Quantum 9, 1625 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-10-1625 In the ongoing effort towards a scalable quantum computer, multiple technologies have been proposed. Some of them exploit topological materials to process quantum information. In this work, we propose a […]
Quantum 9, 1624 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-06-1624 Hamiltonian simulation is a domain where quantum computers have the potential to outperform their classical counterparts. One of the main challenges of such quantum algorithms is increasing the system size, […]
Quantum 9, 1623 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-06-1623 Topological quantum error correction is a milestone in the scaling roadmap of quantum computers, which targets circuits with trillions of gates that would allow running quantum algorithms for real-world problems. […]
Quantum 9, 1622 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-04-1622 A set of pure quantum states is said to be antidistinguishable if upon sampling one at random, there exists a measurement to perfectly determine some state that was not sampled. […]
Quantum 9, 1621 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-04-1621 A unified theoretical approach to describe the properties of multimode squeezed light generated in a lossy medium is presented. This approach is valid for Markovian environments and includes both a […]
Quantum 9, 1620 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-04-1620 The simulation of many-body open quantum systems is key to solving numerous outstanding problems in physics, chemistry, material science, and in the development of quantum technologies. Near-term quantum computers may […]
Quantum 9, 1619 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-02-04-1619 The quantum Fisher information (QFI) bounds the sensitivity of a quantum measurement, heralding the conditions for quantum advantages when compared with classical strategies. Here, we calculate analytical expressions for the […]
Quantum 9, 1618 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-01-30-1618 Unlike the surface code, quantum low-density parity-check (QLDPC) codes can have a finite encoding rate, potentially lowering the error correction overhead. However, finite-rate QLDPC codes have nonlocal stabilizers, making it […]
Quantum 9, 1617 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-01-30-1617 Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) hold much promise but face the challenge of exponentially small gradients. Unmitigated, this barren plateau (BP) phenomenon leads to an exponential training overhead for VQAs. Perhaps […]
Quantum 9, 1616 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-01-30-1616 The Page-Wootters formalism is a proposal for reconciling the background-dependent, quantum-mechanical notion of time with the background independence of general relativity. However, the physical meaning of this framework remains debated. […]
