Boosting on the shoulders of giants in quantum device calibration
A. Wozniakowski, Jayne Thompson, M. Gu +1 more·May 13, 2020
Traditional machine learning applications, such as optical character recognition, arose from the inability to explicitly program a computer to perform a routine task. In this context, learning algorithms usually derive a model exclusively from the ev...
Benchmarking Coherent Errors in Controlled-Phase Gates due to Spectator Qubits
S. Krinner, S. Lazăr, A. Remm +7 more·May 12, 2020
A major challenge in operating multi-qubit quantum processors is to mitigate multi-qubit coherent errors. For superconducting circuits, besides crosstalk originating from imperfect isolation of control lines, dispersive coupling between qubits is a m...
An Economic Model for Quantum Key-Recovery Attacks against Ideal Ciphers
B. Harsha, Jeremiah Blocki·May 12, 2020
It has been established that quantum algorithms can solve several key cryptographic problems more efficiently than classical computers. As progress continues in the field of quantum computing it is important to understand the risks they pose to deplo...
Error analysis of bit-flip qubits under random telegraph noise for low and high temperature measurement application
Winston W. Wang, S. Prabhakar·May 12, 2020
Achieving small error for qubit gate operations under random telegraph noise (RTN) is of great interest for potential applications in quantum computing and quantum error correction. I calculate the error generated in the qubit driven by $\pi$, CORPSE...
Benchmarking the noise sensitivity of different parametric two-qubit gates in a single superconducting quantum computing platform
M. Ganzhorn, G. Salis, D. Egger +8 more·May 12, 2020
The possibility to utilize different types of two-qubit gates on a single quantum computing platform adds flexibility in the decomposition of quantum algorithms. A larger hardware-native gate set may decrease the number of required gates, provided th...
Bulk locality in the AdS/CFT correspondence
S. Terashima·May 12, 2020
In this paper, we study the bulk local states in AdS/CFT correspondence in the large $N$ limit using the formula explicitly relating the bulk local operators and the CFT local operators. We identify the bulk local state in terms of CFT local states a...
The infinite-dimensional HaPPY code: entanglement wedge reconstruction and dynamics
Elliott Gesteau, M. Kang·May 12, 2020
We construct an infinite-dimensional analog of the HaPPY code as a growing series of stabilizer codes defined respective to their Hilbert spaces. The Hilbert spaces are related by isometric maps, which we define explicitly. We construct a Hamiltonian...
Cost-optimal single-qubit gate synthesis in the Clifford hierarchy
Gary J. Mooney, C. Hill, L. Hollenberg·May 12, 2020
For universal quantum computation, a major challenge to overcome for practical implementation is the large amount of resources required for fault-tolerant quantum information processing. An important aspect is implementing arbitrary unitary operators...
Intrinsic sign problem in fermionic and bosonic chiral topological matter
O. Golan, Adam Smith, Z. Ringel·May 12, 2020
The infamous sign problem leads to an exponential complexity in Monte Carlo simulations of generic many-body quantum systems. Nevertheless, many phases of matter are known to admit a sign-problem-free representative, allowing efficient simulations on...
Measurement Cost of Metric-Aware Variational Quantum Algorithms
Barnaby van Straaten, Bálint Koczor·May 11, 2020
Variational quantum algorithms are promising tools for near-term quantum computers as their shallow circuits are robust to experimental imperfections. Their practical applicability, however, strongly depends on how many times their circuits need to b...

N. Lacroix, C. Hellings, C. K. Andersen +10 more·May 11, 2020
Variational quantum algorithms are believed to be promising for solving computationally hard problems and are often comprised of repeated layers of quantum gates. An example thereof is the quantum approximate optimization algorithm (QAOA), an approac...
Efficient Optimization of Cutoffs in Quantum Repeater Chains
Boxi Li, T. Coopmans, David Elkouss·May 11, 2020
Quantum communication enables the implementation of tasks that are unachievable with classical resources. However, losses on the communication channel preclude the direct long-distance transmission of quantum information in many relevant scenarios. I...
Simpler Proofs of Quantumness
Zvika Brakerski, Venkata Koppula, U. Vazirani +1 more·May 11, 2020
A proof of quantumness is a method for provably demonstrating (to a classical verifier) that a quantum device can perform computational tasks that a classical device with comparable resources cannot. Providing a proof of quantumness is the first step...
Dynamics of local quantum uncertainty among cavity–reservoir qubits
Mazhar N. Ali·May 11, 2020
We study dynamics of local quantum uncertainty (LQU) for a system of two cavities and two reservoirs. In the start, the cavities treated as two qubits are quantum correlated with each other, whereas reservoirs are neither correlated with each other n...
Quantum splines for non-linear approximations
A. Macaluso, L. Clissa, Stefano Lodi +1 more·May 11, 2020
Quantum Computing offers a new paradigm for efficient computing and many AI applications could benefit from its potential boost in performance. However, the main limitation is the constraint to linear operations that hampers the representation of com...

The research community has been actively working on the realization of quantum computer. But the large scale commercial quantum computers are not a reality yet quantum computing field has become richer by day with the advent of algorithms and the ave...
Efficient Quantum Circuits for Accurate State Preparation of Smooth, Differentiable Functions
Adam Holmes, A. Y. Matsuura·May 9, 2020
Effective quantum computation relies upon making good use of the exponential information capacity of a quantum machine. A large barrier to designing quantum algorithms for execution on real quantum machines is that, in general, it is intractably diff...
