Natural Gradient Optimization for Optical Quantum Circuits
Yuan Yao, Pierre Cussenot, Richard A. Wolf +1
Optical quantum circuits can be optimized using gradient descent methods, as the gates in a circuit can be parametrized by continuous parameters. However, the parameter space as se…
Full-mode Characterisation of Correlated Photon Pairs Generated in Spontaneous Downconversion
Alessio D'Errico, Felix Hufnagel, Filippo Miatto +2
Spontaneous parametric downconversion is the primary source to generate entangled photon pairs in quantum photonics laboratories. Depending on the experimental design, the generate…
Encoding strongly-correlated many-boson wavefunctions on a photonic quantum computer: application to the attractive Bose-Hubbard model
Saad Yalouz, Bruno Senjean, Filippo Miatto +1
Variational quantum algorithms (VQA) are considered as some of the most promising methods to determine the properties of complex strongly correlated quantum many-body systems, espe…
Fast differentiable evolution of quantum states under Gaussian transformations
Yuan Yao, Filippo M. Miatto
In a recent work we presented a recursive algorithm to compute the matrix elements of a generic Gaussian transformation in the photon-number basis. Its purpose was to evolve a quan…
