Matrix product states (MPSs) and matrix product operators (MPOs) have been proven to be a powerful tool to study quantum many-body systems but are restricted to moderately entangled states as the number of parameters scales exponentially with the entanglement entropy. While MPSs can efficiently find…

We study the time evolution of mean values of quantum operators in a regime plagued by two difficulties: the smallness of ℏ and the presence of strong and ubiquitous classical chaos. While numerics become too computationally expensive for purely quantum calculations as ℏ→0, methods that take advanta…

In a trapped-ion system, accurate thermometry of ions is crucial for precisely evaluating the system state and performing quantum operations. However, when the motional state of a single ion is far away from the ground state, the spatial dimensionality of the phonon state sharply increases. Then it …

The quantum switch, the canonical example of a process with indefinite causal order, has been claimed to provide various advantages over processes with definite causal orders for some particular tasks in the field of quantum metrology. In this work, we argue that some of these advantages in fact do …

Neutrinos can change flavors due to their nonzero masses and mixings as well as their interactions with matter and other neutrinos. In dense astrophysical environments, such as core-collapse supernovae or neutron star mergers, the problem of neutrino flavor evolution becomes very complex. Connections to other domains such as quantum information theory have been uncovered. Understanding the neutrino flavor evolution in dense environments can shed light on the dynamics of massive star explosions and the origin of heavy elements in the Universe and is important for future observations of supernova neutrinos.

Leggett-Garg inequalities (LGIs) have been proposed in order to assess how far the predictions of quantum mechanics defy “macroscopic realism.” With LGIs, correlations of measurements performed on a single system at different times are described. We report on an experiment that demonstrates the viol…

Hamiltonian simulation is a major application of quantum computing, for example, enabling prediction of the properties of molecules. Prior work has used product formulas with randomization to improve performance, but has only yielded modest improvements over the excellent performance provided by det…

Nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation has been proposed as a method to implement quantum logic gates with robustness comparable to that of adiabatic holonomic gates but with shorter execution times. In this paper, we establish an isoholonomic inequality for quantum gates, which provides a lower…

Microwave single-photon detection is one of the critical tasks for the implementation of the desired microwave quantum information processing. Given the detection efficiency of the demonstrated microwave single-photon detector is still very limited, here, we propose a nonreciprocity detector array t…

Quantum batteries (QBs) are energy storage and transfer microdevices that open up new possibilities in energy technology. Here, we derive a resonator–multiple-qutrit quantum battery (QB) model consisting of a multimode resonator and N superconducting transmon qutrits. We investigate the charging and…

Quantum nonlocality, pioneered in Bell’s seminal work and subsequently verified through a series of experiments, has drawn substantial attention due to its practical applications in various protocols. Evaluating and comparing the extent of nonlocality within distinct quantum correlations holds signi…

We study the spreading of quantum information in a recently introduced family of brickwork quantum circuits that generalizes the dual-unitary class. These circuits are unitary in time, while their spatial dynamics is unitary only in a restricted subspace. First, we show that local operators spread a…

In a recent paper [Das, Modak, and Bera, Phys. Rev. A 107, 042413 (2023)], Das et al. claim that Kirkwood-Dirac negativity is not required to achieve anomalous values of the quantum Fisher information encoded in postselected (filtered) particles. We argue that this claim is wrong. Further, we show t…

As quantum circuits become more integrated and complex, additional error sources that were previously insignificant start to emerge. Consequently, the fidelity of quantum gates benchmarked under pristine conditions falls short of predicting their performance in realistic circuits. To overcome this p…
