Thermal screening and critical scaling of quantum energy teleportation in a harmonic chain

We develop a finite-temperature Gaussian-state formulation of quantum energy teleportation in the one-dimensional harmonic chain. For Gibbs states, the optimized measurement-feedback protocol reduces to thermal two-point functions. In the single-site protocol, the extracted energy is governed by a single correlator, which makes the thermodynamic and near-critical limits analytically tractable. At fixed finite temperature, the extracted energy is exponentially screened with distance and is controlled by a thermal correlation length for both critical and non-critical $\alpha$. In the zero-temperature critical limit taken after the thermodynamic limit, we derive the exact asymptotic law $E_{\mathrm{ext}}\sim d^{-4}$. Numerical results confirm both regimes and resolve the crossover responsible for the apparent drift of the effective decay exponent at intermediate distances. We also analyze squeezed Gaussian measurements and show that they modify the extraction prefactor: $p-$squeezing enhances the extracted energy, whereas $q-$squeezing suppresses it, without changing the large-distance scaling.

Exact Criterion for Ground-State Overlap Dominance after Quantum Quenches

It was recently conjectured and verified for the transverse-field Ising model [Phys. Rev. B 113, 165102 (2026)] that, after a sudden quench within the same equilibrium phase, the initial ground state has its largest overlap with the final ground state. We show that this phase-based criterion is generally false, even in translationally invariant free-fermion systems. For Hamiltonians that factorize into independent $2\times 2$ momentum sectors, we derive the exact necessary-and-sufficient condition for ground-state overlap dominance: the initial and final sector Bloch vectors must have positive dot product for every momentum. This result proves the conjecture in classes where same-phase quenches enforce this geometric condition, but gives explicit same-phase counterexamples in Kitaev chains, where excited final eigenstates can dominate the overlap distribution. We further show that the same obstruction controls real-time Fisher-zero crossings, allowing dynamical quantum phase transitions without crossing an equilibrium phase boundary.

Nontrivial bounds on extractable energy in quantum energy teleportation for gapped manybody systems with a unique ground state

We establish an exponentially decaying upper bound on the average energy that can be extracted in quantum energy teleportation (QET) protocols executed on finite-range {gapped} lattice systems possessing a unique ground state. Under mild regularity assumptions on the Hamiltonian and uniform operator-norm bounds on the local measurement operators, there exist positive constants $C$ and $μ$ (determined by the spectral gap, interaction range and local operator norms) such that for any local measurement performed in a region $A$ and any outcome-dependent local unitaries implemented in a disjoint region $B$ separated by distance $d=\operatorname{dist}(A,B)$ one has $|E_A-E_B|\le C\,e^{-μd}$. The bound is nonperturbative, explicit up to model-dependent constants, and follows from the variational characterization of the ground state combined with exponential clustering implied by the spectral gap. We emphasize that the constants deteriorate as the gap closes (equivalently, as the correlation length diverges), so the estimate is intended for the gapped regime.

Aspects of Quantum Energy Teleportation

In this work, we explore quantum energy teleportation (QET) protocols, focusing on their behavior at finite temperatures , in ground and excited states. We analyze the role of entanglement as a resource for QET, particularly in thermal states, and compare the performance of QET across these initial states. We then introduce a method to extract ground-state energy through a protocol that employs only quantum measurements, local operations, and classical communication (LOCC), without requiring the ground state to be quantum correlated either through entanglement or quantum discord. To illustrate this, we propose a minimal model comprising two interacting qubits. These findings indicate that, in addition to the established QET framework where quantum correlation serves as a resource, it is possible to extract energy from an product ground state. This broadens the scope of QET's applicability across diverse quantum systems.

Does Entanglement Correlation in Ground State Guarantee Quantum Energy Teleportation?

Although extraction of energy from the ground state is forbidden, one can utilize Quantum Energy Teleportation (QET) protocol for energy extraction -- a two-step protocol involving quantum measurements followed by LOCC. This is an unique method to ``extract energy from ground states'' of quantum systems. QET requires some correlation in the ground state, and entanglement correlation plays a crucial roles as a resource. The general belief is that if the ground state is quantum-correlated via entanglement for two different sites in a quantum system, and if we perform measurements on one of the sites, we can find an LOCC for the other site to successfully accomplish QET. In this paper, we show that this belief may not be true in the case of the Toric Code. We demonstrate this by performing a PVM measurements on spins in the Toric Code. Based on the measurement outcomes, we found that there is no LOCC for successful QET.
