Abstract The development of percolation theory was historically shaped by its numerous applications in various branches of science, in particular in statistical physics, and was mainly constrained to the case of Euclidean spaces. One of its central concepts, the percolation transition, is defined through the appearance of the infinite cluster, and therefore cannot be used in compact spaces, such as the Hilbert space of an N -qubit system. Here, we propose its generalization for the case of a random space covering by hyperspheres, introducing the concept of a “maximal cluster”. Our numerical calculations reproduce the standard power-law relation between the hypersphere radius and the cover density, but show that as the number of qubits increases, the exponent quickly vanishes (i.e., the exponentially increasing dimensionality of the Hilbert space makes its covering by finite-size hyperspheres inefficient). Therefore the percolation transition is not an efficient model for the behavior of multiqubit systems, compared to the random walk model in the Hilbert space. However, our approach to the percolation transition in compact metric spaces may prove useful for its rigorous treatment in other contexts.

Abstract A class of observers is introduced that interpolate smoothly between the Schwarzschild observer, stable at spatial infinity, and the Kerr–Schild observer, who falls into a black hole. For these observers, the passing of the event and inner horizon takes a finite time, which diverges logarithmically when the interpolation parameter $$sigma $$ σ goes to zero. In the field theoretic approach to gravitation, the behavior at the horizons becomes regular, making the mass of the metric well defined.

Abstract We extend our previous studies on a counter-intuitive effect in which a directed transport of a free Brownian particle induced by active fluctuations can be significantly enhanced when the particle is placed in a periodic potential. It is in clear contrast to a common situation when the velocity of the Brownian particle is notably reduced if the periodic potential is switched on. As a model of active fluctuations, we employ white Poissonian shot noise. We reconsider the case of the skew-normal amplitude distribution of shot noise and focus on the impact of statistical characteristics of its amplitude like mean, variance, and skewness on the magnitude of free particle transport enhancement. In particular, we detect intriguing oscillations of the rescaled velocity of the particle as a function of the variance. Our findings can be corroborated experimentally in both biological and artificial microscopic systems.

Abstract In this mini-review, we briefly summarize some of the main concepts and ideas behind highly dilute self-bound quantum droplets of both binary and dipolar character. The latter type of systems has more recently led to the experimental discovery of a dipolar supersolid state that allows entirely new insights on this long-sought purely quantum state of matter, with exciting prospects for fundamental research as well as future applied quantum sensing technologies. The first half of the review provides a brief history of droplets and supersolidity in various settings and also discusses the self-binding in binary quantum gases, and the second half of the review summarizes our own recent work in the field, presented at the 2022 FQMT conference in Prague.
