• Abstract: Quantum state comparison, utilizing metrics like fidelity and trace distance, underpins the assessment of quantum networks within quantum information theory. While recent research has expanded theoretical understanding, incorporating error analysis and scalability considerations remains crucial for practical applications. The primary contribution of this letter is to address these gaps by deriving the novel operational trace distance for multi-node networks, establishing a trace distance vs. fidelity benchmark incorporating error bounds, and bridging quantum operations with tensor network analysis. We further explore the application of tensor network tools to quantum networks, offering new analytical avenues. This comprehensive approach provides a robust framework for evaluating quantum network performance under realistic error conditions, facilitating the development of reliable quantum technologies.

  Quantum networks connect and supply a large number of nodes with multi-party quantum resources for secure communication, networked quantum computing and distributed sensing. As these networks grow in size, certification tools will be required to answer questions regarding their properties. We demonstrate a general method to guarantee that certain correlations cannot be generated in a given quantum network.
