abstract

Entanglement is a quantum resource, in some ways analogous to randomness in classical computation. Inspired by recent work of Gheorghiu and Hoban, we define the notion of "pseudoentanglement'', a property exhibited by ensembles of efficiently constructible quantum states which are indistinguishable from quantum states with maximal entanglement. Our construction relies on the notion of quantum pseudorandom states -- first defined by Ji, Liu and Song -- which are efficiently constructible states indistinguishable from (maximally entangled) Haar-random states. Specifically, we give a construction of pseudoentangled states with entanglement entropy arbitrarily close to $\log n$ across every cut, a tight bound providing an exponential separation between computational vs information theoretic quantum pseudorandomness. We discuss applications of this result to Matrix Product State testing, entanglement distillation, and the complexity of the AdS/CFT correspondence. As compared with a previous version of this manuscript (arXiv:2211.00747v1) this version introduces a new pseudorandom state construction, has a simpler proof of correctness, and achieves a technically stronger result of low entanglement across all cuts simultaneously.

  2. Shallow quantum circuit for generating extremely low-entangled approximate state designs

    quant-ph 2025-07 reject novelty 7.0 of 10

    Approximate state t-designs can be built from low-entanglement states via random injective maps, but the claimed tight lower bound on magic fails for small t since stabilizer states form an exact 2-design with zero magic.

  3. Quantifying mixed-state entanglement via partial transpose and realignment moments

    quant-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The p4-negativity, a fourth-moment quantity measurable with four copies of a state, lower-bounds the partial-transpose negativity and suffices to determine the Haar-random-state entanglement phase diagram.

  4. Emergent Holographic Spacetime from Quantum Information

    hep-th 2025-06 unverdicted novelty 3.0 of 10

    Takayanagi's essay outlines a research program in which holographic spacetime, including the time direction, may emerge from entanglement, complexity, and complex-valued pseudo-entropy, without presenting a new derivation.
