We demonstrate a method for general linear optical networks that allows one to factorize any SU($n$) matrix in terms of two SU($n-1)$ blocks coupled by an SU(2) entangling beam splitter. The process can be recursively continued in an efficient way, ending in a tidy arrangement of SU(2) transformations. The method hinges only on a linear relationship between input and output states, and can thus be applied to a variety of scenarios, such as microwaves, acoustics, and quantum fields.
Let $H_1, H_2$ be Hilbert spaces of the same finite dimension $ge2$, and $C$ an arbitrary quantum circuit with (principal) input state in $H_1$ and (principal) output state in $H_2$. $C$ may use ancillas and produce garbage which is traced out. $C$ m
We show that a set of optical memories can act as a configurable linear optical network operating on frequency-multiplexed optical states. Our protocol is applicable to any quantum memories that employ off-resonant Raman transitions to store optical
We study unitary pseudonatural transformations (UPTs) between fibre functors Rep(G) -> Hilb, where G is a compact quantum group. For fibre functors F_1, F_2 we show that the category of UPTs F_1 -> F_2 and modifications is isomorphic to the category
Continuous unitary transformations are a powerful tool to extract valuable information out of quantum many-body Hamiltonians, in which the so-called flow equation transforms the Hamiltonian to a diagonal or block-diagonal form in second quantization.
Unitary transformations are an essential tool for the theoretical understanding of many systems by mapping them to simpler effective models. A systematically controlled variant to perform such a mapping is a perturbative continuous unitary transforma
