• Authors: Giulio Chiribella, Kyrylo Simonov, Xuanqiang Zhao
• Abstract summary: We propose a deterministic dimension-independent scheme for estimating weak values of arbitrary observables. The scheme, based on coherently controlled SWAP operations, does not require prior knowledge of the initial and final states. We show that the scheme can be used to estimate weak values for a class of two-time states associated to bipartite quantum states with positive partial transpose.

• Abstract: Weak values of quantum observables are a powerful tool for investigating a broad spectrum of quantum phenomena. For this reason, several methods to measure them in the laboratory have been proposed. Some of these methods require weak interactions and postselection, while others are deterministic, but require statistics over a number of experiments growing exponentially with the number of measured particles. Here we propose a deterministic dimension-independent scheme for estimating weak values of arbitrary observables. The scheme, based on coherently controlled SWAP operations, does not require prior knowledge of the initial and final states, nor of the measured observables, and therefore can work with uncharacterized preparation and measurement devices. As a byproduct, our scheme provides an alternative expression for two-time states, that is, states describing quantum systems subject to pre and post-selections. Using this expression, we show that the controlled-SWAP scheme can be used to estimate weak values for a class of two-time states associated to bipartite quantum states with positive partial transpose.

  A quantum particle's state, called a time-bidirectional state, is equivalent to a joined state of two particles propagating in opposite time directions. We show how the obtained expressions reduce to known ones in the special cases of no postselection and generalized two-state (density) vectors. We employ the developed techniques for tracking of a qubit's time-reversal journey in a quantum teleportation protocol realized with a cloud-accessible noisy superconducting quantum processor.
