• Abstract: We investigate the problem of optimally approximating a desired state by the convex mixing of a set of available states. The problem is recasted as finding the optimal state with the minimum distance from target state in a convex set of usable states. Based on the fidelity, we define the optimal convex approximation of an expected state and present the complete exact solutions with respect to an arbitrary qubit state. We find that the optimal state based on fidelity is closer to the target state than the optimal state based on trace norm in many ranges. Finally, we analyze the geometrical properties of the target states which can be completely represented by a set of practicable states. Using the feature of convex combination, we express this class of target states in terms of three available states.

  A promising technique for exploration is to maximize the entropy of visited state distribution. It tends to struggle in a supervised setup with a task reward, where an agent prefers to visit high-value states. We present a novel exploration technique that maximizes the value-conditional state entropy.

We find the least number of states within a given set to optimally construct the objective state and also find that any state can be optimally established by at most four quantum states of the set.

  We propose the amortized conditional normalized maximum likelihood (ACNML) method as a scalable general-purpose approach for uncertainty estimation. Our algorithm builds on the conditional normalized maximum likelihood (CNML) coding scheme, which has minimax optimal properties according to the minimum description length principle. We demonstrate that ACNML compares favorably to a number of prior techniques for uncertainty estimation in terms of calibration on out-of-distribution inputs.

  We exploit insights into the geometry of bosonic and fermionic Gaussian states to develop an efficient local optimization algorithm. The method is based on notions of descent gradient attuned to the local geometry. We use the presented methods to collect numerical and analytical evidence for the conjecture that Gaussian purifications are sufficient to compute the entanglement of purification of arbitrary mixed Gaussian states.
