    Abstract: An apparatus includes an optical circuit having at least one reconfigurable beamsplitter and is configured to receive a plurality of input optical modes in a Gaussian state and generate a plurality of output optical modes. The apparatus also includes at least one detector optically coupled with the optical circuit and configured to perform a non-Gaussian measurement of a first output optical mode from the plurality of output optical modes. The non-Gaussian measurement of the first output optical mode is configured to cause a second output optical mode from the plurality of output optical modes to be in a first non-Gaussian state. The apparatus also includes a controller operatively coupled to the optical circuit and configured to change a setting of the at least one reconfigurable beamsplitter to cause the second output optical mode from the plurality of output optical modes to be in a second non-Gaussian state.
