithm designed to simulate linear and nonlinear response functions.

Nonlinear dynamical Casimir effect and Unruh entanglement in waveguide QED with parametrically modulated coupling [83.88591755871734]
We study theoretically an array of two-level qubits moving relative to a one-dimensional waveguide. When the frequency of this motion approaches twice the qubit resonance frequency, it induces parametric generation of photons and excitation of the qubits. We develop a comprehensive general theoretical framework that incorporates both perturbative diagrammatic techniques and a rigorous master-equation approach.

The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

Waveguide quantum optomechanics: parity-time phase transitions in ultrastrong coupling regime [125.99533416395765]
We show that the simplest set-up of two qubits, harmonically trapped over an optical waveguide, enables the ultrastrong coupling regime of the quantum optomechanical interaction. The combination of the inherent open nature of the system and the strong optomechanical coupling leads to emerging parity-time (PT) symmetry. The $mathcalPT$ phase transition drives long-living subradiant states, observable in the state-of-the-art waveguide QED setups.
