Abstract
Heat-bath algorithmic cooling provides algorithmic ways to improve the purity of quantum states. These techniques are complex iterative processes that change from each iteration to the next and this poses a significant challenge to implementing these algorithms. Here, we introduce a new technique that on a fundamental level, shows that it is possible to do algorithmic cooling and even reach the cooling limit without any knowledge of the state and using only a single fixed operation, and on a practical level, presents a more feasible and robust alternative for implementing heat-bath algorithmic cooling. We also show that our new technique converges to the asymptotic state of heat-bath algorithmic cooling and that the cooling algorithm can be efficiently implemented; however, the saturation could require exponentially many iterations and remains impractical. This brings heat-bath algorithmic cooling to the realm of feasibility and makes it a viable option for realistic application in quantum technologies.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
