- Abstract: This thesis seeks to develop a general method for solving so-called quantum realizability problems, which are questions of the following form: under which conditions does there exist a quantum state exhibiting a given collection of properties? The approach adopted by this thesis is to utilize mathematical techniques previously developed for the related problem of property estimation which is concerned with learning or estimating the properties of an unknown quantum state. Our primary result is to recognize a correspondence between (i) property values which are realized by some quantum state, and (ii) property values which are occasionally produced as estimates of a generic quantum state. Chapter 3 reviews concepts of stability and norm minimization from geometric invariant theory and non-commutative optimization theory for the purposes of characterizing the flow of a quantum state under the action of a reductive group. Chapter 4 demonstrates how the gradient of this flow, also called the moment map, can be estimated by performing a covariant quantum measurement on a large number of identical copies of the quantum state. Chapter 5 outlines the correspondence between between the realizability of a moment map value on one hand and the asymptotic likelihood it is produced as an estimate on the other hand. By appropriately composing these moment map estimation schemes, we derive necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a quantum state jointly realizing any finite collection of moment maps. Chapter 6 applies these insights to the quantum marginal problem and is a duplication of arXiv:2211.00685.
