• Abstract: The paper is devoted to projective Clifford groups of quantum $N$-dimensional systems. Clearly, Clifford gates allow only the simplest quantum computations which can be simulated on a classical computer (Gottesmann-Knill theorem). However, it may serve as a cornerstone of full quantum computation. As to its group structure it is well-known that -- in $N$-dimensional quantum mechanics -- the Clifford group is a natural semidirect product provided the dimension $N$ is an odd number. For even $N$ special results on the Clifford groups are scattered in the mathematical literature, but they don't concern the semidirect structure. Using appropriate group presentation of $SL(2,Z_N)$ it is proved that for even $N$ projective Clifford groups are not natural semidirect products if and only if $N$ is divisible by four.

  We show how to reduce the geometry of degenerate states to the non-abelian connection $A$. We find independent invariants associated with each triple of subspaces. Some of them generalize the Berry-Pancharatnam phase, and some do not have analogues for 1-dimensional subspaces.

  We perform classical simulations of the 127-qubit kicked Ising model, which was recently emulated using a quantum circuit with error mitigation. Our approach is based on the projected entangled pair operator (PEPO) in the Heisenberg picture. We develop a Clifford expansion theory to compute exact expectation values and use them to evaluate algorithms.

• Homotopy Classification of loops of Clifford unitaries [0.0]
  We study Clifford quantum circuits acting on $mathsfd$-dimensional lattices of prime $p$-dimensional qudits. We calculate homotopy classes of such loops for any odd $p$ and $mathsfd=0,1,2,3$, and $4$. We observe that the homotopy classes of loops of Clifford circuits in $(mathsfd+1)$-dimensions coincide with the quotient of the group of Clifford Quantum Cellular Automata modulo shallow circuits and lattice translations in $mathsfd$-dimensions

  We show a new way to relate functions on the hypergrid to their harmonic extensions over the polytorus. We show the supremum of a function $f$ over products of the cyclic group $exp(2pi i k/K)_k=1K$. We extend to new spaces a recent line of work citeEI22, CHP, VZ22 that gave similarly efficient methods for learning low-degrees on hypercubes and observables on qubits.

A classical decoder can retrieve with fidelity one all the information scrambled by a random unitary. Results show that one can learn the salient properties of quantum unitaries in a classical form.

We show that any tight teleportation scheme for $N$ necessarily arises from an orthonormal unitary Pimsner-Popa basis of $M_n(mathbbC)$ over $N'$.

We show that the Boltzmann weights are invariant under a symmetry group involving matrices with entries in the finite number field $bf F_p$. We show that Clifford monitored circuits with on-site Hilbert space dimension $d=pM$ are described by percolation in the limits $d to infty$ at (a) $p=$ fixed but $Mto infty$,

  The Clifford group plays a central role in quantum randomized benchmarking, quantum tomography, and error correction protocols. We show that any Clifford operator can be uniquely written in the canonical form $F_HSF$. A surprising connection is highlighted between random uniform Clifford operators and the Mallows distribution on the symmetric group.
