Gaussian Atemporality: When Gaussian Quantum Correlations Imply Common Cause

Minjeong Song, Jayne Thompson, Matthew S. Winnel +4

Conventionally, covariances do not distinguish between spatial and temporal correlations. The same covariance matrix could equally describe temporal correlations between observatio…

Energetic advantages for quantum agents in online execution of complex strategies

Jayne Thompson, Paul M. Riechers, Andrew J. P. Garner +2

Agents often execute complex strategies -- adapting their response to each input stimulus depending on past observations and actions. Here, we derive the minimal energetic cost for…

The relative entropy of coherence quantifies performance in Bayesian metrology

Ruvi Lecamwasam, Syed M Assad, Joseph J Hope +3

The ability of quantum states to be in superposition is one of the key features that sets them apart from the classical world. This `coherence' is rigorously quantified by resource…

Quantum-optimal information encoding using noisy passive linear optics

Andrew Tanggara, Ranjith Nair, Syed Assad +5

The amount of information that a noisy channel can transmit has been one of the primary subjects of interest in information theory. In this work we consider a practically-motivated…

Quantum adaptive agents with efficient long-term memories

Thomas J. Elliott, Mile Gu, Andrew J. P. Garner +1

Central to the success of adaptive systems is their ability to interpret signals from their environment and respond accordingly -- they act as agents interacting with their surroun…

Provable superior accuracy in machine learned quantum models

Chengran Yang, Andrew Garner, Feiyang Liu +5

In modelling complex processes, the potential past data that influence future expectations are immense. Models that track all this data are not only computationally wasteful but al…

Probe optimization for quantum metrology via closed-loop learning control

Xiaodong Yang, Jayne Thompson, Ze Wu +3

Experimentally achieving the precision that standard quantum metrology schemes promise is always challenging. Recently, additional controls were applied to design feasible quantum…

A high fidelity heralded squeezing gate

Jie Zhao, Kui Liu, Jeng Hao +4

A universal squeezing gate capable of squeezing arbitrary input states is essential for continuous-variable quantum computation~\cite{PRA79062318,PRL112120504}. However, in present…

Boosting on the shoulders of giants in quantum device calibration

Alex Wozniakowski, Jayne Thompson, Mile Gu +1

Traditional machine learning applications, such as optical character recognition, arose from the inability to explicitly program a computer to perform a routine task. In this conte…

Maximum entanglement of formation for a two-mode Gaussian state over passive operations

Spyros Tserkis, Jayne Thompson, Austin P. Lund +4

We quantify the maximum amount of entanglement of formation (EoF) that can be achieved by continuous-variable states under passive operations, which we refer to as EoF-potential. F…

Thermodynamic resources in continuous-variable quantum systems

Varun Narasimhachar, Syed Assad, Felix C. Binder +3

Thermodynamic resources, beyond their well-known usefulness in work extraction and other thermodynamic tasks, are often important also in tasks that are not evidently thermodynamic…

Extreme dimensionality reduction with quantum modelling

Thomas J. Elliott, Chengran Yang, Felix C. Binder +3

Effective and efficient forecasting relies on identification of the relevant information contained in past observations -- the predictive features -- and isolating it from the rest…

Modular Quantum Computation in a Trapped Ion System

Kuan Zhang, Jayne Thompson, Xiang Zhang +7

Modern computation relies crucially on modular architectures, breaking a complex algorithm into self-contained subroutines. A client can then call upon a remote server to implement…

Universal and Operational Benchmarking of Quantum Memories

Xiao Yuan, Yunchao Liu, Qi Zhao +3

Quantum memory -- the capacity to store and faithfully recover unknown quantum states -- is essential for quantum-enhanced technology. There is thus a pressing need for operational…
