• Abstract: In this work we design a procedure to estimate the minimum size beyond which a system is amenable to a classical-like description, i.e. a description based on representative points in classical phase-spaces. This is obtained by relating quantum states to representative points via Generalized Coherent States (GCS), and designing a POVM for GCS discrimination. Conditions upon this discrimination are defined, such that the POVM results convey enough information to meet our needs for reliability and precision, as gauged by two parameters $\epsilon$, of our arbitrary choice, and $\delta$, set by the experimental apparatus, respectively. The procedure implies a definition of what is meant by "size" of the system, in terms of the number $N$ of elementary constituents that provide the global algebra leading to the phase-space for the emergent classical-like description. The above conditions on GCS discrimination can be thus turned into $N>N_{\rm t}(\epsilon,\delta)$, where $N_{\rm t}(\epsilon,\delta)$ is the threshold size mentioned in the title. The specific case of a magnetic system is considered, with details of a gedanken experiment presented and thoroughly commented. Results for pseudo-spin and bosonic systems are also given.

  Recent studies show that a reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS) is not a suitable space to model functions by neural networks. In this paper, we study a suitable function space for over- parameterized two-layer neural networks with bounded norms.

  We consider the standard quantum information decoupling, in which Alice aims to decouple her system from the environment by local operations and discarding some of her systems. We find an achievability bound in entanglement distillation protocol, where the objective is for Alice and Bob to transform their quantum state to maximally entangled state with largest possible dimension.

  We consider the problem in its generality for memoryless channels with finite output, but arbitrary input alphabets. Our main findings are that the maximum number of messages thus identifiable scales super-exponentially as $2R,nlog n$ with the block length $n$. Results are shown to generalise directly to classical-quantum channels with finite-dimensional output quantum system.

  The GRadient Ascent Pulse Engineering (GRAPE) method is widely used for optimization in quantum control. We adopt GRAPE method for optimizing objective functionals for open quantum systems driven by both coherent and incoherent controls. The efficiency of the algorithm is demonstrated through numerical simulations for the state-to-state transition problem.

  We look for a basis with optimal single-sided mutual state distinguishability in $Ntimes N$ Hilbert space. In the case $N=2$ of a two-qubit system our solution coincides with the elegant joint measurement introduced by Gisin. We show that the one-party measurement that distinguishes the states of an optimal basis of the composite system leads to a local quantum state tomography.
