Paper

Photon-number moments and cumulants of Gaussian states

Yanic Cardin and Nicolás Quesada,

Quantum 8, 1521 (2024).

We develop closed-form expressions for the moments and cumulants of Gaussian states when measured in the photon-number basis. We express the photon-number moments of a Gaussian state in term…

Paper

Scattering wave packets of hadrons in gauge theories: Preparation on a quantum computer

Zohreh Davoudi, Chung-Chun Hsieh, and Saurabh V. Kadam,

Quantum 8, 1520 (2024).

Quantum simulation holds promise of enabling a complete description of high-energy scattering processes rooted in gauge theories of the Standard Model. A first step in such simulations is pr…

Paper

Phase-space negativity as a computational resource for quantum kernel methods

Ulysse Chabaud, Roohollah Ghobadi, Salman Beigi, and Saleh Rahimi-Keshari,

Quantum 8, 1519 (2024).

Quantum kernel methods are a proposal for achieving quantum computational advantage in machine learning. They are based on a hybrid classical-quantum computation where a function called the…

Paper

Epistemic Boundaries and Quantum Uncertainty: What Local Observers Can (Not) Predict

Johannes Fankhauser,

Quantum 8, 1518 (2024).

One of quantum theory's salient features is its apparent indeterminism, i.e. measurement outcomes are typically probabilistic. We formally define and address whether this uncertainty is unav…

Paper

Asymmetry activation and its relation to coherence under permutation operation

Masahito Hayashi,

Quantum 8, 1517 (2024).

A Dicke state and its decohered state are invariant for permutation. However, when another qubits state to each of them is attached, the whole state is not invariant for permutation, and has…

Paper

Benchmarking a trapped-ion quantum computer with 30 qubits

Jwo-Sy Chen, Erik Nielsen, Matthew Ebert, Volkan Inlek, Kenneth Wright, Vandiver Chaplin, Andrii Maksymov, Eduardo Páez, Amrit Poudel, Peter Maunz, and John Gamble,

Quantum 8, 1516 (2024).

Quantum computers are rapidly becoming more capable, with dramatic increases in both qubit count [1] and quality [2]. Among different hardware approaches, trapped-ion quantum processors are…

Paper

Maximal Elements of Quantum Communication

Teiko Heinosaari and Oskari Kerppo,

Quantum 8, 1515 (2024).

A prepare-and-measure scenario is naturally described by a communication matrix that collects all conditional outcome probabilities of the scenario into a row-stochastic matrix. The set of a…

Paper

Network-Device-Independent Certification of Causal Nonseparability

Hippolyte Dourdent, Alastair A. Abbott, Ivan Šupić, and Cyril Branciard,

Quantum 8, 1514 (2024).

Causal nonseparability is the property underlying quantum processes incompatible with a definite causal order. So far it has remained a central open question as to whether any process with a…

Paper

Universal quantum processors in spin systems via robust local pulse sequences

Matteo Votto, Johannes Zeiher, and Benoît Vermersch,

Quantum 8, 1513 (2024).

We propose a protocol to realize quantum simulation and computation in spin systems with long-range interactions. Our approach relies on the local addressing of single spins with external fi…

Paper

Comment on “Multivariable quantum signal processing (M-QSP): prophecies of the two-headed oracle”

Hitomi Mori, Kaoru Mizuta, and Keisuke Fujii,

Quantum 8, 1512 (2024).

Multivariable Quantum Signal Processing (M-QSP) [1] is expected to provide an efficient means to handle polynomial transformations of multiple variables simultaneously. However, we identifie…

Paper

Hardness results for decoding the surface code with Pauli noise

Alex Fischer and Akimasa Miyake,

Quantum 8, 1511 (2024).

Real quantum computers will be subject to complicated, qubit-dependent noise, instead of simple noise such as depolarizing noise with the same strength for all qubits. We can do quantum erro…

Paper

Deterministic Bethe state preparation

David Raveh and Rafael I. Nepomechie,

Quantum 8, 1510 (2024).

We present an explicit quantum circuit that prepares an arbitrary $U(1)$-eigenstate on a quantum computer, including the exact eigenstates of the spin-$1/2 XXZ$ quantum spin chain with either op…

Paper

Limitations for Quantum Algorithms to Solve Turbulent and Chaotic Systems

Dylan Lewis, Stephan Eidenbenz, Balasubramanya Nadiga, and Yiğit Subaşı,

Quantum 8, 1509 (2024).

We investigate the limitations of quantum computers for solving nonlinear dynamical systems. In particular, we tighten the worst-case bounds of the quantum Carleman linearisation (QCL) algor…

Paper

Quantum networks theory

Pablo Arrighi, Amélia Durbec, and Matt Wilson,

Quantum 8, 1508 (2024).

The formalism of quantum theory over discrete systems is extended in two significant ways. First, quantum evolutions are generalized to act over entire network configurations, so that nodes…

Paper

Quantum Universally Composable Oblivious Linear Evaluation

Manuel B. Santos, Paulo Mateus, and Chrysoula Vlachou,

Quantum 8, 1507 (2024).

Oblivious linear evaluation is a generalization of oblivious transfer, whereby two distrustful parties obliviously compute a linear function, $f (x) = ax + b$, i.e., each one provides their in…

Paper

Decoding quantum color codes with MaxSAT

Lucas Berent, Lukas Burgholzer, Peter-Jan H.S. Derks, Jens Eisert, and Robert Wille,

Quantum 8, 1506 (2024).

In classical computing, error-correcting codes are well established and are ubiquitous both in theory and practical applications. For quantum computing, error-correction is essential as well…
