• Abstract: A Kerr-nonlinear parametric oscillator (KPO) can generate a quantum superposition of two oscillating states, known as a Schr\"{o}dinger cat state, via quantum adiabatic evolution, and can be used as a qubit for gate-based quantum computing and quantum annealing. In this work, we investigate complex dynamics, i.e., chaos, in two coupled nondissipative KPOs at a few-photon level. After showing that a classical model for this system is nonintegrable and consequently exhibits chaotic behavior, we provide quantum counterparts for the classical results, which are quantum versions of the Poincar\'{e} surface of section and its lower-dimensional version defined with time integrals of the Wigner and Husimi functions, and also the initial and long-term behavior of out-of-time-ordered correlators. We conclude that some of them can be regarded as quantum signatures of chaos, together with energy-level spacing statistics (conventional signature). Thus, the system of coupled KPOs is expected to offer not only an alternative approach to quantum computing, but also a promising platform for the study on quantum chaos.

  We introduce a quantum hardness assumption called the Hamiltonian Phase State (HPS) problem. We show that our assumption is plausibly fully quantum; meaning, it cannot be used to construct one-way functions. We show that our assumption and its variants allow us to efficiently construct many pseudorandom quantum primitives.

  We present a hybrid classical-quantum computing paradigm where the quantum part strictly runs within the coherence time of a quantum annealer. We introduce auxiliary Hamiltonians that vanish at the beginning and end of the evolution to increase the energy gap during the process. We achieve a substantial reduction in the ground-state error with just six variational parameters and a duration within the device coherence times.

We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors. This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system.
