Impact of High-Brightness Entangled Photon Pairs on CHSH Inequality Experiment

Abstract: Verifying the violation of Bell’s inequality is one of the most representative methods to demonstrate that entangled photon pairs prepared in a quantum optics-based system exhibit quantum properties. While experiments on Bell inequality violations have been theoretically well-established and extensively conducted to implement various quantum information technologies in laboratory settings, mathematical modeling for systematically […]

Beyond asymptotic scaling: Comparing functional quantum linear solvers

Abstract: Solving systems of linear equations is a key subroutine in many quantum algorithms. In the last 15 years, many quantum linear solvers (QLS) have been developed, competing to achieve the best asymptotic worst-case complexity. Most QLS assume fault-tolerant quantum computers, so they cannot yet be benchmarked on real hardware. Because an algorithm with better […]

We assess the convergence of the Carleman linearization of advection–diffusion–reaction (ADR) equations with a logistic nonlinearity. It is shown that five Carleman iterates provide a satisfactory approximation of the original ADR across a broad range of parameters and strength of nonlinearity. To assess the feasibility of a quantum algorithm based on this linearization, we analyze […]
