The impossibility of perfectly copying (or cloning) an arbitrary quantum state is one of the basic rules governing the physics of quantum systems. The processes that perform the optimal approximate cloning have been found in many cases. These "quantum cloning machines" are important tools for studying a wide variety of tasks, e.g. state estimation and eavesdropping on quantum cryptography. This paper provides a comprehensive review of quantum cloning machines (both for discrete-dimensional and for continuous-variable quantum systems); in addition, it presents the role of cloning in quantum cryptography, the link between optimal cloning and light amplification via stimulated emission, and the experimental demonstrations of optimal quantum cloning.

  1. Sequential quantum processes with group symmetries

    quant-ph 2025-10 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A canonical streaming circuit decomposition for (G×H)-invariant quantum combs is derived, and numerical optimization suggests a deterministic 7-query transposition protocol for qutrits that is reported as exact.

  2. Cloning Quantum Channels

    quant-ph 2025-09 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    The paper unifies state and channel cloning, proves that a channel family can super-replicate only when a certain generator β(x) is nonzero, and exhibits noisy phase gates as the first non-unitary examples.
