• Abstract: The geometrical arrangement of a set of quantum states can be completely characterized using relational information only. This information is encoded in the pairwise state overlaps, as well as in Bargmann invariants of higher degree written as traces of products of density matrices. We describe how to measure Bargmann invariants using suitable generalizations of the SWAP test. This allows for a complete and robust characterization of the projective-unitary invariant properties of any set of pure or mixed states. As applications, we describe basis-independent tests for linear independence, coherence, and imaginarity. We also show that Bargmann invariants can be used to characterize multi-photon indistinguishability.

The research delves into the characterization of local unitary equivalence and the detection of entanglement using local unitary Bargmann invariants.

  We introduce the Binless Multidimensional Thermodynamic Integration (BMTI) method for nonparametric, robust, and data-efficient density estimation. BMTI estimates the logarithm of the density by initially computing log-density differences between neighbouring data points. The method is tested on a variety of complex synthetic high-dimensional datasets, and is benchmarked on realistic datasets from the chemical physics literature.

  We work out an alternative basis consisting of monomials on the basic observables, with the crucial property of behaving well under symplectic transformations. Given the density matrix of a state, the expansion coefficients in that basis constitute the multipoles, which describe the state in a canonically covariant form that is both concise and explicit.

  We present a general theory of indistinguishability of identical bosons in experiments consisting of passive linear optics followed by particle number detection. We identify the expectation value of the projector onto the $N$-particle symmetric subspace as an operationally meaningful measure of indistinguishability. We show that these states are diagonal in the computational basis up to a permutationally invariant unitary.

  integrable systems should be simpler in a quantifiable sense than the evolution of generic systems. We provide a connection of this sort by constructing a specific matrix in terms of the eigenvectors of a given quantum Hamiltonian. We demonstrate how this connection works in a few concrete examples of quantum spin chains.

• Entanglement dynamics of multi-parametric random states: a single parametric formulation [0.0]
  A non-ergodic quantum state of a many body system is in general random as well as multi-parametric, former due to a lack of exact information due to complexity and latter reflecting its varied behavior in different parts of the Hilbert space. Our theoretical analysis of these ensembles not only resolves the controversy about the growth rates of the average information entropies of the generic states but also leads to new insights in their entanglement dynamics.
