• Authors: Hiroyasu Tajima, Keiji Saito
• Abstract summary: We show limitations on the information recovery from scrambling dynamics with arbitrary Lie group symmetries. We rigorously prove that under the energy conservation law, the error of the information recovery from a small black hole remains unignorably large until it completely evaporates. The relations also provide a unified view of the symmetry restrictions on quantum information processing.

• Abstract: Quantum information is scrambled via chaotic time evolution in many-body systems. The recovery of initial information embedded locally in the system from the scrambled quantum state is a fundamental concern in many contexts. From a dynamical perspective, information recovery can measure dynamical instability in quantum chaos, fault-tolerant quantum computing, and the black hole information paradox. This article considers general aspects of quantum information recovery when the scrambling dynamics have conservation laws due to Lie group symmetries. Here, we establish fundamental limitations on the information recovery from scrambling dynamics with arbitrary Lie group symmetries. We show universal relations between information recovery, symmetry, and quantum coherence, which apply to many physical situations. The relations predict that the behavior of the Hayden-Preskill black hole model changes qualitatively under the assumption of the energy conservation law. Consequently, we can rigorously prove that under the energy conservation law, the error of the information recovery from a small black hole remains unignorably large until it completely evaporates. Moreover, even when the black hole is very large, the recovery of information thrown into the black hole is not completed until most of the black hole evaporates. The relations also provide a unified view of the symmetry restrictions on quantum information processing, such as the approximate Eastin-Knill theorem and the Wigner-Araki-Yanase theorem for unitary gates.

• Universal trade-off structure between symmetry, irreversibility, and quantum coherence in quantum processes [0.0]
  We show that under a global symmetry, any attempt to induce local dynamics that change the conserved quantity will cause inevitable irreversibility. In the context of thermodynamics, we derive a trade-off relation between entropy production and quantum coherence. As an application to quantum information processing, we provide a lower bound on the coherence cost to implement an arbitrary quantum channel.

Though speculative, the similarities between the black hole information problem and the measurement problem may suggest some link in the origins of the two fundamental issues of distant fields.

  Masking of quantum information spreads it over nonlocal correlations and hides it from the subsystems. We show that the resource of maskable quantum states are far more abundant than the no-go theorem seemingly suggests. We devise a photonic quantum information masking machine to experimentally investigate the properties of qubit masking.

  We develop steps towards a thermodynamic description of information scrambling in open quantum systems. In particular, we separate the entropy production into contributions arising from scrambling and decoherence. This is complemented with a numerical study of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev, Maldacena-Qi, XXX, mixed field Ising, Lipkin-Meshkov-Glick models.

  Quantum computing may offer the opportunity to simulate strongly-interacting field theories, such as quantum chromodynamics, with physical time evolution. As with present-day calculations, quantum computation strategies still require the restriction to a finite system size. We quantify the volume effects for various $1+1$D Minkowski-signature quantities and show that these can be a significant source of systematic uncertainty.

• Multidimensional dark space and its underlying symmetries: towards dissipation-protected qubits [62.997667081978825]
  We show that a controlled interaction with the environment may help to create a state, dubbed as em dark'', which is immune to decoherence. To encode quantum information in the dark states, they need to span a space with a dimensionality larger than one, so different states act as a computational basis. This approach offers new possibilities for storing, protecting and manipulating quantum information in open systems.
