Dirac writes that the mathematical structure of bosonic operations is one of the most fundamental results of quantum mechanics, which enables a unification of the wave and corpuscular theories of light. The technology to manipulate photons has been developed to subtract or to add single quanta from/to a bosonic system. In this talk, we discuss what we can do with the single-boson level operations for a test of principles of quantum mechanics and for quantum state engineering.
