This $600,000 project grant awarded by the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Division of Physics will advance the fundamental understanding of non-Hermitian physics and explore its applications in quantum information science. The research will leverage concepts from quantum entanglement and open quantum systems to characterize the dynamics of non-Hermitian bosonic systems, with a focus on achieving enhanced quantum state transfer in quantum networks. The project will also demonstrate a quantum analog of a tunable nonlinear microwave-cavity dimer and investigate the implementation of many-body non-Hermitian nonlinear dynamics in a six-site bosonic system. This work is expected to provide valuable insights into the interplay between non-Hermiticity and many-body quantum physics, while identifying improved protocols for dissipative quantum information processing. The project, awarded to Trustees of Dartmouth College, will run from August 2024 to July 2027 and includes a strong educational and training component at the graduate and postdoctoral level.
