• Abstract: Cavity-optomechanics is an ideal platform for the generation non-Gaussian quantum states due to the anharmonic interaction between the light field and the mechanical oscillator; but exactly this interaction also impedes the preparation in pure states of the light field. In this paper we derive a driving protocol that helps to exploit the anharmonic interaction for state preparation, and that ensures that the state of the light field remains close-to-pure. This shall enable the deterministic preparation of photon Fock states or coherent superpositions thereof.

  We present a hierarchy of approximations for the equations of motion for the photonic state. We find that for the typical experimental situation of weak quantized-light-matter-coupling constant and at intensities well below the damage threshold, an explicit expression for the generated quantum light captures the high-harmonic spectrum quantitatively.

• Proposal for Observing Nonclassicality in Highly Excited Mechanical Oscillators by Single Photon Detection [0.0]
  We present a state preparation protocol which renders a mechanical oscillator with an arbitrarily large coherent amplitude in a manifestly nonclassical state. The protocol relies on coherent state preparation followed by a projective measurement of a single Raman scattered photon. The nonclassicality of the state is reflected by sub-Poissonian phonon statistics, which can be accessed by measuring the statistics of subsequently emitted Raman sideband photons.

  This work introduces a novel Pfaffian-Jastrow neural-network quantum state that includes backflow transformation based on message-passing architecture. We observe the emergence of strong pairing correlations through the opposite-spin pair distribution functions. Our findings suggest that neural-network quantum states provide a promising strategy for studying ultra-cold Fermi gases.

  We consider an ensemble of Alkali atoms that are continuously optically pumped and probed. Due to the collective scattering of photons at large optical depth, the steady state of atoms does not correspond to an uncorrelated tensor-product state. We find and characterize regimes of Raman lasing, akin to the model of a superradiant laser.

  We investigate a realistic scenario for the quantum simulation of such systems using cold Rydberg-dressed atoms in optical lattices. We perform a detailed analysis of the phase diagram at half- and incommensurate fillings, in the mean-field approximation. We furthermore study the stability of the phases with respect to temperature within the mean-field approximation.

  We use intuition to predict the formation of non-trivial photonic steady-states in one and two dimensions. We show that subradiant emitter configurations are linked to the emergence of steady-state light-localization in the driven-dissipative setting. These results shed light on the recently reported optically-defined cavities in polaritonic lattices.

  Non-Gaussian states of an optical field are important as a proposed resource in quantum information applications. We propose a novel approach involving displacement of the ancilla field into the regime where mesoscopic detectors can be used. We conclude that states with strong Wigner negativity can be prepared at high rates by this technique under experimentally attainable conditions.
