Two bases suffice for QMA1-completeness

Henry Ma, Anand Natarajan·Sep 29, 2025

We introduce a basis-restricted variant of the Quantum-k-SAT problem, in which each term in the input Hamiltonian is required to be diagonal in either the standard or Hadamard basis. Our main result is that the Quantum-6-SAT problem with this basis r...

Probabilistic Graybox Characterization of Quantum Devices with Bayesian Neural Networks

Poramet Pathumsoot, Michal Hajdušek, Rodney Van Meter·Sep 29, 2025

While the Graybox characterization method allows for implicit noise models and is platform-agnostic, the method lacks uncertainty quantification. Characterization of quantum devices is a crucial process that enables researchers to gain insight from e...

Continuous Wave Quantum Detection and Ranging with quantum heterodyne detection

Ming-Da Huang, Zhan-Feng Jiang, M. Hunza +6 more·Sep 29, 2025

In the continuous-wave Detection and Ranging technology, simultaneous and accurate range and velocity measurements of an unknown target are typically achieved using a frequency-modulated continuous wave (FMCW) with a heterodyne receiver. The high tim...

Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm: Performance on Simulators and Quantum Hardware

Abyan Khabir Irfan, Chansu Yu·Sep 29, 2025

Running quantum circuits on quantum computers does not always generate "clean" results, unlike on a simulator, as noise plays a significant role in any quantum device. To explore this, we experimented with the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorit...

Non-Gaussian Quantum State Engineering with Postselected von Neumann Measurements

Xiao-Xi Yao, Yusuf Turek·Sep 29, 2025

We introduce a feasible protocol for generating non-Gaussian (nG) states via postselected von Neumann measurement for continuous-variable quantum information processing. The method uses a two-level system coupled to a Gaussian pointer state through a...

Strong-to-weak spontaneous symmetry breaking of higher-form non-invertible symmetries in Kitaev's quantum double model

Zijian Song, Jian-Hao Zhang·Sep 29, 2025

Topological orders can be understood as spontaneous symmetry breaking of higher-form symmetries. In the non-Abelian case, the broken higher-form symmetries are notably non-invertible. In this work, we extend this framework to mixed states, where symm...

Hyperbolic Floquet code with graph-edge syndromes

Hideyuki Ozawa, Isamu Kudo, Yuki Takeuchi +1 more·Sep 28, 2025

Quantum error correction would be a primitive for demonstrating quantum advantage in a realistic noisy environment. Floquet codes are a class of dynamically generated, stabilizer-based codes in which low-weight parity measurements are applied in a ti...

Comparison of Hyperplane Rounding for Max-Cut and Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm over Certain Regular Graph Families

Reuben Tate, Swati Gupta·Sep 28, 2025

There is a strong interest in finding challenging instances of NP-hard problems, from the perspective of showing quantum advantage. Due to the limits of near-term NISQ devices, it is moreover useful if these instances are small. In this work, we iden...

Path Integral Quantum Control for Quantum Chemistry Applications

Peyman Najafi, Aarón Villanueva, Hilbert Kappen·Sep 28, 2025

The Path integral Quantum Control (PiQC) algorithm was recently introduced by Villanueva et al. (2025) as a new approach for computing optimal controls in open and closed quantum systems. Originally proposed for pulse-based quantum control, PiQC esti...

The Aharonov-Casher theorem on a line

Lucas Sourrouille·Sep 28, 2025

In this note, we care to study the degeneracy of the zero modes for a spin-$1/2$ charged particle in a one-dimensional space. We analyze the arguments proposed by Aharonov and Casher in a two-dimensional space. In two dimensions the zero energy state...

From Quasiperiodicity to a Complete Coloring of the Kohmoto Butterfly

Ram Band, Siegfried Beckus·Sep 28, 2025

The spectra of the Kohmoto model give rise to a fractal phase diagram, known as the Kohmoto butterfly. The butterfly encapsulates the spectra of all periodic Kohmoto Hamiltonians, whose index invariants are sought after. Topological methods - such as...
