• Abstract summary: We investigate the occurrence of direct and dual Shapiro steps for a Josephson junction coupled to a finite-size transmission line resonator. For the dual case, we do not assume the (approximate) charge-phase duality, but include the full multi-band dynamics for the Josephson junction. We show how the dual steps are very sensitive to these fluctuations and identify the key physical parameters for the junction and the transmission line.

• Abstract: We investigate the occurrence of direct and dual Shapiro steps for a Josephson junction coupled to a finite-size transmission line resonator. We treat both problems through a circuit QED approach with a large, but finite number of photon modes. For the dual case, we do not assume the (approximate) charge-phase duality, but include the full multi-band dynamics for the Josephson junction. Mean-field equations within such Hamiltonian approach reproduce the result obtained through a dissipative classical equation when the number of transmission line modes is large enough. To account for quantum and thermal fluctuations, we go beyond the mean-field treatment within a truncated Wigner approach. The fluctuations are shown to modify both the direct and the dual steps. We show how the dual steps are very sensitive to these fluctuations and identify the key physical parameters for the junction and the transmission line controlling their robustness, which is essential for applications to close the quantum metrological triangle.

  We study the transmission of light through an ensemble of two-level emitters in a one-dimensional geometry. We find in the thermodynamic limit the emergence of phase separation with a critical value that depends on the degree of spatial order. We conclude that a large class of effective one-dimensional systems can be effectively modeled using a unidirectional waveguide approach.

  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.

  Tunable two-qubit couplers offer an avenue to mitigate errors in multiqubit superconducting quantum processors. Most couplers operate in a narrow frequency band and target specific couplings, such as the spurious $ZZ$ interaction. We introduce a superconducting coupler that alleviates these limitations by suppressing all two-qubit interactions with an exponentially large on-off ratio.

  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.
