Coherent Processing of a Qubit Using One Squeezed State

In a departure from most work in quantum information utilizing Gaussian states, we use a single such state to represent a qubit and model environmental noise with a class of quadratic dissipative equations. A benefit of this single Gaussian representation is that with one deconvolution, we can elimi...
