We introduce an approximate description of an $N$-qubit state, which contains sufficient information to estimate the expectation value of any observable with precision independent of $N$. We show, in fact, that the error in the estimation of the observables' expectation values decreases as the inverse of the square root of the number of the system's identical preparations and increases, at most, linearly in a suitably defined, $N$-independent, seminorm of the observables. Building the…

It is proven that for any input distribution D(x), a classical ML model can provide accurate predictions on average by accessing E a number of times comparable to the optimal quantum ML model, and it is proved that the exponential quantum advantage is possible.

An efficient derandomization procedure is proposed that iteratively replaces random single-qubit measurements by fixed Pauli measurements; the resulting deterministic measurement procedure is guaranteed to perform at least as well as the randomized one.

It is proved that to estimate absolute values of all $n-qubit Pauli observables, algorithms with k < n qubits of quantum memory require at least$\Omega(2^{(n-k)/3})$samples, but there is an algorithm using$n$-qu bit quantum memory which only requires$\mathcal{O}(n)\$ samples.

This paper introduces the Virtual Linear Map Algorithm (VILMA), a new method that enables not only to estimate multiple operator averages using classical post-processing of informationally complete measurement outcomes, but also to do so for the image of the measured reference state under low-depth circuits of arbitrary, not necessarily physical, k -local maps.
