  • Efficient targeting of arbitrary excited states with quantum inverse power iteration through filtering polynomials

    In this work, we introduce a quantum inverse power iteration (QIPI) algorithm based on the quantum singular value transformation (QSVT) to target arbitrary excited states. Given an energy shift $ω$, QIPI prepares the target excited state by iteratively applying an approximation of the shifted inverse Hamiltonian $(H-ωI)^{-1}$ to a trial state. Prior quantum inverse power app...

  • Noise-Directed Adaptive Remapping for Integer Optimization: from qubits to (encoded) qudits

    We extend Noise-Directed Adaptive Remapping (NDAR), a recently proposed heuristic meta-algorithm that leverages device noise as a computational resource, to optimization problems over discrete (integer) domains. While originally introduced for unconstrained binary optimization, the proposed generalization introduces additional gauge degrees of freedom at the logical level, s...

  • Vacuum Fluctuation-Induced State Switching in Degenerate Optical Parametric Oscillators

    Bistable driven-dissipative systems near bifurcations can exhibit noise-activated switching between steady states. Here, we investigate how quantum vacuum fluctuations induce such switching in a biased optical parametric oscillator (OPO), a nonlinear system with intrinsic bistability. We show how microscopic quantum fluctuations driving macroscopic transitions can be control...

  • Simulating the Dynamics of Markovian Quantum Processes by Quantum Collision Models on Quantum Computers

    Hamiltonian dynamics have been widely implemented on noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices in recent years. In contrast, experimental demonstrations of Markovian quantum dynamics remain limited, because implementing nonunitary evolution on quantum computers is challenging. Quantum collision models provide a natural approach to this problem by coupling the system to ancill...

  • Parameter-Efficient Quantum-Inspired Fast Weight Programmers for Traffic-Matrix Forecasting

    Traffic matrices (TMs) capture network-wide origin-destination demand and are central to traffic engineering, yet accurate whole-matrix forecasting remains challenging when prediction must be performed under the memory, update, and training-budget constraints of online network control. This paper investigates whether compact quantum-inspired recurrent models can provide effe...

  • Industry-ready spin-photon interfaces for hybrid photonic quantum computing

    Hybrid photonic quantum computers, combining stationary matter qubits and flying photonic qubits, offer an intrinsically networked and resource-efficient route to large-scale, error-corrected quantum computation. Their core components are cavity-coupled matter qubits that act as light--matter interfaces, enabling: high-efficiency on-demand single-photon generation, stable ne...

  • Fault tolerant computation of the static structure factor and finite size effects

    Fault-tolerant quantum algorithms offer a promising pathway for estimating the ground-state energies of periodic materials that are beyond the practical reach of classical electronic-structure methods. A remaining challenge is finite-size mitigation: quantum algorithms evaluate a finite supercell or finite Brillouin-zone mesh, while materials properties are defined in the th...

  • On the generic structures of the protocols for quantum auction and quantum summation and their relation

    Secure multi-party computation (SMC) addresses the problem of jointly computing global functions of private inputs while revealing minimal information about individual data. Two prominent examples of SMC tasks are sealed-bid auction and secure multi-party summation. Existing schemes for quantum auction and quantum summation have largely been developed independently, motivate...

Control and Quantum-AI Integration

  • Parameter-Efficient Continuous-Variable Photonic Quantum Neural Networks for Edge Quantum AI: Demonstration in Oral Cancer Detection

    Early detection of oral cancer markedly improves clinical outcomes, yet specialized diagnostic tools remain scarce in low-resource settings. Smartphone-based screening is a scalable alternative but needs lightweight models that run within edge-hardware constraints. Hybrid classical-quantum architectures are emerging candidates for parameter-efficient learning, yet most rely...

  • Qudit extension of parameterized IQP circuits: A generative quantum machine learning approach to integer data

    Parameterized Instantaneous Quantum Polynomial (IQP) circuits have proven useful in quantum generative learning models, particularly for binary distributions. However, when applied to non-binary datasets, they exhibit notable limitations: mapping integer values into qubit-compatible binary representations often destroys the original metric structure of the data. In this pape...

