Summary: In this work, a new approach for eliminating renormalization scale and scheme dependence in observables is explicated. This approach matches RSS-dependent observables to a theory that is independent of these dependencies, resulting in effective RSS-independent expressions. By matching at a scale at which experimental measurements are determined, an effective theoretical observable is obtained. The approach is illustrated with a study of the cross-section ratio Re+e- for e(+)e(-) -> hadrons and is shown to achieve scale and scheme independence.

Summary: This study addresses three important questions about band theory on hyperbolic lattices, and rigorously proves a generalized Bloch theorem by formulating periodic boundary conditions for finite lattices. The concept of Brillouin zone is further generalized to the moduli space of higher-rank stable holomorphic vector bundles.

Summary: In this study, an open quantum system of N interacting spin-1/2 particles on a d-dimensional lattice is considered. A neural network representation for the system density operator that explicitly accounts for the system symmetries is defined. The approach is validated by determining the steady state structure of the one-dimensional dissipative XYZ model, showing that the invariant Ansatz defined in the paper is more expressive and can be optimized with lesser numerical efforts compared to a standard RBM.

Summary: This article explores the non-Hermitian extension of quantum chemistry in the complex plane and its connection with perturbation theory, with a focus on the physics of exceptional points and the historical research activities in this field. The convergence behavior of perturbative series, including resummation techniques like Pade and quadratic approximants, is discussed, along with their implications in improving accuracy. The versatility of the Hubbard dimer at half filling in understanding analytically-continued perturbation theory in the complex plane is highlighted.

Summary: Perturbation theory is a powerful tool for approximate solutions to complex problems by starting from the exact solution of a simpler problem. Advances in quantum computing have provided opportunities for alternatives to classical methods. We present a general quantum circuit that estimates both energy and eigenstates corrections, which outperforms the classical version in estimating second-order energy corrections. Our work offers a general approach to studying complex systems with quantum devices and can be applied to other Hamiltonian systems in chemistry and physics.

We demonstrate a significant improvement in the agreement between large-order asymptotic estimates and perturbation theory when incorporating two-loop corrections to the large-order behavior.

Summary: This paper investigates disjointly non-singular operators from a Banach lattice to a Banach space, including improved results for L-p with 1<p<infinity, and demonstrates the different behaviors of DN-S operators in the cases of p = 2 and p not equal to 2. As an application, it is proven that strongly embedded subspaces of L-p form an open subset within the set of all closed subspaces.

Summary: Lattice simulations in the Landau gauge have shown that the coupling constant in the QCD sector remains finite and moderate at all scales, while the gluon propagator reaches a finite nonzero value at vanishing momentum. Studies have successfully described infrared QCD dynamics using the perturbative Curci-Ferrari model, with calculations showing good agreement with lattice simulations. The approach has also been applied to scenarios with dynamical quarks, showing controlled approximation schemes can account for chiral symmetry breaking. Applications to nonzero temperature and chemical potential have also been explored.

Summary: Measuring local temperatures of open systems out of equilibrium is a novel approach to study the local thermodynamic properties of nanosystems. An operational protocol has been proposed to determine the unique local temperature by minimizing perturbations to a certain local observable. The influence of quantum resonances on the local temperature in multi-impurity chains under a thermal bias is elucidated through analytical and numerical results.

Summary: A recursive procedure based on the small time expansion of the propagator is used to generate a semiclassical expansion of the quantum action for a quantum mechanical potential in arbitrary dimensions, using spectral information from the propagator singularities on the complex t plane. This feature allows for generalization to higher dimensions, and is illustrated with simple examples in nonrelativistic quantum mechanics.

Summary: The heavy-fluxonium circuit shows promise as a building block for superconducting quantum processors due to its long relaxation and dephasing time at the flux-frustration point. New protocols have been developed for reset, fast coherent control, and readout to enable high-quality operation of the qubit with 14 MHz transition frequency, significantly lower than the ambient thermal energy scale. By utilizing higher levels of the fluxonium and nonadiabatic Landau-Zener transitions, fast and high-fidelity single-qubit gates have been achieved with measurements of qubit coherence and average gate fidelity.

Summary: In this study, a logical qubit encoded in multi-photon states of a superconducting cavity is protected with autonomous correction of certain quantum errors by tailoring the dissipation it is exposed to. The passive protocol implemented with continuous-wave control fields autonomously corrects single-photon-loss errors and increases the coherence time of the bosonic qubit by over a factor of two. This approach offers a resource-efficient alternative or supplement to active QEC in future quantum computing architectures.

Summary: The ability to engineer high-fidelity gates remains a primary challenge in achieving quantum advantage. This study proposes a robust trajectory optimization technique using forward-mode differentiation to suppress gate errors. It also utilizes a computationally efficient model and optimal control to achieve high-fidelity gates in the presence of depolarization. The techniques successfully suppress simulated gate errors due to parameter uncertainty.

Summary: The theory of quantum algorithms promises the benefits of using the laws of quantum mechanics to solve computational problems. However, a prerequisite for applying these algorithms is loading classical data onto a quantum state. Existing methods either require linear growth in quantum circuit depth or width, nullifying the advantage of representing exponentially many classical data in a quantum state. This paper presents a configurable bidirectional procedure that balances the trade-off between quantum circuit width and depth, allowing for sublinear growth when encoding N-dimensional classical data.

Summary: As quantum computers with large numbers of qubits become more available, it is important to efficiently select a subset of high-performing physical qubits for executing quantum programs. In this research, we propose a practical solution to the problem of qubit assignment using simulated annealing and a cost function based on the reversibility of a quantum process. The use of Loschmidt echoes and simulated annealing provides a scalable and flexible approach to optimizing qubit assignment on near-term hardware, as demonstrated through theoretical justification, experimental validation, and classical simulations.

Summary: This article studies the convex combinations of (d+1)-generalized Pauli dynamical maps in a Hilbert space of dimension d. It is found that for certain choices of the decoherence function, the maps are noninvertible and this noninvertibility remains under convex combinations. We evaluate the fraction of invertible maps obtained upon mixing for dynamical maps characterized by a specific decoherence function, and observe that this fraction increases superexponentially with dimension d.

Summary: The calculation of dynamic response functions is expected to benefit from rapidly developing quantum hardware resources and offers potential applications in analyzing real-time quantities of strongly correlated quantum systems. The calculation of response functions for fermionic systems at moderate momenta and energies is a promising early application due to nearly local relevant operators and the ability to resolve energies in moderately short real time.

Summary: This study investigates the conditions under which a semigroup is obtained by convex combinations of channels, specifically focusing on the set of Pauli and generalized Pauli channels. The findings show that merely mixing semigroups cannot result in a semigroup. Contrary to intuition, it is discovered that for a convex combination to yield a semigroup, the majority of input channels must be noninvertible.
