EQC | Energetics of quantum correlations

Summary
The proposed project Energetics of Quantum Correlations aims to establish a comprehensive framework for studying quantum correlations and thermodynamics in continuous variables.
The key research goals established within this project encompass the creation of a universally applicable operational framework delineating the relationship between entanglement and energy manipulation. This framework should be readily employable within the quantum technology sector. Additionally, the project aims to conceive practical applications for harnessing energetic quantum advantages. Lastly, it seeks to formulate an experimental plan for assessing the proposed theory.
To achieve these goals, the project leverages the expertise of both the hosting institution, Universidad de Buenos Aires (UBA), and the partner institution, ICFO. Furthermore, the project emphasises knowledge transfer and collaboration. During the outgoing phase, the researcher will collaborate closely with Prof. Paz's team at UBA, gaining insights into quantum thermodynamics and correlations. In the return phase at ICFO, collaboration with Prof. Acín's Quantum Information Theory group will involve advanced analytical and numerical methods for characterising quantum correlations.
The project places a strong emphasis on skills transfer. The researcher will actively engage in co-supervising PhD and master's students, enhancing supervisory and management skills. Teaching activities at both institutions will improve pedagogical abilities, while participation in interdisciplinary initiatives will foster networking and knowledge exchange.
In addition, the project is committed to develop energy efficient quantum technologies, aligning with the MSCA Green Charter.
With a strong foundation in theory and practical experiments, coupled with a commitment to sustainability and knowledge exchange, it is well-positioned to make significant strides in our understanding of quantum correlations and their role in energy processing.
