A fast and frugal Gaussian Boson Sampling emulator

Tom Dodd, Javier Martínez-Cifuentes, Oliver Thomson Brown +2

If classical algorithms have been successful in reproducing the estimation of expectation values of observables of some quantum circuits using off-the-shelf computing resources, ma…

Simulating lossy and partially distinguishable quantum optical circuits: theory, algorithms and applications to experiment validation and state preparation

Jacob F. F. Bulmer, Javier Martínez-Cifuentes, Bryn A. Bell +1

To understand quantum optics experiments, we must perform calculations that consider the principal sources of noise, such as losses, spectral impurity and partial distinguishabilit…

Partial and complete qubit estimation using a single observable: optimization and quantum simulation

Cristian A. Galvis Florez, J. Martínez-Cifuentes, K. M. Fonseca-Romero

Quantum state estimation is an important task of many quantum information protocols. We consider two families of unitary evolution operators, one with a one-parameter and the other…

Classical models may be a better explanation of the Jiuzhang 1.0 Gaussian Boson Sampler than its targeted squeezed light model

Javier Martínez-Cifuentes, K. M. Fonseca-Romero, Nicolás Quesada

Recently, Zhong et al. performed landmark Gaussian boson sampling experiments with up to 144 modes using threshold detectors. The authors claim to have achieved quantum computation…
