Quantum 7, 969 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-30-969 We present an end-to-end and practical randomness amplification and privatisation protocol based on Bell tests. This allows the building of device-independent random number generators which output (near-)perfectly unbiased and private […]
Quantum 7, 968 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-30-968 We compare the proposals that have appeared in the literature to describe a measurement of the time of arrival of a quantum particle at a detector. We show that there […]
Quantum 7, 967 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-30-967 We present a family of electron-based coupled-wire models of bosonic orbifold topological phases, referred to as twist liquids, in two spatial dimensions. All local fermion degrees of freedom are gapped […]
Quantum 7, 966 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-30-966 We study variational quantum algorithms from the perspective of free fermions. By deriving the explicit structure of the associated Lie algebras, we show that the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) […]
Quantum 7, 965 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-30-965 Thanks to common-mode noise rejection, differential configurations are crucial for realistic applications of phase and frequency estimation with atom interferometers. Currently, differential protocols with uncorrelated particles and mode-separable settings reach […]
Quantum 7, 964 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-30-964 We develop and analyze a method for simulating quantum circuits on classical computers by representing quantum states as rooted tree tensor networks. Our algorithm first determines a suitable, fixed tree […]
Quantum 7, 963 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-28-963 Semiclassically, laser pulses can be used to implement arbitrary transformations on atomic systems; quantum mechanically, residual atom-field entanglement spoils this promise. Transcoherent states are field states that fix this problem […]
Quantum 7, 962 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-28-962 The implementation of time-evolution operators $U(t)$, called Hamiltonian simulation, is one of the most promising usage of quantum computers. For time-independent Hamiltonians, qubitization has recently established efficient realization of time-evolution […]
If computer chips make the modern world go around, then Nvidia and TSMC are flywheels keeping it spinning. It’s worth paying attention when the former says they’ve made a chipmaking breakthrough, and the latter confirms […]
Quantum 7, 961 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-03-23-961 We demonstrate an information erasure protocol that resets $N$ qubits at once. The method displays exceptional performances in terms of energy cost (it operates nearly at Landauer energy cost $kT […]
