• Title: Different theoretical aspects of the intrinsic decoherence in the Milburn formalism
• Abstract summary: We consider different theoretical aspects and simple applications of the Milburn equation which is governed by a parameter controlling what is known as intrinsic decoherence. Linear entropy, Ehrenfest relations, probability density current, the Wigner representation as well as the relation to a Lindbladian master equation are analyzed in terms of this intrinsic decoherence.

• Abstract: In this work, we consider different theoretical aspects and simple applications of the Milburn equation which is governed by a parameter controlling what is known as intrinsic decoherence. The main goal is to show some similarities also observed when external decoherence is considered. Linear entropy, Ehrenfest relations, probability density current, the Wigner representation as well as the relation to a Lindbladian master equation are analyzed in terms of this intrinsic decoherence, leading to new insights on the Milburn dynamics. Interference of two wave packets, tunneling and the bouncing ball problem are also studied under this perspective.

  We show how the competition between two measurement processes give rise to two distinct Quantum Zeno (QZ) regimes. We develop a theory based on a Gutzwiller ansatz for the wavefunction that is able to capture the structure of the Hilbert phase diagram. We show how the two QZ regimes are intimately connected to the topology of the flow of the underlying non-Hermitian Hamiltonian governing the no-click evolution.

In the presence of interactions, such topological transport can even persist for exotic paths in which the system gets arbitrarily close to the noninteracting singularity.

  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.

• Interference in quantum field theory: detecting ghosts with phases [0.0]
  We consider the interaction of two charges via a mediating quantum field and the resulting interference pattern in the Lorenz gauge. Using the Heisenberg picture, we propose that detecting relative phases or entanglement between two charges in an interference experiment is equivalent to accessing empirically the gauge degrees of freedom.

  Wave-particle duality ascribes mutually exclusive behaviors to quantum systems that cannot be observed simultaneously. Here, we use quantum information-theoretic tools to derive quantifiers of two properties, which account for the combined influence of path probability and polarization. The derived quantities can work as probes in the study of open quantum dynamics.

• On the effect of decoherence on quantum tunnelling [0.0]
  The rate of decoherence is suggested to be examined indirectly, with minimal intrusions. decoherence is understood here as a general process that does not involve any significant exchanges of energy. It is shown that the effects on tunnelling of intrinsic decoherence and of decoherence due to unitary interactions with the environment are similar but not the same.

  We study how the probability of presence of a particle is distributed between the two parts of a composite fermionic system. We prove that it is a non-perturbative property and we find out a large/small coupling constant duality. Inspired by the proof of KAM theorem, we are able to deal with this problem by introducing a cut-off in energies that eliminates these small denominators.
