• Abstract: Having accurate tools to describe non-classical, non-Gaussian environmental fluctuations is crucial for designing effective quantum control protocols and understanding the physics of underlying quantum dissipative environments. We show how the Keldysh approach to quantum noise characterization can be usefully employed to characterize frequency-dependent noise, focusing on the quantum bispectrum (i.e., frequency-resolved third cumulant). Using the paradigmatic example of photon shot noise fluctuations in a driven bosonic mode, we show that the quantum bispectrum can be a powerful tool for revealing distinctive non-classical noise properties, including an effective breaking of detailed balance by quantum fluctuations. The Keldysh-ordered quantum bispectrum can be directly accessed using existing noise spectroscopy protocols.

  In quantum information processing quantum operations are often processed alongside measurements which result in classical data. Non-unitary dynamical processes can take place on the system, for which common quantum channel descriptions fail to describe the time evolution. Quantum measurements are correctly treated by means of so-called quantum instruments capturing both classical outputs and post-measurement quantum states.

  Quantum algorithms for quantum dynamics simulations are traditionally based on implementing a Trotter-approximation of the time-evolution operator. variational quantum algorithms have become an indispensable alternative, enabling small-scale simulations on present-day hardware. We show that, despite providing a clear reduction of quantum gate cost, the variational method in its current implementation is unlikely to lead to a quantum advantage.

  Noise in quantum information processing is often viewed as a disruptive and difficult-to-avoid feature, especially in near-term quantum technologies. We show that by taking advantage of depolarisation noise in quantum circuits for classification, a robustness bound against adversaries can be derived. This is the first quantum protocol that can be used against the most general adversaries.

  The ability to use quantum technology to achieve useful tasks, be they scientific or industry related, boils down to precise quantum control. In general it is difficult to assess a proposed solution due to the difficulties in characterising the quantum system or device. Here we present a general purpose characterisation and control solution making use of a novel deep learning framework composed of quantum features.
