The interplay between disorder and interactions is a "leit-motiv" of
condensed matter physics, since it constitutes the driving mechanism of the
metal-insulator transition. Bose-Einstein condensates in optical potentials are
proving to be powerful tools to quantum simulate disordered systems. We will
review the main experimental and theoretical results achieved in the last few
years in this rapidly developing field.

We analyze the problem of optimal adiabatic passage through a quantum
critical point. We show that to minimize the number of defects the tuning
parameter should be changed as a power-law in time. The optimal power is
proportional to the logarithm of the total passage time multiplied by universal
critical exponents characterizing the phase transition. We support our results
by the general scaling analysis and by explicit calculations for the transverse
field Ising model.

We propose a method to prepare a sample of fermionic atoms in a
three-dimensional (3D) optical lattice at unprecedentedly low temperatures and
uniform filling factors. The process involves adiabatic loading of atoms into
multiple energy bands of an optical lattice followed by a filtering stage
whereby atoms from all but the ground band are removed. Of critical importance
is the use of a non-harmonic trapping potential, taken here to be the radial
profile of a high-order Laguerre-Gaussian laser beam, to provide external
confinement for the atoms. For realistic experimental parameters, this
procedure should produce samples with temperatures $\sim10^{-3}$ of the Fermi
temperature. This would allow the investigation of the low-temperature phase
diagram of the Fermi-Hubbard model as well as the initialization of a
high-fidelity quantum register.

We show how to apply the quantum kinetic theory in an inhomogeneous system
like harmonically trapped Bose condensate. We calculate the temperature
dependence of the critical number of particles by a quantum kinetic theory
within the Hartree-Fock approximation and find that there is a dramatic
increase in the critical number of particles as the condensation point is
approached. Our results support the experimental result which was obtained well
below the condensation temperature. The nature of the temperature dependence of
the critical number obtained from the quantum kinetic theory is the same as
obtained from the scaling theory.

We construct the invisible quantum barrier which represents the phenomenon of
quantum reflection using the available data. We use the Abel equation to invert
the data. The resulting invisible quantum barrier is double-valued in both
axes. We study this invisible barrier in the case of atom and Bose-Einstein
Condensate reflection from a solid silicon surface. A time-dependent,
one-spatial dimension Gross-Pitaevskii equation is solved for the BEC case. We
found that the BEC behaves very similarly to the single atom except for size
effects, which manifest themselves in a maximum in the reflectivity at small
distances from the wall. The effect of the atom-atom interaction on the BEC
reflection and correspondingly on the invisible barrier is found to be
appreciable at low velocities and comparable to the finite size effect. The
trapping of ultracold atom or BEC between two walls is discussed.

The description of spontaneous symmetry breaking that underlies the
connection between classically ordered objects in the thermodynamic limit and
their individual quantum mechanical building blocks is one of the cornerstones
of modern condensed matter theory and has found applications in many different
areas of physics. The theory of spontaneous symmetry breaking however, is
inherently an equilibrium theory, which does not address the dynamics of
quantum systems in the thermodynamic limit. Here, we will use the example of a
particular antiferromagnetic model system to show that the presence of a
so-called thin spectrum of collective excitations with vanishing energy -one of
the well-known characteristic properties shared by all symmetry-breaking
objects- can allow these objects to also spontaneously break time-translation
symmetry in the thermodynamic limit. As a result, that limit is found to be
able, not only to reduce quantum mechanical equilibrium averages to their
classical counterparts, but also to turn individual-state quantum dynamics into
classical physics. In the process, we find that the dynamical description of
spontaneous symmetry breaking can also be used to shed some light on the
possible origins of Born's rule. We conclude by describing an experiment on a
condensate of exciton polaritons which could potentially be used to
experimentally test the proposed mechanism.

