Notions of nonstabilizerness, or "magic", quantify how non-classical quantum states are in a precise sense: states exhibiting low nonstabilizerness preclude quantum advantage. We introduce 'pseudomagic' ensembles of quantum states that,…

Weakly interacting quasiparticles play a central role in the low-energy description of many phases of quantum matter. At higher energies, however, quasiparticles cease to be well-defined in generic many-body systems due to a proliferation…
The quasiprobability representation of quantum states addresses two main concerns, the identification of nonclassical features and the decomposition of the density operator. While the former aspect is a main focus of current research, the…

Quasicrystals are aperiodically ordered solids that exhibit long-range order without translational periodicity, bridging the gap between crystalline and amorphous materials. Due to their lack of translational periodicity, information on…
