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 ay employ classical channels and measurement gates. If $C$ computes, for each computation path $mu$ through the circuit, a unitary transformation $U_mu: H_1 to H_2$ then, for each $mu$, the probability that a computation takes path $mu$ is independent of the input.
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 information in atomic spins. In addition to the configurability, the protocol also offers favourable scaling with an increasing number of modes where N memories can be configured to implement an arbitrary N-mode unitary operations during storage and readout. We demonstrate the versatility of this protocol by showing an example where cascaded memories are used to implement a conditional CZ gate.

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 of finite-dimensional *-representations of the corresponding bi-Hopf-Galois object. We give a constructive classification of fibre functors accessible by a UPT from the canonical fibre functor, as well as UPTs themselves, in terms of Frobenius algebras in the category Rep(A_G), where A_G is the Hopf *-algebra dual to the compact quantum group. As an example, we show that finite-dimensional quantum isomorphisms from a quantum graph X are UPTs between fibre functors on Rep(G_X), where G_X is the quantum automorphism group of X.

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. Yet, one of their main challenges is how to approximate the infinitely-many coupled differential equations that are produced throughout this flow. Here we show that tensor networks offer a natural and non-perturbative truncation scheme in terms of entanglement. The corresponding scheme is called entanglement-CUT or eCUT. It can be used to extract the low-energy physics of quantum many-body Hamiltonians, including quasiparticle energy gaps. We provide the general idea behind eCUT and explain its implementation for finite 1d systems using the formalism of matrix product operators. We also present proof-of-principle results for the spin-1/2 1d quantum Ising model and the 3-state quantum Potts model in a transverse field. Entanglement-CUTs can also be generalized to higher dimensions and to the thermodynamic limit.
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 tion (pCUT) among others. So far, this approach required an equidistant unperturbed spectrum. Here, we pursue two goals: First, we extend its applicability to non-equidistant spectra with the particular focus on an efficient derivation of the differential flow equations, which define the enhanced perturbative continuous unitary transformation (epCUT). Second, we show that the numerical integration of the flow equations yields a robust scheme to extract data from the epCUT. The method is illustrated by the perturbation of the harmonic oscillator with a quartic term and of the two-leg spin ladders in the strong-rung-coupling limit for uniform and alternating rung couplings. The latter case provides an example of perturbation around a non-equidistant spectrum.
