• Abstract: With the advent of exquisite quantum emulators, storing highly entangled many-body states becomes essential. While entanglement typically builds over time when evolving a quantum system initialized in a product state, freezing that information at any given instant requires quenching to a Hamiltonian with the time-evolved state as an eigenstate, a concept we realize via an Emergent Hamiltonian framework. While the Emergent Hamiltonian is generically non-local and may lack a closed form, we show examples where it is exact and local, thereby enabling, in principle, indefinite state storage limited only by experimental imperfections. Unlike other phenomena, such as many-body localization, our method preserves both local and global properties of the quantum state. In some of our examples, we demonstrate that this protocol can be used to store maximally entangled multi-qubit states, such as tensor products of Bell states, or fragile, globally distributed entangled states, in the form of GHZ states, which are often challenging to initialize in actual devices.

  Storing quantum information requires battling quantum decoherence, which results in a loss of information over time. To achieve error-resistant quantum memory, one would like to store the information in a quantum superposition of degenerate states engineered in such a way that local sources of noise cannot change one state into another. We show that this platform also allows to detect and correct certain types of errors en route to the goal of true error-resistant quantum memory.

• Quantum control without quantum states [0.0]
  We show that combining ideas from the fields of quantum invariants and of optimal control can be used to design optimal quantum control solutions. The states are specified only implicitly in terms of operators to which they are eigenstates. The scaling in numerical effort of the resultant approach is not given by the typically exponentially growing effort required for the specification of a time-evolved quantum state.

• Unconventional mechanism of virtual-state population through dissipation [125.99533416395765]
  We report a phenomenon occurring in open quantum systems by which virtual states can acquire a sizable population in the long time limit. This means that the situation where the virtual state remains unpopulated can be metastable. We show how these results can be relevant for practical questions such as the generation of stable and metastable entangled states in dissipative systems of interacting qubits.

• Heterogeneous Multipartite Entanglement Purification for Size-Constrained Quantum Devices [68.8204255655161]
  Purifying entanglement resources after their imperfect generation is an indispensable step towards using them in quantum architectures. Here we depart from the typical purification paradigm for multipartite states explored in the last twenty years. We find that smaller sacrificial' states, like Bell pairs, can be more useful in the purification of multipartite states than additional copies of these same states.
