arXiv:2611.04568v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the entanglement dynamics of two qutrits under collective dephasing for a family of states obtained by mixing a maximally entangled state that lives in the decoherence-free subspace with three nonstationary two-term states sharing a common amplitude ratio $r$.

arXiv:2611.04553v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We investigate the emission profiles of singly excited collective states and propose a matched-mode witnessing protocol in a mirror-terminated waveguide quantum electrodynamics system. The amplitudes and relative phases of the initial collective excitation are encoded in the temporal mode of the emitted single-photon wavepacket, providing a route to state verification…

arXiv:2611.04539v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We prove the security of phase-encoded decoy-state BB84 quantum key distribution for a Mach-Zehnder receiver with imbalanced beam splitters and two threshold detectors that leak fine-grained information about the detection patterns.

arXiv:2611.04512v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider a massive object, such as a neutral atom or an Unruh-DeWitt detector, moving at constant speed in a quantum field and investigate how motion affects the quantum coherence of its internal degrees of freedom, manifesting as quantum dispersion in the absence of a quantum field, and decoherence in its presence.

arXiv:2611.04496v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sample-based quantum diagonalization (SQD) accuracy remains limited for strongly correlated systems like iron-sulfur clusters. This accuracy heavily depends on the mean-field reference state, which determines the sampling ansatz and configuration-recovery target.

arXiv:2611.04442v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce the Pauli-Correlator Autoencoder (PCAE), a hybrid quantum--classical architecture for image reconstruction. PCAE splits an image into patches and compresses each patch as a matrix product state (MPS).

arXiv:2611.04432v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Advances in free-electron quantum optics are establishing free electrons as a versatile quantum resource. Photon-induced near-field electron microscopy (PINEM) interactions and free drift provide elementary operations for shaping the longitudinal electron wavefunction, yet their full control capabilities remain unexplored.

arXiv:2611.04431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantum amplitude estimation can estimate expected discounted payoffs with quadratically fewer oracle calls than Monte Carlo, but each call requires coherent computation. We use language-model-assisted circuit design to reduce reversible payoff arithmetic for a three-asset worst-of autocallable and a target accrual redemption forward (TARF).

arXiv:2611.04306v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: How can noncommuting quantum observables retain the geometry of a classical phase space? Motivated by Mumford's question on approximately macroscopically unique (AMU) states and the work of Lin and Wang, we study synthetic spectra of position--momentum and angular-momentum systems. Under the hypotheses of their AMU theorems, nonempty synthetic spectra yield AMU states.

As in classical shared-memory concurrency, parallel quantum circuits may interfere with one another through operations on shared qubits.

arXiv:2611.04198v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study deep variational circuits for a periodic Heisenberg chain under local gate depolarization, at depths where noiseless training is coherently exact. Full-width initializations reach low coherent error faster than circuits with confined transverse generators, but incur a larger noise shift and need an order of magnitude more updates for noisy convergence.

arXiv:2611.04105v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study single-query perfect anti-distinguishability/exclusion tasks of finite quantum channel ensembles, primarily using associated Choi operators and process POVMs. Weak perfect anti-distinguishability requires each measurement outcome to exclude an ensemble candidate with certainty, whereas the strong form additionally requires every candidate to have an exclusion…

arXiv:2611.04009v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: It was conjectured by Wehrl and proven by Lieb that the Shannon differential entropy of the Husimi function of a continuous-variable quantum state is lower bounded by the value it takes on coherent states. This corroborates the intuition, familiar from Heisenberg's uncertainty relations, that coherent states are minimal uncertainty states.
