An all-optical scheme for simulating non-Markovian evolution of a quantum system is proposed. It uses only linear optics elements and by controlling the system parameters allows one to control the presence or absence of information backflow from the environment. A sufficient and necessary condition for the non-Markovianity of our channel based on Gaussian inputs is proved. Various criteria for detecting non-Markovianity are also investigated by checking the dynamical evolution of the channel.

We explore the feasibility of coherent control of excitonic dynamics in light harvesting complexes despite the open nature of these quantum systems. We establish feasible targets for phase and phase/amplitude control of the electronically excited state populations in the Fenna-Mathews-Olson (FMO) complex and analyze the robustness of this control.

The Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality was originally proposed as a Bell inequality to detect nonlocality in bipartite systems. However, it can also be used to certify the nonlocality of multipartite quantum states. We apply this to study the nonlocality of multipartite Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger, W and graph states under local decoherence processes.

This work considers the theory underlying a discrete-time quantum filter recently used in a quantum feedback experiment. It proves that this filter taking into account decoherence and measurement errors is optimal and stable.

The ubiquitous decoherence phenomenon is responsible for the lack of quantum superpositions at the macroscopic scale. It is increasingly difficult to isolate a quantum system from its environment when its size increases. Making use of the weird quantum properties of mesoscopic quantum states thus requires efficient means to combat decoherence. One option is real-time quantum feedback.
