Quantum key distribution without sending a quantum signal by T C Ralph, N Walk

“…If relativistic quantum field theory is considered we show it is possible to distribute an unconditionally secure secret key without sending a quantum signal, instead harnessing the intrinsic entanglement between different regions of space–time. …”

Comparison of the Lifshitz Theory Using the Nonconventional Fit of Response Functions with Precise Measurements of the Casimir Force by Galina L. Klimchitskaya, Vladimir M. Mostepanenko

“…It is known that the fundamental Lifshitz theory, which is based on the first principles of thermal quantum field theory, experiences difficulties when compared with precise measurements of the Casimir force. …”

R-evolving QCD matrix elements by Scimemi, Ignazio, Jain, Ambar, Hoang, Andre, Stewart, Iain W.

“…MS, combined with dimensional regularization, is one of the most popular and practical renormalization scheme in quantum field theory. One of the drawbacks of this scheme is however that undesired infrared contributions hide in the short-distance calculations and manifest themselves as the so called renormalon ambiguities. …”

Low Dimensional Geometry and Topology Special Feature: Tour of bordered Floer theory by Ozsvath, Peter, Lipshitz, Robert, Thurston, Dylan P.

“…Heegaard Floer theory is a kind of topological quantum field theory (TQFT), assigning graded groups to closed, connected, oriented 3-manifolds and group homomorphisms to smooth, oriented four-dimensional cobordisms. …”

Dynamics and transport near quantum-critical points by Sachdev, S

“…The physics of non-zero temperature dynamics and transport near quantum-critical points is discussed by a detailed study of the O(N)-symmetric, relativistic, quantum field theory of a N-component scalar field in d spatial dimensions. …”

Global asymmetry of many-qubit correlations: A lattice-gauge-theory approach by Williamson, MS, Ericsson, M, Johansson, M, Sjöqvist, E, Sudbery, A, Vedral, V

“…We introduce a bridge between the familiar gauge field theory approaches used in many areas of modern physics such as quantum field theory and the stochastic local operations and classical communication protocols familiar in quantum information. …”

Entanglement between Collective Operators in a Linear Harmonic Chain by Kofler, J, Vedral, V, Kim, MS, Brukner, C

Secondary products in supersymmetric field theory by Beem, C, Ben-Zvi, D, Bullimore, M, Dimofte, T, Neitzke, A

“…The product of local operators in a topological quantum field theory in dimension greater than one is commutative, as is more generally the product of extended operators of codimension greater than one. …”

Integrating by parts at finite density by Juuso Österman, Philipp Schicho, Aleksi Vuorinen

Topological defect networks for fractons of all types by David Aasen, Daniel Bulmash, Abhinav Prem, Kevin Slagle, Dominic J. Williamson

“…Fracton phases exhibit striking behavior which appears to render them beyond the standard topological quantum field theory (TQFT) paradigm for classifying gapped quantum matter. …”

Pion spectral properties above the chiral crossover of QCD by Peter Lowdon, Owe Philipsen

“…Abstract Spectral functions encode a wealth of information about the dynamics of any given system, and the determination of their non-perturbative characteristics is a long-standing problem in quantum field theory. Whilst numerical simulations of lattice QCD provide ample data for various Euclidean correlation functions, the inversion required to extract spectral functions is an ill-posed problem. …”

Crossed product algebras and generalized entropy for subregions by Shadi Ali Ahmad, Ro Jefferson

“…An early result of algebraic quantum field theory is that the algebra of any subregion in a QFT is a von Neumann factor of type III$_{1}$, in which entropy cannot be well-defined because such algebras do not admit a trace or density states. …”

Conformal boundary conditions, loop gravity and the continuum by Wolfgang Wieland

“…Abstract In this paper, we will make an attempt to clarify the relation between three-dimensional euclidean loop quantum gravity with vanishing cosmological constant and quantum field theory in the continuum. We will argue, in particular, that in three spacetime dimensions the discrete spectra for the geometric boundary observables that we find in loop quantum gravity can be understood from the quantisation of a conformal boundary field theory in the continuum without ever introducing spin networks or triangulations of space. …”
