Abstract
A central model in quantum machine learning is the quantum neural network (QNN), whose design requires balancing expressivity and trainability. Technically, expressivity is studied through circuit-function analysis, such as quantum signal processing, while trainability is analyzed using dynamical-Lie-algebra (DLA) methods. To support certified QNN design, we formalize these major components of QNN theory in a connected lean 4 development checked by a proof kernel, where every analytic input is either proved or exposed as a named hypothesis. On the expressivity side, we prove exact if-and-only-if characterizations of single-qubit QNNs, a resource-counted quantum phase processing theorem, and an overparameterization ceiling that bounds the quantum Fisher information rank by the DLA dimension. On the trainability side, we derive the direct-sum loss-variance law through a de-circularized second-moment interface. A parameterized Casimir-uniqueness engine discharges the required inputs for fully controllable, orthogonal, and matchgate circuit families, while single-qubit and product-Clifford ensembles close the two-design assumptions directly. A capstone theorem pairs the conditional variance law with exact loss reconstruction in DLA coordinates. The development record identifies eight corrections and clarifications that were not explicit in the informal arguments. We expect this work to provide a machine-checkable foundation for QNN theory and a step toward AI-assisted or automated design of quantum machine learning algorithms.
This work constructs a native 2D pairwise ansatz and compares its expressibility and trainability with representative 1D ansatze at identical layer depths, despite their different circuit depths.
This work proposes Quantum SEDONet (Spectral-Embedded Deep Operator Network), which assigns each trunk coordinate a spectral basis according to its boundary condition: Fourier features for periodic coordinates and Chebyshev features for bounded, non-periodic coordinates.

The unitary brick-wall is proposed: a $k-particle fermionic architecture for nearest-neighbor hardware, combining Reconfigurable Beam Splitter gates with interleaved single-qubit phase gates and a non-Gaussian magic-state encoding.
Quantum resource theory has sharpened our understanding of the intrinsic complexity of quantum systems, particularly their classical simulability. However, it remains unclear which quantum resource governs the classical learnability of quantum circuits, especially beyond the regime of efficient classical simulation. Here we close this knowledge gap by studying the expectation-value functions of families of tunable quantum circuits, with many applications in digital quantum simulation, quantum metrology, and quantum-system characterization. Specifically, we introduce a new resource measure, the dynamical stabilizer entropy (\DSE), which quantifies how broadly an expectation-value function is distributed across its frequency modes. By relating \DSE to operator stabilizer entropy, we establish a computational phase diagram that compares classical simulators with quantum-data-assisted classical surrogates. We first determine the \DSE-dependent learnability boundary of this diagram by deriving bounds on the sample complexity and runtime of classical surrogates, and by developing a \DSE-guided surrogate. We then complete the diagram by proving, under standard complexity-theoretic assumptions, the existence of circuit families that can be efficiently learned by this surrogate but cannot be efficiently emulated from their circuit descriptions alone. Numerical experiments on random and structured circuits with up to 80 qubits support the predicted \DSE-dependent computational landscape. These results establish a quantitative resource-theoretic framework for delineating the boundary between classical simulation and learning, motivate resource measures linking quantum resources to learnability, and guide the design of learning-based algorithms for scalable quantum systems beyond the reach of direct classical simulation.

It is explained that the efficiently preparable states, device-generated distributions, variationally learned loading, and amortized preparation are required to get advantage from quantum machine learning and close with a checklist for evaluating input-dependent advantage claims.
As IQP circuits produce remarkably low intermediate magic relative to phase-randomised states with the same sampling distributions, this renders IQP-based quantum generative models as promising candidates for resource-efficient demonstrations of quantum advantage on early fault-tolerant architectures.