  • Hybrid Quantum-Classical Neural Networks for Recognizing Quantum Phases

    Identifying quantum phases of matter is key to understanding strongly correlated materials, but remains a challenging task for both conventional computers and current quantum processors. Here, we introduce and implement a hybrid quantum-classical neural network for quantum phase recognition by combining a hardware-efficient parameterized quantum circuit and a feedforward neu...

  • Hybrid quantum-classical neural network for sample-efficient recognition of topological phases

    With increasing maturity of quantum computers, standard methods for characterizing global properties of their output quantum states via direct measurements and classical post-processing are becoming increasingly impractical due to large measurement costs. Although quantum neural networks could directly process quantum states to identify underlying characteristics with reduce...

  • A Reproducible Pipeline for Symmetry-Respecting Excited States on Near-Term Quantum Computers: The H2O/STO-3G Case

    Variational excited-state quantum algorithms fail for reasons usually studied in isolation: barren plateaus, symmetry contamination, finite-sampling instability, and hardware cost. Using one small but complete system -- H$_2$O in the STO-3G basis (12 qubits, Jordan--Wigner) -- we assemble these into a single reproducible pipeline, checking every claim against exact diagonali...

  • Squeezing enhanced homodyne weak force sensing in cavity optomechanics

    Cavity optomechanical systems have emerged as a promising platform for quantum sensing. Quantum mechanics imposes a standard quantum limit (SQL) on the force-sensitivity for the standard homodyne phase quadrature measurement of the cavity's output field. In this paper, we investigate ways to enhance sensitivity beyond SQL for weak-force measurement by adopting a variational...

  • Non-equilibrium quantum thermometry with bosonic samples

    We study low-temperature non-equilibrium quantum thermometry with a bosonic probe: a quantum harmonic oscillator strongly coupled to a bosonic bath at temperature $T$ through a Drude--Ohmic spectral density. We treat the probe--bath dynamics both exactly, using the quadratic solution of Boyanovsky and Jasnow, and within a renormalized Gorini--Kossakowski--Lindblad--Sudarshan...

  • Quantum Dynamic Time Warping for Multivariate Time Series Classification

    Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) is a cornerstone for time series classification, but its reliance on Euclidean distances fails to capture latent cross-channel correlations in complex multivariate data. We propose a hybrid Quantum Dynamic Time Warping (qDTW) architecture, replacing the classical distance metric with the parameterized geometry of a quantum Hilbert space. Through st...

    We present a method for simulating operator dynamics in out-of-equilibrium quantum systems. Due to the rapid growth of complexity in these systems, this is typically speaking an intractable task. However, exceptional progress has been made in recent years to sidestep this barrier, with the introduction of a number of methods that make use of a truncation of the simulation to...

  • Composing Quantum Instruments

    We study the composition of classically-controlled quantum instruments--the natural quantum analogue of Markov kernels. Classically, Markov kernels compose by integrating one kernel against another. Defining this composition for quantum instruments with continuous outcomes requires an integral of quantum channel-valued functions with respect to a quantum instrument. We const...

    Quantum estimation theory provides ultimate precision bounds on parameter estimation, independent of experimental setups. In this article, we apply this theoretical framework to neutrino oscillations, aiming to clarify some subtle issues and reveal the maximum achievable precision of oscillation parameters. First, taking the example of two-flavor oscillations, we clarify how...

The obtained results a...

These results establish a practical platform for planar Penning traps and identify key next...

  • Static features from mixing in short- and long-range Lindbladians: Markov property and correlations

    The classification of mixed-state phases requires criteria beyond two-point correlation functions, such as the decay of the mutual information (MI) and the conditional mutual information (CMI), with the latter encapsulated in the notion of Markov length. Here we show how such static properties of the fixed point of a Lindbladian follow from natural dynamical features of its...

