Optimal single-copy estimation of quantum state moments: why $\operatorname{Tr}(\rho^3)$ and $\operatorname{Tr}(\rho^4)$ are equally hard

Estimating nonlinear properties of an unknown quantum state with restrictive experimental accessibility is a fundamental problem in quantum learning. We study the sample complexity of estimating the state moments $\operatorname{Tr}(\rho^t)$, allowing arbitrary adaptive single-copy measurements. While purity estimation...

Fermionic quantum error correction is never free

This work shows that the logical space of any non-trivial fermionic error-correcting code contains no pure fermionic Gaussian state, utilizing a fundamental incompatibility between fermionic error correction and Wick's theorem.

On the geometry and typicality of quantum magic

We prove that, for an $n$-qubit system of dimension $d=2^n$, every state satisfying $\operatorname{Tr}(\rho^2)\le 1/(d-a_\ast)$, with $a_\ast=0.458327\cdots$, lies inside the stabilizer polytope and is therefore magic-free. Combining this result with general geometric properties of high-dimensional polytopes, we establ...
