Characterizing Photonic Partial Distinguishability Through Gram Matrix Tomography
Marcin Kotowski, Marco Robbio, Oliver Reardon-Smith +4
Partial distinguishability affects multiphoton interference, which is central to large-scale photonic experiments such as Boson Sampling and to applications of multiphoton states a…
Efficient classical algorithm for estimating linear statistics of Boson Sampling
Benoit Seron, Hugo Thomas, Eduardo Araujo +3
Boson Sampling is a prominent candidate for the demonstration of quantum computational advantage but it remains unclear whether a large-scale boson sampler can find useful computat…
A logical implication between two conjectures on matrix permanents
Léo Pioge, Kamil K. Pietrasz, Benoit Seron +2
We prove a logical implication between two old conjectures stated by Bapat and Sunder about the permanent of positive semidefinite matrices. Although Drury has recently disproved b…
Experimental validation of boson sampling using detector binning
Malaquias Correa Anguita, Anita Camillini, Sara Marzban +4
We experimentally demonstrate a testing strategy for boson samplers that is based on efficiently computable expressions for the output photon counting distributions binned over mul…
Gaussian boson sampling validation via detector binning
Gabriele Bressanini, Benoit Seron, Leonardo Novo +2
Gaussian boson sampling (GBS), a computational problem conjectured to be hard to simulate on a classical machine, has been at the forefront of recent years' experimental and theore…
Anomalous bunching of nearly indistinguishable bosons
Léo Pioge, Benoit Seron, Leonardo Novo +1
The commonly assumed straight link between boson bunching and particle indistinguishability in quantum interferometry has recently been challenged [Nat. Photon. 17, 702 (2023)]. Ex…
Programmable multi-photon quantum interference in a single spatial mode
Lorenzo Carosini, Virginia Oddi, Francesco Giorgino +7
The interference of non-classical states of light enables quantum-enhanced applications reaching from metrology to computation. Most commonly, the polarisation or spatial location…
Efficient validation of Boson Sampling from binned photon-number distributions
Benoit Seron, Leonardo Novo, Alex Arkhipov +1
In order to substantiate claims of quantum computational advantage, it is crucial to develop efficient methods for validating the experimental data. We propose a test of the correc…
BosonSampling.jl: A Julia package for quantum multi-photon interferometry
Benoit Seron, Antoine Restivo
We present a free open source package for high performance simulation and numerical investigation of boson samplers and, more generally, multi-photon interferometry. Our package is…
Boson bunching is not maximized by indistinguishable particles
Benoît Seron, Leonardo Novo, Nicolas J. Cerf
Boson bunching is amongst the most remarkable features of quantum physics. A celebrated example in optics is the Hong-Ou-Mandel effect, where the bunching of two photons arises fro…
