A major goal of developing high-precision control of many-body quantum systems is to realise their potential as quantum computers. Probably the most significant obstacle in this direction is the problem of decoherence: the extreme fragility of quantum systems to environmental noise and other control limitations. The theory of fault-tolerant quantum error correction has shown that quantum computation is possible even in the presence of decoherence provided that the noise affecting the quantum system satisfies certain well-defined theoretical conditions. However, existing methods for noise characterisation have become intractable already for the systems that are controlled in todays labs. In this paper we introduce a technique based on symmetrisation that enables direct experimental characterisation of key properties of the decoherence affecting a multi-body quantum system. Our method reduces the number of experiments required by existing methods from exponential to polynomial in the number of subsystems. We demonstrate the application of this technique to the optimisation of control over nuclear spins in the solid state.

Quantum systems in mixed states can be unentangled and yet still correlated in a way that is not possible for classical systems. These correlations can be quantified by the quantum discord and might provide a resource for certain mixed-state quantum
information processing tasks. Here we report on the generation of discordant states of two trapped atomic ions via Markovian decoherence processes. While entanglement is strictly non-increasing under such operations, discord can be generated in various forms. Firstly we show that, starting from two classically correlated qubits, it is possible to generate discord by applying decoherence to just one of them. Secondly, even when starting with completely uncorrelated systems, we show that discord can be generated via classically correlated decoherence processes. Finally, the Werner states are created. The generated states can be used as a resource state for quantum information transmission and could be readily extended to more ions.
Quantum networks are a new paradigm of complex networks, allowing us to harness networked quantum technologies and to develop a quantum internet. But how robust is a quantum network when its links and nodes start failing? We show that quantum network
s based on typical noisy quantum-repeater nodes are prone to discontinuous phase transitions with respect to the random loss of operating links and nodes, abruptly compromising the connectivity of the network, and thus significantly limiting the reach of its operation. Furthermore, we determine the critical quantum-repeater efficiency necessary to avoid this catastrophic loss of connectivity as a function of the network topology, the network size, and the distribution of entanglement in the network. In particular, our results indicate that a scale-free topology is a crucial design principle to establish a robust large-scale quantum internet.
Balanced gain and loss leads to stationary dynamics in open systems. This occurs naturally in PT-symmetric systems, where the imaginary part of the potential describing gain and loss is perfectly antisymmetric. While this case seems intuitive, statio
nary dynamics are also possible in asymmetric open systems. Open multi-well quantum systems can possess completely or partly real spectra if their Hamiltonian is symmetrised or semi-symmetrised, respectively. In contrast to similar concepts, symmetrisation allows for the description of physical multi-well potentials with gain and loss. A simple matrix model for the description of two and three-mode systems is used as an example, for which analytical symmetrised solutions are derived. It is explicitly shown how symmetrisation can be used to systematically find two-mode systems with a stable, stationary ground state and why only PT-symmetric two-mode systems can have stationary excited states.
Noisy, intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) computing devices offer opportunities to test the principles of quantum computing but are prone to errors arising from various sources of noise. Fluctuations in the noise itself lead to unstable devices that u
ndermine the reproducibility of NISQ results. Here we characterize the reliability of NISQ devices by quantifying the stability of essential performance metrics. Using the Hellinger distance, we quantify the similarity between experimental characterizations of several NISQ devices by comparing gate fidelities, duty cycles, and register addressability across temporal and spatial scales. Our observations collected over 22 months reveal large fluctuations in each metric that underscore the limited scales on which current NISQ devices may be considered reliable.
Every quantum system is coupled to an environment. Such system-environment interaction leads to temporal correlation between quantum operations at different times, resulting in non-Markovian noise. In principle, a full characterisation of non-Markovi
an noise requires tomography of a multi-time processes matrix, which is both computationally and experimentally demanding. In this paper, we propose a more efficient solution. We employ machine learning models to estimate the amount of non-Markovianity, as quantified by an information-theoretic measure, with tomographically incomplete measurement. We test our model on a quantum optical experiment, and we are able to predict the non-Markovianity measure with $90%$ accuracy. Our experiment paves the way for efficient detection of non-Markovian noise appearing in large scale quantum computers.