There has been a recent resurgence of experimental efforts to quantitatively
determine the phase diagram of the Bose Hubbard model by carefully analyzing
experiments with ultracold bosonic atoms on an optical lattice. In many
realizations of these experiments, the hopping amplitudes are not homogeneous
throughout the lattice, but instead, the lattice has an anisotropy where
hopping along one direction is not exactly equal to hopping along a
perpendicular direction. In this contribution, we examine how an anisotropy in
the hopping matrix elements affects the Mott lobes of the Bose Hubbard model.
For weak anisotropy, we find the phase diagram is only slightly modified when
expressed in terms of the average hopping, while for strong anisotropy, one
expects to ultimately see dimensional crossover effects.

Title: Teaching superfluidity at the introductory level

Comments: This paper was written to compensate for the lack of any useful

interest to people involved in superfluid research

Standard introductory modern physics textbooks do not exactly dwell on
superfluidity in 4He. Typically, Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) is mentioned
in the context of an ideal Bose gas, followed by the statement that BEC happens
in 4He and that the ground state of 4He exhibits many interesting properties
such as having zero viscosity. Not only does this approach not explain in any
way why 4He becomes a superfluid, it denies students the opportunity to learn
about the far reaching consequences of energy gaps as they develop in both
superfluids and superconductors. We revisit superfluid 4He by starting with
Feynman's explanation of superfluidity based on Bose statistics as opposed to
BEC, and we present exercises for the students that allow them to arrive at a
very accurate estimate of the superfluid transition temperature and of the
energy gap separating the ground state from the first excited state. This paper
represents a self-contained account of superfluidity, which can be covered in
one or two lessons in class.

We study quantum control of the full hyperfine manifold in the
ground-electronic state of alkali atoms based on applied radio frequency and
microwave fields. Such interactions should allow essentially decoherence-free
dynamics and the application of techniques for robust control developed for NMR
spectroscopy. We establish the conditions under which the system is
controllable in the sense that one can generate an arbitrary unitary on the
system. We apply this to the case of $^{133}$Cs with its $d=16$ dimensional
Hilbert space of magnetic sublevels in the $6S_{1/2}$ state, and design control
waveforms that generate an arbitrary target state from an initial fiducial
state. We develop a generalized Wigner function representation for this space
consisting of the direct sum of two irreducible representation of SU(2),
allowing us to visualize these states. The performance of different control
scenarios is evaluated based on the ability to generate high-fidelity operation
in an allotted time with the available resources. We find good operating points
commensurate with modest laboratory requirements.

We suggest to interface atomic ensembles, for which means of high precision
state preparation, manipulation and measurement are available, via an optical
quantum bus to nanomechanical systems. This allows for a Quantum Non-Demolition
Bell measurement, projecting the coupled system atomic ensemble -
nanomechanical resonator into an entangled state. The entanglement is
observable even for nanoresonators initially well above their ground states and
can be utilized for teleportation of states from an atomic ensemble to the
mechanical system. Because of the rich toolbox already available for these
systems, we expect the interface to give rise to a variety of new quantum
protocols.

A generalized description of Talbot-Lau interference with matter waves is
presented, which accounts for arbitrary grating interactions and realistic beam
characteristics. The dispersion interaction between the beam particles and the
optical elements strongly influences the interference pattern in this
near-field effect, and it is known to dominate the fringe visibility if
increasingly massive and complex particles are used. We provide a general
description of the grating interaction process by combining semiclassical
scattering theory with a phase space formulation. It serves to systematically
improve the eikonal approximation used so far, and to assess its regime of
validity.

using a fs-frequency comb. The determined level energies were used together
with Feshbach resonances from cold collisions of $^{39}$K and $^{40}$K reported

We examine combined photoassociation and Feshbach resonances in a
Bose-Einstein condensate, focusing on the case where only one field, magnetic
or laser, is off-resonant. For off-resonant magnetic fields, the position of
laser resonance is dispersively shifted with magnetic field, blue below the
Feshbach resonance, while atom losses to photoassociation cease at a specific
magnetic field and saturate at the limit for magnetoassociation alone. For
off-resonant lasers, a similar shift occurs in the position of magnetic-field
resonance, and a node occurs in Feshbach losses at a particular laser detuning;
however, in contrast to the photoassociation node, the position of the Feshbach
node depends on intensity. Cross coupling between the photoassociation and
Feshbach molecules, and associated quantum interference, is implicated as the
physical mechanism responsible for this behavior. Off-Feshbach-resonant results
agree reasonably with recent observations.

