Operator-Space Entanglement Entropy in Random Fermionic Gaussian Dynamics

Pablo Bayona-Pena, Elena Gramellini, Lorenzo Piroli

We study the von Neumann operator-space entanglement entropy (OSEE) of initial product operators evolved under random gaussian dynamics, as modeled by a Brownian SYK model. By…

An asymmetry lower bound on fermionic non-Gaussianity

Filiberto Ares, Michele Mazzoni, Sara Murciano +3

Fermionic Gaussian states are a fundamental tool in many-body physics, faithfully representing non-interacting quantum systems and allowing for efficient numerical simulations. Giv…

Construction and simulability of quantum circuits with free fermions in disguise

Dávid Szász-Schagrin, Daniele Cristani, Lorenzo Piroli +1

We provide a systematic construction for local quantum circuits hosting free fermions in disguise, both with staircase and brickwork architectures. Similar to the original Hamilton…

Breaking global symmetries with locality-preserving operations

Michele Mazzoni, Luca Capizzi, Lorenzo Piroli

In the general framework of quantum resource theories, one typically only distinguishes between operations that can or cannot generate the resource of interest. In many-body settin…

Learning mixed quantum states in large-scale experiments

Matteo Votto, Marko Ljubotina, Cécilia Lancien +5

We present and test a protocol to learn the matrix-product operator (MPO) representation of an experimentally prepared quantum state. The protocol takes as an input classical shado…

Approximate inverse measurement channel for shallow shadows

Riccardo Cioli, Elisa Ercolessi, Matteo Ippoliti +2

Classical shadows are a versatile tool to probe many-body quantum systems, consisting of a combination of randomised measurements and classical post-processing computations. In a r…

Integrability of Goldilocks quantum cellular automata

Logan E. Hillberry, Lorenzo Piroli, Eric Vernier +3

Goldilocks quantum cellular automata (QCA) have been simulated on quantum hardware and produce emergent small-world correlation networks. In Goldilocks QCA, a single-qubit unitary…

Many-body entropies and entanglement from polynomially-many local measurements

Benoît Vermersch, Marko Ljubotina, J. Ignacio Cirac +3

Estimating global properties of many-body quantum systems such as entropy or bipartite entanglement is a notoriously difficult task, typically requiring a number of measurements or…

Triviality of quantum trajectories close to a directed percolation transition

Lorenzo Piroli, Yaodong Li, Romain Vasseur +1

We study quantum circuits consisting of unitary gates, projective measurements, and control operations that steer the system towards a pure absorbing state. Two types of phase tran…

Quantum chaos in the Brownian SYK model with large finite : OTOCs and tripartite information

Christoph Sünderhauf, Lorenzo Piroli, Xiao-Liang Qi +2

We consider the Brownian SYK model of interacting Majorana fermions, with random couplings that are taken to vary independently at each time. We study the out-of-time-ordered c…
