Variational quantum evolution equation solver
F. Y. Leong, W. Ewe, Dax Enshan Koh·Apr 6, 2022
Variational quantum algorithms offer a promising new paradigm for solving partial differential equations on near-term quantum computers. Here, we propose a variational quantum algorithm for solving a general evolution equation through implicit time-s...
Optimization of Quantum Read-Only Memory Circuits
Koustubh Phalak, M. Alam, Abdullah Ash-Saki +2 more·Apr 6, 2022
Quantum computing is a rapidly expanding field with applications ranging from optimization all the way to complex machine learning tasks. Quantum memories, while lacking in practical quantum computers, have the potential to bring quantum advantage. I...
Post-Quantum Cryptography Algorithms Standardization and Performance Analysis
Manish Kumar·Apr 6, 2022
Quantum computer is no longer a hypothetical idea. It is the worlds most important technology and there is a race among countries to get supremacy in quantum technology. Its the technology that will reduce the computing time from years to hours or ev...
Quantum Approximate Counting for Markov Chains and Application to Collision Counting
Franccois Le Gall, Iu-Iong Ng·Apr 6, 2022
In this paper we show how to generalize the quantum approximate counting technique developed by Brassard, H{\o}yer and Tapp [ICALP 1998] to a more general setting: estimating the number of marked states of a Markov chain (a Markov chain can be seen a...
Robust multipartite entanglement in dirty topological wires
Luca Pezzè, Luca Lepori·Apr 5, 2022
Identifying and characterizing quantum phases of matter in the presence of long range correlations and/or spatial disorder is, generally, a challenging and relevant task. Here, we study a generalization of the Kiteav chain with variable-range pairing...
How much classical information is carried by a quantum state? An approach inspired by Kolmogorov complexity
D. Brogioli·Apr 5, 2022
In quantum mechanics, a state is an element of a Hilbert space whose dimension exponentially grows with the increase of the number of par-ticles (or qubits, in quantum computing). The vague question “is this huge Hilbert space really there?” has been...
Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detectors and effect of accumulation and unsteady releases of excess energy in materials
S. Pereverzev, G. Carosi, Viacheslav Li·Apr 5, 2022
Universal fault-tolerant quantum computers, which promise to revolutionize computing, are currently limited by excessive noise in their constituent superconducting qubits. Determining the dominant sources of this excess noise will lead to a clearer u...
A Stabilizer Framework for the Contextual Subspace Variational Quantum Eigensolver and the Noncontextual Projection Ansatz
Tim Weaving, Alexis Ralli, William M. Kirby +3 more·Apr 5, 2022
Quantum chemistry is a promising application for noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. However, quantum computers have thus far not succeeded in providing solutions to problems of real scientific significance, with algorithmic advances bei...
High-Fidelity Quantum Control by Polychromatic Pulse Trains.
S. Ivanov, B. Torosov, N. Vitanov·Apr 5, 2022
We introduce a quantum control technique using polychromatic pulse trains, consisting of pulses with different carrier frequencies, i.e., different detunings with respect to the qubit transition frequency. We derive numerous polychromatic pulse train...
Quantum-noise-limited microwave amplification using a graphene Josephson junction
Joydip Sarkar, K. Salunkhe, S. Mandal +7 more·Apr 5, 2022
Josephson junctions (JJs) and their tunable properties, including their nonlinearities, play an important role in superconducting qubits and amplifiers. JJs together with the circuit quantum electrodynamics architecture form many key components of qu...

L. F. Quezada, Guo-Hua Sun, S. Dong·Apr 5, 2022
In this work a quantum sorting algorithm with adaptable requirements of memory and circuit depth is introduced, and is used to develop a new quantum version of the classical machine learning algorithm known as k‐nearest neighbors (k‐NN). Both the eff...

M. C. Braun, T. Decker, N. Hegemann +1 more·Apr 4, 2022
We show how phase and amplitude estimation algorithms can be parallelized. This can reduce the gate depth of the quantum circuits to that of a single phase kickback of an operator with a small overhead. Further, we show that for quantum amplitude est...