pairing phase is favoured over the homogeneous superfluid and normal phases in
three-dimensional unitary Fermi systems. Using a density functional theory
(DFT) based on the latest quantum Monte-Carlo calculations and experimental
results, we show that this phase is competitive over a large region of the
phase diagram. The oscillations in the number densities and pairing field have
a substantial amplitude, and a period some three to ten times the average
interparticle separation. Within the DFT, the transition to a normal polarized
Fermi liquid at large polarizations is smooth, while the transition to a
fully-paired superfluid is abrupt.

We report on the observation of an interaction blockade effect for ultracold
atoms in optical lattices, analogous to Coulomb blockade observed in mesoscopic
solid state systems. When the lattice sites are converted into biased double
wells, we detect a discrete set of steps in the well population for increasing
bias potentials. These correspond to tunneling resonances where the atom number
on each side of the barrier changes one by one. This allows us to count and
control the number of atoms within a given well. By evaluating the amplitude of
the different plateaus, we can fully determine the number distribution of the
atoms in the lattice, which we demonstrate for the case of a superfluid and
Mott insulating regime of 87Rb.

Cold atomic ensembles can mediate the generation of entanglement between
pairs of photons. Photons with specific directions of propagation are detected,
and the entanglement can reside in any of the degrees of freedom that describe
the whole quantum state of the photons: polarization, spatial shape or
frequency. We show that the direction of propagation of the generated photons
determines the spatial quantum state of the photons and therefore, the amount
of entanglement generated. When photons generated in different directions are
combined, this spatial distinguishing information can degrade the quantum
purity of the polarization or frequency entanglement.

The electro-optic effect, where the refractive index of a medium is modified
by an electric field, is of central importance in non-linear optics, laser
technology, quantum optics and optical communications. In general,
electro-optic coefficients are very weak and a medium with a giant
electro-optic coefficient would have profound implications for non-linear
optics, especially at the single photon level, enabling single photon
entanglement and switching. Here we propose and demonstrate a giant
electro-optic effect based on polarizable dark states. We demonstrate phase
modulation of the light field in the dark state medium and measure an
electro-optic coefficient that is more than 12 orders of magnitude larger than
in other gases. This enormous Kerr non-linearity also creates the potential for
precision electrometry and photon entanglement.

By means of the variational approximation (VA) and systematic simulations, we
study dynamics and stability boundaries for solitons in a two-dimensional (2D)
self-attracting Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), trapped in an optical lattice
(OL) whose amplitude is subjected to the periodic time modulation (the
modulation frequency, $\omega $, may be in the range of several KHz). Regions
of stability of the solitons against the collapse and decay are identified in
the space of the model's parameters. A noteworthy result is that the stability
limit may reach the largest (100%) modulation depth, and the collapse threshold
may exceed its classical value in the static lattice (which corresponds to the
norm of Townes soliton). Minimum norm $% N_{\min}$ necessary for the stability
of the solitons is identified too. It features a strong dependence on $\omega $
at a low frequencies, due to a resonant decay of the soliton. Predictions of
the VA are reasonably close to results of the simulations. In particular, the
VA helps to understand salient resonant features in the shape of the stability
boundaries observed with the variation of $\omega $.

By using a self-consistent dual vortex method and analyzing the saddle point
structures of the dual gauge fields carefully in the insulating side, we study
quantum phases, especially supersolid phases and phase transitions in an
extended boson Hubbard model at and slightly away from $ 1/3 $ ($ 2/3 $)
filling on a kagome lattice. We find phases and phase transitions in Kagome
lattice is dramatically different from those in bipartite and triangular
lattices in both Ising and Easy-plane limit. Slightly away from $ f=1/3 (2/3)
$, there is no supersolid in the Ising limit, but there are always supersolids
in the Easy-plane limit where we find a stripe solid and a new type of
supersolid which has charge density wave-valence bond-superfluid order and also
analyze their corresponding stability conditions. The results achieved resolve
some outstanding puzzles observed in recent QMC in a kagome lattice.
Implications on QMC simulations with both nearest neighbor and next nearest

Using Gross-Pitaevskii equation, we study the time reversibility of

the regime of quantum chaos the dynamics can be inverted from explosion to
collapse. The accuracy of time reversal decreases with the increase of atom
interactions inside BEC, until it is completely lost. Surprisingly, quantum
chaos helps to restore time reversibility. These predictions can be tested with
existing experimental setups.

