This research introduces a tomography protocol that reduces the measurement requirements for characterizing fermionic quantum states from exponential to linear scaling with system size. By focusing on specific symmetries accessible in current ultracold-atom experiments, the method offers an efficient pathway to reconstruct complex many-body structures without needing exhaustive local measurements. This advancement directly addresses resource bottlenecks in simulating strongly correlated itinerant matter using realistic quantum hardware.
New Protocol Maps Fermionic Quantum States With Fewer Measurements

A new tomography protocol efficiently maps permutation-invariant many-body states of fermions, scaling linearly with system size.
Shion Yamashika of the University of Electro-Communications and Daisuke Yamamoto of the Nihon University have developed a new quantum state tomography protocol that reduces the number of required observables from exponential scaling to linear scaling with system size. The work focuses on permutation-invariant fermionic many-body states with U(1) particle-number symmetry, states directly accessible through current ultracold-atom experiments. Researchers…
