Thank you very much for your comment.

I'm sorry not to know the result.
However, it seems to us that the old proof does not work well,
or too ambiguous

In p.98, ' $\alpha |0\rangle|\psi_0\rangle+\beta|1\rangle|\psi_1\rangle$' is used,
but to apply Aaronson's technique, what we need is

The main result of this paper has already been shown previously in [Salman Beigi's PhD thesis (2009)][1] (Appendix B, Theorem B.0.5, p.98).

The group that we call "R(2)" in the paper, the "Realizable Group" is indeed generated by the physical unitaries in the left side of the table on page 2. This group, as a unitary matrix group, has 4,608 elements. However, the action on just the logical space is smaller, and there is a 4-to-1 homomor

Thank you for this timely work explaining standard tests run on the IBM machine!

Could you clarify what you refer to as the Realizable Group in the paper? Is it generated by the gates in the "Logical Equivalent" column in the table on page 2? This seems to correlate well with the statements in t

That's correct. Thanks for spotting it ! The correct relation should be (1/|sigma_q|)sum_sigma = (1/(d-1))(dF-1). Another typo shows up in eq 41 which has essentially the same resolution. We'll correct this on the next update.

Soumya Mukherjee Jun 19 2018 12:50 UTC

This is really a great work.. should be implemented with all the required resources.

Nice work~ Is there any typo on the formula (33)? It seems not consistent with former average fidelity formula...

This is not a direct answer to your question, but may give some intuition to formulate the problem in a more precise language. (And I simplify the discussion drastically). Consider a static slice of an empty AdS space (just a hyperbolic space) and imagine an operator which creates a particle at some

Abhinav Deshpande Feb 10 2018 15:42 UTC

I see. Yes, the epsilon ball issue seems to be a thorny one in the prevalent definition, since the gate complexity to reach a target state from any of a fixed set of initial states depends on epsilon, and not in a very nice way (I imagine that it's all riddled with discontinuities). It would be inte

Elizabeth Crosson Feb 10 2018 05:49 UTC

Thanks for the correction Abhinav, indeed I meant that the complexity of |psi(t)> grows linearly with t.

Producing an arbitrary state |phi> exactly is also too demanding for the circuit model, by the well-known argument that given any finite set of gates, the set of states that can be reached i

Abhinav Deshpande Feb 09 2018 20:21 UTC

Elizabeth, interesting comment! Did you mean to say that the complexity of $U(t)$ increases linearly with $t$ as opposed to exponentially?

Also, I'm confused about your definition. First, let us assume that the initial state is well defined and is $|\psi(0)\rangle $.
If you define the complexit

Elizabeth Crosson Feb 08 2018 04:27 UTC

The complexity of a state depends on the dynamics that one is allowed to use to generate the state. If we restrict the dynamics to be "evolving according a specific Hamiltonian H" then we immediately have that the complexity of U(t) = exp(i H t) grows exponentially with t, up until recurrences that

This paper considers the problem of using "lifted" Markov chains to simulate the mixing of coined quantum walks. The Markov chain has to approximately (in the total variational distance) sample from the distribution obtained by running the quantum walk for a randomly chosen time $t \in [0,T]$ follow

Great work! One thing that might potentially confuse readers is the use of "PPT channel" to indicate that the partial action of the channel produces a PPT state. There might be some ambiguity in literature, but many call "PPT channels" those channels that act jointly on two parties, and that preserv

Very nice work, congratulations! I just want to point out that the "index of separability" had already been defined in arXiv:1411.2517, where it was called "entanglement-breaking index" and studied in some detail.

Eq. (14) defines the sum negativity as $\sum_u |W_u| - 1$, but there should be an overall factor of $1/2$ (see arXiv:1307.7171, definition 10). For both the Strange states and the Norrell states, the sum negativity should be $1/3$: The Strange states (a.

It splits into even and odd cases, actually. I was originally sloppy about the distinction between integer and polynomial division, but it's fixed now. There is a little room left in the case $d=3$ now though, but it's still proven in every other dimension.
