We show that a CUP-set constitutes a simple 'fingerprint' of a physical theory, and that incompatibility can be studied through them. We derive information-disturbance constraints on quantum CUP-sets that encode both the no-cloning/broadcasting and no-hiding theorems of quantum theory. We then develop randomised benchmarking protocols that efficiently estimate quantum CUP-sets and provide simulations using IBMQ of the simplest instance. Finally, we discuss ways in which CUP-sets and quantum no-go theorems could provide additional information to benchmark quantum devices. |
