Boundary-Aware QFT Block-Encoding of Fractional Laplacians

The resulting compressed block satisfies P_{N→M}^† Ã^{(M)}_{α,h} P_{N→M} = A^{(N)}_{α,h} + E^{(M)}, where E^{(M)} is controlled by the tail of the semi-discrete convolution kernel.
That zero-padding into an M-point register followed by compression recovers the open-boundary Toeplitz action up to an error term whose size is governed solely by the kernel tail (abstract, section on the aliasing identity).
The paper presents a zero-padding method to make QFT block-encodings match open-boundary Toeplitz truncations of fractional Laplacians instead of periodic circulant surrogates.
