Abstract

Identifying the entanglement structure of a many-body quantum state, namely how its constituents partition into unentangled blocks, is a central task in quantum information science, yet conventional tomography scales exponentially with system size. Here we introduce a scalable framework that recognizes large-scale entanglement structures directly from local correlation fingerprints. By choosing a representative local Pauli basis that satisfies a boundary-matching condition p_1 = p_R, the entire chain is read out in a single measurement configuration, keeping the measurement effort independent of system size. In noisy simulations, this single-basis protocol classifies GHZ-, W-, and cluster-type structures among 30 candidate partitions with a mean accuracy exceeding 95% for systems of up to 100 qubits. We further validate the protocol on a superconducting quantum processor, where it reliably classifies block structures for systems of up to 13 qubits before noise- and depth-induced degradation sets in at larger sizes. By mapping these failure modes explicitly, our results delineate the boundary of hardware-level scalability and point to a concrete strategy for characterizing entanglement structure on near-term quantum devices.

Complementary Quantum Correlations Are Universal for Qubits

Extracting total correlations from a quantum system usually requires reconstructing its state, whereas many experiments access only a few measurement settings. A possible shortcut is to add the mutual informations obtained from complementary measurements; in dimensions above two, however, this procedure can count the s...

Dynamical Readout of Measurement Statistics and Emergent Entanglement-Like States in Classical Networks

Can a classical network not only encode a quantum-like state, but also read out its measurement statistics through its own collective dynamics? Here we introduce a network-native readout scheme for a structured classical network whose community modes form an effective two-qubit state space. Network connectivity selects...

Detecting high-dimensional entanglement with simple measurements

The standard benchmark for high-dimensional entanglement is the number of dimensions in which entanglement must be present in order to generate the state. This is called the Schmidt number and its detection is usually based on implementing an appropriate set of local basis measurements. However, as quantum technology b...

Phase-sensitive framed-ribbon representation of single-qubit Pauli measurements in linear cluster states

We provide an explicit geometric classification of single-qubit projective measurements on one-dimensional (1D) linear cluster states (LCS) within a topological framework. By establishing an explicit geometrical correspondence between local measurements and topological surgery operations on an associated link model i.e...

Permutationally Invariant Quantum State Tomography for Fermions

Quantum state tomography provides complete information about a quantum state, but its measurement cost generally grows exponentially with system size. In many-particle quantum simulators, this challenge is further compounded by the limited accessibility of local measurements and controls. Here we develop a tomography p...

The Entanglement Content of Quantum Measurement Bases

Bell-state measurements are essential ingredients in many protocols for quantum information processing, ranging from quantum teleportation and dense coding to entanglement distribution in quantum networks. Their power relies on the fact that they are measurements in an entangled basis of a two-particle system and that...
