Non-local Magic: closed-form solution and equivalence with magic of purification

Michele Viscardi, Lorenzo Leone, Alioscia Hamma

Non-local magic quantifies the non-stabilizerness of a bipartite quantum state that cannot be removed by local unitary transformations. Despite its natural definition, its evaluati…

Pseudomagic Quantum States

Andi Gu, Lorenzo Leone, Soumik Ghosh +3

Notions of nonstabilizerness, or "magic", quantify how non-classical quantum states are in a precise sense: states exhibiting low nonstabilizerness preclude quantum advantage. We i…

Stabilizer entropy dynamics after a quantum quench

Davide Rattacaso, Lorenzo Leone, Salvatore F. E. Oliviero +1

Stabilizer entropies (SE) measure deviations from stabilizer resources and as such are a fundamental ingredient for quantum advantage. In particular, the interplay of SE and entang…

Quantifying non-stabilizerness through entanglement spectrum flatness

Emanuele Tirrito, Poetri Sonya Tarabunga, Gugliemo Lami +6

Non-stabilizerness - also colloquially referred to as magic - is the a resource for advantage in quantum computing and lies in the access to non-Clifford operations. Developing a c…
