Abstract

Recent years have seen a surge of interest in adapting non-classical states to search for physics beyond the Standard Model, including both qubit- and boson-based systems. These two classes of systems are closely related through the Holstein--Primakoff transformation (HPT). In this work, we show that the HPT offers novel insights into inherently quantum-mechanical detection of new physics. We begin by discussing how the HPT can be used to unify certain existing qubit- and boson-based proposals in a single framework. We then show how it naturally reveals a novel generalization of GHZ states which offer superior performance for the detection of rare interactions. We demonstrate that these novel states can be readily prepared, and combine the coherent advantage of GHZ states with superior error rejection. Finally, we show that the HPT also reveals a natural extension of the Hamiltonian-Not-in-Lindblad-Span theorem for collections of bosonic modes.

Generation of entanglement and magic via continuous homodyne monitoring of a qubit pair

Continuous weak measurements of quantum systems are of great relevance in quantum foundations and applications. They can be achieved by probing the quantum system of interest by repeatedly measuring an auxiliary system weakly coupled to it. Here we study two qubits coupled in different points to a common one-dimensiona...

CO$\Phi$ - COmpiling PHotonics into dIgital quantum circuits

Photonic and qubit-based (digital) approaches to quantum computing are largely regarded as separate paradigms. This article aims to bridge these paradigms by developing a method for mapping quantum-optical systems onto qubit-based quantum circuits. The key ingredient enabling this mapping is the introduction of a trunc...

Theory of post-selected entanglement transitions in monitored bosons

Entanglement phase transitions driven by quantum measurements have emerged as a central paradigm in open quantum many-body physics. Such phase transitions are well established for systems with finite local Hilbert-space dimensions, such as qubits and fermions, while their realization in bosonic systems with unbounded l...

Experimental characterization of the qubit-mediated coupling between two waveguides

We report the first experimental realization and comprehensive characterization of a system consisting of two spatially separated superconducting waveguides coupled via a single transmon qubit. Since this system enables coherent control and the exchange of microwave photons between waveguides, and also holds the potent...
