Suppose that two distant parties Alice and Bob share an entangled state $\rho_{AB}$, and they want to exchange the subsystems of $\rho_{AB}$ by local operations and classical communication (LOCC). In general, this LOCC task (i.e. the LOCC…

Near-term quantum computers often have connectivity constraints, i.e. restrictions, on which pairs of qubits in the device can interact. Optimally mapping a quantum circuit to a hardware topology under these constraints is a difficult task.…
In this paper we present the following quantum compression protocol: P : Let $\rho,\sigma$ be quantum states such that $S(\rho || \sigma) = \text{Tr} (\rho \log \rho - \rho \log \sigma)$, the relative entropy between $\rho$ and $\sigma$, is…
Masking of quantum information is a way of hiding information in correlations such that no information is accessible to any local observer. Although the set of all quantum states as a whole cannot be masked into bipartite correlations…

A classical computer simulating Schrodinger dynamics of a quantum system requires resources which scale exponentially with the size of the system, and is regarded as inefficient for such purposes. However, a quantum computer made up of a…
