• Abstract summary: We discuss the characterization tools that were developed to interpret the results of a boson sampling experiment performed at JILA. We show that the indistinguishability of the atoms was a good predictor of the multiparticle bunching features. We discuss how to optimize the experimental design for inferring the single-particle unitary from Fock basis measurements.

• Abstract: Boson sampling is the task of producing samples from the number-basis distribution of many bosons traveling through a passive linear optical network. It is believed to be extremely difficult to accomplish classically, and has been the motivation for many "quantum advantage" demonstrations. Here we discuss the characterization tools that were developed to interpret the results of a boson sampling experiment performed at JILA, using atoms instead of photons. We measured the indistinguishability of the atoms using a Hong-Ou-Mandel style measurement, and found that it was $99.5^{+0.5}_{-1.6}\%$. We then showed that the indistinguishability of the atoms was a good predictor of the multiparticle bunching features, which in turn was a measure of multiparticle indistinguishability itself. To make this latter connection explicit, we introduce the weak generalized bunching conjecture and show it is equivalent to an existing mathematical conjecture. For the purpose of characterizing the dynamics that were present in the experiment, we discuss how to optimize the experimental design for inferring the single-particle unitary from Fock basis measurements. We showed that having very cold atoms was necessary to perform the inference of the dynamics in a reasonable amount of time. We then partially characterized the single particle unitary via direct measurements using one and two atoms, and compared our measurements to a separate characterization using a new statistic that describes the deviation between the two characterization methods while being insensitive to uninferable parameters.

• The Second Moment of Hafnians in Gaussian Boson Sampling [0.0]
  Anticoncentration is a second-moment property of the output probabilities. We develop a graph-theoretic method to study these moments and use it to identify a transition in anticoncentration. These results allow us to pinpoint the transition in anticoncentration and furthermore yield the expected linear cross-entropy benchmarking score for an ideal (error-free) device.

  Iterated Denoising Energy Matching (iDEM) iDEM alternates between (I) sampling regions of high model density from a diffusion-based sampler and (II) using these samples in our matching objective. We show that the proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art performance on all metrics and trains $2-5times$ faster.

  We develop a graph-theoretic framework for analyzing the moments of the Gaussian Boson Sampling distribution. We show that when the number of initially squeezed modes scales sufficiently slowly with the number of photons, there is a lack of anticoncentration.

  We examine in a systematic way the most relevant orderings of pure kinetic Hamiltonians for five different position-dependent mass profiles. As a result of the non-commutativity between momentum and position operators, a diversity of effective potentials is generated. We obtain analytically the full-spectrum of energies and solutions in the twenty-five cases considered.

  The interaction of an ensemble of $N$ two-level atoms with a single mode electromagnetic field is described by the Tavis-Cummings model. Here, we show that this is only justified if the effective scattering rate into non-cavity modes is negligible. We show that the predictions of our model can differ quantitatively and even qualitatively from those obtained with the Tavis-Cummings model.

  We propose applying time-dependent photo-emission spectroscopy, an established tool in solid state systems, in cold atom quantum simulators. We show in exact diagonalization simulations of the one-dimensional $t-J$ model that the spinons start to populate previously unoccupied states in an effective band structure. The dependence of the spectral function on the time after the pump pulse reveals collective interactions among spinons.

  We study how the probability of presence of a particle is distributed between the two parts of a composite fermionic system. We prove that it is a non-perturbative property and we find out a large/small coupling constant duality. Inspired by the proof of KAM theorem, we are able to deal with this problem by introducing a cut-off in energies that eliminates these small denominators.
