abstract

We study different aspects of the stabilizer entropies (SEs) and compare them against known nonstabilizerness monotones such as the min-relative entropy and the robustness of magic. First, by means of explicit examples, we show that, for R\'enyi index $0\leq n<2$, the SEs are not monotones with respect to stabilizer protocols which include computational-basis measurements, not even when restricting to pure states (while the question remains open for $n\geq 2$). Next, we show that, for any R\'enyi index, the SEs do not satisfy a strong monotonicity condition with respect to computational-basis measurements. We further study SEs in different classes of many-body states. We compare the SEs with other measures, either proving or providing numerical evidence for inequalities between them. Finally, we discuss exact or efficient tensor-network numerical methods to compute SEs of matrix-product states (MPSs) for large numbers of qubits. In addition to previously developed exact methods to compute the R\'enyi SEs, we also put forward a scheme based on perfect MPS sampling, allowing us to compute efficiently the von Neumann SE for large bond dimensions.

  1. Magic without a phase: phase-independent stabilizer R\'enyi entropy in gluon scattering

    hep-th 2026-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A phase-averaged stabilizer Rényi entropy is introduced for tree-level gluon scattering, with color-independent phase-independent magic that is larger in 3→2 than 2→2 and has a soft-limit lower bound in 2→3.

  2. Connecting Magic Dynamics in Thermofield Double States to Spectral Form Factors

    quant-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    For chaotic all-to-all systems, the stabilizer Rényi entropy of thermofield double states is set by the spectral form factor and saturates through a first-order dynamical transition.

  3. Reconstructing non-Abelian braiding and fusion without anyon transport

    quant-ph 2026-08 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A compact two-qutrit measurement-only protocol on a trapped-ion processor reconstructs the squared braiding phases and fusion amplitudes of D(S3) anyons with average output-state fidelities above 0.998.

  4. Magic-protected entanglement and Clifford-irreducible structure in magic state space

    quant-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Quantum states are classified by how much bipartite entanglement survives optimal simplification by classically easy Clifford operations, yielding a split into weakly protected T-magic and strongly protected W-magic regimes.

  5. Nonlocal Nonstabilizerness from Holographic Schwinger Pair Production

    hep-th 2026-05 unverdicted novelty 6.0 of 10

    In holographic Schwinger pair production, the excess capacity of entanglement is √λ(d−2)/(d−1)³ — positive for d>2, zero for d=2 — so the produced pair carries nonlocal magic for d>2.
