Abstract

The familiar Bethe-Heitler process on the proton target $e+p\to e+p+\gamma$ is transformed into a laboratory for studying multiparticle entanglement. We discuss how bipartite and genuine tripartite entanglement between the final state electron, proton and photon are built up by successive $1\to 2$ and $2\to 2$ elementary interactions. We validate our argument by simulating events. Below 5 GeV center-of-mass energy, we identify more than 900 Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) states and 1200 W states, each with a fidelty exceeding 99%.

The Quantum KKL Inequality

In this paper, we resolve the quantum KKL conjecture of Montanaro and Osborne \cite{MO2010} for quantum Boolean functions on the $n$-qubit hypercube. More precisely, for every self-adjoint unitary $T$, we bound the largest $L_2$-influence from below by a constant multiple of $\mathrm{Var}(T)\log(n)/n$. The proof heavil...

Unitary equivalence of Schr\"odinger and Heisenberg pictures survives in nonlinear quantum mechanics

The equivalence of Schr\"odinger and Heisenberg pictures is often thought to break down in nonlinear quantum mechanics due to the absence of a state-independent unitary propagator. We show that for Hamiltonians depending on the state through instantaneous expectation values, the equivalence is preserved. While the unit...

Exact quantum circuits for a Heisenberg triangle with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction

We construct exact quantum circuits for a three-spin Heisenberg triangle with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya (DM) interaction. A change of basis reduces pure DM evolution with arbitrary couplings to two single-qubit rotations, giving a circuit with at most 8 CNOT gates. When $J$ and $D$ are each the same on all bonds, one fixed...

Entanglement-Inducing Quantum Markov Processes

We introduce a new model for a system of interacting bosons placed in an array of sites. At its core is a nonlinear, nonlocal evolution equation, which we have dubbed the Schr\"odinger-Dirichlet equation. The construction is closely related to the Bose-Hubbard model and to a specific type of generalized bosons. In cont...

Logarithmic-depth quantum simulation of boson sampling

The key idea is to enlarge the optical system, decompose the resulting transformation into six quadratic shears, and distribute each mode over many submodes, which permits a fixed local occupation cutoff, after which local basis changes and parallel phase gates give the qubit circuit.

Quantum tomography at the Electron-Ion Collider

We initiate the study of quantum state tomography---the experimental reconstruction of the complete spin density matrix---of massless and massive quark-antiquark pairs produced at the future Electron-Ion Collider (EIC). We show that all components of the spin density matrix can be accessed through azimuthal angular cor...
