Abstract
Bosonic quantum systems offer the hardware-efficient construction of error detection/error correction codes by using the infinitely large Hilbert space. However, due to the encoding, arbitrary gate rotations usually require magic state teleportation or complicated optimized pulse sequences involving an ancilla qubit. Here, we propose a simple and hardware-efficient bosonic 02 error detection code that allows for the implementation of arbitrary X and Z rotations and a controlled phase gate by using a Kerr nonlinear resonator. Our code can detect a single photon loss, and we observe significant error suppression by simulating the frequently used hardware-efficient ansatz quantum circuit in near-term quantum computing.
