• Abstract: There exists a Hamiltonian formulation of the factorisation problem which also needs the definition of a factorisation ensemble (a set to which factorable numbers, $N'=x'y'$, having the same trivial factorisation algorithmic complexity, belong). For the primes therein, a function $E$, that may take only discrete values, should be the analogous of the energy from a confined system of charges in a magnetic trap. This is the quantum factoring simulator hypothesis connecting quantum mechanics with number theory. In this work, we report numerical evidence of the existence of this kind of discrete spectrum from the statistical analysis of the values of $E$ in a sample of random OpenSSL n-bits moduli (which may be taken as a part of the factorisation ensemble). Here, we show that the unfolded distance probability of these $E$'s fits to a {\it Gaussian Unitary Ensemble}, consistently as required, if they actually correspond to the quantum energy levels spacing of a magnetically confined system that exhibits chaos. The confirmation of these predictions bears out the quantum simulator hypothesis and, thereby, it points to the existence of a liaison between quantum mechanics and number theory. Shor's polynomial time complexity of the quantum factorisation problem, from pure quantum simulation primitives, was obtained.

  Recent separations have raised the tantalizing possibility of building quantum cryptography from sources of hardness that persist even if hierarchy collapses. We show that quantum cryptography can be based on the extremely mild assumption that $mathsfP#P notsubseteq mathsf(io)BQP/qpoly$.

  We study the power of unentangled quantum proofs with non-negative amplitudes, a class which we denote $textQMA+(2)$. In particular, we design global protocols for small set expansion, unique games, and PCP verification. We show that QMA(2) is equal to $textQMA+(2)$ provided the gap of the latter is a sufficiently large constant.

  We propose a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm for solving the Schr"odinger equation for atomic and molecular collisions. The algorithm is based on the $S$-matrix version of the Kohn variational principle, which computes the fundamental scattering $S$-matrix. We show how the algorithm could be scaled up to simulate collisions of large polyatomic molecules.

We will show that finitely exchangeable probabilities for a classical dice are as weird as QT.

  Quantum chromodynamics (QCD) describes the structure of hadrons such as the proton at a fundamental level. Uncertainty in the parton distribution function is the dominant source of error in the $W$ mass measurement at the LHC. We show how this can be achieved by using the light-front formulation of quantum field theory.

• Quantum Statistical Complexity Measure as a Signalling of Correlation Transitions [55.41644538483948]
  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.

  We report on experimental tests of topological defect formation via the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model. We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors. This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system.
