• Title: Classical Shadows With Noise
• Authors: Dax Enshan Koh, Sabee Grewal
• Abstract summary: We study the effects of noise on the classical shadows protocol. We derive an analytical upper bound for the sample complexity in terms of a shadow seminorm for both local and global noise. Our results can be used to prove rigorous sample complexity upper bounds in the cases of depolarizing noise and amplitude damping.

• Abstract: The classical shadows protocol, recently introduced by Huang, Kueng, and Preskill [Nat. Phys. 16, 1050 (2020)], is a quantum-classical protocol to estimate properties of an unknown quantum state. Unlike full quantum state tomography, the protocol can be implemented on near-term quantum hardware and requires few quantum measurements to make many predictions with a high success probability. In this paper, we study the effects of noise on the classical shadows protocol. In particular, we consider the scenario in which the quantum circuits involved in the protocol are subject to various known noise channels and derive an analytical upper bound for the sample complexity in terms of a shadow seminorm for both local and global noise. Additionally, by modifying the classical post-processing step of the noiseless protocol, we define a new estimator that remains unbiased in the presence of noise. As applications, we show that our results can be used to prove rigorous sample complexity upper bounds in the cases of depolarizing noise and amplitude damping.

  We give a new paradigm of quantum error mitigation based on the vectorization of density matrices. Our proposal directly changes the way of encoding information and maps the density matrices of noisy quantum states to noiseless pure states. Our protocol requires no knowledge of the noise model, no ability to tune the noise strength, and no ancilla qubits for complicated controlled unitaries.

  In this paper, we analyze the feasibility and efficiency of extracting high-order moments from noisy states. We first show that there exists a quantum protocol capable of accomplishing this task if and only if the underlying noise channel is invertible. Our work contributes to a deeper understanding of how quantum noise could affect high-order information extraction and provides guidance on how to tackle it.

• Simple Tests of Quantumness Also Certify Qubits [69.96668065491183]
  A test of quantumness is a protocol that allows a classical verifier to certify (only) that a prover is not classical. We show that tests of quantumness that follow a certain template, which captures recent proposals such as (Kalai et al., 2022) can in fact do much more. Namely, the same protocols can be used for certifying a qubit, a building-block that stands at the heart of applications such as certifiable randomness and classical delegation of quantum computation.

• Quantum Noise Sensing by generating Fake Noise [5.8010446129208155]
  We propose a framework to characterize noise in a realistic quantum device. Key idea is to learn about the noise by mimicking it in a way that one cannot distinguish between the real (to be sensed) and the fake (generated) one. We find that, when applied to the benchmarking case of Pauli channels, the SuperQGAN protocol is able to learn the associated error rates even in the case of spatially and temporally correlated noise.

  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.
