For certifying $d$-dimensional states, $\Theta(d/\epsilon^2)$ copies of $\rho$ are known to be necessary and sufficient. However, the algorithm achieving this complexity makes fully entangled measurements over all $O(d/\epsilon^2)$ copies of $\rho$. Often, one is interested in certifying states to a high precision; this makes such joint measurements intractable even for low-dimensional states. Thus, we study whether one can obtain optimal rates for quantum state certification and related testing problems while only performing measurements on $t$ copies at once, for some $1 new | recent | 2026-04 Change to browse by: cs cs.DS References & Citations INSPIRE HEP NASA ADSGoogle Scholar Semantic Scholar export BibTeX citation Loading...
