Reading an optical quantum reservoir costs repetitions growing super-exponentially with feature order: what it can afford is set by its detector, not its optics. For reservoirs encoding data in a parametric pump's phase, one conservation law fixes what is readable and what it costs. Pairwise photon exchange conserves an integer phase charge: across an ensemble of input masks, order-D readout reaches exactly the assemblies of at most D unit-charge kernels; degree-one homodyne readout is universal for fading-memory functionals along weak-squeezing families, at shot cost polynomial in accuracy; and at fixed squeezing no finite degree reaches every sector, at a computable distance. Nonlinearity sits in the optics, not the detector, whose per-shot variance is fixed at every order. In a hardware-faithful digital twin-no device was built-the rule is visible: on an open RF corpus a displacement-encoded control at identical photon number loses 17.7 accuracy points, as the charge algebra predicts.
Universal approximation in reservoir computing is typically associated with a class of reservoirs. We show that universality can be associated with a single reservoir, considering a minimal setup of a single atom in front of a mirror. In its linear-transducer limit, our reservoir is a universal approximator of fading-m...

The framework connects benchmark performance to experimentally actionable diagnoses of reservoir encoding, measurement choice, classical representation, and shot allocation and introduces task-resolved Fisher spectroscopy, in which prediction targets define orthonormal score coordinates on the stationary distribution o...
For an open quantum reservoir, how the system forgets is part of how it computes. Quantum reservoir computing processes input streams with fixed quantum dynamics and trains only a linear readout. Dissipation can make old inputs fade, but prior studies commonly fix the environmental process and tune only its strength. H...

Time-multiplexed (TDM) photonic reservoirs are usually judged by their scores on a few datasets, which say little about a chip's overall performance, and designed by enumerating candidate circuits and simulating each one, which is inefficient and gives no guarantee of finding a good structure. For a time-unrolled passi...

Barren plateaus hinder training of parameterized quantum circuits by making loss gradients exponentially small in the number of qubits. For angle-encoded product states, we show how the input distribution affects output variation through algebraic input purity, i.e. the input's overlap with the circuit's dynamical Lie...

Simulating the showers that particles deposit in a calorimeter, the detector that records their energy across many cells, is one of the largest computing costs in high-energy physics, and fast generative surrogates are needed. Quantum circuits have been proposed as such surrogates, but demonstrations on calorimeter dat...
