- Title: Effects of spatial nonlocality versus nonlocal causality for bound
electrons in external fields
- Authors: Ivan P. Christov
- Abstract summary: We compare the effects of spatial nonlocality versus nonlocal causality for the ground state and for real-time evolution of two entangled electrons in parabolic potential in one spatial dimension.
It was found that the spatial entanglement quantified by the linear quantum entropy is predicted with good accuracy using the spatial nonlocality, parameterized naturally within the TDQMC approach.

- Abstract: Using numerically exact solution of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation
together with time-dependent quantum Monte Carlo (TDQMC) calculations we
compare the effects of spatial nonlocality versus nonlocal causality for the
ground state and for real-time evolution of two entangled electrons in
parabolic potential in one spatial dimension. It was found that the spatial
entanglement quantified by the linear quantum entropy is predicted with good
accuracy using the spatial nonlocality, parameterized naturally within the
TDQMC approach. At the same time, the nonlocal causality predicted by the exact
solution leads to only small oscillations in the quantum trajectories which
belong to the idler electron as the driven electron is subjected to a strong
high frequency electric field, without interaction between the electrons.

We consider a 1D-periodic rotating, interacting non-relativistic setup.
The quantum vacuum energy of such a system is expected to comprise two contributions: a fluctuation-induced quantum contribution and a repulsive centrifugal-like term.
We find a generic, regularization-independent behavior, where the competition between the interaction and rotation can be balanced at some critical ring-size.

We report a novel scheme on the study of decoherence of a two-mode squeezed vacuum state via its second harmonic generation signal.
Our scheme can directly extract the decoherence of the phase-sensitive quantum correlation $langle hatahatbrangle$ between two entangled modes.
This is an experimental study on the decoherence effect of a squeezed vacuum state, which has been rarely investigated.

We explore the ground state of 1D and 2D artificial atoms with up to six bosons in harmonic trap.
It is shown that the optimized value of the key variational parameter in TDQMC named nonlocal correlation length is close to the standard deviation of the Monte Carlo sample for one boson.
Also it is almost independent on the number of bosons for the 2D system thus confirming that the spatial quantum non-locality experienced by each particle is close to the spatial uncertainty exhibited by the rest of the particles.
