    Abstract Steady technological advances are paving the way for the implementation of the quantum internet, a network of locations interconnected by quantum channels. Here we propose a model to simulate a quantum internet based on optical fibers and employ network-theory techniques to characterize the statistical properties of the photonic networks it generates. Our model predicts a continuous phase transition between a disconnected and a highly connected phase and that the typical photonic networks do not present the small world property. We compute the critical exponents characterizing the phase transition, provide quantitative estimates for the minimum density of nodes needed to have a fully connected network and for the average distance between nodes. Our results thus provide quantitative benchmarks for the development of a quantum internet.

    Abstract The ability to witness nonlocal correlations lies at the core of foundational aspects of quantum mechanics and its application in the processing of information. Commonly, this is achieved via the violation of Bell inequalities. Unfortunately, however, their systematic derivation quickly becomes unfeasible as the scenario of interest grows in complexity. To cope with that, here, we propose a machine learning approach for the detection and quantification of nonlocality. It consists of an ensemble of multilayer perceptrons blended with genetic algorithms achieving a high performance in a number of relevant Bell scenarios. As we show, not only can the machine learn to quantify nonlocality, but discover new kinds of nonlocal correlations inaccessible with other current methods as well. We also apply our framework to distinguish between classical, quantum, and even postquantum correlations. Our results offer a novel method and a proof-of-principle for the relevance of machine learning for understanding nonlocality.

    Abstract In a Bell experiment, it is natural to seek a causal account of correlations wherein only a common cause acts on the outcomes. For this causal structure, Bell inequality violations can be explained only if causal dependencies are modeled as intrinsically quantum. There also exists a vast landscape of causal structures beyond Bell that can witness nonclassicality, in some cases without even requiring free external inputs. Here, we undertake a photonic experiment realizing one such example: the triangle causal network, consisting of three measurement stations pairwise connected by common causes and no external inputs. To demonstrate the nonclassicality of the data, we adapt and improve three known techniques: (i) a machine-learning-based heuristic test, (ii) a data-seeded inflation technique generating polynomial Bell-type inequalities and (iii) entropic inequalities. The demonstrated experimental and data analysis tools are broadly applicable paving the way for future networks of growing complexity.

    Abstract In this work we propose a data-driven age-structured census-based SIRD-like epidemiological model capable of forecasting the spread of COVID-19 in Brazil. We model the current scenario of closed schools and universities and voluntary home quarantine to show that it is still not enough to protect the health system by explicitly computing the demand for hospital intensive care unit beds. We also show that an urgent intense quarantine might be the only solution to avoid the collapse of the health system and, consequently, to minimize the quantity of deaths. On the other hand, we demonstrate that the relaxation of the already imposed control measures in the next days would be catastrophic.

    Abstract In this work we propose a data-driven age-structured census-based SIRD-like epidemiological model capable of forecasting the spread of COVID-19 in Brazil. We model the current scenario of closed schools and universities, social distancing of people above sixty years old and voluntary home quarantine to show that it is still not enough to protect the health system by explicitly computing the demand for hospital intensive care units. We also show that an urgent intense quarantine might be the only solution to avoid the collapse of the health system and, consequently, to minimize the quantity of deaths. On the other hand, we demonstrate that the relaxation of the already imposed control measures in the next days would be catastrophic.

    Abstract The concept of wave-particle duality, which is a key element of quantum theory, has been remarkably found to manifest itself in several experimental realizations as in the famous double-slit experiment. In this specific case, a single particle seems to travel through two separated slits simultaneously. Nevertheless, it is never possible to measure it in both slits, which naturally appears as a manifestation of the collapse postulate. In this respect, one could as well ask if it is possible to "perceive" the presence of the particle at the two slits simultaneously, once its collapse could be avoided. In this article, we use the recently proposed entanglement mediation protocol to provide a positive answer to this question. It is shown that a photon which behaves like a wave, i.e., which seems to be present in two distant locations at the same time, can modify two existing physical realities in these locations. Calculations of the "weak trace" left by such photon also enforce the validity of the present argumentation.

    Abstract Luminescence thermometry has been extensively exploited in the last decades both from the fundamental and applied point of views. The application of photoluminescent nanoparticles on the microscopic level based on rare-earth doped (RED) nanostructures is yet a challenge. Distinct underlying physical mechanisms in the RED nanomaterials have been exploited, such as intensity ratio between radiative transitions associated with thermally coupled energy levels, energy peak and lifetime of an excited state variations with the temperature. The drawbacks of such systems are the relatively low thermal sensitivity (Sr), and the large temperature uncertainty. To overcome that, several research groups have been seeking new functionalized materials. The majority of the efforts have been directed towards increasing Sr with record around 10 %{\deg}C-1, which is, however, considered unsatisfactory. We propose the use of an automated machine learning tool to retrieve an ideal pipeline improving the response of photoluminescence thermometers. As a proof-of-concept, we used Nd3+-doped YAG nanoparticles, excited at 760 nm, and the photoluminescence spectra in the range from 860 nm to 960 nm as input parameters. In addition to the improvement in the accuracy (> 5.5x over traditional methods), the implementation is very simple, without the requirement of any deconvolution procedure or knowledge of any underlying physical mechanism. Our findings demonstrate that this approach is resilient to natural variances across various spectral acquisitions, which may otherwise lead to an inaccurate estimation of temperature, opening the door for real-time applications. Our open-source code is designed to be accessible to individuals without programming experience.
