• Abstract summary: Current schemes typically require measurement devices for tomography that are a priori calibrated to high precision. We show that exploiting the natural low-rank structure of quantum states of interest suffices to arrive at a highly scalable blind' tomography scheme. We numerically demonstrate that robust blind quantum tomography is possible in a practical setting inspired by an implementation of trapped ions.

• Abstract: Extracting tomographic information about quantum states is a crucial task in the quest towards devising high-precision quantum devices. Current schemes typically require measurement devices for tomography that are a priori calibrated to high precision. Ironically, the accuracy of the measurement calibration is fundamentally limited by the accuracy of state preparation, establishing a vicious cycle. Here, we prove that this cycle can be broken and the dependence on the measurement device's calibration significantly relaxed. We show that exploiting the natural low-rank structure of quantum states of interest suffices to arrive at a highly scalable `blind' tomography scheme with a classically efficient post-processing algorithm. We further improve the efficiency of our scheme by making use of the sparse structure of the calibrations. This is achieved by relaxing the blind quantum tomography problem to the de-mixing of a sparse sum of low-rank matrices. We prove that the proposed algorithm recovers a low-rank quantum state and the calibration provided that the measurement model exhibits a restricted isometry property. For generic measurements, we show that it requires a close-to-optimal number of measurement settings. Complementing these conceptual and mathematical insights, we numerically demonstrate that robust blind quantum tomography is possible in a practical setting inspired by an implementation of trapped ions.

  A characterization tool, Quantum state tomography, reconstructs the density matrix of an unknown quantum state. This is less practical owing to the huge burden of measurements and data processing for large numbers of qubits. We build an efficient framework that requires fewer measurements but yields an expected accuracy.

  The verification and estimation of large entangled systems represents one of the main challenges in the employment of such systems for reliable quantum information processing. This review article presents novel techniques focusing on a fixed number of resources (sampling complexity) and thus prove suitable for systems of arbitrary dimension. Specifically, a probabilistic framework requiring at best only a single copy for entanglement detection is reviewed, together with the concept of selective quantum state tomography.

  Quantum tomography has become a key tool for the assessment of quantum states, processes, and devices. In the case of mixed states of a single 2-dimensional quantum system adaptive methods have been recently introduced that achieve the theoretical accuracy limit deduced by Hayashi and Gill and Massar. Here we present an adaptive tomographic method and show through numerical simulations, that it is difficult to approach the fundamental accuracy of pure quantum states in high dimension.
