• Abstract: Entanglement distribution is crucial for quantum communication and cryptography but is hindered by channel loss and decoherence. Noiseless linear amplification (NLA) is a probabilistic protocol that supports noiseless amplification without violating the no-cloning theorem, aiding in tasks like entanglement distillation and enhanced metrology. The probabilistic nature of NLA and other quantum repeater elements creates a significant resource overhead, which depends on the success rate of each individual probabilistic step. We experimentally demonstrate a technique to increase NLA success probability while maintaining the amplification gain and the fidelity of the amplified state with a maximally entangled state. We show that symmetrically distributing loss before and after the amplification provides an improved scaling of the success rates of NLA. Our results are a critical step towards scalable quantum repeaters and enable efficient long-distance quantum communication

  Skip-Tuning is a simple yet surprisingly effective training-free tuning method on the skip connections. Our method can achieve 100% FID improvement for pretrained EDM on ImageNet 64 with only 19 NFEs (1.75) While Skip-Tuning increases the score-matching losses in the pixel space, the losses in the feature space are reduced.

• Saturating the Maximum Success Probability Bound for Noiseless Linear Amplification using Linear Optics [0.0]
  A noiseless linear amplifier (NLA) performs the highest quality amplification allowable under the rules of quantum physics. Unfortunately, these same rules conspire against us via the no-cloning theorem, which constrains NLA operations to the domain of probabilistic processes. Here we propose the first linear optics NLA protocol which achieves this success probability bound, by modifying the Knill-Laflamme-Milburn near-deterministic teleporter into an amplifier.
