Unitary $t$-designs are `good finite subsets of the unitary group $U(d)$ that approximate the whole unitary group $U(d)$ well. Unitary $t$-designs have been applied in randomized benchmarking, tomography, quantum cryptography and many other areas of quantum information science. If a unitary $t$-design itself is a group then it is called a unitary $t$-group. Although it is known that unitary $t$-designs in $U(d)$ exist for any $t$ and $d$, the unitary $t$-groups do not exist for $tgeq 4$ if $dgeq 3$, as it is shown by Guralnick-Tiep (2005) and Bannai-Navarro-Rizo-Tiep (BNRT, 2018). Explicit constructions of exact unitary $t$-designs in $U(d)$ are not easy in general. In particular, explicit constructions of unitary $4$-designs in $U(4)$ have been an open problem in quantum information theory. We prove that some exact unitary $(t+1)$-designs in the unitary group $U(d)$ are constructed from unitary $t$-groups in $U(d)$ that satisfy certain specific conditions. Based on this result, we specifically construct exact unitary $3$-designs in $U(3)$ from the unitary $2$-group $SL(3,2)$ in $U(3),$ and also unitary $4$-designs in $U(4)$ from the unitary $3$-group $Sp(4,3)$ in $U(4)$ numerically. We also discuss some related problems.

A unitary 2-design can be viewed as a quantum analogue of a 2-universal hash function: it is indistinguishable from a truly random unitary by any procedure that queries it twice. We show that exact unitary 2-designs on n qubits can be implemented by quantum circuits consisting of ~O(n) elementary gates in logarithmic depth. This is essentially a quadratic improvement in size (and in width times depth) over all previous implementations that are exact or approximate (for sufficiently strong approximations).
An $(n,r,s)$-system is an $r$-uniform hypergraph on $n$ vertices such that every pair of edges has an intersection of size less than $s$. Using probabilistic arguments, R{o}dl and v{S}iv{n}ajov{a} showed that for all fixed integers $r> s ge 2$, there exists an $(n,r,s)$-system with independence number $Oleft(n^{1-delta+o(1)}right)$ for some optimal constant $delta >0$ only related to $r$ and $s$. We show that for certain pairs $(r,s)$ with $sle r/2$ there exists an explicit construction of an $(n,r,s)$-system with independence number $Oleft(n^{1-epsilon}right)$, where $epsilon > 0$ is an absolute constant only related to $r$ and $s$. Previously this was known only for $s>r/2$ by results of Chattopadhyay and Goodman
The purpose of this paper is to give explicit constructions of unitary $t$-designs in the unitary group $U(d)$ for all $t$ and $d$. It seems that the explicit constructions were so far known only for very special cases. Here explicit construction means that the entries of the unitary matrices are given by the values of elementary functions at the root of some given polynomials. We will discuss what are the best such unitary $4$-designs in $U(4)$ obtained by these methods. Indeed we give an inductive construction of designs on compact groups by using Gelfand pairs $(G,K)$. Note that $(U(n),U(m) times U(n-m))$ is a Gelfand pair. By using the zonal spherical functions for $(G,K)$, we can construct designs on $G$ from designs on $K$. We remark that our proofs use the representation theory of compact groups crucially. We also remark that this method can be applied to the orthogonal groups $O(d)$, and thus provides another explicit construction of spherical $t$-designs on the $d$ dimensional sphere $S^{d-1}$ by the induction on $d$.
Many quantum information protocols require the implementation of random unitaries. Because it takes exponential resources to produce Haar-random unitaries drawn from the full $n$-qubit group, one often resorts to $t$-designs. Unitary $t$-designs mimic the Haar-measure up to $t$-th moments. It is known that Clifford operations can implement at most $3$-designs. In this work, we quantify the non-Clifford resources required to break this barrier. We find that it suffices to inject $O(t^{4}log^{2}(t)log(1/varepsilon))$ many non-Clifford gates into a polynomial-depth random Clifford circuit to obtain an $varepsilon$-approximate $t$-design. Strikingly, the number of non-Clifford gates required is independent of the system size -- asymptotically, the density of non-Clifford gates is allowed to tend to zero. We also derive novel bounds on the convergence time of random Clifford circuits to the $t$-th moment of the uniform distribution on the Clifford group. Our proofs exploit a recently developed variant of Schur-Weyl duality for the Clifford group, as well as bounds on restricted spectral gaps of averaging operators.
The Schr{o}dinger equation $psi(x)+kappa^2 psi(x)=0$ where $kappa^2=k^2-V(x)$ is rewritten as a more popular form of a second order differential equation through taking a similarity transformation $psi(z)=phi(z)u(z)$ with $z=z(x)$. The Schr{o}dinger invariant $I_{S}(x)$ can be calculated directly by the Schwarzian derivative ${z, x}$ and the invariant $I(z)$ of the differential equation $u_{zz}+f(z)u_{z}+g(z)u=0$. We find an important relation for moving particle as $ abla^2=-I_{S}(x)$ and thus explain the reason why the Schr{o}dinger invariant $I_{S}(x)$ keeps constant. As an illustration, we take the typical Heun differential equation as an object to construct a class of soluble potentials and generalize the previous results through choosing different $rho=z(x)$ as before. We get a more general solution $z(x)$ through integrating $(z)^2=alpha_{1}z^2+beta_{1}z+gamma_{1}$ directly and it includes all possibilities for those parameters. Some particular cases are discussed in detail.
