Summary: In this paper, the entangling quantum generative adversarial network (EQ-GAN) is investigated for multiqubit learning. It is shown that EQ-GAN can learn circuits more efficiently than SWAP test and generate excellent overlap matrix elements for learning VQE states of small molecules. However, the lack of phase estimation prevents it from directly estimating energy. Additionally, EQ-GAN demonstrates its potential in learning random states.

Summary: Rydberg atoms with strong and tunable interactions can be utilized to realize fast two-qubit entangling gates. A generalization of these gates to multiqubit Rydberg-blockade gates involving many control and target qubits simultaneously is proposed, achieved by using strong microwave fields to dress nearby Rydberg states. The implementation of these multiqubit gates has the potential to simplify quantum algorithms and state preparation, as demonstrated by the creation of a 25-atom Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger state using only three gates with a 5.8% error rate.

Summary: The study explores the Bohmian trajectories of a 4-qubit system and finds that the chaotic trajectories are both ergodic and effectively ordered for longer times compared to the 2 and 3-qubit cases. It also shows that the higher the dimensionality of the system, the larger the proportion of chaotic trajectories within the Born distribution, making Born's rule accessible by practically all initial distributions in multiqubit systems.

Summary: Several techniques have been introduced to mitigate errors in near-term quantum computers, focusing on gate errors and measurement errors. A widely used transition matrix error mitigation technique has limitations when state-preparation errors are present. A new measurement error mitigation technique, a conditionally rigorous TMEM, has been developed to address this issue and has been demonstrated on IBM Q superconducting qubits.

Summary: In this paper, the geometric measure of multipartite quantum discord is evaluated and the results for a large family of multiqubit states are obtained. The dynamic behavior of geometric discord for the family of two-, three- and four-qubit states under phase noise acting on the first qubit is investigated. It is discovered that sudden change of multipartite geometric discord can appear when phase noise act only on one part of the two-, three- and four-qubit states.

Summary: This study investigates a two-interacting-qubit quantum Rabi-like model with vanishing transverse fields on the qubit pair. Regardless of the coupling regime, this model can be exactly and unitarily reduced to two independent single-spin quantum Rabi models, where the spin-spin coupling acts as the transverse field. This transformation and the analytical treatment of the single-spin quantum Rabi model are crucial in proving the integrability of our model. The study reveals the existence of different first-order quantum phase transitions characterized by discontinuous two-spin magnetization, mean photon number, and concurrence.

Summary: In this study, a novel approach using a D-Wave quantum annealer is experimentally explored to predict financial crashes in a complex financial network. The performance of the quantum annealer in achieving financial equilibrium is benchmarked. The equilibrium condition of a nonlinear financial model is embedded into a higher-order unconstrained binary optimization (HUBO) problem, which is then transformed into a spin-1/2 Hamiltonian with at most, two-qubit interactions. The problem is equivalent to finding the ground state of an interacting spin Hamiltonian, which can be approximated with a quantum annealer. The experiment paves the way for the codification of this quantitative macroeconomics problem in quantum annealers.

Summary: We investigated the tunable control of non-Markovianity in a bosonic mode by coupling it to auxiliary qubits in a thermal reservoir. By considering the Tavis-Cummings model for a single cavity mode and auxiliary qubits, we studied the manipulation of dynamical non-Markovianity with respect to the qubit frequency. Our findings reveal that controlling the auxiliary systems can influence the cavity dynamics as a time-dependent decay rate. Finally, we demonstrate how this tunable time-dependent decay rate can be used to engineer bosonic quantum memristors, which are essential for developing neuromorphic quantum technologies.

Summary: Simulating quantum many-body systems is challenging, especially for fermionic systems due to the emergence of nonlocal interactions. We present a digital-analog quantum algorithm that can simulate a wide range of fermionic Hamiltonians, including the well-known Fermi-Hubbard model. These methods allow quantum algorithms to go beyond digital versions by efficiently utilizing coherence time. Additionally, we demonstrate a low-connected architecture for realistic digital-analog implementations of specific fermionic models.

Summary: The propagation of phonons in the presence of a particle sink with radial flow in a Bose-Einstein condensate is considered. It is found that due to the particle sink, which simulates a static acoustic black hole, the phonon experiences significant spacetime curvature at a considerable distance from the sink. The trajectory of the phonons is bent after passing by the particle sink, simulating the gravitational lensing effect in a Bose-Einstein condensate. Possible experimental implementations are discussed.

The study shows that the generation time is at the nanosecond scale and does not depend on the number of system components. Furthermore, the protocol is not significantly affected by dissipative dynamics. The possible implementation with circuit quantum electrodynamics architecture is discussed.
