Semi-device independent characterization of multiphoton indistinguishability

Multiphoton indistinguishability is a central resource for quantum enhancement in sensing and computation. Developing and certifying large-scale photonic devices requires reliable and accurate characterization of this resource, preferably using methods that are robust against experimental errors. Here, we propose a set of methods for the characterization of multiphoton indistinguishability, based on measurements of bunching and … Continua a leggere

Variational approach to photonic quantum circuits via the parameter shift rule

In the era of noisy intermediate-scale quantum computers, variational quantum algorithms are promising approaches for solving optimization tasks by training parameterized quantum circuits with the aid of classical routines informed by quantum measurements. In this context, photonic platforms based on reconfigurable integrated optics are an ideal candidate for implementing these algorithms. Among various techniques to … Continua a leggere

Photonic Quantum Convolutional Neural Networks with Adaptive State Injection

Linear optical architectures have been extensively investigated for quantum computing and quantum machine learning applications. Recently, proposals for photonic quantum machine learning have combined linear optics with resource adaptivity, such as adaptive circuit reconfiguration, which promises to enhance expressivity and improve algorithm performances and scalability. Moreover, linear optical platforms preserve some subspaces due to the … Continua a leggere
