• Authors: Aaron J. Friedman, Chao Yin, Yifan Hong, and Andrew Lucas
• Abstract summary: We extend the Lieb-Robinson Theorem to quantum dynamics with measurements. We find at most an $(M hspace-0.5mm +hspace-0.5mm)$-fold enhancement to the speed $v$ of quantum information. Our results impose limits on the use of measurements and active feedback to speed up quantum information processing.

• Abstract: The speed of light $c$ sets a strict upper bound on the speed of information transfer in both classical and quantum systems. In nonrelativistic quantum systems, the Lieb-Robinson Theorem imposes an emergent speed limit $v \hspace{-0.2mm} \ll \hspace{-0.2mm} c$, establishing locality under unitary evolution and constraining the time needed to perform useful quantum tasks. We extend the Lieb-Robinson Theorem to quantum dynamics with measurements. In contrast to the expectation that measurements can arbitrarily violate spatial locality, we find at most an $(M \hspace{-0.5mm} +\hspace{-0.5mm} 1)$-fold enhancement to the speed $v$ of quantum information, provided the outcomes of measurements in $M$ local regions are known. This holds even when classical communication is instantaneous, and extends beyond projective measurements to weak measurements and other nonunitary channels. Our bound is asymptotically optimal, and saturated by existing measurement-based protocols. We tightly constrain the resource requirements for quantum computation, error correction, teleportation, and generating entangled resource states (Bell, GHZ, quantum-critical, Dicke, W, and spin-squeezed states) from short-range-entangled initial states. Our results impose limits on the use of measurements and active feedback to speed up quantum information processing, resolve fundamental questions about the nature of measurements in quantum dynamics, and constrain the scalability of a wide range of proposed quantum technologies.

  Quantum many-body problems are central to demystifying some exotic quantum phenomena, e.g., high-temperature superconductors. The combination of neural networks (NN) for representing quantum states, and the Variational Monte Carlo (VMC) algorithm, has been shown to be a promising method for solving such problems. We propose a NN architecture called Vector-Quantized Neural Quantum States (VQ-NQS) that utilizes vector-quantization techniques to leverage redundancies in the local-energy calculations of the VMC algorithm.

  In quantum metrology, entanglement represents a valuable resource that can be used to overcome the Standard Quantum Limit () that bounds the precision of sensors that operate with independent particles. We implement an effective time-reversal protocol through a controlled sign change in an optically engineered many-body Hamiltonian. Using a system of 350 neutral $171$Yb atoms, this signal amplification through time-reversed interaction protocol achieves the largest sensitivity improvement beyond the Standard Quantum Limit.

• Observing crossover between quantum speed limits [0.0]
  Two well-known quantum speed limits are the Mandelstam-Tamm and the Margolus-Levitin bounds. Here, we test concurrently both limits in a multi-level system by following the motion of a single atom in an optical trap. Our data reveal two different regimes: one where the Mandelstam-Tamm limit constrains the evolution at all times, and a second where a crossover to the Margolus-Levitin limit is manifested at longer times.
