We associate to every quantum channel $T$ acting on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ a pair of Hamiltonian operators over the symmetric subspace of $\mathcal{H}^{\otimes 2}$. The expectation values of these Hamiltonians over symmetric product…

We study channel fidelity for the high-fidelity approach in the Knill-Laflamme-Milburn (KLM) scheme. We examine an optimal channel fidelity $f_{opt}$ and identify the corresponding KLM ancilla state. In the limit of large $n$, where $2n$ is…
