PauLie: Fast Classification of Pauli Dynamical Lie Algebras

The dynamical Lie algebra (DLA) governs the controllability, expressibility, and simulation complexity of a quantum system. Explicitly computing it has been a major computational bottleneck: brute-force Lie closure scales exponentially in the number of qubits $n$. Many applications, however, consult only the isomorphism type of the DLA. We introduce PauLie, an open-source framework that decides this isomorphism type for DLAs generated by arbitrary Pauli strings, building on the anticommutation-graph reduction of Aguilar et al. PauLie runs in $O(n|\mathcal{G}|\max(n,|\mathcal{G}|))$ time, where $|\mathcal{G}|$ is the number of generators, turning DLA classification into a routine preprocessing step. We demonstrate its use as a structural oracle for routing Lie-algebraic simulation and Cartan decomposition, diagnosing barren plateaus in variational quantum algorithms, and engineering universal Pauli string generator sets with optimal generation rate.

Quantum-Gravitational Backreaction in the BTZ Background from Curved Momentum Space

We explore how quantum properties of spacetime, specifically the curvature of momentum space, can backreact on classical gravity within a tractable semiclassical (2+1)-dimensional framework with a negative cosmological constant. Motivated by quantum-gravity scenarios, we investigate how Planck-scale modifications of particle kinematics influence both dynamics and gravitational solutions. Starting from a first-order action, we derive an effective configuration-space description and show that particle trajectories remain geodesic, preserving the weak equivalence principle despite the underlying deformation. Coupling this modified matter sector to Einstein gravity, we obtain a deformed BTZ black hole solution. Remarkably, the local geometric structure and thermodynamic relations retain their standard form, while all quantum-gravity effects are encoded in a nonlinear mapping between the microscopic mass parameter and the ADM mass. This induces a renormalization of the horizon radius and thermodynamic quantities without altering their functional dependence. As a concrete observable consequence, we compute corrections to the return time of massless probes traveling along null geodesics between the horizon and the AdS3 boundary. Our results demonstrate that Planck-scale kinematic effects can leave controlled and potentially measurable imprints on classical geometry, providing a clear and consistent bridge between quantum-gravity ideas and semiclassical observables.

Simulating open quantum systems using noise models and NISQ devices with error mitigation

In this work, we present simulations of two Open Quantum System models, Collisional and Markovian Reservoir, with noise simulations, the IBM devices ($\textit{ibm_kyoto}$, $\textit{ibm_osaka}$) and the OQC device Lucy. Extending the results of Garc\'ia-P\'erez, et al. [npj Quantum Information 6.1 (2020): 1]. Using the Mitiq toolkit, we apply Zero-Noise extrapolation (ZNE), an error mitigation technique, and analyze their deviation from the theoretical results for the models under study. For both models, by applying ZNE, we were able to reduce the error and overlap it with the theoretical results. All our simulations and experiments were done in the qBraid environment.
