• Abstract: We consider quantum systems with a Hamiltonian containing a weak perturbation i.e. $\boldsymbol{H=H_0} + \boldsymbol{\lambda} \cdot \boldsymbol{\tilde{H}}$, $\boldsymbol{\lambda}= \{\lambda_1, \lambda_2,...\}$, $\boldsymbol{\tilde{H}}$ $= \{H_1, H_2,...\}$, $\left|\boldsymbol{\lambda}\right| \ll 1$, and address situations where $\boldsymbol{\tilde{H}}$ is known but the values of the couplings $\boldsymbol{\lambda}$ are unknown, and should be determined by performing measurements on the system. We consider two scenarios: in the first one we assume that measurements are performed on a given stationary state of the system, e.g., the ground state, whereas in the second one an initial state is prepared and then measured after evolution. In both cases, we look for the optimal measurements to estimate the couplings and evaluate the ultimate limits to precision. In particular, we derive general results for one and two couplings, and analyze in details some specific qubit models. Our results indicates that dynamical estimation schemes may provide enhanced precision upon a suitable choice of the initial preparation and the interaction time.

  This article is devoted to developing an approach for manipulating the von Neumann entropy $S(rho(t))$ of an open two-qubit system with coherent control and incoherent control inducing time-dependent decoherence rates. The following goals are considered: (a) minimizing or maximizing the final entropy $S(rho(T))$; (b) steering $S(rho(T))$ to a given target value; (c) steering $S(rho(T))$ to a target value and satisfying the pointwise state constraint $S(

  We perform a detailed estimate for the prospect of using deep entanglement renormalization ansatz on a fault-tolerant quantum computer. For probing a relatively large system size, we observe up to an order of magnitude reduction in the number of qubits. For estimating the energy per site of $epsilon$, $mathcalOleft(fraclog Nepsilon right)$ $T$ gates and $mathcalOleft(log Nright)$ qubits suffice.

• A Unified Framework for Uniform Signal Recovery in Nonlinear Generative Compressed Sensing [68.80803866919123]
  Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

  We study the number of gates needed for the distribution over measurement outcomes for typical circuit instances to be anti-concentrated. Our definition of anti-concentration is that the expected collision probability is only a constant factor larger than if the distribution were uniform. In both the case where the gates are nearest-neighbor on a 1D ring and the case where gates are long-range, we show $O(n log(n)) gates are also sufficient.

• Quantum Algorithms for Simulating the Lattice Schwinger Model [63.18141027763459]
  We give scalable, explicit digital quantum algorithms to simulate the lattice Schwinger model in both NISQ and fault-tolerant settings. In lattice units, we find a Schwinger model on $N/2$ physical sites with coupling constant $x-1/2$ and electric field cutoff $x-1/2Lambda$. We estimate observables which we cost in both the NISQ and fault-tolerant settings by assuming a simple target observable---the mean pair density.
