Paper

Virtual mitigation of coherent non-adiabatic transitions by echo verification

Benjamin F. Schiffer, Dyon van Vreumingen, Jordi Tura, and Stefano Polla,

Quantum 8, 1346 (2024).

Transitions out of the ground space limit the performance of quantum adiabatic algorithms, while hardware imperfections impose stringent limitations on the circuit depth. We propose an adiab…

Paper

Partial Syndrome Measurement for Hypergraph Product Codes

Noah Berthusen and Daniel Gottesman,

Quantum 8, 1345 (2024).

Hypergraph product codes are a promising avenue to achieving fault-tolerant quantum computation with constant overhead. When embedding these and other constant-rate qLDPC codes into 2D, a si…

Paper

CSS code surgery as a universal construction

Alexander Cowtan and Simon Burton,

Quantum 8, 1344 (2024).

We define code maps between Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) codes using maps between chain complexes, and describe code surgery between such codes using a specific colimit in the category of ch…

Paper

Hybrid discrete-continuous compilation of trapped-ion quantum circuits with deep reinforcement learning

Francesco Preti, Michael Schilling, Sofiene Jerbi, Lea M. Trenkwalder, Hendrik Poulsen Nautrup, Felix Motzoi, and Hans J. Briegel,

Quantum 8, 1343 (2024).

Shortening quantum circuits is crucial to reducing the destructive effect of environmental decoherence and enabling useful algorithms. Here, we demonstrate an improvement in such compilation…

Paper

Kerr-effect-based quantum logical gates in decoherence-free subspace

Fang-Fang Du, Gang Fan, and Xue-Mei Ren,

Quantum 8, 1342 (2024).

The decoherence effect caused by the coupling between the system and the environment undoubtedly leads to the errors in efficient implementations of two (or three) qubit logical gates in qua…

Paper

Minimal-noise estimation of noncommuting rotations of a spin

Jakub Czartowski, Karol Życzkowski, and Daniel Braun,

Quantum 8, 1341 (2024).

We propose an analogue of $\text{SU}(1,1)$ interferometry to measure rotation of a spin by using two-spin squeezed states. Attainability of the Heisenberg limit for the estimation of the rotat…

Paper

Introduction to Haar Measure Tools in Quantum Information: A Beginner’s Tutorial

Antonio Anna Mele,

Quantum 8, 1340 (2024).

The Haar measure plays a vital role in quantum information, but its study often requires a deep understanding of representation theory, posing a challenge for beginners. This tutorial aims t…

Paper

Tensor network decompositions for absolutely maximally entangled states

Balázs Pozsgay and Ian M. Wanless,

Quantum 8, 1339 (2024).

Absolutely maximally entangled (AME) states of $k$ qudits (also known as perfect tensors) are quantum states that have maximal entanglement for all possible bipartitions of the sites/parties.…

Paper

Quantum time dilation in a gravitational field

Jerzy Paczos, Kacper Dębski, Piotr T. Grochowski, Alexander R. H. Smith, and Andrzej Dragan,

Quantum 8, 1338 (2024).

According to relativity, the reading of an ideal clock is interpreted as the elapsed proper time along its classical trajectory through spacetime. In contrast, quantum theory allows the asso…

Paper

Robust sparse IQP sampling in constant depth

Louis Paletta, Anthony Leverrier, Alain Sarlette, Mazyar Mirrahimi, and Christophe Vuillot,

Quantum 8, 1337 (2024).

Between NISQ (noisy intermediate scale quantum) approaches without any proof of robust quantum advantage and fully fault-tolerant quantum computation, we propose a scheme to achieve a provab…

Paper

Energy conservation and fluctuation theorem are incompatible for quantum work

Karen V. Hovhannisyan and Alberto Imparato,

Quantum 8, 1336 (2024).

Characterizing fluctuations of work in coherent quantum systems is notoriously problematic. Here we reveal the ultimate source of the problem by proving that ($\mathfrak{A}$) energy conservati…

Paper

Relational superposition measurements with a material quantum ruler

Hui Wang, Flaminia Giacomini, Franco Nori, and Miles P. Blencowe,

Quantum 8, 1335 (2024).

In physics, it is crucial to identify operational measurement procedures to give physical meaning to abstract quantities. There has been significant effort to define time operationally using…

Paper

Check-Agnosia based Post-Processor for Message-Passing Decoding of Quantum LDPC Codes

Julien du Crest, Francisco Garcia-Herrero, Mehdi Mhalla, Valentin Savin, and Javier Valls,

Quantum 8, 1334 (2024).

The inherent degeneracy of quantum low-density parity-check codes poses a challenge to their decoding, as it significantly degrades the error-correction performance of classical message-pass…

Paper

Custom Bell inequalities from formal sums of squares

Victor Barizien, Pavel Sekatski, and Jean-Daniel Bancal,

Quantum 8, 1333 (2024).

Bell inequalities play a key role in certifying quantum properties for device-independent quantum information protocols. It is still a major challenge, however, to devise Bell inequalities t…

Paper

Certifying long-range quantum correlations through routed Bell tests

Edwin Peter Lobo, Jef Pauwels, and Stefano Pironio,

Quantum 8, 1332 (2024).

Losses in the transmission channel, which increase with distance, pose a major obstacle to photonics demonstrations of quantum nonlocality and its applications. Recently, Chaturvedi, Viola,…

Paper

A generic quantum Wielandt’s inequality

Yifan Jia and Angela Capel,

Quantum 8, 1331 (2024).

Quantum Wielandt's inequality gives an optimal upper bound on the minimal length $k$ such that length-$k$ products of elements in a generating system span $M_n(\mathbb{C})$. It is conjectured that…
