How much quantum physics can we explore by simply preparing and measuring a system? Very happy to share "Quantum prepare-and-measure scenarios: concepts & methods" (arxiv.org/abs/2610.20725), together with Santiago Zamora , Jonatan Bohr Brask, Rafael Chaves & Armin Tavakoli! Hope u like it!

I spent the first few months of this year in Amsterdam getting to putz around at QuSoft. It was a really fun time, and unlike the rest of my career (academic or in industry). There's a short recap on the QDNL website now! qdnl.nl/news/qdnl-vi...

You may finally rest easy at night since SICs exist in all dimensions! github.com/marozols/SIC... SICs are d² unit vectors in d complex dimensions with pairwise equal inner products. Their existences in all dimensions d was conjectured by Zauner in 1999. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIC-POVM

yesterday, among the results released by the internal openAI model, the two-dimensional entanglement area law was shown for gapped ground states. coincidently, we released a new paper asking if magic could also host an area law for ground states, and what it would mean! arxiv.org/abs/2610.08727 1/n

Once again, if you are a senior researcher spreading doom to junior researchers, shut up shut up shut up. It’s your job to figure out a path forward, even in high uncertainty times. Come back when you have something constructive.
