Tech Note T22: Bounding sum of operators
Tech Note T22: Bounding sum of operators

Here, I prove Lemma 3.3 of Watrous (2018) in some detail and point out the neat technique used to cast a sum of operators as a product of operators in a larger, augmenting space, which mixes quantum states and amplitudes. All references in this section refer to Watrous (2018).

Tech Note T21: Estimating observables from sampled bit strings
Tech Note T21: Estimating observables from sampled bit strings

Given the sampling error, how close to true is our estimate of the derived statistic from the bitstrings? How does the sampling error in the bitstrings propagate through the computation? How many M shots should an experimentalist run to obtain a certain confidence?
