title = "Quantum-to-classical transition in many-body bosonic interference",
abstract = " Bosonic many-body systems are prominent candidates for a quantum advantage demonstration, with the most popular approaches being either a quantum simulation beyond the reach of current classical computers, or a demonstration of boson sampling. It is a crucial open problem to understand how resilient such quantum advantage demonstrations are to imperfections such as boson loss and particle distinguishability. We partially solve this problem by showing that imperfect multi-boson interference can be efficiently approximated as ideal interference of groups of smaller number of bosons, where the other particles interfere classically. Crucially, the number of bosons undergoing interference in our approxmation only depends on the level of imperfections, but is independent of the actual number of particles. This allows us to construct a simple but stringent benchmark for comparing many-body bosonic technological platforms. ",
