We propose a quantum algorithm for the purification of a generic mixed state $\rho$ of a $n$-qudit system by using an ancillary $n$-qudit system. The algorithm is optimal in that (i) the number of ancillary qudits cannot be reduced, (ii)…

Classical shadow tomography offers a scalable route to estimating properties of quantum states, but the resulting reduced density matrices (RDMs) often violate constraints that ensure they represent $N$-electron states -- known as…

Understanding the structure of multi-qubit quantum states is essential for both quantum information research and education, yet intuitive visualization beyond the single-qubit Bloch sphere remains challenging. In this work, we propose a…

The goal of qubit purification is to combine multiple noisy copies of an unknown pure quantum state to obtain one or more copies that are closer to the pure state. We show that a simple protocol based solely on random SWAP tests achieves…
