Efficient Quantum Circuits for the Hilbert Transform
Henry Zhang, Joseph Li·Jan 15, 2026
The quantum Fourier transform and quantum wavelet transform have been cornerstones of quantum information processing. However, for non-stationary signals and anomaly detection, the Hilbert transform can be a more powerful tool, yet no prior work has ...
Charging a quantum battery from the Bloch sphere
C. A. Downing, M. S. Ukhtary·Jan 15, 2026
We reconsider the quantum energetics and quantum thermodynamics of the charging process of a simple, two-component quantum battery model made up of a charger qubit and a single--cell battery qubit. We allow for the initial quantum state of the charge...
Widefield NV Magnetic Field Reconstruction for Probing the Meissner Effect and Critical Current Density under Pressure
Kin On Ho, Cassandra Dailledouze, Martin Schmidt +3 more·Jan 15, 2026
The spatial distribution of a magnetic field can be determined with micrometer resolution using widefield nitrogen vacancy (NV) center magnetic imaging. Nevertheless, reconstructing the magnetic field from the raw data can be challenging due to the d...
Chemically decisive benchmarks on the path to quantum utility
Srivathsan Poyyapakkam Sundar, Vibin Abraham, Bo Peng +1 more·Jan 15, 2026
Progress towards quantum utility in chemistry requires not only algorithmic advances, but also the identification of chemically meaningful problems whose electronic structure fundamentally challenges classical methods. Here, we introduce a curated hi...
Parent Hamiltonians for stabilizer quantum many-body scars
Shane Dooley·Jan 15, 2026
Quantum many-body scars (QMBS) have attracted considerable interest due to their role in weak ergodicity breaking in many-body systems. We present a general construction that embeds stabilizer states as QMBS of local Hamiltonians. The method relies o...
Towards Tensor Network Models for Low-Latency Jet Tagging on FPGAs
Alberto Coppi, Ema Puljak, Lorenzo Borella +6 more·Jan 15, 2026
We present a systematic study of Tensor Network (TN) models $\unicode{x2013}$ Matrix Product States (MPS) and Tree Tensor Networks (TTN) $\unicode{x2013}$ for real-time jet tagging in high-energy physics, with a focus on low-latency deployment on Fie...
Critical non-equilibrium phases from noisy topological memories
Amir-Reza Negari, Subhayan Sahu, Jan Behrends +2 more·Jan 15, 2026
We demonstrate the existence of an extended non-equilibrium critical phase, characterized by sub-exponential decay of conditional mutual information (CMI), in the surface code subject to heralded random Pauli measurement channels. By mapping the resu...
Elevator Codes: Concatenation for resource-efficient quantum memory under biased noise
Peter Shanahan, Diego Ruiz·Jan 15, 2026
Biased-noise qubits, in which one type of error (e.g. $X$- and $Y$-type errors) is significantly suppressed relative to the other (e.g. $Z$-type errors), can significantly reduce the overhead of quantum error correction. Codes such as the rectangular...
Exponential gain in clock precision using quantum correlated ticks
Florian Meier, Yuri Minoguchi, Gianmichele Blasi +2 more·Jan 15, 2026
Creating precise timing devices at ultra-short time scales is not just an important technological challenge, but confronts us with foundational questions about timekeeping's ultimate precision limits. Research on clocks has either focused on long-ter...
Quantum Maxwell Erasure Decoder for qLDPC codes
Bruno Costa Alves Freire, François-Marie Le Régent, Anthony Leverrier·Jan 15, 2026
We introduce a quantum Maxwell erasure decoder for CSS quantum low-density parity-check (qLDPC) codes that extends peeling with bounded guessing. Guesses are tracked symbolically and can be eliminated by restrictive checks, giving a tunable tradeoff ...
Scalable Spin Squeezing in Power-Law Interacting XXZ Models with Disorder
Samuel E. Begg, Bishal K. Ghosh, Chong Zu +2 more·Jan 15, 2026
While spin squeezing has been traditionally considered in all-to-all interacting models, recent works have shown that it can also occur in systems with power-law interactions, enabling direct tests in Rydberg atoms, trapped ions, ultracold atoms, and...
Madelung hydrodynamics of spin-orbit coupling: action principles, currents, and correlations
Cesare Tronci·Jan 15, 2026
We exploit the variational and Hamiltonian structures of quantum hydrodynamics with spin to unfold the correlation and torque mechanisms accompanying spin-orbit coupling (SOC) in electronic motion. Using Hamilton's action principle for the Pauli equa...
Constant-Depth Unitary Preparation of Dicke States
Malvika Raj Joshi, Francisca Vasconcelos·Jan 15, 2026
Dicke states serve as a critical resource in quantum metrology, communication, and computation. However, unitary preparation of Dicke states is limited to logarithmic depth in standard circuit models and existing constant-depth protocols require meas...
Mitigating nonlinear transduction noise in high-cooperativity cavity optomechanics
Daniel Allepuz-Requena, Zohran Ali, Dennis Høj +4 more·Jan 15, 2026
Coupling mechanical motion to an optical resonator enables displacement measurements approaching the standard quantum limit (SQL). However, increasing the optomechanical coupling strength will inevitably lead to probing of the nonlinear response of t...
Optimal lower bound for quantum channel tomography in away-from-boundary regime
Kean Chen, Zhicheng Zhang, Nengkun Yu·Jan 15, 2026
Consider quantum channels with input dimension $d_1$, output dimension $d_2$ and Kraus rank at most $r$. Any such channel must satisfy the constraint $rd_2\geq d_1$, and the parameter regime $rd_2=d_1$ is called the boundary regime. In this paper, we...
Breaking the Storage-Bandwidth Tradeoff in Distributed Storage with Quantum Entanglement
Lei Hu, Mohamed Nomeir, Alptug Aytekin +1 more·Jan 15, 2026
This work investigates the use of quantum resources in distributed storage systems. Consider an $(n,k,d)$ distributed storage system in which a file is stored across $n$ nodes such that any $k$ nodes suffice to reconstruct the file. When a node fails...
Efficiency, Curvature, and Complexity of Quantum Evolutions for Qubits in Nonstationary Magnetic Fields
Carlo Cafaro, James Schneeloch·Jan 15, 2026
In optimal quantum-mechanical evolutions, motion can take place along paths of minimal length within an optimal time frame. Alternatively, optimal evolutions may occur along established paths without any waste of energy resources and achieving 100% s...
Geometric Aspects of Entanglement Generating Hamiltonian Evolutions
Carlo Cafaro, James Schneeloch·Jan 15, 2026
We examine the pertinent geometric characteristics of entanglement that arise from stationary Hamiltonian evolutions transitioning from separable to maximally entangled two-qubit quantum states. From a geometric perspective, each evolution is charact...
Counterdiabatic driving for random-gap Landau-Zener transitions
Georgios Theologou, Mikkel F. Andersen, Sandro Wimberger·Jan 15, 2026
The Landau--Zener (LZ) model describes a two-level quantum system that undergoes an avoided crossing. In the adiabatic limit, the transition probability vanishes. An auxiliary control field $H_\text{CD}$ can be reverse-engineered so that the full Ham...
Symmetry-Based Perspectives on Hamiltonian Quantum Search Algorithms and Schrodinger's Dynamics between Orthogonal States
Carlo Cafaro, James Schneeloch·Jan 15, 2026
It is known that the continuous-time variant of Grover's search algorithm is characterized by quantum search frameworks that are governed by stationary Hamiltonians, which result in search trajectories confined to the two-dimensional subspace of the ...
