Optimal learning of quantum channels in diamond distance

Antonio Anna Mele, Lennart Bittel

Quantum process tomography, the task of estimating an unknown quantum channel, is a central problem in quantum information theory. A long-standing open question is how many uses of…

Is it Gaussian? Testing bosonic quantum states

Filippo Girardi, Freek Witteveen, Francesco Anna Mele +4

Gaussian states are widely regarded as one of the most relevant classes of continuous-variable (CV) quantum states, as they naturally arise in physical systems and play a key role…

Adaptively secure unitary designs with constant non-Clifford cost

Lennart Bittel, Lorenzo Leone

Randomness is a fundamental resource in quantum information, with crucial applications in cryptography, algorithms, and error correction. A central challenge is to construct unitar…

Energy-independent tomography of Gaussian states

Lennart Bittel, Francesco Anna Mele, Francesco A. Mele +3

The exploration of tomography of bosonic Gaussian states is presumably as old as quantum optics, but only recently, their precise and rigorous study have been moving into the focus…

Classical simulation of noisy quantum circuits via locally entanglement-optimal unravelings

Simon Cichy, Paul K. Faehrmann, Lennart Bittel +2

Classical simulations of noisy quantum circuits are instrumental to our understanding of the behavior of real-world quantum systems and the identification of regimes where one expe…

A complete theory of the Clifford commutant

Lennart Bittel, Jens Eisert, Lorenzo Leone +2

The Clifford group plays a central role in quantum information science. It is the building block for many error-correcting schemes and matches the first three moments of the Haar m…
