The property of non-stabiliserness, or ``magic'', is of interest in quantum computing due to its role in developing fault-tolerant quantum algorithms with genuine computational advantage over classical counterparts. There has been much…

Entanglement appears under two different forms in quantum theory, namely as a property of states of joint systems and as a property of measurement eigenstates in joint measurements. By combining these two aspects of entanglement, it is…

Magic states are the resource that allows quantum computers to attain an advantage over classical computers. This resource consists in the deviation from a property called stabilizerness which in turn implies that stabilizer circuits can be…
