Abstract

Quantum coherence is a useful resource that is consumed to accomplish several tasks that classical devices are hard to fulfill. Particularly, it is considered to be the origin of quantum speedup for many computational algorithms. In this work, we interpret the computational time cost of boson sampling with partially distinguishable photons from the perspective of coherence resource theory. With incoherent operations that preserve the diagonal elements of quantum states up to permutation, which we name permuted genuinely incoherent operation, we present some evidence that the decrease of coherence corresponds to a computationally less complex system of partially distinguishable boson sampling. Our result shows that coherence is one of crucial resources for the computational time cost of boson sampling. We expect our work presents an insight to understand the quantum complexity of the linear optical network system.

Other crucial classes of incoherent operations are physical incoherent operations (PIO) [29, 30], dephasing-covariant incoherent operations (DIO) [29, 30], and translationally-invariant operations (TIO) [3134].

The speakable resources are independent of the physical encoding, i.e., all basis are equivalent, while the unspeakable depend on the specific degrees of freedom. For a more detailed explanation, see Ref. [15, 32].
 
3
This can be compared to the coherence theory of wave–particle duality in multi-slit experiments [2123, 41]. These researches showed that the interference phenomena (wave-like property) of a quanton through a multi-slit path increases as the degree of coherence increase, which is analogous to our case with multimode linear optical network.
