Abstract: With the rapid advancement of quantum computing, quantum compilation has become a crucial layer connecting high-level algorithms with physical hardware. In quantum cloud computing, compilation is performed on the cloud platforms, which expose user circuits to potential risks, such as structural leakage and output predictability. To address these issues, we propose the encrypted-state quantum […]
Abstract: Currently, the development of quantum computers is active; however, large-scale machines remain limited and noisy. Furthermore, such quantum computers do not allow direct access to state vectors, posing challenges for quantum algorithm development. Quantum circuit simulators on classical computers offer a solution, with decision diagram (DD)-based simulators being particularly memory-efficient for representing quantum states. […]
Abstract: Reaching fault-tolerant quantum computation relies on the successful implementation of non-Clifford circuits with quantum error correction (QEC). In QEC, quantum gates and measurements encode quantum information into an error-protected Hilbert space, while classical processing decodes the measurements into logical errors. QEC non-Clifford gates pose the greatest computation challenge from the classical controller’s perspective, as […]
Abstract: Given that quantum error correction processes are unreliable, an efficient error syndrome extraction circuit should use fewer ancillary qubits, quantum gates, and measurements while maintaining low circuit depth, to minimize the circuit area, roughly defined as the product of circuit depth and the number of physical qubits. We propose to design parallel flagged syndrome […]
Complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor (CMOS)-based computing promises drastic improvement in performance at extremely low temperatures (e.g., 77 K, 10 K). The field of extremely low temperature CMOS-environment-based computing holds the promise of delivering remarkable enhancements in both performance and power consumption. Static random access memory (SRAM) plays a major role in determining the performance and efficiency of […]
Quantum processors are now able to run quantum circuits that are infeasible to simulate classically, creating a need for benchmarks that assess a quantum processor’s rate of errors when running these circuits. Here, we introduce a general technique for creating efficient benchmarks from any set of quantum computations, specified by unitary circuits. Our benchmarks assess […]
