We present sum-of-squares spectral amplification (SOSSA), a framework for improving quantum simulation relevant to low-energy problems. We show how SOSSA can be applied to problems like energy and phase estimation and provide fast quantum algorithms for these problems that significantly improve over prior art. To illustrate the power of SOSSA in applications, we consider the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model, a representative strongly correlated system, and demonstrate asymptotic speedups over generic simulation methods by a factor of the square root of the system size. Our results reinforce those observed in [G.H. Low \textit{et al.}, arXiv:2502.15882 (2025)], where SOSSA was used to achieve state-of-the-art gate costs for phase estimation of real-world quantum chemistry systems.

  1. Optimal Lower Bounds for Hamiltonian Simulation

    quant-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0

    There exist simple weighted-local Hamiltonians for which quantum simulation requires Ω(min over K of (Kt + t²λ_K²/ε)) gates — exactly matching the composite qDRIFT algorithm's cost.

  2. Fault-tolerant simulation of the electronic structure using Projector Augmented-Waves and Bloch orbitals

    quant-ph 2026-04 unverdicted novelty 6.0

    Bloch-UPAW integrates Bloch orbitals and local UPAW corrections to enable lower-resource fault-tolerant quantum simulations of solids, showing roughly 10x Toffoli reduction for bulk diamond.
