• Authors: Michael A. Perlin, Diego Barberena, Ana Maria Rey
• Abstract summary: We consider the task of performing quantum state tomography on a $d$-level spin qudit, using only measurements of spin projection onto different quantization axes. Our algorithms motivate a simple randomized tomography protocol, for which we find that using more measurement axes can yield substantial benefits that plateau after $rapprox3d$.

• Abstract: We consider the task of performing quantum state tomography on a $d$-level spin qudit, using only measurements of spin projection onto different quantization axes. After introducing a basis of operators closely related to the spherical harmonics, which obey the rotational symmetries of spin qudits, we map our quantum tomography task onto the classical problem of signal recovery on the sphere. We then provide algorithms with $O(rd^3)$ serial runtime, parallelizable down to $O(rd^2)$, for (i) computing a priori upper bounds on the expected error with which spin projection measurements along $r$ given axes can reconstruct an unknown qudit state, and (ii) estimating a posteriori the statistical error in a reconstructed state. Our algorithms motivate a simple randomized tomography protocol, for which we find that using more measurement axes can yield substantial benefits that plateau after $r\approx3d$.

  We consider single-qubit coherent errors in the surface code, i.e., rotations by angle $alpha$ about an axis that can be chosen arbitrarily. We numerically establish the existence of an error-correcting phase, which we chart in a subspace of rotation axes to estimate the corresponding maximum-likelihood thresholds.

  In particular, qubit phase estimation, or rotation sensing, appears as a ubiquitous problem with applications to electric field sensing, magnetometry, atomic clocks, and gyroscopes. We propose a new family of parametrized encoding and decoding protocols called arbitrary-axis twist ansatzes. We show that it can lead to a substantial reduction in the number of one-axis twists needed to achieve a target estimation error.

  We consider the problem of phase retrieval, which consists of recovering an $n$-m real vector from the magnitude of its behaviour. For two measurements, we show that when the number of measurements $n$ is enough, then with high probability, for almost all initializers, the original vector recovers up to a sign.
