Invertibility as a witness of Markovianity of the quantum dynamical maps

Markovianity of the quantum open system processes is a topic of the considerable current interest. Typically, invertibility is assumed to be non-essential for Markovianity of the open-quantum-system dynamical maps. Nevertheless, in this paper we distinguish a class of physically important dynamical maps (processes) for which invertibility is a necessary condition for Markovianity. Since every quantum-state tomography directly provides information on invertibility of the map, no optimization procedure is necessary for determining non-Markovianity regarding the considered class of dynamical processes. On this basis we are able to provide a systematic insight and to distinguish mutual relations of the various approaches to quantum Markovianity. Notably, for the processes out of the considered class of dynamical maps, various relations are allowed between divisibility, invertibility and Markovianity of the dynamical maps.

Dynamical stability of the weakly nonharmonic propeller-shaped planar Brownian rotator

Dynamical stability is a prerequisite for control and functioning of desired nano-machines. We utilize the Caldeira-Leggett master equation to investigate dynamical stability of molecular cogwheels modeled as a rigid, propeller-shaped planar rotator. In order to match certain expected realistic physical situations, we consider a weakly nonharmonic external potential for the rotator. Two methods for investigating stability are used. First, we employ a quantum-mechanical counterpart of the so-called "First passage time" method. Second, we investigate time dependence of the standard deviation of the rotator for both the angle and angular momentum quantum observables. A perturbation-like procedure is introduced and implemented in order to provide the closed set of differential equations for the moments. Extensive analysis is performed for different combinations of the values of system parameters. The two methods are, in a sense, mutually complementary. Appropriate for the short time behavior, the First passage time exhibits a numerically-relevant dependence only on the damping factor as well as on the rotator size. On the other hand, the standard deviations for both the angle and angular momentum observables exhibit strong dependence on the parameter values for both short and long time intervals. Contrary to our expectations, the time decrease of the standard deviations is found for certain parameter regimes. In addition, for certain parameter regimes nonmonotonic dependence on the rotator size is observed for the standard deviations and for the damping of the oscillation amplitude.

Quantum Brownian oscillator for the stock market

We pursue the quantum-mechanical challenge to the efficient market hypothesis for the stock market by employing the quantum Brownian motion model. We utilize the quantum Caldeira-Leggett master equation as a possible phenomenological model for the stock-market-prices fluctuations while introducing the external harmonic field for the Brownian particle. Two quantum regimes are of particular interest: the exact regime as well as the approximate regime of the pure decoherence ("recoilless") limit of the Caldeira-Leggett equation. By calculating the standard deviation and the kurtosis for the particle's position observable, we can detect deviations of the quantum-mechanical behavior from the classical counterpart, which bases the efficient market hypothesis. By varying the damping factor, temperature as well as the oscillator's frequency, we are able to provide interpretation of different economic scenarios and possible situations that are not normally recognized by the efficient market hypothesis. Hence we recognize the quantum Brownian oscillator as a possibly useful model for the realistic behavior of stock prices.

Dynamical stability of the one-dimensional rigid Brownian rotator: The role of the rotator's spatial size and shape

We investigate dynamical stability of a single propeller-like shaped molecular cogwheel modelled as the fixed-axis rigid rotator. In the realistic situations, rotation of the finite-size cogwheel is subject of the envi- ronmentally-induced Brownian-motion effect that we describe by utilizing the quantum Caldeira-Leggett master equation, in the weak-coupling limit. Assuming the initially narrow (classical-like) standard deviations for the an- gle and the angular momentum of the rotator, we investigate dynamics of the first and second moments depending on the size, i.e., on the number of blades of both the free rotator as well as of the rotator in the external har- monic field. The larger the standard deviations, the less stable (i.e. less pre- dictable) rotation. We detect the absence of the simple and straightforward rules for utilizing the rotator's stability. Instead, a number of the size-related criteria appear whose combinations may provide the optimal rules for the ro- tator dynamical stability and possibly control. In the realistic situations, the quantum-mechanical corrections, albeit individually small, may effectively prove non-negligible, and also revealing subtlety of the transition from the quantum to the classical dynamics of the rotator. As to the latter, we detect a strong size-dependence of the transition to the classical dynamics beyond the quantum decoherence process.

New strategy for suppressing decoherence in quantum computation

Controlable strong interaction of the qubit's bath with an external system (i.e. with the bath's environment) allows for choosing the conditions under which the decoherence of the qubit's states can be substantially decreased (in a certain limit: completely avoided). By "substantially decreased" we mean that the correlations which involve the bath's states prove negligible, while the correlations between the qubit's and the environment's states can be made ineffective during a comparatively long time interval. So, effectively, one may choose the conditions under which, for sufficiently long time interval, the initial state of "qubit + bath" remains unchanged, thus removing any kind of the errors. The method has been successfully employed in the (simplified) model of the solid-state-nuclear quantum computer (proposed by Kane).
