International research at the University of Padova has been particularly successful over the last year. The University now runs 196 projects within the 7th Framework Programme and almost 50 further European research programmes, supported by an overall EU contribution close to € 72 Million over the last seven years. The remarkable success of the University of Padova in the research field has been recently highlighted by the results of the national Research Quality Evaluation (VQR) carried out by the ANVUR (National Agency for the Evaluation of Universities and Research Institutes) for the period 2004-2010. The main role of the ANVUR is to assess the quality of scientific research carried out by universities as well as by public and private research institutions. The VQR results are the outcome of a huge effort by the Italian Ministry for Education, University and Research, encompassing the evaluation of 185.000 scientific products and the involvement of 15.000 international referees. At the end of this process, in July 2013, the University of Padova obtained extraordinary results, being ranked in 1st position among Universities of comparable size in 7 out of the 14 scientific areas defined in the evaluation process, namely in Physics, Earth Sciences, Biology, Medicine, Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, Industrial and Information Engineering, Economics and Statistics, as well as in second position in the following areas Chemistry, Philosophy, History, Psychology and Pedagogy and in third position in Jurisprudence. The large variety of projects funded by various research programmes demonstrates the excellence of the University’s researchers in most branches of science. I remain firmly convinced of the importance of participation in international research and I am sure that our recent results will pave the way for an ever-growing research commitment within the framework of Horizon 2020. I would like to express my gratitude to all colleagues involved in research activities and to our administrative staff for the essential support they continue to provide. The University of Padua looks to the future with great confidence, owing to the high level of staff skills and to a strong commitment to excellence in international scientific research.

  • Quantum Discrimination of Noisy Photon-Added Coherent States Stefano Guerrini , Student Member, IEEE, Moe Z
    IEEE JOURNAL ON SELECTED AREAS IN INFORMATION THEORY, VOL. 1, NO. 2, AUGUST 2020 469 Quantum Discrimination of Noisy Photon-Added Coherent States Stefano Guerrini , Student Member, IEEE, Moe Z. Win , Fellow, IEEE, Marco Chiani , Fellow, IEEE,and Andrea Conti , Senior Member, IEEE Abstract—Quantum state discrimination (QSD) is a key enabler in quantum sensing and networking, for which we envision the utility of non-coherent quantum states such as photon-added coherent states (PACSs). This paper addresses the problem of discriminating between two noisy PACSs. First, we provide representation of PACSs affected by thermal noise during state preparation in terms of Fock basis and quasi-probability distributions. Then, we demonstrate that the use of PACSs instead of coherent states can significantly reduce the error probability in QSD. Finally, we quantify the effects of phase diffusion and pho- ton loss on QSD performance. The findings of this paper reveal the utility of PACSs in several applications involving QSD. Index Terms—Quantum state discrimination, photon-added coherent state, quantum noise, quantum communications. I. INTRODUCTION Fig. 1. Illustration of binary QSD with PACSs: hypotheses are described by UANTUM STATE DISCRIMINATION (QSD) the Wigner functions corresponding to the quantum states. Q addresses the problem of identifying an unknown state among a set of quantum states [1]–[3]. QSD enables several applications including quantum communications [4]– [6], quantum sensing [7]–[9], quantum illumination [10]–[12], QSD applications. In particular, continuous-variable quantum quantum cryptography [13]–[15], quantum networks [16]– states have been considered in quantum optics as they supply [18], and quantum computing [19]–[21].

  • Workshop Ferrara & Rovigo, Italy
    Workshop “Making the Circular Economy work for Sustainability: From theory to practice” Ferrara & Rovigo, Italy - February 23-25, 2021 ~ Call for Papers The Centre for Research in Circular economy, Innovation and SMEs (CERCIS) and SEEDS (Sustainability, Environmental Economics and Dynamics Studies) of the University of Ferrara are glad to announce their joint organization of an international Workshop titled Making the circular economy work for sustainability: from theory to practice The circular economy (CE) is pervasively considered and often implicitly assumed to be a novel and major avenue towards sustainability. Academic scholars and (professional and policy) practitioners are unanimously cavalier about this relationship. On a deeper scrutiny, however, the link between CE and sustainability appears weak, if not even elusive. Starting from these premises, the Workshop aims at stimulating the theoretical and empirical debate on the mechanisms that eventually enable us to establish that a relationship between CE and sustainability does actually exist, and to characterize its nature. Such a debate is crucial to achieve a deeper knowledge on how policy makers can best use the CE to promote sustainability. The Workshop will start with the official presentation of the 2020 release of the EEA (European Environment Agency) Sustainability Report, which is titled Sustainability transition in Europe in the age of demographic and technological change. Implications for fiscal revenues and financial investments. The EEA Report, to which SEEDS members have contributed, will be presented by Stefan Speck (EEA). The Workshop calls for papers on the several specificities of this broad issue, among which the following represent a non-exclusive list: the economic dividend of the circular economy; the environmental effects of the circular economy; the impacts of the circular economy on society; firms and households as main enablers of a sustainable circular economy; policies for a sustainable circular economy.
