• Abstract: Current advances in nonlinear optics have made it possible to perform a homodyne-like tomography of an unknown state without highly efficient detectors or a strong local oscillator. Thereby, a new experimental direction has been opened into multimode and large-bandwidth quantum optics. An optical parametric amplifier (OPA) allows us to reconstruct the quadrature distribution of an unknown state directly from the measured intensity distribution with high precision. We propose adding a controllable displacement to the standard scheme, obtaining an improved method applicable even to asymmetric and non-Gaussian states while significantly increasing estimation accuracy and lowering the OPA amplification requirement. To demonstrate the power of our method, we accurately detect the sub-Planck phase-space structure by a distillable squeezing from the OPA estimates of various non-Gaussian states. With the improvements, OPA tomography became a generally applicable loss-tolerant and efficient alternative to OPA-assisted homodyne detection.

  We show that non-Gaussian measurements can achieve near-optimal coherent state discrimination. We explicitly design two coherent state discrimination protocols based on non-Gaussian detection and unitary operations. Our results show that we can achieve error rates close to the Helstrom bound at low energies with continuously labelled measurements.

  Diffusion models tend to reconstruct normal counterparts of test images with certain noises added. From the global perspective, the difficulty of reconstructing images with different anomalies is uneven. We propose a global and local adaptive diffusion model (abbreviated to GLAD) for unsupervised anomaly detection.

  Realization of a room-temperature ultra-fast photon-number-resolving (PNR) quantum nondemolition (QND) measurement would have significant implications for photonic quantum information processing (QIP) We show that a coherent pump field driving a phase-mismatched optical parametric amplifier (OPA) experiences displacements conditioned on the number of signal Bogoliubov excitations. A measurement of the pump displacement thus provides a QND measurement of the signal Bogoliubov excitations, projecting the signal mode to a squeezed photon-number state.

  Complex structure inherent in Orbital Angular Momentum (OAM) states makes their detection and classification nontrivial. Most of the current detection schemes are based on models of the OAM states built upon the use of Laguerre-Gauss modes. We employ Hypergeometric-Gaussian modes as the basis states of a refined model that can be used -- in certain scenarios -- to better tailor OAM detection techniques.

  Quantum non-Gaussian gate is a missing piece to the realization of continuous-variable universal quantum operations in the optical system. In a measurement-based implementation of the cubic phase gate, a lowest-order non-Gaussian gate, non-Gaussian ancillary states that has a property we call nonlinear squeezing are required. In this paper, we generate a superposition between a vacuum state and a single photon state whose nonlinear squeezing are maximized by the optimization of the superposition coefficients.
