Unitary operations are a fundamental component of quantum algorithms, but they seem to be far more useful if given with a "quantum control" as a controlled unitary operation. However, quantum operations are not limited to unitary operations. Nevertheless, it is not a priori clear if a controlled form of these general deterministic quantum operations can be well-defined. This paper proposes a mathematically consistent definition of a controlled form of general deterministic quantum operations…

• 2021
The standard notion of control is extended to more general notions, including control of multiple channels with possibly different input and output systems, and a theoretical framework, called supermaps on routed channels, which provides a compact representation of coherent control as an operation performed on the extended channels.
Topological obstructions to implementing quantum if-clause
• Computer Science
• 2020
The method regards a quantum circuit as a continuous function and uses topological arguments, and compared to the polynomial method [3], it excludes quantum circuits of any query complexity.

It is proved that this new framework allows for a consistent and intuitive diagrammatic representation in terms of circuit diagrams, applicable to both pure and mixed quantum theory, and exemplify its use in several situations, including the superposition of quantum channels and the causal decompositions of unitaries.

It is shown that every composable constraint encoding can be used to construct an equivalent notion of a constrained category in which morphisms are supplemented with the constraints they satisfy, and that any time-symmetric theory of relational constraints admits a faithful notion of intersection.

A universal construction of success-or-draw structure that works for any probabilistic higher-order transformation on unitary operations is provided and a semidefinite programming approach is presented to obtain optimal success- or-draw protocols and the problem of inverting a general unitary operation is analyzed.

It is proved that this success probability of distilling a Bell state does not increase under the action of a quantum super-channel, thus establishing this measure as a fundamental measure of channel distinguishability.

This work shows that, when quantum channels are controlled coherently, information about their specific implementation is accessible in the output state of the joint control-target system and allows two different implementations of what is usually considered to be the same channel to therefore be differentiated.
