• Abstract summary: We show that some sets of quantum observables are unique up to an isometry and have a contextuality witness that attains the same value for any initial state. We prove that these two properties make it possible to certify any of these sets by looking at the statistics of experiments with sequential measurements.

• Abstract: We show that some sets of quantum observables are unique up to an isometry and have a contextuality witness that attains the same value for any initial state. We prove that these two properties make it possible to certify any of these sets by looking at the statistics of experiments with sequential measurements and using any initial state of full rank, including thermal and maximally mixed states. We prove that this ``certification with any full-rank state'' (CFR) is possible for any quantum system of finite dimension $d \ge 3$ and is robust and experimentally useful in dimensions 3 and 4. In addition, we prove that complete Kochen-Specker sets can be Bell self-tested if and only if they enable CFR. This establishes a fundamental connection between these two methods of certification, shows that both methods can be combined in the same experiment, and opens new possibilities for certifying quantum devices.

• Simple Tests of Quantumness Also Certify Qubits [69.96668065491183]
  A test of quantumness is a protocol that allows a classical verifier to certify (only) that a prover is not classical. We show that tests of quantumness that follow a certain template, which captures recent proposals such as (Kalai et al., 2022) can in fact do much more. Namely, the same protocols can be used for certifying a qubit, a building-block that stands at the heart of applications such as certifiable randomness and classical delegation of quantum computation.

  We introduce a single scheme allowing to certify three different types of composite projective measurements acting on a three-qubit Hilbert space. We certify a basis exhibiting NLWE in the smallest dimension capable of supporting this phenomenon. On the other hand, the possibility of certification of a measurement obtained from a UPB has an interesting implication.

• Quantum indistinguishability through exchangeable desirable gambles [69.62715388742298]
  Two particles are identical if all their intrinsic properties, such as spin and charge, are the same. Quantum mechanics is seen as a normative and algorithmic theory guiding an agent to assess her subjective beliefs represented as (coherent) sets of gambles. We show how sets of exchangeable observables (gambles) may be updated after a measurement and discuss the issue of defining entanglement for indistinguishable particle systems.

  We show that measurements in no more than 3 out of the possible $3N$ bases can reconstruct the single-qubit reduced density matrices and measure the ability to create coherent superpositions. We demonstrate that a subset of such observables can serve as entanglement witnesses for QAOA-MaxCut states, and further argue that they are especially well tailored for this purpose by defining and computing an entanglement potency metric on witnesses.

• Robust self-testing of steerable quantum assemblages and its applications on device-independent quantum certification [0.0]
  Given a Bell inequality, if its maximal quantum violation can be achieved only by a single set of measurements for each party or a single quantum state, up to local unitaries, one refers to such a phenomenon as self-testing. We propose a framework called "robust self-testing of steerable quantum assemblages" Our result is device-independent (DI), i.e., no assumption is made on the shared state and the measurement devices involved.
