Abstract

Correlation of particles number in an equilibrium thermal state of quantum gas is caused mutual «interference repulsion» and antibunching at fermions and «interference attraction» and bunching at bosons.

Interference of identical particles from entanglement to boson-sampling

Malte C. Tichy

Progress in the reliable preparation, coherent propagation and efficient detection of many-body states has recently brought collective quantum phenomena of many identical particles into the spotlight. This tutorial introduces the physics of many-boson and many-fermion interference required for the description of current experiments and for the understanding of novel approaches to quantum computing. The field is motivated via the two-particle case, for which the uncorrelated, classical dynamics of distinguishable particles is compared to the quantum behaviour of identical bosons and fermions. Bunching of bosons is opposed to anti-bunching of fermions, while both species constitute equivalent sources of bipartite two-level entanglement. The realms of indistinguishable and distinguishable particles are connected by a monotonic transition, on a scale defined by the coherence length of the interfering particles. As we move to larger systems, any attempt to understand many particles via the two-particle paradigm fails: In contrast to two-particle bunching and anti-bunching, the very same signatures can be exhibited by bosons and fermions, and coherent effects dominate over statistical behaviour. The simulation of many-boson interference, termed Boson-Sampling, entails a qualitatively superior computational complexity when compared to fermions. The hierarchy between bosons and fermions also characterises multipartite entanglement generation, for which bosons again clearly outmatch fermions. Finally, the quantum-to-classical transition between many indistinguishable and many distinguishable particles features non-monotonic structures. While the same physical principles govern small and large systems, the deployment of the intrinsic complexity of collective many-body interference makes more particles behave differently.

Quantum Statistics and Self-Interference in Extended Colliders

Sai Satyam Samal, Smitha Vishveshwara, Yuval Gefen +1 more

Collision of quantum particles remains an effective way of probing their mutual statistics. Colliders based on quantum point contacts in quantum Hall edge states have been successfully used to probe the statistics of the underlying quantum particles. Notwithstanding the extensive theoretical work focusing on pointlike colliders, when it comes to experiment, the colliders are rarely pointlike objects and can support a resonant level or multiple tunneling points. We present a study of a paradigmatic extended (non-point-like) fermionic collider (and an extension to bosonic colliders). As with particle interferometers, in an extended collider there is an infinite number of trajectories for any single- or multiparticle event. Self-interference of the former can lead to an apparent bunching of fermions when we compare the cross-current correlator with a classical benchmark representing two colliding beams. In view of this apparent bunching behavior of fermions, we identify an experimentally accessible current correlator, which reveals the true mutual statistics of fermions.

Theory of Interacting Quantum Gases

Henk T. C. Stoof, M. Bijlsma, M. Houbiers

We present a unified picture of the interaction effects in dilute atomic quantum gases. We consider fermionic as well as bosonic gases and, in particular, discuss for both forms of statistics the fundamental differences between a gas with effectively repulsive and a gas with effectively attractive interatomic interactions, i.e.\ between a gas with either a positive or a negative scattering length.

Universality of boson bunching and fermion antibunching in linear networks

V. S. Shchesnovich

It is found that identical bosons (fermions) show generalized bunching (antibunching) property in linear networks: The absolute maximum (minimum) of probability that all $N$ input particles are detected in a subset of $\mathcal{K}$ output modes of any nontrivial linear $M$-mode network is attained \textit{only} by completely indistinguishable bosons (fermions). For fermions $\mathcal{K}$ is arbitrary, for bosons it is either ($i$) arbitrary for only classically correlated bosons or ($ii$) satisfies $\mathcal{K}\ge N$ (or $\mathcal{K}=1$) for arbitrary input states of $N$ particles. The generalized bunching allows to certify in a \textit{polynomial} in $N$ number of runs that a physical device realizing Boson Sampling with \textit{an arbitrary} network operates in the regime of full quantum coherence compatible \textit{only} with completely indistinguishable bosons. The protocol needs \textit{only polynomial} classical computations for the standard Boson Sampling, whereas an \textit{analytic formula} is available for the scattershot version.

Interatomic interaction effects on second-order momentum correlations and Hong-Ou-Mandel interference of double-well-trapped ultracold fermionic atoms

Benedikt B. Brandt, Constantine Yannouleas, Uzi Landman

Identification and understanding of the evolution of interference patterns in two-particle momentum correlations as a function of the strength of interatomic interactions are important in explorations of the nature of quantum states of trapped particles. Together with the analysis of two-particle spatial correlations, they offer the prospect of uncovering fundamental symmetries and structure of correlated many-body states, as well as opening vistas into potential control and utilization of correlated quantum states as quantum-information resources. With the use of the second-order density matrix constructed via exact diagonalization of the microscopic Hamiltonian, and an analytic Hubbard-type model, we explore here the systematic evolution of characteristic interference patterns in the two-body momentum and spatial correlation maps of two entangled ultracold fermionic atoms in a double well, for the entire attractive- and repulsive-interaction range. We uncover quantum-statistics-governed bunching and antibunching, as well as interaction-dependent interference patterns, in the ground and excited states, and interpret our results in light of the Hong-Ou-Mandel interference physics, widely exploited in photon indistinguishability testing and quantum-information science.
