Boson Sampling has emerged as a tool to explore the advantages of quantum over classical computers as it does not require a universal control over the quantum system, which favours current photonic experimental platforms.Here, we introduce Gaussian Boson Sampling, a classically hard-to-solve problem that uses squeezed states as a non-classical resource. We relate the probability to measure specific photon patterns from a general Gaussian state in the Fock basis to a matrix function called the hafnian, which answers the last remaining question of sampling from Gaussian states. Based on this result, we design Gaussian Boson Sampling, a #P hard problem, using squeezed states. This approach leads to a more efficient photonic boson sampler with significant advantages in generation probability and measurement time over currently existing protocols.

$N$-Photon Amplitudes in EFT from Recursion Relations and Effective Vertices
A CSW-like recursion plus a 'contact Lagrangian' computes arbitrary tree-level N-photon amplitudes in general EFTs, with results through 10 photons in Born-Infeld theory.

Classical simulation and model concentration in passive linear optics
In passive linear optics, expectation-value concentration is set by misalignment of state and observable irrep purities, and known non-concentrating regimes remain largely classically tractable via irrep truncation or...

Generalized Cross-Entropy Benchmarking for Random Circuits with Ergodicity
Random circuits satisfy an ergodicity condition for positive-coefficient polynomials, and its deviation can benchmark quantum chip fidelity, recovering and generalizing linear cross-entropy benchmarking.
