Williamson majorization theory of fermionic non-Gaussianity

原始摘要(英文原文)· Original abstract
Pure-state entanglement rests on a single algebraic backbone: majorization of the Schmidt spectrum governs state conversion under local operations and classical communication, and constrains entanglement monotones. Here we establish a corresponding majorization law for fermionic non-Gaussianity, the resource that elevates free fermions to universal quantum computation. Under any fermionic Gaussian protocol with pure state outcomes, the Williamson spectrum of a pure state's Majorana covariance matrix is weakly majorized by its ensemble average. This spectral law mirrors that of entanglement theory. It turns computable non-Gaussianity quantifiers such as fermionic antiflatness and occupation entropies into strong monotones for fermionic non-Gaussianity, and delivers necessary conditions and converse bounds on state conversion under Gaussian protocols. When fermion parity is conserved, no catalyst can remove a majorization obstruction---unless it carries parity coherence---and asymptotic interconversion is irreversible already for pure states. All relevant quantities are accessible from two-point Majorana correlators, turning the theory developed here into experimentally observable properties of quantum matter, testable on present-day quantum devices.
