• Abstract: In recent decades, quantum technologies have made significant strides toward achieving quantum utility. However, practical applications are hindered by challenges related to scaling the number of qubits and the depth of circuits. In this paper, we investigate how current quantum computers can be leveraged for practical applications, particularly in generating secure random numbers certified by Quantum Mechanics. While random numbers can be generated and certified in a device-independent manner through the violation of Bell's inequality, this method requires significant spatial separation to satisfy the no-signaling condition, making it impractical for implementation on a single quantum computer. Instead, we employ temporal correlations to generate randomness by violating the Leggett-Garg inequality, which relies on the No-Signaling in Time condition to certify randomness, thus overcoming spatial constraints. By applying this protocol to existing quantum computers, we demonstrate the feasibility of secure, semi-device-independent random number generation using low-depth circuits with single-qubit gates.

  We introduce a quantum hardness assumption called the Hamiltonian Phase State (HPS) problem. We show that our assumption is plausibly fully quantum; meaning, it cannot be used to construct one-way functions. We show that our assumption and its variants allow us to efficiently construct many pseudorandom quantum primitives.

  Current generation noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computers are severely limited in chip size and error rates. We derive localized circuit transformations to efficiently compress quantum circuits for simulation of certain spin Hamiltonians known as free fermions. The proposed numerical circuit compression algorithm behaves backward stable and scales cubically in the number of spins enabling circuit synthesis beyond $mathcalO(103)$ spins.
