    Experimental research of extended polarization coherence theorem for nonclassical light
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-06-26) Jara Ortiz, Max; De Zela Martinez, Francisco Antonio
    This thesis reports the experimental display of an extension of the polarization coherence theorem (PCT), a theorem that established a constraint between distinguishability and visibility, two quantities that serve, respectively, as a measure of particle-like and wave-like behavior that may simultaneously appear in interferometric arrangements. While the PCT applies in both quantum and classical regimes, this thesis focuses on the quantum case. The experiments were conducted using single photons. The theoretical extension of the PCT that was submitted to experimental test is much more involved than the original PCT and put several technical challenges. This thesis reports the successful implementation of the experiments. The techniques used could also be employed, with slight modifications, when working with classical light. The general framework, in which our results make a contribution, refers to so-called wave-particle duality and Bohr’s complementarity principle. This is a topic of intensive research that addresses not only foundational issues in quantum mechanics but also practical applications in quantum information science.

    Constraints between concurrence and polarization for mixed states subjected to open system dynamics
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2023-05-24) Montenegro La Torre, Carlos Renzo Misael; De Zela Martinez, Francisco Antonio
    Entanglement and polarization are mutually constrained by the relationship C2 + P2 = 1, which engages concurrence (C) of a pure, two-qubit state and the degree of polarization (P) of either of its two subsystems. How the above constraint generalizes for mixed states, is an open question. We address mixed, two-qubit states of the X type, i.e., those whose density matrix has nonzero elements only in the two main diagonals. We focus on mixed states that arise out of a pure, two-qubit state that is subjected to either the amplitude damping channel or the depolarizing channel. We derive alternative constraints for concurrence and polarization and test them experimentally with polarization-entangled photons. We argue that our theoretical results hold also for classical light, whenever two binary degrees of freedom can be entangled.

    Coherencia como recurso en los sistemas cuánticos abiertos
    (Pontificia Universidad Católica del Perú, 2022-07-26) Yugra Carcasi, Yonny Daniel; De Zela Martinez, Francisco Antonio
    In this thesis, we address open quantum systems subjected to Markovian and non- Markovian evolutions. We diagnose these two regimes using the relative entropy of coherence. We specially address the case of two qubits encoded in the polarization degree of freedom of photon beams. The two qubits play the roles of system and ancilla. In our experimental setup, we need only two parameters to control Markovian and non-Markovian regimes. We also propose and provide a proof-of-concept for the implementation of a quantum gate that drives an open system so that it can reach maximal coherence. Our ndings also illustrate possibilities for generating non-Markovian processes, which are important to recover information that has gone from the system to its environment. We thereby show how non-Markovianity can be considered as a resource in open quantum systems.
