We show an improved inverse theorem for the Gowers-$3$ norm of $n$-qubit quantum states $|\psi\rangle$ which states that: for every $\gamma\geq 0$, if the $\textsf{Gowers}(|\psi \rangle,3)^8 \geq \gamma$ then the stabilizer fidelity of…

We give a pair of algorithms that efficiently learn a quantum state prepared by Clifford gates and $O(\log n)$ non-Clifford gates. Specifically, for an $n$-qubit state $|\psi\rangle$ prepared with at most $t$ non-Clifford gates, our…

We present a novel classical algorithm designed to learn the stabilizer group -- namely the group of Pauli strings for which a state is a $\pm 1$ eigenvector -- of a given Matrix Product State (MPS). The algorithm is based on a clever and…

We consider the problem of testing whether an unknown $n$-qubit quantum state $|\psi\rangle$ is a stabilizer state, with only single-copy access. We give an algorithm solving this problem using $O(n)$ copies, and conversely prove that…

We study the task of agnostic tomography: given copies of an unknown $n$-qubit state $\rho$ which has fidelity $\tau$ with some state in a given class $C$, find a state which has fidelity $\ge \tau - \epsilon$ with $\rho$. We give a new…

The stabilizer rank of a quantum state $\psi$ is the minimal $r$ such that $\left| \psi \right \rangle = \sum_{j=1}^r c_j \left|\varphi_j \right\rangle$ for $c_j \in \mathbb{C}$ and stabilizer states $\varphi_j$. The running time of several…

We study single-copy stabilizer learning, the problem of identifying a stabilizer group of dimension $n-t$ from an $n$-qubit quantum state $\rho$. We obtain two complementary results. First, in the average case, logarithmic-depth local…
