Abstract

We will show how geometric phases, i.e. phases which appear when a system undergoes a cyclic adiabatic evolution, can find useful application in fault tolerant quantum computation. A particular setup based on coupled superconducting nanostructures will be described

We study the relation between Chern numbers and quantum phase transitions (QPT) in the XY spin-chain model. By coupling the spin chain to a single spin, it is possible to study topological invariants associated to the coupling Hamiltonian. These invariants contain global information, in addition to

The macroscopic quantum dynamics of nano-scale high-T c superconductor Josephson junctions is investigated theoretically. We analytically obtained the macroscopic quantum tunneling (MQT) rate and showed that the presence of the zero energy bound states at the interface leads to a strong damping effe
