An architectural analysis for a fault-tolerant quantum computer is thoroughly presented: With 1,000 superconducting circuit components, problems currently intractable classical computers could be solved.
Quantum error correction with erasure qubits promises significant advantages over standard due to favorable thresholds for errors. To realize this advantage in practice requires a qubit which nearly all errors are such errors, and the ability check without dephasing qubit. We demonstrate that “dual-rail qubit” consisting of pair resonantly coupled transmons can form highly coherent qubit, where transmon <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML"...
To solve problems of practical importance1,2, quantum computers probably need to incorporate error correction, in which a logical qubit is redundantly encoded many noisy physical qubits3–5. The large physical-qubit overhead associated with correction motivates the search for more hardware-efficient approaches6–18. Here, using superconducting circuit19, we realize memory formed from concatenation bosonic cat qubits an outer repetition code distance d = 5 (ref. 10). A stabilizing circuit...
Hybrid quantum systems in which acoustic resonators couple to superconducting qubits are promising information platforms. High quality factors and small mode volumes make modes ideal memories, while the qubit-phonon coupling enables initialization manipulation of states. We present a scheme for computing with multimode systems, based on this scheme, propose hardware-efficient implementation random access memory (QRAM). Quantum is stored high-Q phonon modes, couplings between engineered by...
Quantum random access memory (QRAM)—memory which stores classical data but allows queries to be performed in superposition—is required for the implementation of numerous quantum algorithms. While naive implementations QRAM are highly susceptible decoherence and hence not scalable, it has been argued that bucket-brigade architecture [Giovannetti et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 100, 160501 (2008)] is resilient noise, with infidelity a query scaling only logarithmically size. In prior analyses,...
The anticipated applications of quantum computers span across science and industry, ranging from chemistry many-body physics to optimization, finance, machine learning. Proposed solutions in these areas typically combine multiple algorithmic primitives into an overall algorithm, which must then incorporate the methods error correction fault tolerance be implemented correctly on hardware. As such, it can difficult assess how much a particular application benefits computing, as various...
In a recent publication [S. Groth et al., Phys. Rev. B 93, 085102 (2016)], we have shown that the combination of two complementary quantum Monte Carlo approaches, namely configuration path integral [T. Schoof Lett. 115, 130402 (2015)] and permutation blocking Dornheim New J. 17, 073017 (2015)], allows for accurate computation thermodynamic properties spin-polarized uniform electron gas over wide range temperatures densities without fixed-node approximation. present work, extend this concept...
We draw analogies between protected superconducting qubits and bosonic by studying the fluxonium Hamiltonian in its Fock basis. The mean-field phase diagram of (at sweet spot) is identified, with a region parameter space that characterized $\mathbb{Z}_2$-symmetry-broken ground states. In heavy limit, these states are well approximated squeezed coherent basis (corresponding to persistent current definite flux but indefinite charge), simple expressions provided for them terms circuit...
Cat qubits, a type of bosonic qubit encoded in harmonic oscillator, can exhibit an exponential noise bias against bit-flip errors with increasing mean photon number. Here, we focus on cat qubits stabilized by two-photon dissipation, where pairs photons are added and removed from oscillator auxiliary, lossy buffer mode. This process requires large loss rate strong nonlinearities the mode that must not degrade coherence linearity oscillator. In this work, show how to overcome challenge...

Qubit measurements are central to quantum information processing. In the field of superconducting qubits, standard readout techniques not only limited by signal-to-noise ratio, but also state relaxation during measurement. this work, we demonstrate that limitation due can be suppressed using many-level Hilbert space circuits: in a multilevel encoding, measurement is corrupted when multiple errors occur. Employing technique, show directly resolve transmon gate at level one part $10^3.$...
Operating on the principles of quantum mechanics, algorithms hold promise for solving problems that are beyond reach best-available classical algorithms. An integral part realizing such speedup is implementation queries, which read data into forms computers can process. Quantum random access memory (QRAM) a promising architecture queries. However, implementing QRAM in practice poses significant challenges, including query latency, capacity and fault-tolerance.
Single-photon detectors are ubiquitous and integral components of photonic quantum cryptography, communication, computation. Many applications, however, require not only detecting the presence any photons, but distinguishing number present with a single shot. Here, we implement single-shot, high-fidelity photon number-resolving detector up to 15 microwave photons in cavity-qubit circuit QED platform. This functions by measuring series generalized parity operators which make bits binary...
High-fidelity qubit measurements play a crucial role in quantum computation, communication, and metrology. In recent experiments, it has been shown that readout fidelity may be improved by performing repeated non-demolition (QND) readouts of qubit's state through an ancilla. For encoded two-level system, the such schemes is limited fact single error can destroy information qubit. On other hand, if bosonic system used, this fundamental limit could overcome utilizing higher levels still leaves...
Icosahedral quasicrystals (IQCs) with extremely high degrees of translational order have been produced in the laboratory and found naturally occurring minerals, yet questions remain about how IQCs form. In particular, fundamental question locally determined additions to a growing cluster can lead intricate long-range correlations remains open. answer this question, we developed an algorithm that is capable producing perfectly ordered IQC, relies exclusively on local rules for sequential,...
Efficient suppression of errors without full error correction is crucial for applications with noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices. Error mitigation allows us to suppress in extracting expectation values the need any code, but its are limited estimating values, and cannot provide high-fidelity operations acting on arbitrary states. To address this challenge, we propose use filtration (EF) gate-based computation, as a practical scheme resorting correction. The result general-purpose...
