• Title: Two-detector reconstruction of multiphoton states in linear optical networks
• Authors: Tudor-Alexandru Isdrailǎ, Jun-Yi Wu,
• Abstract summary: We propose a method for partial state reconstruction of multiphoton states in linear optical networks (LONs) employing only two bucket photon-number-resolving (PNR) detectors. The reconstructed Heisenberg-Weyl-reduced density matrix captures quantum coherence and symmetry with respect to Heisenberg-Weyl operators. This method offers a resource-efficient solution for state characterization in large-scale LONs to advance photonic quantum technologies.

• Abstract: We propose a method for partial state reconstruction of multiphoton states in multimode ($N$-photon $M$-mode) linear optical networks (LONs) employing only two bucket photon-number-resolving (PNR) detectors. The reconstructed Heisenberg-Weyl-reduced density matrix captures quantum coherence and symmetry with respect to Heisenberg-Weyl operators. Employing deterministic quantum computing with one qubit (DQC1) circuits, we reduce the detector requirement from $M$ to $2$, while the requirement on measurement configurations is retained $2M^{3}-2M$. To ensure physicality, maximum likelihood estimation (MLE) is incorporated into the DQC1 reconstruction process, with numerical simulations demonstrating the efficiency of our approach and its robustness against interferometer noises. This method offers a resource-efficient solution for state characterization in large-scale LONs to advance photonic quantum technologies.

• Enhanced Shadow Tomography of Molecular Excited States from Enforcing $N$-representability Conditions by Semidefinite Programming [0.0]
  We present an algorithm that combines classical shadow tomography with physical constraints on the two-electron reduced density matrix (2-RDM) to treat excited states. The method reduces the number of measurements of the many-electron 2-RDM on quantum computers by (i) approximating the quantum state through a random sampling technique called shadow tomography. We compute excited-state energies and 2-RDMs of the H$_4$ chain and analyze the critical points along the photoexcited reaction pathway from gauche-1,3-butadiene to bicyclobutane via a conical intersection.
