... example that has three clauses, each acting on 2 bits. Each 2-bit clause has more than one satisfying assignment but adiabatic evolution using H(t) of the form (1.2) produces the unique common satisfying assignment. In Section 4 we look at examples that grow with the number of bits in order to study ...

Two-particle Harmonic Oscillator in a One
... −L/2 and L/2 bound by a linear force that produces a parabolic potential–energy function V (x) = k(x−x0 )2 /2, where |x0 | < L/2. When x0 = 0 the problem is symmetric and the eigenfunctions are either even or odd; such symmetry is broken when x0 = 0. Although interesting in itself, this model is ra ...

Equation 6, therefore, simply says that the Hamiltonian operator is the sum of the kinetic energy and potential energy operators: it is the total energy operator, and that’s why its eigenvalues are the energy values E that correspond to its eigenfunctions.

In this paper, we focus however on a particular case of correlations arising between the outgoing light fields and the mechanical motion of the centre of mass of a movable mirror in the optical FabryP´erot cavity that is not a bipartite entanglement. As the o ...
