Proof of the hiding conjecture for Gaussian boson sampling with an arbitrary number of squeezed input modes

Laura Shou, Alexey V. Gorshkov, Victor Galitski +1

Gaussian boson sampling (GBS) is a sampling task proposed to demonstrate quantum advantage. We consider Gaussian boson sampling on optical modes, with equally squeezed inpu…

Breakdown of the thermodynamic limit in quantum spin and dimer models

Jeet Shah, Laura Shou, Jeremy Shuler +1

The thermodynamic limit is foundational to statistical mechanics, underlying our understanding of many-body phases. It assumes that, as the system size grows infinitely at fixed de…

Entanglement and circuit complexity in finite-depth random linear optical networks

Laura Shou, Joseph T. Iosue, Yu-Xin Wang +2

We study the growth of entanglement and circuit complexity in random passive linear optical networks as a function of the circuit depth. For entanglement dynamics, we start with an…

Exactly Solvable Topological Phase Transition in a Quantum Dimer Model

Laura Shou, Jeet Shah, Matthew Lerner-Brecher +3

We consider a family of generalized Rokhsar-Kivelson (RK) Hamiltonians, which are reverse-engineered to have an arbitrary edge-weighted superposition of dimer coverings as their ex…

Geometric Delocalization in Two Dimensions

Laura Shou, Alireza Parhizkar, Victor Galitski

We demonstrate the existence of transient two-dimensional surfaces where a random-walking particle escapes to infinity in contrast to localization in standard flat 2D space. We fir…

Quantum variance and fluctuations for Walsh-quantized baker's maps

Laura Shou

The Walsh-quantized baker's maps are models for quantum chaos on the torus. We show that for all baker's map scaling factors except for , typically (in the sense of Ha…
