• Abstract: We propose efficient algorithms for classically simulating Gaussian unitaries and measurements applied to non-Gaussian initial states. The constructions are based on decomposing the non-Gaussian states into linear combinations of Gaussian states. We use an extension of the covariance matrix formalism to efficiently track relative phases in the superpositions of Gaussian states. We get an exact simulation algorithm which cost scales quadratically with the number of Gaussian states required to represent the initial state and an approximate simulation algorithm which cost scales linearly with the $l_1$ norm of the coefficients associated with the superposition. We define measures of non-Gaussianty quantifying this simulation cost, which we call the Gaussian rank and the Gaussian extent. From the perspective of quantum resource theories, we investigate the properties of this type of non-Gaussianity measure and compute optimal decomposition for states relevant to continuous-variable quantum computing.

  We propose efficient classical algorithms to simulate bosonic linear optics circuits applied to superpositions of Gaussian states. We present an exact simulation algorithm whose runtime is in the number of modes and the size of the circuit. We also present a faster approximate randomized algorithm whose runtime is quadratic in this number.

  An entanglement measure based on the Fubini-Study metric has been recently introduced by Cocchiarella and co-workers. We present the Gaussian Entanglement Measure (GEM), a generalization of geometric entanglement measure for multimode Gaussian states. By providing a computable multipartite entanglement measure for systems with a large number of degrees of freedom, we show that our definition can be used to obtain insights into a free bosonic field theory.

• Classical simulation of non-Gaussian fermionic circuits [0.4972323953932129]
  We argue that this problem is analogous to that of simulating Clifford circuits with non-stabilizer initial states. Our construction is based on an extension of the covariance matrix formalism which permits to efficiently track relative phases in superpositions of Gaussian states. It yields simulation algorithms with complexity in the number of fermions, the desired accuracy, and certain quantities capturing the degree of non-Gaussianity of the initial state.

• Gaussian decomposition of magic states for matchgate computations [0.0]
  Magic states, pivotal for universal quantum computation via classically simulable Clifford gates, often undergo decomposition into resourceless stabilizer states. This approach yields three operationally significant metrics: stabilizer rank, fidelity, and extent. We extend these simulation methods to encompass matchgate circuits (MGCs), and define equivalent metrics for this setting.

We also consider the generation of cat states from photon-added and photon-subtracted squeezed states, improving over known schemes by introducing additional squeezing operations.

  We study the classical simulatability of Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) states in combination with arbitrary displacements, a large set of symplectic operations and homodyne measurements. For these types of circuits, neither continuous-variable theorems based on the non-negativity of quasi-probability distributions nor discrete-variable theorems can be employed to assess the simulatability.

  We propose a plug-and-play compressed sensing (CS) recovery algorithm suitable for any i.i.d. source prior. Our algorithm builds upon Borgerding's learned AMP (LAMP), yet significantly improves it by adopting a universal denoising function within the algorithm. Numerical evaluation shows that the L-GM-AMP algorithm achieves state-of-the-art performance without any knowledge of the source prior.
