Validity condition for high-fidelity Digitized Quantum Annealing
10 pages and 4 figuresDigitizing an adiabatic evolution is a strategy able to combine the good
performance of gate-based quantum processors with the advantages of adiabatic
algorithms, providing then a hybrid model for efficient quantum information
processing. In this work we develop validity conditions for high fidelity
digital adiabatic tasks. To this end, we assume a digitizing process based on
the Suzuki-Trotter decomposition, which allows us to introduce a Digitized
Adiabatic Theorem. As consequence of this theorem, we show that the performance
of such a hybrid model is limited by the fundamental constraints on the
adiabatic theorem validity, even in ideal quantum processors. We argue how our
approach predicts the existence of intrinsic non-adiabatic errors reported by
R. Barends et al., Nature 534, 222 (2016) through an empirical study of digital
annealing. In addition, our approach allows us to explain the existence of a
scaling of the number of Suzuki-Trotter blocks for the optimal digital circuit
with respect to the optimal adiabatic total evolution time, as reported by G.
B. Mbeng et al., Phys. Rev. B 100, 224201 (2019) through robust numerical
analysis of digital annealing. We illustrate our results through two examples
of digitized adiabatic algorithms, namely, the two-qubits exact-cover problem
and the three-qubits adiabatic factorization of the number 21.The author is supported by the Comunidad de Madrid through the research funding program Talento 2024“César’ Nombela” under the Grant No. 2024-T1/COM-31530.

Quantum steering ellipsoids and quantum obesity in critical systems
Quantum obesity (QO) is new function used to quantify quantum correlations
beyond entanglement, which also works as a witness for entanglement. Thanks to
its analyticity for arbitrary state of bipartite systems, it represents an
advantage with respect to other quantum correlations, like quantum discord for
example. In this work we show that QO is a fundamental quantity to observe
signature of quantum phase transitions. We also describe a mechanism based on
local filtering operations able to intensify the critical behavior of the QO
near to the transition point. To this end, we introduce a theorem stating how
QO changes under local quantum operations and classical communications. This
work opens perspective for the characterization of new phenomena in quantum
critical systems through the analytically computable pairwise QO.Comment: 8 pages and 3 figures. Comments are welcom
