Typical Output States of Monitored Random Clifford Circuits: A Graph-Theoretic Approach
Yu-Xuan Zhang, Yu-Xiang Zhang·Aug 4, 2026
In many-body physics, an explicit wavefunction often provides the most thorough understanding, yet for monitored random Clifford circuit it has remained missing. Here we develop a framework that grants direct access to the typical output states. As e...
Heisenberg scaling under collective non-parallel directional noise via geometric state design
Francisco Riberi, Lorenza Viola, Milad Marvian·Aug 3, 2026
Spin-squeezed states enable entanglement-enhanced frequency estimation; however, the achievable performance is limited in practice by decoherence. We study the problem of parameter estimation under \emph{classical collective noise} that acts along a ...
Better accuracy with fewer qubits: Single-particle basis set optimization for quantum chemistry on quantum computers
Subimal Deb, V. S. Prasannaa·Aug 3, 2026
In spite of recent advances, quantum computers are expected to be sufficiently noisy in the coming few years to the extent of limiting quantum chemical calculations to relatively small number of orbitals. However, even with reasonable quality single ...
Optimality of Gaussian Entanglement of Formation
Gerardo Adesso·Aug 3, 2026
We prove that the entanglement of formation of every two-mode Gaussian state coincides with its Gaussian restriction, solving a longstanding open problem in continuous variable quantum information theory. The key result is a sharp affine relation bet...
Thermalizing Stochastic Programs
Mirko Amico, Andraž Jelinčič, Colin Oscar Nancarrow +6 more·Aug 3, 2026
We present a set of tools for mapping general stochastic programs to thermodynamic hardware designed for energy-efficient stochastic sampling. Given a target stochastic program expressed as a Directed Factor Graph (DFG) of stochastic channels, or equ...
A Framework for Stochastic Differentiable Programming
Guillaume Verdon, Leo Tyrpak, Owen Lockwood +5 more·Aug 3, 2026
We introduce Parametrized Stochastic Circuits (PSCs), a gate-based intermediate representation for programmable stochastic dynamics in which typed local stochastic kernels with tunable parameters compose over explicit binary, categorical, and continu...
Duck hunting with quantum mechanics
Artem Alexandrov·Aug 1, 2026
We bridge two sides of singular perturbation theory: the classical theory of slow-fast systems and the semi-classical approach to quantum mechanical systems. For a specific but physically important class of dynamical systems, we show that purely clas...
Benchmarking Quantum Simulations of the Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick Model Using Large Tensor Networks
Maggie Bao, Rushil Dandamudi, Jerimiah Wright +4 more·Jul 30, 2026
As quantum computing matures, it is critical to benchmark its real-world problem solving performance against competitive classical methods, such as tensor networks. In this work, we leverage the Density Matrix Renormalization Group (DMRG) algorithm t...
Entanglement Swapping with Integrated Narrowband Photon Sources for Quantum Repeaters
Mingsong Wu, Leili Esmaeilifar, Rui Ning Wang +3 more·Jul 30, 2026
Promising implementations of first generation quantum repeaters are predicted to require atomic-based quantum memory systems interfaced with photonic sources. Integrated photonics provides a promising solution for fibre-based, field-deployed operatio...
Quantum coherence and entanglement in wireless quantum batteries
Jun-Jie Jiang, Jin-Di Cao, Yu-Fei Zhang +2 more·Jul 30, 2026
We investigate the charging dynamics and thermodynamic performance of a wireless quantum battery system mediated by a common structured bosonic environment. By employing a unified resource-theoretic analysis, we elucidate the distinct roles of non-Ma...
The Klein-Gordon-Fock theory as a one-particle relativistic quantum mechanics
N. L. Chuprikov·Jul 29, 2026
The Klein-Gordon-Fock (KGF) theory with the vector potential is presented as a one particle relativistic quantum mechanics (QM). First, the KGF equation is written in a Hamiltonian form, in spinor space; unlike the Feshbach-Villars approach, the Hami...
Classically Augmented Zero-Noise Extrapolation
Timon Scheiber·Jul 28, 2026
We investigate a hybrid quantum-classical approach to quantum error mitigation. We propose Classically Augmented Zero-Noise Extrapolation, a hybrid error-mitigation method in which high-noise Richardson extrapolation nodes are replaced by classically...
The Emergence of Time from Quantum Records: Actualization and the Surprisal Clock
Lionel Martellini·Jul 28, 2026
We develop a record-based account of internal time in quantum mechanics. Persistent records first define an ordinal chronology through inclusion of their accumulated Boolean algebras. On a specified record filtration, we prove that, under three minim...
Exact Conditional Momentum Moments for Nonlinear Homodyne Trajectories
Jacob Emerson·Jul 28, 2026
Simulation of nonlinear stochastic master equations generally requires trajectory-level evolution of large Hilbert-space density matrices, making strongly nonlinear continuously monitored systems computationally challenging. Here we identify an exact...
Quantum detection of CP violation in the $t\bar{t}$ system: tomography
Priyanka Lamba, Fabio Maltoni, Olimpia Miniati +1 more·Jul 27, 2026
We develop a quantum-tomographic framework for determining whether possible CP-odd effects in $t\bar t$ events originate in production, in decay, or in both. In the narrow-width approximation, the process $I\to t\bar t\to b\ell^+ν\,\bar b\ell^-\barν$...
Quantum detection of CP violation in the $t\bar{t}$ system: production
Priyanka Lamba, Fabio Maltoni, Olimpia Miniati +1 more·Jul 27, 2026
We investigate how possible new CP-violating top-quark interactions are encoded in the quantum state of a produced $t\bar t$ pair. We derive analytic expressions for the production density matrix in several benchmark channels relevant to hadron, lept...
A Model Predictive Control-Inspired Quantum Algorithm
Dominic Messina, Alicia B. Magann, Mohan Sarovar +1 more·Jul 27, 2026
We introduce a new hybrid quantum-classical algorithm inspired by an advanced control strategy known as model predictive control (MPC). This algorithm unifies the optimization-based design of variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) with the feedback-ba...
Strategies for quantum-enabled Bitcoin miners
Zach Manson, Barry C. Sanders·Jul 27, 2026
We study the impact that two miners equipped with quantum computers purpose-built for quantum Bitcoin mining will have on the 51% attack threshold of the Bitcoin network, given that the miners are playing a competitive game against each other to be t...
Optomechanical systems with a Fano membrane in the middle
Lei Du, Aymeric Frerejean, Witlef Wieczorek +2 more·Jul 24, 2026
Conventional membrane-in-the-middle (MIM) optomechanical systems offer limited control over the optical linewidth, which can limit their performance when operating in the unresolved-sideband regime. We investigate cavity optomechanics with a photonic...
Flow-based Phase-space Tomography of Continuous-variable Quantum States
Owen Dugan, Rumen Dangovski, Peter Y. Lu +1 more·Jul 23, 2026
Continuous-variable quantum state tomography is limited by the cost of resolving non-Gaussian structure in high-dimensional phase space. We introduce QST-Flow, a quantum state tomography framework via flow-based generative modeling that represents ex...
