• Title: Dimensional reduction of cavities with axial symmetry: A complete analysis of when an optical fiber is approximately one-dimensional
• Authors: Daniel Grimmer, Richard Lopp and Eduardo Mart\'in-Mart\'inez
• Abstract summary: We show that the ability to approximate a higher-dimensional scenario by a $1+1$ dimensional model is equivalent to making a certain change of the probe's shape in the higher-dimensional space. We explore this approximation in particular setups corresponding to quantum optics and superconducting circuits.

• Abstract: Intuition dictates that a very long, very thin cavity (e.g., a fiber optic cable) could perhaps be modeled as an approximately one dimensional system. In this paper we rigorously explore the validity of such intuition from the perspective of a localized probe coupling to a quantum field inside a cavity (e.g., an atom or an Unruh-DeWitt particle detector in a fiber optic cable). To do so, we introduce the notion of subfield decomposition in which a $D+1$ dimensional quantum field in an axially-symmetric cavity can be reduced to an infinite collection of uncoupled, massive $1+1$ dimensional fields. We show that the ability to approximate a higher-dimensional scenario by a $1+1$ dimensional model is equivalent to making a certain change of the probe's shape in the higher-dimensional space. The approximation is justified whenever this change of shape is "small enough". In this light, we identify the dynamically relevant norm by which the magnitude of these changes in probe shape ought to be judged. Finally, we explore this approximation in particular setups corresponding to quantum optics and superconducting circuits.

• Completeness Relation in Renormalized Quantum Systems [0.0]
  We show that the completeness relation for the eigenvectors, which is an essential assumption of quantum mechanics, remains true if the initial Hamiltonian, having a discrete spectrum, is modified by a delta potential. The formulation can be easily extended to $N$ center case, and the case where delta interaction is supported on curves in the plane or space.

• Dimensional Reduction in Quantum Optics [0.0]
  One-dimensional quantum optical models usually rest on the intuition of large scale separation or frozen dynamics associated with the different spatial dimensions. We show how the quantized electromagnetic field can be decomposed $-$ exactly $-$ into an infinite number of subfields living on a lower dimensional subspace. The dimensional reduction approximation then corresponds to a truncation in the number of such subfields that in turn, when considering the interaction with for instance an atom, corresponds to a modification to the atomic spatial profile.

  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.

• Particle-Number Threshold for Non-Abelian Geometric Phases [0.0]
  We introduce a particle-number threshold (PNT) that assesses a system's capabilities to perform purely geometric manipulations of quantum states. This threshold gives the minimal number of particles necessary to fully exploit a system's potential to generate non-Abelian geometric phases. We benchmark our findings on bosonic systems relevant to linear and nonlinear quantum optics.

  We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

  We study higher-dimensional traversable wormholes in the context of Rindler-AdS/CFT. We show that this wormhole can be made traversable by a double trace deformation that violates the average null energy condition (ANEC) in the bulk. We also compute a two-sided commutator that diagnoses traversability and show that, under certain conditions, the information that is transferred through the wormhole propagates with butterfly speed.

  We propose an analog simulator for discrete 2D quantum chemistry models based on cold atoms in optical lattices. We first analyze how to simulate simple models, like the discrete versions of H and H$+$, using a single fermionic atom. We then show that a single bosonic atom can mediate an effective Coulomb repulsion between two fermions, leading to the analog of molecular Hydrogen in two dimensions.

  Quantum Hall systems are characterized by the quantization of the Hall conductance -- a bulk property rooted in the topological structure of the underlying quantum states. Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
