Tunable coupling between a superconducting resonator and an artificial atom
Qi-Kai He, Duan-Lu Zhou·May 28, 2018
Abstract Coherent manipulation of a quantum system is one of the main themes in current physics researches. In this work, we design a circuit QED system with a tunable coupling between an artificial atom and a superconducting resonator while keeping ...
Hybrid Programming for Near-Term Quantum Computing Systems
A. McCaskey, E. Dumitrescu, D. Liakh +1 more·May 23, 2018
Recent computations involving quantum processing units (QPUs)have demonstrated a series of challenges inherent to hybrid classical-quantum programming, compilation, execution, and verification and validation. Despite considerable progress, system-lev...
A theory of single-shot error correction for adversarial noise
E. Campbell·May 23, 2018
Single-shot error correction is a technique for correcting physical errors using only a single round of noisy check measurements, such that any residual noise affects a small number of qubits. We propose a general theory of single-shot error correcti...
Quantum Error Correction Decoheres Noise.
Stefanie J. Beale, Joel J. Wallman, Mauricio Gutiérrez +2 more·May 22, 2018
Typical studies of quantum error correction assume probabilistic Pauli noise, largely because it is relatively easy to analyze and simulate. Consequently, the effective logical noise due to physically realistic coherent errors is relatively unknown. ...
Quantum probe of an on-chip broadband interferometer for quantum microwave photonics
P. Eder, T. Ramos, J. Goetz +11 more·May 22, 2018
Quantum microwave photonics aims at generating, routing, and manipulating propagating quantum microwave fields in the spirit of optical photonics. To this end, the strong nonlinearities of superconducting quantum circuits can be used to either improv...
Performance of quantum error correction with coherent errors
E. Huang, A. Doherty, S. Flammia·May 21, 2018
We compare the performance of quantum error correcting codes when memory errors are unitary with the more familiar case of dephasing noise. For a wide range of codes we analytically compute the effective logical channel that results when the error co...
Quantum Adiabatic Evolution for Global Optimization in Big Data
Sahil Imtiyaz·May 16, 2018
Big Data is characterized by Volume, Velocity, Veracity and Complexity. The interaction between this huge data is complex with an associated free will having dynamic and non linear nature. We reduced big data based on its characteristics, conceptuall...
Superconducting cavity electro-optics: A platform for coherent photon conversion between superconducting and photonic circuits
Linran Fan, Chang-ling Zou, Risheng Cheng +5 more·May 11, 2018
Electro-optical chips promise a quantum link between electronic and optical circuits. Leveraging the quantum information-processing ability of superconducting circuits and long-distance distribution ability of optical photons promises the realization...
Error mitigation extends the computational reach of a noisy quantum processor
A. Kandala, K. Temme, A. Córcoles +3 more·May 11, 2018
Quantum computation, a paradigm of computing that is completely different from classical methods, benefits from theoretically proved speed-ups for certain problems and can be used to study the properties of quantum systems1. Yet, because of the inher...
Universal, high-fidelity quantum gates based on superadiabatic, geometric phases on a solid-state spin-qubit at room temperature
Felix Kleißler, A. Lazariev, Silvia Arroyo-Camejo·Apr 29, 2018
Geometric phases and holonomies are a promising resource for the realization of high-fidelity quantum operations in noisy devices, due to their intrinsic fault-tolerance against parametric noise. However, for a long time their practical use in quantu...
Open-system quantum error correction
Yink Loong Len, H. Ng·Apr 25, 2018
We study the performance of quantum error correction (QEC) on a system undergoing open-system (OS) dynamics. The noise on the system originates from a joint quantum channel on the system-bath composite, a framework that includes and interpolates betw...

Arne Hollmann, D. Jirovec, M. Kucharski +3 more·Apr 25, 2018
Solid-state qubit manipulation and read-out fidelities are reaching fault-tolerance, but quantum error correction requires millions of physical qubits and therefore a scalable quantum computer architecture. To solve signal-line bandwidth and fan-out ...

Yuan Xu, W. Cai, Y. Ma +8 more·Apr 20, 2018
Geometric phases are noise resilient, and thus provide a robust way towards high-fidelity quantum manipulation. Here we experimentally demonstrate arbitrary nonadiabatic holonomic single-qubit quantum gates for both a superconducting transmon qubit a...
Accounting for errors in quantum algorithms via individual error reduction
M. Otten, S. Gray·Apr 19, 2018
We discuss a surprisingly simple scheme for accounting (and removal) of error in observables determined from quantum algorithms. A correction to the value of the observable is calculated by first measuring the observable with all error sources active...

A. Gheorghiu, M. Hoban, E. Kashefi·Apr 17, 2018
With experimental quantum computing technologies now in their infancy, the search for efficient means of testing the correctness of these quantum computations is becoming more pressing. An approach to the verification of quantum computation within th...
