Abstract

It is shown that the Bayesian methods in statistics can be used to solve problems in continuous photodetection with dramatically reduced effort compared with the traditional superoperator approach.

Title: Quantum-Enhanced Bayesian Inference (QEBI)

Jincheng Zhang

Quantum-Enhanced Bayesian Inference (QEBI) presents a novel approach to Bayesian inference, utilizing quantum annealing to dramatically reduce computational complexity. Traditional Bayesian methods often struggle with high-dimensional spaces and complex models, necessitating significant computational resources. QEBI leverages quantum superposition to efficiently explore the solution space, thereby minimizing the number of evaluations required for inference. This paper introduces a framework that employs quantum annealing to optimize the Bayesian inference process, offering a significant leap forward in computational efficiency compared to classical approaches. We demonstrate the efficacy of QEBI through rigorous analysis and preliminary results, illustrating its potential to unlock new possibilities in complex problem-solving.

Quantum Data Statistics

Pedro Caceres

Quantum Data Statistics (QDS) replaces classical, commutative summaries of uncertainty by operatorvalued statistical states. A rolling empirical window in a financial time series defines an empirical distribution,which is lifted to an amplitude in a Hilbert space and then represented as a density operator. This representationpreserves mixture, interaction (coherence), and eigenvector geometry—features that are systematically lostunder classical projection to scalar indicators or diagonal statistics. This paper develops a publishable research-style foundation for QDS in finance with three new components:(i) a fully specified operator-valued Bayesian learning model and decision theory on the convex state space ofdensity operators; (ii) a family of QDS test statistics for structural change and regime detection in operatortime series, including asymptotic distribution theory for Bures/relative-entropy tests and a QDS-CUSUMprocedure; and (iii) a bifurcation analysis of QDS tests and readiness rules under parametric admissibledynamics (CPTP maps), yielding early-warning criteria in terms of superoperator spectra.We prove: a quantum Bayes update theorem for general instruments; a consistency theorem connectingHellinger convergence of empirical densities to trace-norm convergence of QDS posteriors; a contraction-basedstationarity theorem for operator autoregressive dynamics; and a risk-gap dominance theorem showing thatclassical-shadow Bayes rules are strict quotients of QDS Bayes rules and generically incur larger Bayes riskwhenever losses depend on noncommutative structure. Finally, we provide a detailed blueprint for enterprisedeployment (treasury risk and liquidity, institutional execution, marketing demand signals) and for cryptofinance (cross-exchange microstructure, stablecoin stress, and regime coupling)

Continuous photodetection of resonance fluorescence

G. Nelson Jones, Ching Tsung Lee

The concept of photodetection as a continuous quantum measurement introduced by Srinivas and Davies is extended to the detection of resonance fluorescence. This is a new approach to an old subject. This is also a new development in continuous photodetection in the sense that a fermion rather than the traditional boson field is the subject of monitoring. The superoperators for the no-count and the one-count processes are postulated, following the examples of Srinivas and Davies. The probability for the m-count process is then derived on the basis of these postulates. The first two factorial moments of the photon-number distribution are calculated, which are then used to evaluate the non-classical effects in resonance fluorescence. A parameter slightly different from Mandel's is found to be more suitable indicator of photon antibunching in the transient state.
