We develop a unified framework for identifying bounds to maximum resonant nonlinear optical susceptibilities, and for "inverse designing" quantum-well structures that can approach such bounds. In special cases (e.g. second-harmonic…

Most states in the Hilbert space are maximally entangled. This fact has proven useful to investigate - among other things - the foundations of statistical mechanics. Unfortunately, most states in the Hilbert space of a quantum many body…

Local random circuits scramble efficiently and accordingly have a range of applications in quantum information and quantum dynamics. With a global $U(1)$ charge however, the scrambling ability is reduced; for example, such random circuits…

We consider the Unambiguous State Discrimination (USD) of two mixed quantum states. We study the rank and the spectrum of the elements of an optimal USD measurement. This naturally leads to a partial fourth reduction theorem. This theorem…

Given a finite set of points $S\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a $k$-set of $S$ is a subset $A \subset S$ of size $k$ which can be strictly separated from $S \setminus A $ by a hyperplane. Similarly, a $k$-facet of a point set $S$ in general position…

We analyze quantum state tomography in scenarios where measurements and states are both constrained. States are assumed to live in a semi-algebraic subset of state space and measurements are supposed to be rank-one POVMs, possibly with…
