abstract

Motivated by their necessity for most fault-tolerant quantum computation schemes, we formulate a resource theory for magic states. We first show that robustness of magic is a well-behaved magic monotone that operationally quantifies the classical simulation overhead for a Gottesman-Knill type scheme using ancillary magic states. Our framework subsequently finds immediate application in the task of synthesizing non-Clifford gates using magic states. When magic states are interspersed with Clifford gates, Pauli measurements and stabilizer ancillas - the most general synthesis scenario - then the class of synthesizable unitaries is hard to characterize. Our techniques can place non-trivial lower bounds on the number of magic states required for implementing a given target unitary. Guided by these results we have found new and optimal examples of such synthesis.

Universal Non-stabilizerness Dynamics Across Quantum Phase Transitions

quant-ph · 2026-03-09 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Stabilizer Rényi entropies and Pauli spectrum cumulants show universal power-law scaling with driving rate in slow processes across quantum phase transitions, with the logarithmic Pauli spectrum asymptotically Gaussian, demonstrated in the transverse-field Ising model and long-range Kitaev models.

The nonlocal magic of a holographic Schwinger pair

hep-th · 2026-05-05 · unverdicted · novelty 6.0

Holographic Schwinger pair creation generates nonlocal magic for spacetime dimensions d>2, as shown by a non-flat entanglement spectrum that can be read from the probe brane free energy.
