Quantum strategies allow players to optimally win some games by performing joint measurements on a shared entangled state, but computing these strategies can be challenging. We present a variational quantum algorithm to compute quantum strategies for nonlocal games by encoding the rules of a nonlocal game into a Hamiltonian. We show how this algorithm can generate a short-depth optimal quantum strategy for a graph coloring game with a quantum advantage. This quantum strategy is then evaluated on fourteen different quantum hardware platforms to demonstrate its utility as a benchmark. Finally, we discuss potential sources of errors that can explain the observed decreased performance of the executed task and derive an expression for the number of samples required to accurately estimate the win rate in the presence of noise.","PeriodicalId":20821,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Science and Technology","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144747177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We present a protocol to certify entanglement between electrons and photons naturally arising from certain coherent cathodoluminescence processes. Using mutually unbiased bases in position and momentum, our method allows robust, state-agnostic entanglement verification and provides a lower bound on the entanglement of formation, enabling quantitative comparisons across platforms. Simulations under experiment-inspired conditions and preliminary experimental data highlight the feasibility of implementing this approach in modern TEM systems with optical specimen access.

A key characteristic of a qubit is its decoherence time, as its duration and controllability are critical for practical applications in quantum technologies. In this work, we investigate the electron spin dephasing time of the negatively charged boron vacancies, centers, in the hBN lattice by considering the dipolar hyperfine as well as spin–phonon interactions. We employ an approximate method based on the Holstein–Primakoff transformation to take into account a large number of nuclear spins and Debye model to consider the effect of lattice phonons. We show that, in the presence of the dipolar hyperfine interactions, Hahn-echo coherence time of the electron spin is approximately at room temperature and under a strong magnetic field. Our results provide a step forward in understanding the defect decoherence in the hBN, which might be used for quantum information applications.","PeriodicalId":20821,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Science and Technology","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144677378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this work, we demonstrate that the entropy production observed in multipartite open quantum systems, undergoing independent dissipations, arises from two sources: the local dynamics governing individual subsystems and the non-local correlations embedded within the system. The contributions of quantum correlations, as genuine quantum effects, to entropy production are identified explicitly. The revelation of the source of entropy production is substantiated by an analysis of its stochastic counterpart, derived from quantum trajectories. Furthermore, we propose an experimentally feasible scheme to isolate the contributions of both classical and quantum correlations to entropy production. The theoretical findings are simulated using an optical setup. Our work establishes a profound connection between thermodynamic and informational quantities, elucidating the source of irreversibility in the non-equilibrium process of multipartite quantum systems and the genuine quantum contribution therein.","PeriodicalId":20821,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Science and Technology","volume":"99 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144677387","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These KDQ distributions can account for non-commutativity, and return the unperturbed average values and variances for a generic interaction-time, and generic local initial states of the quantum system and environment particles. Using this nonequilibrium-physics approach, we certify the conditions under which the collision process of the model exhibits quantum traits, and we quantify the rate of energy exchanged by the quantum system by looking at the variance of the KDQ energy distributions.

The fermionic classical shadow (FCS) method offers an efficient framework for estimating these observables without requiring a transformation into a Pauli basis for k-local Fermionic observables. However, the random matchgate circuits in FCS require linear-depth circuits with a brickwork structure, which presents significant challenges for near-term quantum devices with limited computational resources. To address this limitation, we introduce an adaptive-depth fermionic classical shadow (ADFCS) protocol designed to reduce the circuit depth while maintaining the sample complexity. Through theoretical analysis and numerical fitting, we establish that the required depth for approximating a fermionic observable H is upper bounded by when the locality k is a constant, where dint is the interaction distance of H and n is the number of qubits. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the ADFCS protocol through numerical experiments, which show similar accuracy to the traditional FCS method while requiring significantly fewer quantum resources. Additionally, we apply ADFCS to compute the expectation value of the Kitaev chain Hamiltonian, further validating its performance in practical scenarios. Our findings suggest that ADFCS enables more efficient quantum simulations when the locality k is constant, reducing circuit depth while preserving the sample complexity and offering a viable solution for near-term quantum devices.","PeriodicalId":20821,"journal":{"name":"Quantum Science and Technology","volume":"12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":6.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144669723","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We show that for (nearly) indistinguishable photons, the experiment accurately reproduces the ideal boson sampling binned-mode distributions, which exhibit variations that depend both on the specific interferometer implemented as well as the choice of bin, confirming the usefulness of the method to diagnose imperfections such as partial distinguishability or imperfect chip control. Finally, we analyze the behavior of Haar-averaged binned-mode distributions in relation to indistinguishability and demonstrate analytically that its variance is proportional to the average of the square of the photons’ indistinguishability parameter.

In this work, we directly study the structure of non-Markovian correlated errors and their impact on surface code memory performance. Specifically, we compare surface code performance under non-Markovian noise and independent circuit-level noise, while keeping marginal error rates constant. Our analysis shows that while not all temporally correlated structures are detrimental, certain structures, particularly multi-time ‘streaky’ correlations affecting syndrome qubits and two-qubit gates, can severely degrade logical error rate scaling. Furthermore, we discuss our results in the context of recent QEC experiments on physical devices.
