Vibrations, quanta and biology
Quantum biology is an emerging field of research that concerns itself with the experimental
and theoretical exploration of non-trivial quantum phenomena in biological systems. In this …

Quantum computation of electronic transitions using a variational quantum eigensolver
We develop an extension of the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE) algorithm—
multistate contracted VQE (MC-VQE)—that allows for the efficient computation of the …

Quantum stochastic processes and quantum non-Markovian phenomena
The field of classical stochastic processes forms a major branch of mathematics. Stochastic
processes are, of course, also very well studied in biology, chemistry, ecology, geology …

A quantitative theory of coherent delocalization
F Levi, F Mintert - New Journal of Physics, 2014 - iopscience.iop.org
We define a quantitative measure of coherent delocalization; similarly to the concept of
entanglement measures, we require that a measure of coherent delocalization may never …
