Quantum Algorithms for the Sylvester Denumerant and the Numerical Semigroup Membership Problem
J. Ossorio-Castillo, José M. Tornero·Feb 8, 2024
Two quantum algorithms are presented, which tackle well--known problems in the context of numerical semigroups: the numerical semigroup membership problem (NSMP) and the Sylvester denumerant problem (SDP).
Optimal probe states for single-mode quantum target detection in arbitrary object reflectivity
Wei-Ming Chen, Pin-Ju Tsai·Feb 8, 2024
Quantum target detection (QTD) utilizes nonclassical resources to enable radar-like detection for identifying reflecting objects in challenging environments, surpassing classical methods. To fully leverage the quantum advantage in QTD, determining th...
Transfer learning of optimal QAOA parameters in combinatorial optimization
J. A. Montañez-Barrera, D. Willsch, K. Michielsen·Feb 8, 2024
Solving combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) is a promising application of quantum computation, with the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA) being one of the most studied quantum algorithms for solving them. However, multiple fact...
Complexity of graph-state preparation by Clifford circuits
Soh Kumabe, R. Mori, Y. Yoshimura·Feb 8, 2024
In this work, we study the complexity of graph-state preparation. We consider general quantum algorithms consisting of Clifford operations acting on at most two qubits for graph-state preparations. We define the CZ-complexity of a graph state $|G\ran...
Mixed-integer linear programming solver using Benders decomposition assisted by a neutral-atom quantum processor
M. Naghmouchi, W. Coelho·Feb 8, 2024
This paper presents a new hybrid classical-quantum approach to solve Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) using neutral atom quantum computations. We apply Benders decomposition (BD) to segment MILPs into a master problem (MP) and a subproblem (SP...
The Fate of Entanglement
Gilles Parez, William Witczak-Krempa·Feb 7, 2024
Quantum entanglement manifests itself in non-local correlations between the constituents of a system. In its simplest realization, a measurement on one subsystem is affected by a prior measurement on its partner, irrespective of their separation. For...
Using Bifluxon Tunneling to Protect the Fluxonium Qubit
Waël Ardati, S'ebastien L'eger, Shelender Kumar +8 more·Feb 7, 2024
Encoding quantum information in quantum states with disjoint wave-function support and noise-insensitive energies is the key behind the idea of qubit protection. While fully protected qubits are expected to offer exponential protection against both e...
Weight-Reduced Stabilizer Codes with Lower Overhead
Eric Sabo, Lane G. Gunderman, Benjamin Ide +2 more·Feb 7, 2024
Stabilizer codes are the most widely studied class of quantum error-correcting codes and form the basis of most proposals for a fault-tolerant quantum computer. A stabilizer code is defined by a set of parity-check operators, which are measured in or...
Distinguishing pure and thermal states by Landauer’s principle in open systems
Hao Xu·Feb 7, 2024
Starting from Polchinski’s thought experiment on how to distinguish between pure and thermal states, we construct a specific system to study the interaction between qubit and cavity quantum field theory (QFT) in order to provide a more operational po...
Quantum circuit for multi-qubit Toffoli gate with optimal resource
Junhong Nie, Wei Zi, Xiaoming Sun·Feb 7, 2024
Resource consumption is an important issue in quantum information processing, particularly during the present NISQ era. In this paper, we investigate resource optimization of implementing multiple controlled operations, which are fundamental building...
Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution with key rates far above the PLOB bound
A. Ray, Boris Škorić·Feb 7, 2024
Continuous-Variable Quantum Key Distribution (CVQKD) at large distances has such high noise levels that the error-correcting code must have very low rate. In this regime it becomes feasible to implement random-codebook error correction, which is know...

The number of excitations in a large quantum system (harmonic oscillator or qudit) can be measured in a quantum nondemolition manner using a dispersively coupled qubit. It typically requires a series of qubit pulses that encode various binary questio...
Quantum Tensor-Product Decomposition from Choi-State Tomography
Refik Mansuroglu, Arsalan Adil, Michael J. Hartmann +2 more·Feb 7, 2024
The Schmidt decomposition is the go-to tool for measuring bipartite entanglement of pure quantum states. Similarly, it is possible to study the entangling features of a quantum operation using its operator-Schmidt or tensor-product decomposition. Whi...
