• Authors: Yoshihito Kuno, Ikuo Ichinose
• Abstract summary: In this work, we extend the interplay between quantum information system and gauge-theory model from the view point of subsystem code. We show that $Z$ lattice-Higgs model in (2+1)-dimensions with specific open boundary conditions is noting but a kind of subsystem code. Mixed anomaly of them dictates the existence of boundary zero modes, which is a direct consequence of symmetry-protected topological order in Higgs and confinement phases.

• Abstract: It is now widely recognized that the toric code is a pure gauge-theory model governed by a projective Hamiltonian with topological orders. In this work, we extend the interplay between quantum information system and gauge-theory model from the view point of subsystem code, which is suitable for \textit{gauge systems including matter fields}. As an example, we show that $Z_2$ lattice gauge-Higgs model in (2+1)-dimensions with specific open boundary conditions is noting but a kind of subsystem code. In the system, Gauss-law constraints are stabilizers, and order parameters identifying Higgs and confinement phases exist and they are nothing but logical operators in subsystem codes residing on the boundaries. Mixed anomaly of them dictates the existence of boundary zero modes, which is a direct consequence of symmetry-protected topological order in Higgs and confinement phases. After identifying phase diagram, subsystem codes are embedded in the Higgs and confinement phases. As our main findings, we give an explicit description of the code (encoded qubit) in the Higgs and confinement phases, which clarifies duality between Higgs and confinement phases. The degenerate structure of subsystem code in the Higgs and confinement phases remains even in very high-energy levels, which is analogous to notion of strong-zero modes observed in some interesting condensed-matter systems. Numerical methods are used to corroborate analytically-obtained results and the obtained spectrum structure supports the analytical description of various subsystem codes in the gauge theory phases.

For systems with emergent fermions, despite that the ground state subspaces could be exponentially huge, we show that the GEM also scales linearly in the system size. Our results also establish an intriguing link between quantum anomaly and entanglement.

  An entanglement measure based on the Fubini-Study metric has been recently introduced by Cocchiarella and co-workers. We present the Gaussian Entanglement Measure (GEM), a generalization of geometric entanglement measure for multimode Gaussian states. By providing a computable multipartite entanglement measure for systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that our definition can be used to obtain insights into a free bosonic field theory.

  We establish rigorous connections between quantum circuit complexity and approximate quantum error correction (AQEC) properties. Our key finding is that if the subsystem variance is below an $O(k/n)$ threshold then any state in the code subspace must obey certain circuit complexity lower bounds. This theory of AQEC provides a versatile framework for understanding the quantum complexity and order of many-body quantum systems.

  We introduce a family of neural quantum states for the simulation of strongly interacting systems in the presence of periodicity. For one-dimensional systems we find very precise estimations of the ground-state energies and the radial distribution functions of the particles. In two dimensions we obtain good estimations of the ground-state energies, comparable to results obtained from more conventional methods.

• Trajectories without quantum uncertainties in composite systems with disparate energy spectra [0.0]
  measurement-induced quantum back action can be eliminated in composite systems by engineering quantum-mechanics-free subspaces. The utility of the concept has been limited by the requirement of close proximity of the resonance frequencies of the system of interest and the negative-mass reference system. Here we propose a general approach which overcomes these limitations by employing periodic modulation of the driving fields.

  We show that a controlled interaction with the environment may help to create a state, dubbed as em dark'', which is immune to decoherence. To encode quantum information in the dark states, they need to span a space with a dimensionality larger than one, so different states act as a computational basis. This approach offers new possibilities for storing, protecting and manipulating quantum information in open systems.

  Quantum Hall systems are characterized by the quantization of the Hall conductance -- a bulk property rooted in the topological structure of the underlying quantum states. Here, we realize a quantum Hall system using ultracold dysprosium atoms, in a two-dimensional geometry formed by one spatial dimension. We demonstrate that the large number of magnetic sublevels leads to distinct bulk and edge behaviors.