  • Quantum Correlations in the Decay of $B^0$ meson and Entanglement Entropy

    We present a phenomenological study of quantum correlations in the decay of $B^0$ mesons into a system of two vector mesons. The decay of the $B^0$ meson into two vector mesons constitutes a bipartite system of two qutrits. The entanglement entropy is used as a measure of quantum correlations in the system of decaying particles. We study the variation of the Rényi entropy wi...

  • End-to-End Learning of Quantum Control on Latent Dynamical Manifold

    Traditional quantum control relies on an iterative "simulate-then-optimize" paradigm, where dynamics simulation and control design are decoupled, leading to substantial computational overhead and limited scalability, particularly in noisy environments. Here, we propose an end-to-end quantum control framework based on long short-term memory, in which system dynamics and contr...

  • Standard-quantum-limit-surpassing vector polarimetry using Rydberg atoms in an SU(1,1) interferometer

    Vector polarimetry is an important application frontier for Rydberg-atom-based sensing. While prior research has largely concentrated on developing novel measurement schemes, high-sensitivity vector polarimetry remains an open question. Here we propose a theoretical framework for high-sensitivity detection of radio-frequency (RF) electric field polarization direction, which...

  • Quantum enhancement of information-mediated energy transfer

    Thermodynamics of information identifies information flow as a thermodynamic resource, but whether quantum coherence and collective coupling can enhance it at low entropy-production cost remains unresolved. We address this question for interacting open quantum systems by deriving a thermodynamic uncertainty relation that bounds information flow by entropy production in noneq...

Here, we aim to review recent advancements in...

  • Factorization through Lorentz cones

    A pair of proper cones $(\mathsf{C}_1,\mathsf{C}_2)$ is said to have the Lorentz factorization property (LFP) if every $(\mathsf{C}_1,\mathsf{C}_2)$-positive map factors through a direct sum of Lorentzian cones, i.e., cones over Euclidean balls. Clearly, $(\mathsf{C}_1,\mathsf{C}_2)$ has the LFP if either $\mathsf{C}_1$ or $\mathsf{C}_2$ is a direct sum of Lorentzian cones,...

    Afshar's double-slit experiment probes wave--particle complementarity by placing a wire grid at the dark fringes of a downstream interference pattern while retaining an imaging basis that appears to preserve which-path information. Here we propose and analyze a time-reversed Young--Afshar configuration in which the corresponding null test is transferred from the downstream f...

  • Single-sideband-interference twin-field quantum key distribution without global phase locking

    Twin-field quantum key distribution (TF QKD) can overcome the fundamental rate loss limit of repeaterless quantum links, but its practical deployment has long been hindered by the requirement of global phase locking between two independent lasers. By revisiting the fundamental principles of optical interference, this work reveals that interference in TF QKD inherently relies...

    Modern quantum physics now enables control of quantum systems at the level of individual trajectories, opening a new frontier that links quantum information theory, quantum many-body physics, and quantum thermodynamics, and uncovers novel non-equilibrium phenomena such as deep thermalization and measurement-induced entanglement. However, a central challenge remains: their ch...

    We prove explicit upper bounds on the propagation velocity of one-dimensional quantum walks with periodic coins of arbitrary period. We treat two complementary settings. First, in a perturbative regime where one transmission parameter is small, we show that the corresponding almost reflecting coin acts as a bottleneck for transport: the velocity is bounded linearly in this p...

  • Memory and thermal amplification in spin--cavity squared commutators

    Squared commutators in the Holstein--Primakoff limit of a spin--cavity system provide a compact way to separate propagation from covariance growth in a finite-temperature reservoir with memory. In the finite-temperature NMQSD construction, the linear quadrature commutator is fixed by the retarded spin--cavity propagator, whereas a quadratic commutator carries the same retard...

  • Scalable Acceleration of Many-Body Quantum Dynamics via Time-Rescaling

    Fast quantum control is essential to overcome decoherence in contemporary quantum platforms, yet achieving this in many-body systems remains a major challenge. We show that the time-rescaling (TR) method enables efficient acceleration of closed many-body quantum dynamics, extending its applicability beyond previously studied regimes. Applying TR to the transverse-field Ising...
