Analytical study of birefringent cavities for axion-like dark matter search

This study develops a rigorous, nonperturbative framework to quantify how mirror birefringence and polarization misalignment degrade sensitivity in axion-like particle searches, revealing that while misalignment effects can be mitigated through postselection, birefringence introduces a distinct high-mass resonance peak that necessitates careful consideration in high-precision optical-cavity experiments.

Quantum two-dimensional superintegrable systems in flat space: exact-solvability, hidden algebra, polynomial algebra of integrals

This review paper demonstrates that six specific two-dimensional quantum superintegrable systems in flat space are exactly solvable and share a common hidden Lie algebraic structure, characterized by polynomial eigenfunctions, infinite flags of invariant subspaces, and finite-order polynomial algebras of integrals.

Dirac-Bergmann algorithm and canonical quantization of kk-essence cosmology

This paper develops a general canonical quantization scheme for kk-essence cosmology using the Dirac-Bergmann algorithm to derive a Wheeler-DeWitt equation, which is then applied to a tachyonic field model to investigate phantom crossing via quantum tunneling and the effects of boundary conditions on singularity avoidance and expansion rates.

Complete Hierarchies for the Geometric Measure of Entanglement

This paper introduces a convergent hierarchical method based on multiple copies of a pure state to compute the maximal overlap with product states, thereby enabling the calculation of the geometric measure of entanglement and providing powerful tools for stochastic local transformations, entanglement witnessing, and separability testing in multiparticle quantum systems.

An Approach to Probing Particles and Quasi-particles in the Condensed Bose-Hubbard Model

This paper investigates how the parameters of phase contrast imaging in cold atom systems influence both the observation and the backaction on a Bose-Einstein condensate array, revealing regimes where the measurement selectively probes bare particles or quasiparticles while offering control over measurement-induced quasiparticle creation and diffusion.

Generalized entropic uncertainty relation and non-classicality in Schwarzschild black hole

This study proposes a novel, tighter generalized entropic uncertainty relation for multi-measurements in many-body systems and applies it to Schwarzschild black holes to reveal the exact equivalence between entanglement and l1l_1-norm coherence in GHZ-type states, while demonstrating how increasing Hawking temperature degrades quantum coherence and maximizes measurement uncertainty.

Barenco gate implementation using driven two- and three-qubit spin chains

This paper presents an analytical protocol for implementing Barenco-type multi-qubit controlled gates, including CNOT and Toffoli gates, on driven two- and three-qubit spin chains by deriving effective Hamiltonians through unitary transformations and rotating-wave approximations, which numerical simulations confirm achieve high fidelity and robustness for quantum information processing.
