Quantum state smoothing is a technique for estimating the quantum state of a partially observed quantum system at time $tau$, conditioned on an entire observed measurement record (both before and after $tau$). However, this smoothing technique requires an observer (Alice, say) to know the nature of the measurement records that are unknown to her in order to characterize the possible true states for Bobs (say) systems. If Alice makes an incorrect assumption about the set of true states for Bobs system, she will obtain a smoothed state that is suboptimal, and, worse, may be unrealizable (not corresponding to a valid evolution for the true states) or even unphysical (not represented by a state matrix $rhogeq0$). In this paper, we review the historical background to quantum state smoothing, and list general criteria a smoothed quantum state should satisfy. Then we derive, for the case of linear Gaussian quantum systems, a necessary and sufficient constraint for realizability on the covariance matrix of the true state. Naturally, a realizable covariance of the true state guarantees a smoothed state which is physical. It might be thought that any putative true covariance which gives a physical smoothed state would be a realizable true covariance, but we show explicitly that this is not so. This underlines the importance of the realizabilty constraint.
We solve the problem of whether a set of quantum tests reveals state-independent contextuality and use this result to identify the simplest set of the minimal dimension. We also show that identifying state-independent contextuality graphs [R. Ramanat
We study pullback attractors of non-autonomous non-compact dynamical systems generated by differential equations with non-autonomous deterministic as well as stochastic forcing terms. We first introduce the concepts of pullback attractors and asympto
This paper is concerned with a risk-sensitive optimal control problem for a feedback connection of a quantum plant with a measurement-based classical controller. The plant is a multimode open quantum harmonic oscillator driven by a multichannel quant
Quantum state smoothing is a technique to construct an estimate of the quantum state at a particular time, conditioned on a measurement record from both before and after that time. The technique assumes that an observer, Alice, monitors part of the e
What can one do with a given tunable quantum device? We provide complete symmetry criteria deciding whether some effective target interaction(s) can be simulated by a set of given interactions. Symmetries lead to a better understanding of simulation
