Quantum state tomography--the practice of estimating a quantum state by performing measurements on it--is useful in a variety of contexts. We introduce "gentle tomography" as a version of tomography that preserves the measured quantum data.…

Rapidly increasing data sizes in scientific computing are the driving force behind the need for lossy compression. The main drawback of lossy data compression is the introduction of error. This paper explains why many error-bounded…

We re-examine a non-Gaussian quantum error correction code designed to protect optical coherent-state qubits against errors due to an amplitude damping channel. We improve on a previous result [Phys. Rev. A 81, 062344 (2010)] by providing a…

In this work, we consider the fundamental task of quantum state certification: given copies of an unknown quantum state $\rho$, test whether it matches some target state $\sigma$ or is $\epsilon$-far from it. For certifying $d$-dimensional…
