Candidate collapse-noise correlators from Generalized Trace Dynamics: a Hubble-scale spectral line under structural assumptions

Abstract

We present a conditional construction of candidate CSL-type collapse-noise correlators inspired by Generalized Trace Dynamics (GTD). The construction is not a parameter-free derivation from the minimal GTD Grassmann algebra. It rests on a chain of explicit structural postulates, listed in Section 1; within that auxiliary structure the spectral form and amplitude follow by computation rather than by phenomenological fitting. The resulting narrow-band spectrum at the Hubble scale lies outside the bands of current CSL bounds, so the framework is not in tension with existing high-frequency data. We compute the two-point function of a candidate collapse-noise operator associated with the GTD aikyon decomposition $q_i = q_B + a_0\beta_i q_F$. In the minimal Grassmann algebra, $q_F$ appears only multiplied by Grassmann generators $\beta_i$, the reduction of $\mathrm{Tr}(q_F^\dagger\Gamma^\mu q_F)$ to ghost-mode operators is obstructed by the nilpotent $\delta\beta = \beta_2 - \beta_1$, and the pure-fermion coefficient $\beta_1\beta_2$ has no ordinary sign, modulus, or inverse. We therefore introduce an auxiliary canonical fermionic Fock-space sector for $q_F$, equivalently replacing the nilpotent pure-fermion coefficient by an ordinary effective scalar body parameter. This replacement is an independent structural postulate, not a consequence of the original minimal action. Under this auxiliary postulate, together with a scalar bilinear $J = \mathrm{Tr}(q_F^\dagger q_F)$ as bath operator, positive-norm canonical quantization, and an effective sign choice $\sigma = \pm1$ for the scalarized pure-fermion sector, elementary Wick contraction gives a Wightman line at $|\omega| = 2\omega_0$ with amplitude $A_J = (\hbar/2m_R\omega_0 L_{\mathrm{aik}}^2)^2\cdot N\cdot D$. The cosmological identification $\omega_0 \sim H_0$ places the line at twice the Hubble scale. [truncated]

Probing the Error-Mitigation Threshold with Matrix Product States

Quantum error mitigation relies on accurate noise characterization, but mismatches between the actual and characterized noise can be amplified and drive a sharp threshold between successful and failed mitigation. In random circuits, this threshold maps onto a random-field Ising transition, but previous exact numerics were limited to small one-dimensional and all-to-all systems, leaving explicit two-dimensional architectures unresolved. We develop a fixed-bond-dimension matrix-product-state method for the replicated transfer dynamics that extends threshold calculations beyond exact propagation while retaining the finite-size signatures of the transition. At system sizes beyond previous exact studies, we recover the predicted absence of a threshold for quenched disorder in 1D, obtain a sharper annealed all-to-all critical point, and resolve architecture-dependent finite-depth thresholds in 2D square and heavy-hex circuits. These results establish replicated tensor-network dynamics as a practical tool for probing error-mitigation thresholds in large and higher-dimensional noisy circuits.

Low-cost algorithm-to-execution framework for surface-code quantum computing

The execution of useful quantum algorithms on fault-tolerant processors requires more than a mapping from logical gates to encoded operations: the spatial organization, non-Clifford resource supply, and execution schedule must also be determined while keeping physical overhead within practical limits. Although the theoretical hierarchy from logical circuits to fault-tolerant operations is well established, these implementation choices are often specified and optimized separately. Here we develop a low-cost algorithm-to-execution framework for surface-code quantum computing. From hierarchical algorithm descriptions, it constructs dependency-preserving logical schedules and an executable workload capturing logical interactions, operation parallelism, and time-resolved non-Clifford demand, thereby linking logical computation to surface-code organization, resource-state preparation, and fault-tolerant execution in a traceable workflow. We apply the framework to twenty benchmark circuits across seven algorithm families and a hierarchically composed application-scale elliptic-curve discrete-logarithm workload. Physical costs vary substantially even for circuits with similar logical resource counts. Under our direct-rotation calibration, non-Clifford implementation selection reduces space-time volume by up to 241.5 times versus an all-synthesis baseline for the QAOA amplitude-amplification workload. Circuit-specific surface-code layouts reduce routed-latency estimates for all twenty benchmarks; thirteen also reduce space-time volume because communication savings outweigh added spatial overhead. These results show that low-cost fault-tolerant execution depends on computation scheduling and organization, not aggregate logical resource counts alone.

Sample-optimal learning of stabilizer states

It is well-known that learning a pure $n$-qubit stabilizer state $|\psi\rangle$ both requires, and can be accomplished with, access to a number of copies of $|\psi\rangle$ linear in $n$. However, the precise constant coefficient of this scaling does not appear to have been determined. Here we prove that $L_\delta(n)$, the smallest number of copies from which a quantum procedure can identify any stabilizer state with failure probability at most $0<\delta<1/8$, satisfies $n+\lceil\log_2(1/\delta)\rceil-3\leq L_\delta(n)\leq n+\left\lceil\log_2(1/\delta)\right\rceil+4$. We present a polynomial-time quantum learning algorithm that saturates this bound, achieving a constant factor improvement in sample-complexity over previously known approaches. As an immediate corollary, we obtain via the Choi-Jamiolkowski isomorphism an algorithm for learning an unknown $n$-qubit Clifford unitary from $2n+\left\lceil\log_2(1/\delta)\right\rceil+4$ queries, the $n$-dependence of which we show to be optimal. Our proof technique, which involves Fourier analysis on the abelian group $\mathbb{Z}_4^n \times \mathbb{F}_2^{n(n-1)/2}$, seems to be qualitatively different to previous approaches to stabilizer state learning, and may be of some independent interest; in particular, it admits natural generalisations to further problems in quantum learning theory.
