Abstract
As various quantum computing technologies continue to compete for quantum supremacy, several parameters have emerged as benchmarks for the quality of qubits. These include fidelity, coherence times, connectivity, and a few others. In this paper, we aim to study the importance of these parameters and their impact on quantum algorithms. We propose a realistic connectivity geometry and form quantum circuits for the Bernstein-Vazirani, QFT, and Grover Algorithms based on the limitations of the chosen geometry. We then simulate these algorithms using error models to study the impact of gate fidelity and coherence times on success of the algorithms. We report on the findings of our simulations and note the various benchmarking values which produce reliably successful results.
