Questions tagged [correlations]

In Bell test experiments, the term quantum correlation has come to mean the expectation value of the product of the outcomes on the two sides. In other words, the expected change in physical characteristics as one quantum system passes through an interaction site.

What is the relationship between entanglement and quantum correlation?

What is the relationship between entanglement and quantum correlation? Are they synonym? Sometimes, these two words look like synonym; people use one word to explain another, These states are not a ...

Quantum Ising model correlation function query

In this paper on quantum Ising model dynamics, they consider the Hamiltonian $$\mathcal{H} = \sum_{j < k} J_{jk} \hat{\sigma}_{j}^{z}\hat{\sigma}_{k}^{z}$$ and the correlation function $$\mathcal{G}...

Out-of-time-order correlation function in the interaction picture?

Recently there has been interest in understanding the out of time order correlation function (OTOC) $F$, which essentially compares the overlap of two operators $W$ and $V$ acting on a state in two ...

How to measure a Bell inequality violation in IBM Q?

Note: Cross-posted on Physics SE. I made some circuit to prepare a 2 qubit state, but I am having trouble understanding how to measure Bell's inequality. I know the inequality is of the form $$|E(a,...

Two-time correlators in Cirq?

Is there a way to calculate two-time correlators in Cirq directly? For example, suppose we have an initial mixed state described by a density matrix $\rho_0$, and we want to obtain in our quantum ...

How is the third-order autocorrelation measured in quantum optics?

The third order autocorrelation is defined as $$\bar g^{(3)} = \frac{\langle \hat a^\dagger \hat a^\dagger\hat a^\dagger \hat a\hat a\hat a\rangle}{\bar n^3}.$$ How is this quantity measured in ...
