• Abstract: Generic open quantum dynamics can be described by two seemingly very distinct approaches: a top down approach by considering an (unknown) environment coupled to the system and affects the observed dynamics of the system; or a bottom up approach which tries to build an open quantum evolution model from the observed data. The process tensor framework describes all the possible observations one could possibly make on a quantum system, however it is computationally inefficient and not predictive. Here we define the purified process tensor which 1) allows efficient tomography as well as prediction for future process and 2) naturally defines a stationary quantum process as well as a quantitative and easy-to-evaluate definition of the memory complexity, or the degree of non-Markovianity, for it. As such it allows to uncover the minimal open quantum evolution model hidden in the observed data, completing the second approach for understanding open quantum dynamics. The intimate connection between quantum processes and classical stochastic processes is drawn in the end.

  We present an algorithm for unbalanced partitions into a small subsystem and a large one (the environment) to compute the tensor product decomposition of a unitary. This quantum algorithm may be used to make predictions about operator non-locality, effective open quantum dynamics on a subsystem, as well as for finding low-rank approximations and low-depth compilations of quantum circuit unitaries.

  We explore the applicability of quantum-data learning to practical problems in high-energy physics. We make use of ansatz based on quantum convolutional neural networks and numerically show that it is capable of recognizing quantum phases of ground states. The observation of non-trivial learning properties demonstrated in these benchmarks will motivate further exploration of the quantum-data learning architecture in high-energy physics.