A method of entanglement production is suggested, based on the resonant
generation of topological modes in systems with Bose-Einstein condensates
trapped in optical or magnetic lattices. The method makes it possible to
regulate the strength of entanglement production as well as to govern its time
variation. This method can serve as a practical tool for quantum information
processing and quantum computing.

We consider a Bose gas with an attractive interaction in a symmetric double
well potential. In the Hartree approximation, the ground state solution
spontaneously breaks the symmetry of the trapping potential above certain value
of the interaction strength. We demonstrate how the Landau-Ginzburg scheme of
the second order phase transition emerges from the quantum model and show its
link to the spontaneous symmetry breaking mentioned above. We identify the
order parameter, the critical point and analyze quantum fluctuations around it.

We study quantum transport of an interacting Bose-Einstein condensate in a
two-dimensional disorder potential. In the limit of vanishing atom-atom
interaction, a sharp cone in the angle-resolved density of the scattered matter
wave is observed, arising from constructive interference between amplitudes
propagating along reversed scattering paths. Weak interaction transforms this
coherent backscattering peak into a pronounced dip, indicating destructive
instead of constructive interference. We reproduce this result, obtained from
the numerical integration of the Gross-Pitaevskii equation, by a diagrammatic
theory of weak localization in presence of a nonlinearity.

effective field theory with computational lattice methods. Lattice effective
field theory is discussed for cold atoms as well as low-energy nucleons with
and without pions. A number of different lattice formulations and computational
algorithms are considered, and an effort is made to show common themes in
studies of cold atoms and low-energy nuclear physics as well as common themes
in work by different collaborations.

We propose a time-domain "interferometer" based on ultracold Bose atoms
loaded on a double well potential. By the adiabatic Rosen-Zener process, the
barrier between two wells is ramped down slowly, held for a while, then ramped
back. Starting with a coherent state of double well system, the final
occupations on one well show interesting interference fringes in the
time-domain. The fringe pattern is sensitive to the initial state and can be
controlled by the hold time. This interferometric scheme provides new
possibilities for precision measurements with ultracold atoms. The underlying
mechanism is revealed and possible applications are discussed.

We study cold bosons in the first excited Bloch band of a double-well optical
lattice, recently realized at NIST. By calculating parameters of the
Bose-Hubbard model from a realistic nonseparable lattice potential, we find
that in the most favorable cases the boson lifetime in the first excited band
can be several orders of magnitude longer than the typical nearest-neighbor
tunnelling timescales, in contrast to that of a simple single-well lattice. In
addition, for sufficiently small lattice depths the excited band has minima at
nonzero momenta incommensurate with the lattice period, which opens a
possibility to realize an exotic superfluid state that spontaneously breaks the
time-reversal, rotational, and translational symmetries. We discuss possible
experimental signatures of this novel state.

We present a comprehensive analysis of quantum fluctuation effects in the
superfluid ground state of an attractively interacting Fermi system, employing
the attractive Hubbard model as a prototype. The superfluid order parameter,
and fluctuations thereof, are implemented by a bosonic Hubbard-Stratonovich
field, which splits into two components corresponding to longitudinal and
transverse (Goldstone) fluctuations. Physical properties of the system are
computed from a set of approximate flow equations obtained by truncating the
exact functional renormalization group flow of the coupled fermion-boson
action. The equations capture the influence of fluctuations on non-universal
quantities such as the fermionic gap, as well as the universal infrared
asymptotics present in every fermionic superfluid. We solve the flow equations
numerically in two dimensions and compute the asymptotic behavior analytically
in two and three dimensions. The fermionic gap \Delta is reduced significantly
compared to the mean-field gap, and the bosonic order parameter \alpha, which
is equivalent to \Delta in mean-field theory, is suppressed to values below
\Delta by fluctuations. The fermion-boson vertex is only slightly renormalized.
In the infrared regime, transverse order parameter fluctuations associated with
the Goldstone mode lead to a strong renormalization of longitudinal
fluctuations: the longitudinal mass and the bosonic self-interaction vanish
linearly as a function of the scale in two dimensions, and logarithmically in
three dimensions, in agreement with the exact behavior of an interacting Bose
gas.

