• Title: Conceptual Problems in Quantum Squeezing
• Authors: Bogdan Mielnik, Jesús Fuentes,
• Abstract summary: We show that external fields might induce squeezing of canonical observables $q$ and $p$ in charged particles. We present some exactly solvable instances of this problem, observed in symmetric evolution intervals. Our findings are linked with a straightforward application of Toeplitz matrices, offering a more accessible description of the problem.

• Abstract: In studies of quantum squeezing, the emphasis is typically placed more on specific squeezed states and their evolution rather than on the dynamical operations that could simultaneously squeeze a broader range of quantum states, regardless of their initial configuration. We explore new developments in this area, facilitated by gently acting external fields which might induce squeezing of the canonical observables $q$ and $p$ in charged particles. The extensive research in this field has yielded many valuable insights, raising the question of whether there is still room for significant new contributions to our understanding. Nonetheless, we present some exactly solvable instances of this problem, observed in symmetric evolution intervals. These intervals allow for the explicit determination of the temporal dependence of external fields necessary to generate the required evolution operators. Our findings are linked with a straightforward application of Toeplitz matrices, offering a more accessible description of the problem compared to the frequently employed Ermakov-Milne invariants.

  We propose a variational approach to explore quasiparticle excitations in interacting quantum many-body systems. We benchmark the proposed algorithm via numerical simulations performed on the one-dimension transverse field Ising chain. We show that the localized quasiparticle states constructed with VQE contain accessible information on the full band of quasiparticles.

  We investigate the completion of a nonadiabatic evolution into a shortcut to adiabaticity for a quantum field confined within a one-dimensional cavity containing two movable mirrors. We achieve a smooth extension of the Moore functions that implements the STA. We draw attention to the existence of a comparable problem within nonrelativistic quantum mechanics.

• Problems with Modified Commutators [0.0]
  We show how an apparently simple assumption can generate generalised uncertainty relations without modifying the basic form of the canonical Heisenberg algebra. This assumption has huge implications for the quantisation of space-time and, therefore, gravity. We argue that these proposals should be taken seriously, as a potential solution to the pathologies that plague minimum length models based on modified commutators.

• Fermi two-atom problem: non-perturbative approach via relativistic quantum information and algebraic quantum field theory [0.0]
  We revisit the famous Fermi two-atom problem, which concerns how relativistic causality impacts atomic transition probabilities. The problem has sparked different analyses from many directions and angles since the proposed solution by Buchholz and Yngvason (1994). We show that current tools in relativistic quantum information, combined with algebraic approach to quantum field theory, are now powerful enough to provide fuller and cleaner analysis of the Fermi two-atom problem for arbitrary curved spacetimes in a completely non-perturbative manner.

  Quantum computing may offer the opportunity to simulate strongly-interacting field theories, such as quantum chromodynamics, with physical time evolution. As with present-day calculations, quantum computation strategies still require the restriction to a finite system size. We quantify the volume effects for various $1+1$D Minkowski-signature quantities and show that these can be a significant source of systematic uncertainty.
