• Abstract: Quantum measurements play a fundamental role in quantum information. Therefore, increasing efforts are being made to construct symmetric measurement operators for qudit systems. A wide class of projective measurements corresponds to complex projective 2-designs, which include symmetric, informationally complete (SIC) POVMs and mutually unbiased bases (MUBs). In this paper, we establish a one-to-one correspondence between conical 2-designs and mutually unbiased generalized equiangular tight frames, both of which are common generalizations of SIC POVMs and MUBs to operators of arbitrary rank. It turns out that there exist rich families of operators that belong to only one of those two classes. This raises important questions about which symmetries have to be preserved for applicational prominence.

  We present a systematic recipe for generating and classifying duality transformations in one-dimensional quantum lattice systems. Our construction emphasizes the role of global symmetries, including those described by (non)-abelian groups. We illustrate this approach for known dualities such as Kramers-Wannier, Jordan-Wigner, Kennedy-Tasaki and the IRF-vertex correspondence.

• Relevant OTOC operators: footprints of the classical dynamics [68.8204255655161]
  The OTOC-RE theorem relates the OTOCs summed over a complete base of operators to the second Renyi entropy. We show that the sum over a small set of relevant operators, is enough in order to obtain a very good approximation for the entropy. In turn, this provides with an alternative natural indicator of complexity, i.e. the scaling of the number of relevant operators with time.

• Generalized Entanglement, Charges and Intertwiners [0.0]
  We define a measure of entanglement entropy as a measure of information erased under restriction to a subspace of observables. We argue that the correct entanglement measure in the presence of charges is the sum of two terms; one measuring the entanglement of charge-neutral operators, and the other measuring the contribution of the bi-local intertwiners.
