Dynamical Generation of Noiseless Quantum Subsystems

We present control schemes for open quantum systems that combine decoupling and universal control methods with coding procedures. By exploiting a general algebraic approach, we show how appropriate encodings of quantum states result in obtaining universal control over dynamically-generated noise-protected subsystems with limited control resources. In particular, we provide an efficient scheme for performing universal encoded quantum computation in a wide class of systems subjected to linear non-Markovian quantum noise and supporting Heisenberg-type internal Hamiltonians.Comment: 4 pages, no figures; REVTeX styl

Pengaruh Inventory Turnover, Total Asset Turnover Dan Net Profit Margin Terhadap Perubahan Laba Pada Perusahaan Manufaktur Yang Terdaftar Di Bursa Efek Indonesia

This study aims to analyze the effect of inventory turnover, total asset turnover, and net profit margin to changes in earnings in the automotive sector manufacturing companies listed in Indonesia Stock Exchange during the period 2010-2014. The research method in this study is a quantitative method by using financial statements to test the hypothesis that has been compiled to the variables to be studied. The results showed that the inventory turnover have a significant influence on changes in earnings is evidenced by the significant value of 0.014 0.05 and a net profit margin of significance value of 0.081> 0.05 it can be concluded that the total asset turnover and net profit margin does not have a significant effect on earnings changes. Significant value 0.019 <0.05 this proves inventory turnover, total asset turnover, and net profit margin simultaneously significant effect on the change in earnings in manufacturing automotive sector from 2010-2014 listed in the Indonesia Stock Exchang

Towards optimized suppression of dephasing in systems subject to pulse timing constraints

We investigate the effectiveness of different dynamical decoupling protocols for storage of a single qubit in the presence of a purely dephasing bosonic bath, with emphasis on comparing quantum coherence preservation under uniform vs. non-uniform delay times between pulses. In the limit of instantaneous bit-flip pulses, this is accomplished by establishing a new representation of the controlled qubit evolution, where the resulting decoherence behaviour is directly expressed in terms of the free evolution. Simple analytical expressions are given to approximate the long- and short- term coherence behaviour for both ohmic and supra-ohmic environments. We focus on systems with physical constraints on achievable time delays, with emphasis on pure dephasing of excitonic qubits in quantum dots. Our analysis shows that little advantage of high-level decoupling schemes based on concatenated or optimal design is to be expected if operational constraints prevent pulses to be applied sufficiently fast. In such constrained scenarios, we demonstrate how simple modifications of repeated periodic echo protocols can offer significantly improved coherence preservation in realistic parameter regimes.Comment: 13 figures,1 tabl

A subsystem-independent generalization of entanglement

We introduce a generalization of entanglement based on the idea that entanglement is relative to a distinguished subspace of observables rather than a distinguished subsystem decomposition. A pure quantum state is entangled relative to such a subspace if its expectations are a proper mixture of those of other states. Many information-theoretic aspects of entanglement can be extended to the general setting, suggesting new ways of measuring and classifying entanglement in multipartite systems. By going beyond the distinguishable-subsystem framework, generalized entanglement also provides novel tools for probing quantum correlations in interacting many-body systems.Comment: 5 pages, 1 encapsulated color figure, REVTeX4 styl

Dynamical Decoupling Using Slow Pulses: Efficient Suppression of 1/f Noise

The application of dynamical decoupling pulses to a single qubit interacting with a linear harmonic oscillator bath with $1/f$ spectral density is studied, and compared to the Ohmic case. Decoupling pulses that are slower than the fastest bath time-scale are shown to drastically reduce the decoherence rate in the $1/f$ case. Contrary to conclusions drawn from previous studies, this shows that dynamical decoupling pulses do not always have to be ultra-fast. Our results explain a recent experiment in which dephasing due to $1/f$ charge noise affecting a charge qubit in a small superconducting electrode was successfully suppressed using spin-echo-type gate-voltage pulses.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figures. v2: Many changes and update
