Magic State Distillation using Asymptotically Good Codes on Qudits
Michael J. Cervia, Henry Lamm, Diyi Liu +2
Qudits offer the potential for low-overhead magic state distillation, although previous results for asymptotically good codes have required qudit dimension or code lengt…
Interactions of Neutrino Wave Packets
Michael J. Cervia
The low energy effective field theory of interacting neutrinos derived from the Standard Model may be framed as a pointlike interaction and thereby modeled on a lattice of neutrino…
Proton-rich production of lanthanides: the process
Xilu Wang, Amol V. Patwardhan, Yangming Lin +7
The astrophysical origin of the lanthanides is an open question in nuclear astrophysics. Besides the widely studied , , and processes in moderately-to-strongly neutron-ri…
Collective Neutrino Oscillations in Three Flavors on Qubit and Qutrit Processors
Luca Spagnoli, Noah Goss, Alessandro Roggero +9
Collective neutrino flavor oscillations are of primary importance in understanding the dynamic evolution of core-collapse supernovae and subsequent terrestrial detection, but also…
Collective neutrino oscillations and heavy-element nucleosynthesis in supernovae: exploring potential effects of many-body neutrino correlations
A. Baha Balantekin, Michael J. Cervia, Amol V. Patwardhan +2
In high-energy astrophysical processes involving compact objects, such as core-collapse supernovae or binary neutron star mergers, neutrinos play an important role in the synthesis…
Fuzzy gauge theory for quantum computers
Andrei Alexandru, Paulo F. Bedaque, Andrea Carosso +3
Continuous gauge theories, because of their bosonic degrees of freedom, have an infinite-dimensional local Hilbert space. Encoding these degrees of freedom on qubit-based hardware…
Reducing circuit depth with qubitwise diagonalization
Edison M. Murairi, Michael J. Cervia
A variety of quantum algorithms employ Pauli operators as a convenient basis for studying the spectrum or evolution of Hamiltonians or measuring multi-body observables. One strateg…

A. B. Balantekin, Michael J. Cervia, Amol V. Patwardhan +2
In extreme astrophysical environments such as core-collapse supernovae and binary neutron star mergers, neutrinos play a major role in driving various dynamical and microphysical p…
Many-body collective neutrino oscillations: recent developments
Amol V. Patwardhan, Michael J. Cervia, Ermal Rrapaj +2
Neutrino flavor transformations in core-collapse supernovae and binary neutron star mergers represent a complex and unsolved problem that is integral to our understanding of the dy…
Qubitization strategies for bosonic field theories
Andrei Alexandru, Paulo F. Bedaque, Andrea Carosso +2
Quantum simulations of bosonic field theories require a truncation in field space to map the theory onto finite quantum registers. Ideally, the truncated theory preserves the symme…
How many quantum gates do gauge theories require?
Edison M. Murairi, Michael J. Cervia, Hersh Kumar +2
We discuss the implementation of lattice gauge theories on digital quantum computers, focusing primarily on the number of quantum gates required to simulate their time evolution. W…
Role of non-gaussian quantum fluctuations in neutrino entanglement
Denis Lacroix, A. B. Balantekin, Michael J. Cervia +2
The flavor evolution of neutrinos in environments with large neutrino number densities is an open problem at the nexus of astrophysics and neutrino flavor physics. Among the many u…
Collective neutrino oscillations with tensor networks using a time-dependent variational principle
Michael J. Cervia, Pooja Siwach, Amol V. Patwardhan +3
If a system of flavor-oscillating neutrinos is at high enough densities that neutrino-neutrino coherent forward scatterings are non-negligible, the system becomes a time-dependent…

Atomic nuclei are important laboratories for exploring and testing new insights into the universe, such as experiments to directly detect dark matter or explore properties of neutr…
Entanglement and collective flavor oscillations in a dense neutrino gas
Michael J. Cervia, Amol V. Patwardhan, A. B. Balantekin +2
