Haah's 3D cubic code thermalizes rapidly

Sebastian Stengele, Libor Caha, Ángela Capel +1

Haah's 3D cubic code was introduced as a candidate for a self-correcting quantum memory in three dimensions, using the absence of string logical operators to obstruct thermal error…

Is rapid mixing stable?

Jordi A. Montañà-López, Barbara Roos, Sebastian Stengele +2

Several physically interesting Lindbladians, such as those describing generic open quantum system models as well as engineered state preparation processes, are often rapidly mixing…

Modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for Abelian quantum double models

Sebastian Stengele, Ángela Capel, Li Gao +5

We establish rapid mixing for Davies Markov semigroups associated with 2D Abelian quantum double models at any positive temperature. A condition of Dobrushin-Shlosman (DS) type hol…

Modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for CSS codes

Sebastian Stengele, Ángela Capel, Li Gao +5

We consider the class of Davies quantum semigroups modelling thermalization for translation-invariant Calderbank-Shor-Steane (CSS) codes in D dimensions. We prove that conditions o…

A Framework for Universality in Physics, Computer Science, and Beyond

Tomáš Gonda, Tobias Reinhart, Sebastian Stengele +1

Turing machines and spin models share a notion of universality according to which some simulate all others. Is there a theory of universality that captures this notion? We set up a…

Many bounded versions of undecidable problems are NP-hard

Andreas Klingler, Mirte van der Eyden, Sebastian Stengele +2

Several physically inspired problems have been proven undecidable; examples are the spectral gap problem and the membership problem for quantum correlations. Most of these results…

Classical spin Hamiltonians are context-sensitive languages

Sebastian Stengele, David Drexel, Gemma De las Cuevas

Classical spin Hamiltonians are a powerful tool to model complex systems, characterised by a local structure given by the local Hamiltonians. One of the best understood local struc…
