We analyze the finite size corrections to entanglement in quantum critical systems. By using conformal symmetry and density functional theory, we discuss the structure of the finite size contributions to a general measure of ground state…

Semiconstrained systems were recently suggested as a generalization of constrained systems, commonly used in communication and data-storage applications that require certain offending subsequences be avoided. In an attempt to apply…

A construction is given for simulating any deterministic finite state machine (FSM) on a quantum computer in a space-efficient manner. By constructing a superposition of input strings of lengths K or less, questions can be asked about the…

For chaotic quantum dynamics modeled by random unitary circuits, we study the complexity of reduced density matrices of subsystems as a function of evolution time where the initial global state is a product pure state. The state complexity…

In a recent work (arXiv:2207.01954), we showed that a uniformly coupled chain could be symmetrically extended by engineered spin chains in such a way that we could choose part of the spectrum of the overall system. When combined with an…

Metastability is a spurious mode of operation in digital signals, where an electrical signal fails to settle into a stable state within a specified time, leading to uncertainty and potentially failing downstream hardware. A system that…

This paper is the extended version of On the Complexity of Infinite Advice Strings (ICALP 2018). We investigate a notion of comparison between infinite strings. In a general way, if M is a computation model (e.g. Turing machines) and C a…

The essence of the famed long-range entanglement as revealed in topologically ordered state is the paradoxical coexistence of short-range correlation and nonlocal information that cannot be removed through constant-depth local quantum…

Suppose you receive a sequence of qubits where each qubit is guaranteed to be in one of two pure states, but you do not know what those states are. Your task is to determine the states. This can be viewed as a kind of quantum state learning…

Beyond computer science, quantum complexity theory can potentially revolutionize multiple branches of physics, ranging from quantum many-body systems to quantum field theory. In this paper, we investigate the relationship between the sample…
