چکیده
We present a way to construct a pilot-wave model for quantum field theory. The idea is to introduce beables corresponding only to the bosonic degrees of freedom and not to the fermionic degrees of freedom of the quantum state. We illustrate this idea for quantum elec-trodynamics. The beables will be field beables corresponding to the electromagnetic field and they will be introduced in a similar way to that of Bohm's model for the free electromagnetic field. Our approach is analogous to the situation in non-relativistic quantum theory, where Bell treated spin not as a beable but only as a property of the wave-function.

Examples involving contextuality (e.g. Bell-Kochen-Specker) are analyzed and post-selection is shown to allow definite assignment of values to observ-ables in a new way. A physical reason is presented for restrictions on these assignments. Finally, it is shown that if measurements are performed which do not disturb the pre-and post-selection (i.e. weak-measurements), then a new experimental asp...

The two-photon Rabi Hamiltonian is a simple model describing the interaction of light with matter, with the interaction being mediated by the exchange of two photons. Although this model is exactly soluble in the rotating-wave approximation, we work with the full Hamiltonian, maintaining the non-integrability of the model. We demonstrate that, despite this non-integrability, there exist isolate...

A general formalism of the relation between geometric phases produced by circularly evolving interacting spin systems and their criticality behavior is presented. This opens up the way for the use of geometric phases as a tool to study regions of criticality without having to undergo a quantum phase transition. As a concrete example a spin-1/2 chain with XY interactions is presented and the cor...

We describe a quantum PAC learning algorithm for DNF formulae under the uniform distribution with a query complexity of Õ(s/ǫ+ s/ǫ), where s is the size of DNF formula and ǫ is the PAC error accuracy. If s and 1/ǫ are comparable, this gives a modest improvement over a previously known classical query complexity of Õ(ns/ǫ). We also show a lower bound of Ω(s logn/n) on the query complexity of any...

In this paper we give a method to associate a graph with an arbitrary density matrix referred to a standard orthonormal basis in the Hilbert space of a finite dimensional quantum system. We study the related issues like classification of pure and mixed states, Von-Neumann entropy, separability of multipartite quantum states and quantum operations in terms of the graphs associated with quantum s...
