Terminal-Register Certification for Finite-Measurement Learning of Multiscale Quantum States

Bhvain Makwana, Kashyap Patel, Manjunath Joshi, Jaideep Mulherkar

Structured quantum-state learning not only depends on an expressive ansatz but also on an operational certificate that stays meaningful with finite measurements and imperfect implementation. We study pure one dimensional states learning by an inverse binary multiscale entanglement renormalization ansatz (MERA). In the learning procedure, the qubits removed during coarse graining are controlled coherently and measured together at the terminal register. We confirm that an ideal sequential and terminal measurement schedule delivers the same complete bit string distribution under matched causal operations, while normalized postselection can amplify perturbations inversely with prefix acceptance. A noise aware theorem introduces an individual calibrated total variation implementation budget to the finite shot certificate. The protocol is estimated on an open boundary transverse field Ising ground state. A frozen 8-qubit schedule using $560$ million simulated training measurements per run achieves fidelity above $0.99$ in all $60$ held-out runs, with a mean fidelity of $0.996886$. 1080 circuit-noise cells and 6480 confidence-coverage rows are covered by fixed-circuit robustness…
