Non-Gaussian shapes, despite a linear form of the mean-squared displacement, have been observed for the displacement distribution in a large range of diffusive systems. Stochastic models for such "Brownian yet non-Gaussian" diffusion will…
Gaussian states and measurements collectively are not powerful-enough resources for quantum computing, as any Gaussian dynamics can be simulated efficiently, classically. However, it is known that any one non-Gaussian resource -- either a…
