Designing quantum router in IBM quantum computer
B. K. Behera, Tasnum Reza, Angad Gupta +1 more·Mar 17, 2018
Quantum router is an essential ingredient in a quantum network. Here, we propose a new quantum circuit for designing quantum router by using IBM’s five-qubit quantum computer. We design an equivalent quantum circuit, by means of single-qubit and two-...
Experimental Demonstration of Non-Destructive Discrimination of Arbitrary Set of Orthogonal Quantum States Using 5-qubit IBM Quantum Computer on Cloud
Ayan Majumder, Anil Kumar·Mar 16, 2018
A protocol for non-destructive descrimination of arbitrary set of orthogonal quantum states was proposed by V. S. Manu et al., using an algorithm based on quantum phase estimation. IBM Corporation has released a superconductivity based 5-qubit (5-qub...
Quality Attributes on Quantum Computing Platforms
B. Sodhi·Mar 15, 2018
As the practical Quantum Computing Platforms (QCPs) rapidly become a reality, it is desirable to harness their true potential in software applications. Thus it becomes important to determine the implications of QCPs for software architecture. In this...
Restoring Heisenberg scaling in noisy quantum metrology by monitoring the environment
F. Albarelli, M. Rossi, D. Tamascelli +1 more·Mar 15, 2018
We study quantum frequency estimation for N qubits subjected to independent Markovian noise, via strategies based on time-continuous monitoring of the environment. Both physical intuition and an extended convexity property of the quantum Fisher infor...
Quantum walks over a square lattice
Arkaprabha Ghosal, P. Deb·Mar 14, 2018
Quantum random walk finds application in efficient quantum algorithms as well as in quantum network theory. Here we study the mixing time of a discrete quantum walk over a square lattice in presence percolation and decoherence. We consider bit-flip a...

Y. Nam, Yuan Su, D. Maslov·Mar 13, 2018
The ability to implement the Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT) efficiently on a quantum computer facilitates the advantages offered by a variety of fundamental quantum algorithms, such as those for integer factoring, computing discrete logarithm over A...
Boosting Computational Power through Spatial Multiplexing in Quantum Reservoir Computing
K. Nakajima, K. Fujii, M. Negoro +2 more·Mar 12, 2018
Quantum reservoir computing provides a framework for exploiting the natural dynamics of quantum systems as a computational resource. It can implement real-time signal processing and solve temporal machine learning problems in general, which requires ...
A Hybrid Quantum-Classical Paradigm to Mitigate Embedding Costs in Quantum Annealing
A. Abbott, Cristian S. Calude, M. Dinneen +1 more·Mar 12, 2018
Despite rapid recent progress towards the development of quantum computers capable of providing computational advantages over classical computers, it seems likely that such computers will, initially at least, be required to run in a hybrid quantum-cl...

L. Cincio, Yiğit Subaşı, A. Sornborger +1 more·Mar 12, 2018
Short-depth algorithms are crucial for reducing computational error on near-term quantum computers, for which decoherence and gate infidelity remain important issues. Here we present a machine-learning approach for discovering such algorithms. We app...

We experimentally constructed an all-microwave scheme for the controlled-NOT (cNOT) gate between two superconducting transmon qubits in a three dimensional cavity. Our cNOT gate is based on the microwave-activated phase (MAP) gate, which requires an ...

We report a compact, scalable, quantum photonic integrated circuit realised by combining multiple, independent InGaAs/GaAs quantum-light-emitting-diodes (QLEDs) with a silicon oxynitride waveguide circuit. Each waveguide joining the circuit can then ...
Signature of a quantum dimensional transition in the spin- 12 antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on a square lattice and space reduction in the matrix product state
Lihua Wang, Kwang S. Kim·Mar 10, 2018
We study the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on an $\ensuremath{\infty}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}N$ square lattice for even $N$'s up to 14. Previously, the nonlinear sigma model perturbatively predicted that its spin-rot...
Simulation of Gaussian channels via teleportation and error correction of Gaussian states
S. Tserkis, Josephine Dias, T. Ralph·Mar 9, 2018
Gaussian channels are the typical way to model the decoherence introduced by the environment in continuous-variable quantum states. It is known that those channels can be simulated by a teleportation protocol using as a resource state either a maxima...
Long-lived quantum speedup based on plasmonic hot spot systems
Jun Ren, Tian Chen, Xiangdong Zhang·Mar 9, 2018
Long-lived quantum speedup serves as a fundamental component for quantum algorithms. The quantum walk is identified as an ideal scheme to realize the long-lived quantum speedup. However, one finds that the duration of quantum speedup is too short in ...
