Exponentially tighter bounds on limitations of quantum error mitigation.

Quantum error mitigation has been proposed as a means to combat unwanted and unavoidable errors in near-term quantum computing without the heavy resource overheads required by fault-tolerant schemes. Recently, error mitigation has been successfully applied to reduce noise in near-term applications. In this work, however, we identify strong limitations to the degree to which quantum noise can be effectively 'undone' for larger system sizes.

Pseudomagic Quantum States.

Notions of nonstabilizerness, or "magic," quantify how nonclassical quantum states are in a precise sense: states exhibiting low nonstabilizerness preclude quantum advantage. We introduce "pseudomagic" ensembles of quantum states that, despite low nonstabilizerness, are computationally indistinguishable from those with high nonstabilizerness. Previously, such computational indistinguishability has been studied with respect to entanglement, introducing the concept of pseudoentanglement.

Exploration of the Usual Care Pathway for Rotator Cuff Related Shoulder Pain in the Western Australian Workers' Compensation System.

Purpose: Investigate components of care for rotator cuff related shoulder pain in workers' compensation in relation to claim outcomes (claim duration, total medical spend, total claim cost, return to work outcome).

Methods: Engagement with (had care, time to care) four components of care (prescribed exercise, imaging, injections, surgery) were obtained from auditing 189 closed workers' compensation files. Associations were analysed between components of care and claim outcomes.

Quantum Algorithm for Petz Recovery Channels and Pretty Good Measurements.

The Petz recovery channel plays an important role in quantum information science as an operation that approximately reverses the effect of a quantum channel. The pretty good measurement is a special case of the Petz recovery channel, and it allows for near-optimal state discrimination. A hurdle to the experimental realization of these vaunted theoretical tools is the lack of a systematic and efficient method to implement them.

Body size-dependent energy storage causes Kleiber's law scaling of the metabolic rate in planarians.

Kleiber's law, or the 3/4 -power law scaling of the metabolic rate with body mass, is considered one of the few quantitative laws in biology, yet its physiological basis remains unknown. Here, we report Kleiber's law scaling in the planarian . Its reversible and life history-independent changes in adult body mass over 3 orders of magnitude reveal that Kleiber's law does not emerge from the size-dependent decrease in cellular metabolic rate, but from a size-dependent increase in mass per cell.
