Paper

Angular Momentum Entanglement Mediated By General Relativistic Frame Dragging

Trinidad B. Lantaño, Luciano Petruzziello, Susana F. Huelga, and Martin B. Plenio,

Quantum 10, 2042 (2026).

Current proposals to probe the quantum nature of gravity in the low-energy regime predominantly focus on the Newtonian interaction term. In this work, we present a theoretical exploration of…

Paper

Quantum linear system algorithm with optimal queries to initial state preparation

Guang Hao Low and Yuan Su,

Quantum 10, 2041 (2026).

Quantum algorithms for linear systems produce the solution state $A^{-1}|b\rangle$ by querying two oracles: $O_A$ that block encodes the coefficient matrix and $O_b$ that prepares the initial stat…

Paper

Quantum entanglement in phase space

Shuheng Liu, Jiajie Guo, Qiongyi He, and Matteo Fadel,

Quantum 10, 2040 (2026).

While commonly used entanglement criteria for continuous variable systems are based on quadrature measurements, here we study entanglement detection from measurements of the Wigner function.…

Paper

Space-Efficient Quantum Error Reduction without log Factors

Aleksandrs Belovs and Stacey Jeffery,

Quantum 10, 2039 (2026).

Given an algorithm that outputs the correct answer with bounded error, say $1/3$, it is sometimes desirable to reduce this error to some arbitrarily small $\varepsilon$ – e.g., if one wants to c…

Paper

Two-particle scattering on general graphs

Luna Lima Keller and Daniel Jost Brod,

Quantum 10, 2038 (2026).

Quantum walks in general graphs, or more specifically scattering on graphs, encompass enough complexity to perform universal quantum computation. Any given quantum circuit can be broken down…

Paper

A consolidated and accessible security proof for finite-size decoy-state quantum key distribution

Jerome Wiesemann, Jan Krause, Devashish Tupkary, Norbert Lütkenhaus, Davide Rusca, and Nino Walenta,

Quantum 10, 2037 (2026).

In recent years, quantum key distribution (QKD) has evolved from a scientific research field to a commercially available security solution, supported by mathematically formulated security pr…

Paper

The non-stabilizerness of fermionic Gaussian states

Mario Collura, Jacopo De Nardis, Vincenzo Alba, and Guglielmo Lami,

Quantum 10, 2036 (2026).

We introduce an efficient method to quantify nonstabilizerness in fermionic Gaussian states, overcoming the long-standing challenge posed by their extensive entanglement. Using a perfect sam…

Paper

High-efficiency vertical emission spin-photon interface for scalable quantum memories

Siavash Mirzaei-Ghormish, Jeddy Bennett, and Ryan M. Camacho,

Quantum 10, 2035 (2026).

We present an efficient spin-photon interface for free-space vertical emission coupling. Using a dipole model, we show that our design achieves a far-field collection efficiency of 96% at th…

Paper

A Novel Single-Layer Quantum Neural Network for Approximate SRBB-Based Unitary Synthesis

Giacomo Belli, Marco Mordacci, and Michele Amoretti,

Quantum 10, 2034 (2026).

In this work, a novel quantum neural network is introduced as a means to approximate any unitary evolution through the Standard Recursive Block Basis (SRBB) and is subsequently redesigned wi…

Paper

Snowflake: A Distributed Streaming Decoder

Tim Chan,

Quantum 10, 2033 (2026).

We design Snowflake, a quantum error correction decoder that, for the surface code under circuit-level noise, is roughly 25% more accurate than the Union-Find decoder, with a better mean run…

Paper

Adiabatic quantum state preparation in integrable models

Maximilian Lutz, Lorenzo Piroli, Georgios Styliaris, and J. Ignacio Cirac,

Quantum 10, 2032 (2026).

We propose applying the adiabatic algorithm to prepare high-energy eigenstates of integrable models on a quantum computer. We first review the standard adiabatic algorithm to prepare ground…

Paper

A posteriori error estimates for the Lindblad master equation

Paul-Louis Etienney, Rémi Robin, and Pierre Rouchon,

Quantum 10, 2031 (2026).

We are interested in the simulation of open quantum systems governed by the Lindblad master equation in an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. To simulate the solution of this equation, the…

Paper

Mitigating photon loss in linear optical quantum circuits

James Mills and Rawad Mezher,

Quantum 10, 2030 (2026).

Photon loss rates set an effective upper limit on the size of computations that can be run on current linear optical quantum devices. We present a family of techniques designed to mitigate t…

Paper

Optimizing Sparse SYK

Matthew Ding, Robbie King, Bobak T. Kiani, and Eric R. Anschuetz,

Quantum 10, 2029 (2026).

Finding the ground state of strongly-interacting fermionic systems is often the prerequisite for fully understanding both quantum chemistry and condensed matter systems. The Sachdev–Ye–Kitae…

Paper

An access model for quantum encoded data

Miguel Murça, Paul K. Faehrmann, and Yasser Omar,

Quantum 10, 2028 (2026).

We introduce and investigate a data access model $\textit{(approximate sample and query)}$ that is satisfiable by the preparation and measurement of block encoded states, as well as in context…

Paper

Agnostic Tomography of Stabilizer Product States

Sabee Grewal, Vishnu Iyer, William Kretschmer, and Daniel Liang,

Quantum 10, 2027 (2026).

We define a quantum learning task called $\textit{agnostic tomography}$, where given copies of an arbitrary state $\rho$ and a class of quantum states $\mathcal{C}$, the goal is to output a succin…
