Application of a resource theory for magic states to fault-tolerant quantum computing

M Howard, E Campbell - Physical review letters, 2017 - APS
Motivated by their necessity for most fault-tolerant quantum computation schemes, we
formulate a resource theory for magic states. First, we show that robustness of magic is a …

How to quantify coherence: Distinguishing speakable and unspeakable notions

I Marvian, RW Spekkens - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
Quantum coherence is a critical resource for many operational tasks. Understanding how to
quantify and manipulate it also promises to have applications for a diverse set of problems in …

Coherence as a Resource for Shor's Algorithm

F Ahnefeld, T Theurer, D Egloff, JM Matera… - Physical Review Letters, 2022 - APS
Shor's factoring algorithm provides a superpolynomial speedup over all known classical
factoring algorithms. Here, we address the question of which quantum properties fuel this …

Robustness of asymmetry and coherence of quantum states

M Piani, M Cianciaruso, TR Bromley, C Napoli… - Physical Review A, 2016 - APS
Quantum states may exhibit asymmetry with respect to the action of a given group. Such an
asymmetry of states can be considered a resource in applications such as quantum …

Measures and applications of quantum correlations

G Adesso, TR Bromley… - Journal of Physics A …, 2016 - iopscience.iop.org
Quantum information theory is built upon the realisation that quantum resources like
coherence and entanglement can be exploited for novel or enhanced ways of transmitting …

Operational resource theory of imaginarity

KD Wu, TV Kondra, S Rana, CM Scandolo, GY Xiang… - Physical Review Letters, 2021 - APS
Wave-particle duality is one of the basic features of quantum mechanics, giving rise to the
use of complex numbers in describing states of quantum systems and their dynamics and …
