A Note on Approximating the Symplectic Spectrum

The symplectic eigenvalues play a significant role in finite mode quantum information theory, and Williamson normal form proves to be a valuable tool in this area. Understanding the symplectic spectrum of a Gaussian Covariance Operator is a crucial task. Recently, an infinite-dimensional analogue of Williamson Normal form was discovered, which has been instrumental in studying infinite mode Gaussian quantum states. However, most existing results pertain to finite-dimensional operators, leaving a dearth of literature in the infinite-dimensional context. The focus of this article is on employing approximation techniques to estimate the symplectic spectrum of certain infinite-dimensional operators. These techniques are well-suited for a particular class of operators, including specific types of infinite mode Gaussian Covariance Operators. Our approach involves computing the Williamson Normal form and deriving bounds for the symplectic spectrum of these operators. As a practical application, we explicitly compute the symplectic spectrum of Gaussian Covariance Operators. Through this research, we aim to contribute to the understanding of symplectic eigenvalues in the context of infinite-dimensional operators, opening new avenues for exploration in quantum information theory and related fields.
