• Title: Beyond Gaussian Quantum Channels: A model case
• Authors: Daniel Speed, Wenyang Lyu and Roman Schubert
• Abstract summary: We study a relatively simple model case, where the quantum channel is generated by a Lindblad equation. We compute the characteristic function of the action of the channel on a Gaussian state explicitly and we can as well derive a representation of the propagator in an integral form. This allows us to compare the exact results with semiclassical approximations and perturbation theory and evaluate their accuracy.

• Abstract: Gaussian quantum channels are well understood and have many applications, e.g., in Quantum Information Theory and in Quantum Optics. For more general quantum channels one can in general use semiclassical approximations or perturbation theory, but it is not easy to judge the accuracy of such methods. We study a relatively simple model case, where the quantum channel is generated by a Lindblad equation where one of the Lindblad operators is a multiple of the internal Hamiltonian, and therefore the channel is not Gaussian. For this model we can compute the characteristic function of the action of the channel on a Gaussian state explicitly and we can as well derive a representation of the propagator in an integral form. This allows us to compare the exact results with semiclassical approximations and perturbation theory and evaluate their accuracy. We finally apply these results to the study of the evolution of the von Neumann entropy of a state.

  We reformulate the technique of third quantization in a way that explicitly connects all three methods. We first show that our formulation reveals a fundamental dissipative symmetry present in all quadratic bosonic or fermionic Lindbladians. For bosons, we then show that the Wigner function and the characteristic function can be thought of as ''wavefunctions'' of the density matrix.

• Non-perturbative simple-generated interactions with a quantum field for arbitrary Gaussian states [0.0]
  We extend the relativistic quantum channel associated to non-perturbative models to include a very large class of Gaussian states of the quantum field. We show that all physical results involving the non-vacuum Gaussian states can be rephrased in terms of interaction with the vacuum state. In these non-perturbative models it is possible to perform exact computation of the R'enyi entropy.

Next, we prove how the generalization error bound of QGANs depends on the employed Ansatz, the number of qudits, and input states.

  Kitaev spin models are well known for being exactly solvable in a certain parameter regime via a mapping to free fermions. We use classical simulations to explore a novel variational ansatz that takes advantage of this fermionic representation. We also comment on the implications of our results for simulating non-Abelian anyons on quantum computers.

  We consider general ergodic sequences of quantum channels with arbitrary correlations and non-negligible decoherence. We compute the entanglement spectrum across any cut, by which the bipartite entanglement entropy can be computed exactly. Other physical implications of our results are that most Floquet phases of matter are metastable and that noisy random circuits in the large depth limit will be trivial as far as their quantum entanglement is concerned.
