Abstract

In this work, we study asymmetric $(1\to2)$ quantum cloning for pure states belonging to orbits generated by the orthogonal group. For every dimension $(d\geq3)$, we determine the full region of achievable pairs of average single-copy fidelities. Using orthogonal covariance and the Brauer algebra, we reduce the optimization over all CPTP maps to a finite-dimensional spectral problem and construct explicit optimal cloning channels. We then apply the general results to four-mode fermionic states in the even-parity sector. Using triality, we identify the fixed-concurrence fermionic families with the orthogonal orbits considered in the first part of the paper. In particular, for pure Gaussian states we show that the symmetric locally optimal cloner is unique. We also compare local and global cloning and find that the channel optimal for the joint two-copy fidelity is different from the one optimal for the single-copy fidelities. Finally, we show that the locally optimal cloner cannot be implemented using only operations which preserve fermionic Gaussian states.

Classification of quantum states through conserved operators

Determining whether quantum states can be interconverted by a prescribed set of transformations is a fundamental problem in quantum information. Here we develop a general classification framework based on conserved operators (COs), i.e., not necessarily hermitian matrices having the state of interest as an eigenstate....

Approximation theorems for fermionic Gaussian states

A recurring principle in many-body physics is that sufficiently distributed interactions or correlations lead to an effectively mean-field description. For fermionic Gaussian states, we establish a quantitative version of this principle directly at the level of Majorana covariance matrices. The main observation is that...

Universal Bound and Phase Transition in Many-Body Fermionic Non-Gaussianity

Fermionic non-Gaussianity is a resource for universal quantum computation that can be generated by interactions in quantum many-body systems. Using the magic R\'enyi entropy (MRE) as a measure of non-Gaussianity, we derive its universal upper bound and Haar mean, proving that typical Haar-random states attain the maxim...

Optimal two-mode bosonic loss codes from finite group symmetry

Photon loss is a dominant noise process in bosonic quantum hardware, including superconducting cavities. Fixed-total-photon-number qubit encodings in two bosonic modes retain the loss-detection advantage of dual-rail qubits while supporting photon loss correction. Optimizing entanglement fidelity in this setting for $4...

Exact Entanglement Swapping through Single-Occupancy Measurements in Gaussian Fermion States

We determine the exact entanglement structure of the conditional state obtained by measuring $m$ corresponding rungs ($m\leq N/2$) in two identical copies of an arbitrary half-filled free fermion Gaussian state and post-selecting the same normalized single-fermion state ($|\psi\rangle = u|10\rangle+v|01\rangle$, where...

Quantum Fisher Information as the Speed Limit for Multipartite Entanglement

We derive a universal upper bound on the speed of multipartite entanglement generation. For arbitrary differentiable pure multipartite states undergoing parameter-dependent evolution, we prove that the rate of change of generalized concurrence is bounded by the square root of the quantum Fisher information (QFI). The p...
