• Abstract: This paper concerns SIC-POVMs and their relationship to class field theory. SIC-POVMs are generalized quantum measurements (POVMs) described by $d^2$ equiangular complex lines through the origin in $\mathbb{C}^d$. Weyl--Heisenberg SICs are those SIC-POVMs described by the orbit a single vector under a finite Weyl--Heisenberg group ${\rm WH}(d)$. We relate known data on the structure and classification of Weyl--Heisenberg SICs in low dimensions to arithmetic data attached to certain orders of real quadratic fields. For $4 \le d \le 90$, we show the number of known geometric equivalence classes of Weyl--Heisenberg SICs in dimension $d$ equals the cardinality of the ideal class monoid of the real quadratic order $\mathcal{O}_{\Delta}$ of discriminant $\Delta=(d+1)(d-3)$; we conjecture the equality extends to all $d \ge 4$. We prove that this conjecture implies the existence of more than one geometric equivalence class of Weyl--Heisenberg SICs for $d > 22$. We conjecture Galois multiplets of SICs are in one-to-one correspondence with the over-orders $\mathcal{O}'$ of $\mathcal{O}_{\Delta}$ in such a way that the number of classes in the multiplet equals the ring class number of $\mathcal{O}'$. We test that conjecture against known data on exact SICs in low dimensions. We refine the class field hypothesis of Appleby, Flammia, McConnell, and Yard (arXiv:1604.06098) to predict the exact class field over $\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{(d+1)(d-3)})$ generated by the ratios of vector entries for the equiangular lines defining a Weyl--Heisenberg SIC. The refined conjectures use a recently developed class field theory for orders of number fields (arXiv:2212.09177). The refined class fields assigned to over-orders $\mathcal{O}'$ have a natural partial order under inclusion; the inclusions of these fields fail to be strict in some cases. We characterize such cases and give a table of them for $d < 500$.

We prove that our construction gives a valid SIC in every case assuming two conjectures.

  Under nonlinear measurements, most prior results are non-uniform, i.e., they hold with high probability for a fixed $mathbfx*$ rather than for all $mathbfx*$ simultaneously. Our framework accommodates GCS with 1-bit/uniformly quantized observations and single index models as canonical examples. We also develop a concentration inequality that produces tighter bounds for product processes whose index sets have low metric entropy.

  We provide a systematic treatment of boundaries based on subgroups $Ksubseteq G$ with the Kitaev quantum double $D(G)$ model in the bulk. The boundary sites are representations of a $*$-subalgebra $Xisubseteq D(G)$ and we explicate its structure as a strong $*$-quasi-Hopf algebra. As an application of our treatment, we study patches with boundaries based on $K=G$ horizontally and $K=e$ vertically and show how these could be used in a quantum computer

  The observables associated with a quantum system $S$ form a non-commutative algebra $mathcal A_S$. It is assumed that a density matrix $rho$ can be determined from the expectation values of observables. Abelian algebras do not have inner automorphisms, so the measurement apparatus can determine mean values of observables.
