Terminology
Abstract
Parity superselection forbids direct measurement of odd Majorana observables. We learn time-independent, parity-covariant, k-mode-local Lindbladians on m modes using even preparations and measurements with uninterrupted short-time evolution. Internal markers turn odd probes into even observables, and pair measurements among three separated markers calibrate their dynamical contributions. Signed Fierz inversion recovers canonical coefficients, while semidefinite fitting yields a valid generator. For finite-range models on known bounded-degree graphs with suitable marker access and a supplied weighted-strength bound α, entrywise error epsilon is achieved using (α 2 epsilon-2 (m/δ)) samples, without external modes or known nonzero coefficient locations. Recovery to diamond-norm error epsilon costs an additional factor m squared, matching lower bounds for short-time experiments on fresh systems up to logarithmic and fixed geometric factors. Without a supplied graph, one idle ancillary mode per system mode and potentially nonlocal pair operations give total absolute coefficient error at most epsilon per mode using k(α squared d 2m k/2 epsilon-2 (m/δ)) samples, under a supplied approximate coefficient-degree bound d and controlled weak-coefficient tails. All guarantees hold with probability at least 1-δ. For geometric models, fixed-support even observables can be predicted with logarithmic system-size sample complexity at fixed time and accuracy. We also give finite-volume and exponential-tail extensions.