We show how to construct relevant families of matrix product operators in one

simulation methods based on matrix product states and projected entangled pair
states. In particular, we construct translational invariant matrix product
operators suitable for time evolution, and show how such descriptions are
possible for Hamiltonians with long-range interactions. We illustrate how those
tools can be exploited for constructing new algorithms for simulating quantum
spin systems.

\\
Generating nonclassical light offers a benchmark tool for the fundamental
research and potential applications in quantum optics. Conventionally, it has
become a standard technique to produce the nonclassical light through the
nonlinear optical processes occurring in nonlinear crystals. In this review we
describe using cold atomic-gas media to generate such nonclassical light,
especially focusing on narrow-band biphoton generation. Compared with the
standard procedure, the new biphoton source has such properties as long
coherence time, long coherence length, high spectral brightness, and high
conversion efficiency. In this paper we concentrate on the theoretical aspect
of the entangled two-photon state produced from the four-wave mixing in a
multilevel atomic ensemble. We show that both linear and nonlinear optical
responses to the generated fields play an important role in determining the
biphoton waveform and, consequently on the two-photon temporal correlation.
There are two characteristic regimes determined by whether the linear or
nonlinear coherence time is dominant. In addition, our model provides a clear
physical picture that brings insight into understanding biphoton optics with
this new source. We apply our model to recent work on generating narrow-band
(and even subnatural linewidth) paired photons using the technique of
electromagnetically induced transparency and slow-light effect in cold atoms,
and find good agreements with experimental results.

Title: Gravitation as a Casimir interaction
Authors: Bo E. Sernelius
Categories: quant-ph
License: http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
\\
Gravitation is considered to be one of the four fundamental interactions in
nature. However, one has so far failed to observe the graviton, the quantum
particle that is believed to transmit the gravitational force at a distance -
the analogue to the photon in electromagnetism. Maybe it is now time to
re-evaluate the status of the gravitation as a fundamental interaction. Here,
we propose a completely new interpretation of gravitation. In this description
the gravitational force is no longer a fundamental force. It is an induced
force, a dispersion force, and the analogue to the Casimir force in
electromagnetism. The fundamental force is in our description a force between
particles with a parabolic interaction potential. In our model the nucleons are
made up from these particles. We find the retarded dispersion force between
these composite particles has the correct distance dependence, 1/r. If this
interpretation is correct it has a broad range of implications. Our view on the
fundamental concept mass is altered; our view on the expansion of the Universe
may change.

Authors: C. Ray Hill and George F. Viamontes

Comments: 15 pages
License: http://arxiv.org/licenses/nonexclusive-distrib/1.0/
\\
Shor's algorithm (SA) is a quantum algorithm for factoring integers. Since SA
has polynomial complexity while the best classical factoring algorithms are
sub-exponential, SA is cited as evidence that quantum computers are more
powerful than classical computers. SA is critically dependent on the Quantum
Fourier Transform (QFT) and it is known that the QFT is sensitive to errors in
the quantum state input to it. In this paper, we show that the polynomial
scaling of SA is destroyed by input errors to the QFT part of the algorithm. We
also show that Quantum Error Correcting Codes (QECC) are not capable of
suppressing errors due to operator imprecision and that propagation of operator
precision errors is sufficient to severely degrade the effectiveness of SA.
Additionally we show that operator imprecision in the error correction circuit
for the Calderbank-Shor-Steane QECC is mathematically equivalent to decoherence
on every physical qubit in a register. We conclude that, because of the effect
of operator precision errors, it is likely that physically realizable quantum
computers will be capable of factoring integers no more efficiently than
classical computers.
