Quantum 9, 1661 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-12-1661 In the NISQ era, where quantum information processing is hindered by the decoherence and dissipation of elementary quantum systems, developing new protocols to extend the lifetime of quantum states is […]
Quantum 9, 1660 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-12-1660 Quantum reinforcement learning (QRL) is a promising paradigm for near-term quantum devices. While existing QRL methods have shown success in discrete action spaces, extending these techniques to continuous domains is […]
Quantum 9, 1659 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-12-1659 This paper presents novel methods for optimizing multi-controlled quantum gates, which naturally arise in high-level quantum programming. Our primary approach involves rewriting $U(2)$ gates as $SU(2)$ gates, utilizing one auxiliary […]
Quantum 9, 1658 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-10-1658 Parametrized quantum circuits (PQC) are quantum circuits which consist of both fixed and parametrized gates. In recent approaches to quantum machine learning (QML), PQCs are essentially ubiquitous and play the […]

Quantum 9, 1656 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-06-1656 We study the dynamics of an open quantum system linearly coupled to a bosonic reservoir. We show that, in the ultrastrong coupling limit, the system undergoes a nonselective measurement and […]
Quantum 9, 1655 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-06-1655 The estimation of many-qubit observables is an essential task of quantum information processing. The generally applicable approach is to decompose the observables into weighted sums of multi-qubit Pauli strings, i.e., […]
