Process-tensor approach to full counting statistics of charge transport in quantum many-body circuits
Hari Kumar Yadalam, Mark T. Mitchison·Mar 30, 2026
We introduce a numerical tensor-network method to compute the statistics of the charge transferred across an interface partitioning an interacting one-dimensional many-body lattice system with $U(1)$ symmetry. Our approach is based on a matrix-produc...
Central Limit Theorems for Outcome Records in Disordered Quantum Trajectories
Lubashan Pathirana·Mar 30, 2026
We prove annealed central limit theorems for finite pattern counts in the measurement record of discrete-time quantum trajectories generated by repeated measurements in a disordered environment. Under summable mixing assumptions on the environment an...
Real Variance-Based Variational Quantum Eigensolver for Non-Hermitian Matrices
Durgesh Pandey, Ankit Kumar Das, P. Arumugam·Mar 30, 2026
Non-Hermitian operators naturally arise in the description of open quantum systems, which exhibit features such as resonances and decay processes, where the associated eigenvalues are complex. Standard quantum algorithms, including the Variational Qu...
Quantum Optical Neuron for Image Classification via Multiphoton Interference
Giorgio Minati, Simone Roncallo, Simone Scrofana +6 more·Mar 30, 2026
The rapid growth of machine learning is increasingly constrained by the energy and bandwidth limits of classical hardware. Optical and quantum technologies offer an alternative route, enabling high-dimensional, parallel information processing directl...
Effects of measurements on entanglement dynamics for $1+1$D $\mathbb Z_2$ lattice gauge theory
Nilachal Chakrabarti, Nisa Ara, Neha Nirbhan +2 more·Mar 30, 2026
The $1+1$ dimensional $\mathbb Z_2$ gauge theory is the simplest model that allows for quantum simulation to probe the fundamental aspects of a gauge theory coupled with dynamical fermions. To reliably benchmark such a system, it is crucial to unders...
Non-stabilizerness and U(1) symmetry in chaotic many-body quantum systems
Daniele Iannotti, Angelo Russotto, Barbara Jasser +2 more·Mar 30, 2026
We present exact, closed-form results for the non-stabilizerness of random pure states subject to a U(1) symmetry constraint. Using stabilizer entropy as our non-stabilizerness monotone, we derive the average and the variance for U(1)-constrained Haa...
Higgs Boson Spookiness: Probing Quantum Nonlocality with Spacetime-Resolved $H\rightarrowτ^+τ^-$ Decays
Lawrence Lee, John Lawless, Caroline Riggall·Mar 30, 2026
We demonstrate that a future precision $ee$ Higgs factory would be able to perform a spacetime-resolved test of quantum nonlocality in Higgs boson decays. In simulated $ee\rightarrow ZH \rightarrow (μμ)(ττ)$ events at $\sqrt{s}=240$ GeV, we reconstru...
Quantum Suicide in Many-Worlds Implies P=NP
Veronika Baumann, Alberto Rolandi·Mar 30, 2026
In this paper we propose a totally serious algorithm to solve NP problems in polynomial time provided one is willing to wager the fate of all observers in the universe on the many-world interpretation of quantum theory being correct.
Color code off-the-hook: avoiding hook errors with a single auxiliary per plaquette
Gilad Kishony, Austin Fowler·Mar 30, 2026
Syndrome extraction in the planar color code is complicated by high weight stabilizers and hook errors that can reduce the circuit-level distance. With a single auxiliary qubit per plaquette, any spatially uniform circuit halves the circuit-level dis...
Symmetry-Fractionalized Skin Effects in Non-Hermitian Luttinger Liquids
Christopher Ekman, Emil J. Bergholtz, Paolo Molignini·Mar 30, 2026
In one dimension, strongly correlated gapless systems are highly constrained due to conformal invariance, leading to the decoupling of low energy degrees of freedom corresponding to different symmetry sectors. The most familiar example of this is spi...
Securing Elliptic Curve Cryptocurrencies against Quantum Vulnerabilities: Resource Estimates and Mitigations
Ryan Babbush, Adam Zalcman, Craig Gidney +6 more·Mar 30, 2026
This whitepaper seeks to elucidate implications that the capabilities of developing quantum architectures have on blockchain vulnerabilities and mitigation strategies. First, we provide new resource estimates for breaking the 256-bit Elliptic Curve D...
Topological Optical Chirality Dichroism
Wojciech J. Jankowski, Giandomenico Palumbo, Robert-Jan Slager·Mar 30, 2026
We report on a universal topological dichroism of chiral three-dimensional systems in response to the chirality of light. We show that chiral topological invariants result in integer-quantized dichroic excitation rate differences. Moreover, we demons...
Construction and characterization of measures in block coherence resource theory
Xiangyu Chen, Qiang Lei·Mar 30, 2026
Quantum coherence, as a direct manifestation of the quantum superposition principle, is a crucial resource in quantum information processing. Block coherence resource theory generalizes the traditional coherence framework by defining coherence via a ...
Modeling Quantum Optomechanical STIRAP
Ian Hedgepeth, Youqiu Zhan, Vitaly Fedoseev +1 more·Mar 30, 2026
Quantum optomechanical STIRAP (Stimulated Raman Adiabatic Passage) is investigated for a system of two mechanical modes coupled to an optical mode. We show analytically that in a system without loss, fractional STIRAP can generate a mechanical Bell s...
Efficient and Practical Black-Box Verification of Quantum Metric Learning Algorithms
Ahmed Shokry, Movahhed Sadeghi, Mahmut Kandemir·Mar 30, 2026
Quantum metric learning enhances machine learning by mapping classical data to a quantum Hilbert space with maximal separation between classes. However, on current NISQ hardware, this mapping process itself is prone to errors and could be fundamental...
Qubit-efficient embedding of parity-encoded Hamiltonians in quantum annealers
Ryoji Miyazaki·Mar 30, 2026
The Sourlas-Lechner-Hauke-Zoller (SLHZ) scheme for quantum annealing uses the parity to encode logical variables and has several advantages, but it has not been implemented for large-scale quantum annealers. If the SLHZ-based approach can be implemen...
Invariant measures of randomized quantum trajectories
Tristan Benoist, Sascha Lill, Cornelia Vogel·Mar 30, 2026
Quantum trajectories are Markov chains modeling quantum systems subjected to repeated indirect measurements. Their stationary regime depends on what observables are measured on the probes used to indirectly measure the system. In this article we expl...
Hunting for quantum advantage in electronic structure calculations is a highly non-trivial task
Örs Legeza, Andor Menczer, Miklós Antal Werner +7 more·Mar 30, 2026
In light of major developments over the past decades in both quantum computing and simulations on classical hardware, it is a serious challenge to identify a real-world problem where quantum advantage is expected to appear. In quantum chemistry, elec...
Neural Quantum States in Non-Stabilizer Regimes: Benchmarks with Atomic Nuclei
James W. T. Keeble, Alessandro Lovato, Caroline E. P. Robin·Mar 30, 2026
As neural networks are known to efficiently represent classes of tensor-network states as well as volume-law-entangled states, identifying which properties determine the representational capabilities of neural quantum states (NQS) remains an open que...
Shor's algorithm is possible with as few as 10,000 reconfigurable atomic qubits
Madelyn Cain, Qian Xu, Robbie King +6 more·Mar 30, 2026
Quantum computers have the potential to perform computational tasks beyond the reach of classical machines. A prominent example is Shor's algorithm for integer factorization and discrete logarithms, which is of both fundamental importance and practic...
