Kostant relation in filtered randomized benchmarking for passive bosonic devices

Abstract

We reduce the cost of the current bosonic randomized benchmarking proposal. First, we introduce a filter function using immanants. With this filter, we avoid the need to compute Clebsch-Gordan coefficients. Our filter uses the same data as the original, although we propose a distinct data collection process that requires a single type of measurement. Furthermore, we argue that weak coherent states and intensity measurements are sufficient to proceed with the characterization. Our work could then allow simpler platforms to be characterized and simplify the data analysis process.
