We study the complexity of learning quantum states in various models with respect to the stabilizer formalism and obtain the following results: - We prove that $\Omega(n)$ $T$-gates are necessary for any Clifford+$T$ circuit to prepare…

Composite quantum states can be classified by how they behave under local unitary transformations. Each quantum state has a stabilizer subgroup and a corresponding Lie algebra, the structure of which is a local unitary invariant. In this…

We investigate the action of the first three levels of the Clifford hierarchy on sets of mutually unbiased bases comprising the Ivanovic MUB and the Alltop MUBs. Vectors in the Alltop MUBs exhibit additional symmetries when the dimension is…

Characterizing quantum magic -- the resource enabling computational advantage beyond stabilizer circuits -- is subtle in qubit systems because established measures can give conflicting information about the same state. We introduce C(rho),…

The Clifford hierarchy is a nested sequence of sets of quantum gates critical to achieving fault-tolerant quantum computation. Diagonal gates of the Clifford hierarchy and 'nearly diagonal' semi-Clifford gates are particularly important:…

The classification of stabilizer states under local Clifford (LC) equivalence is of particular importance in quantum error-correction and measurement-based quantum computation. Two stabilizer states are called LC equivalent if there exists…

We investigate non-stabilizerness, also known as ``magic,'' to understand criticality and exceptional points in non-Hermitian quantum many-body systems. Our focus is on parity-time ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetric spin chains, specifically the…

Magic state distillation is an important primitive in fault-tolerant quantum computation. The magic states are pure non-stabilizer states which can be distilled from certain mixed non-stabilizer states via Clifford group operations alone.…

We introduce the notion of dismagicker: non-Clifford unitary gate designed to reduce the non-stabilizerness (also called magic) of quantum many-body states. Although both entanglement and non-stabilizerness are fundamental quantum…
