We show that there exist non-relativistic scattering experiments which, if successful, freeze out, speed up or even reverse the free dynamics of any ensemble of quantum systems present in the scattering region. This time translation effect is universal, i.e., it is independent of the particular interaction between the scattering particles and the target systems, or the (possibly non-Hermitian) Hamiltonian governing the evolution of the latter. The protocols require careful preparation of the probes which are scattered, and success is heralded by projective measurements of these probes at the conclusion of the experiment. We fully characterize the possible time translations which we can effect on multiple target systems through a scattering protocol of fixed duration. The core results are: a) when the target is a single system, we can translate it backwards in time for an amount proportional to the experimental runtime; b) when n targets are present in the scattering region, we can make a single system evolve n times faster (backwards or forwards), at the cost of keeping the remaining systems stationary in time. For high n our protocols therefore allow one to map, in short experimental time, a system to the state it would have reached with a very long unperturbed evolution in either positive or negative time.

We consider a scenario where we wish to bring a closed system of known Hilbert space dimension $d_S$ (the target), subject to an unknown Hamiltonian evolution, back to its quantum state at a past time $t_0$. The target is out of our control: this mea
ns that we ignore both its free Hamiltonian and how the system interacts with other quantum systems we may use to influence it. Under these conditions, we prove that there exist protocols within the framework of non-relativistic quantum physics which reset the target system to its exact quantum state at $t_0$. Each resetting protocol is successful with non-zero probability for all possible free Hamiltonians and interaction unitaries, save a subset of zero measure. When the target is a qubit and the interaction is sampled from the Haar measure, the simplest resetting circuits have a significant average probability of success and their implementation is within reach of current quantum technologies. Finally, we find that, in case the resetting protocol fails, it is possible to run a further protocol that, if successful, undoes both the natural evolution of the target and the effects of the failed protocol over the latter. By chaining in this fashion several such protocols, one can substantially increase the overall probability of a successful resetting.
Quantum resetting protocols allow a quantum system to be sent to a state in the past by making it interact with quantum probes when neither the free evolution of the system nor the interaction is controlled. We experimentally verify the simplest non-
trivial case of a quantum resetting protocol, known as the $mathcal{W}_4$ protocol, with five superconducting qubits, testing it with different types of free evolutions and target-probe interactions. After projection, we obtained a reset state fidelity as high as $0.951$, and the process fidelity was found to be $0.792$. We also implemented 100 randomly-chosen interactions and demonstrated an average success probability of $0.323$ for $|1rangle$ and $0.292$ for $|-rangle$, experimentally confirmed the nonzero probability of success for unknown interactions; the numerical simulated values are about $0.3$. Our experiment shows that the simplest quantum resetting protocol can be implemented with current technologies, making such protocols a valuable tool in the eternal fight against unwanted evolution in quantum systems.
In a seminal paper (Page and Wootters 1983) Page and Wootters suggest time evolution could be described solely in terms of correlations between systems and clocks, as a means of dealing with the problem of time stemming from vanishing Hamiltonian dyn
amics in many theories of quantum gravity. Their approach to relational time centres around the existence of a Hamiltonian and the subsequent constraint on physical states. In this paper we present a state-centric reformulation of the Page and Wootters model better suited to theories which intrinsically lack Hamiltonian dynamics, such as Chern--Simons theories. We describe relational time by encoding logical clock qubits into anyons---the topologically protected degrees of freedom in Chern--Simons theories. The timing resolution of such anyonic clocks is determined by the universality of the anyonic braid group, with non-universal models naturally exhibiting discrete time. We exemplify this approach using SU(2)$_2$ anyons and discuss generalizations to other states and models.
Time crystals are genuinely non-equilibrium quantum phases of matter that break time-translational symmetry. While in non-equilibrium closed systems time crystals have been experimentally realized, it remains an open question whether or not such a ph
ase survives when systems are coupled to an environment. Although dissipation caused by the coupling to a bath may stabilize time crystals in some regimes, the introduction of incoherent noise may also destroy the time crystalline order. Therefore, the mechanisms that stabilize a time crystal in open and closed systems are not necessarily the same. Here, we propose a way to identify an open system time crystal based on a single object: the Floquet propagator. Armed with such a description we show time-crystalline behavior in an explicitly short-range interacting open system and demonstrate the crucial role of the nature of the decay processes.
The Clifford+$T$ quantum computing gate library for single qubit gates can create all unitary matrices that are generated by the group $langle H, Trangle$. The matrix $T$ can be considered the fourth root of Pauli $Z$, since $T^4 = Z$ or also the eig
hth root of the identity $I$. The Hadamard matrix $H$ can be used to translate between the Pauli matrices, since $(HTH)^4$ gives Pauli $X$. We are generalizing both these roots of the Pauli matrices (or roots of the identity) and translation matrices to investigate the groups they generate: the so-called Pauli root groups. In this work we introduce a formalization of such groups, study finiteness and infiniteness properties, and precisely determine equality and subgroup relations.
