• Abstract: Single particle detection is described in a limited way by simple models of measurements in quantum field theory. We show that a general approach, using Kraus operators in spacetime constructed from natural combinations of fields, leads to an efficient model of a single particle detector. The model is free from any auxiliary objects as it is defined solely within the existing quantum field framework. It can be applied to a large family of setups where the time resolution of the measurement is relevant, such as Bell correlations or sequential measurement. We also discuss the limitations and working regimes of the model.

  Pointlike systems coupled to quantum fields are often employed as toy models for measurements in quantum field theory. We show that in models that work in the strong coupling regime, the apparatus is correlated with smeared field amplitudes, while in models that work in weak coupling the apparatus records particle aspects of the field.

  Entanglement, and quantum correlation, are precious resources for quantum technologies implementation based on quantum information science. We derive an explicit measure able to quantify the degree of quantum correlation for pure or mixed multipartite states. We prove that our entanglement measure is textitfaithful in the sense that it vanishes only on the set of separable states.

  Generative modeling is a widely accepted natural use case for quantum computers. We construct a simple and unambiguous approach to probe practical quantum advantage for generative modeling by measuring the algorithm's generalization performance. Our simulation results show that our quantum-inspired models have up to a $68 times$ enhancement in generating unseen unique and valid samples.

  We show how to predict and experimentally observe the emergence of random state ensembles naturally under time-independent Hamiltonian dynamics. The observed random ensembles emerge from projective measurements and are intimately linked to universal correlations built up between subsystems of a larger quantum system. Our work has implications for understanding randomness in quantum dynamics, and enables applications of this concept in a wider context.

  We study the phenomenon of transmission across the singularity that separates the two half-cylinders. All the local realisations of the free (Laplace-Beltrami) quantum Hamiltonian are examined as non-equivalent protocols of transmission/reflection. This allows to comprehend the distinguished status of the so-called bridging' transmission protocol previously identified in the literature.

We present and analyze a quantum algorithm based on non-unitary randomized simulation methods.
