Abstract: The Boolean matching problem via NP-equivalence requires determining whether two Boolean functions are equivalent or not up to a permutation and negation of the input binary variables. Its solution is a fundamental step in the electronic design automation (EDA) tool chains commonly used for digital circuit design. In fact, the library-mapping step of an […]
Abstract: The discrete logarithm problem (DLP) over finite fields, commonly used in classical cryptography, has no known polynomial-time algorithm on classical computers. However, Shor has provided its polynomial-time algorithm on quantum computers. Nevertheless, there are only few examples simulating quantum circuits that operate on general pairs of modulo p and order q. In this article, […]
Abstract: In this article, we present a novel approach for implementing pulse-efficient SU(4) gates on cross resonance (CR)-based superconducting quantum devices. Our method introduces a parameterized unitary derived from the CR-Hamiltonian propagator, which accounts for ZZ-interactions. Leveraging the Weyl chamber’s geometric structure, we successfully realize a continuous two-qubit basis gate, RZZ(θ), as an echo-free pulse […]
Abstract: The rapidly growing number of qubits in semiconductor quantum computers requires a scalable control interface, including the efficient generation of dc bias voltages for gate electrodes. To avoid unrealistically complex wiring between any room-temperature electronics and the cryogenic qubits, this article presents an integrated cryogenic solution for the bias-voltage generation and distribution for large-scale […]
Abstract: Radio frequency pulses are preponderant for the control of quantum bits and the execution of operations in quantum computers. The ability to fine-tune key pulse parameters, such as time-dependent amplitude, phase, and frequency, is essential to achieve maximal gate fidelity and mitigate errors. As systems increase in scale, a larger proportion of the control […]
Abstract: Unlike most classical algorithms that take an input and give the solution directly as an output, quantum algorithms produce a quantum circuit that works as an indirect solution to computationally hard problems. In the full quantum computing workflow, most data processing remains in the classical domain except for running the quantum circuit in the […]
Abstract: Expressibility is a crucial factor of a parameterized quantum circuit (PQC). In the context of variational-quantum-algorithm-based quantum machine learning (QML), a QML model composed of a highly expressible PQC and a sufficient number of qubits is theoretically capable of approximating any arbitrary continuous function. While much research has explored the relationship between expressibility and […]
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 […]
Abstract: While quantum computing technologies are evolving toward achieving full maturity, hybrid algorithms, such as variational quantum computing, are already emerging as valid candidates to solve practical problems in fields, such as chemistry and operations research. This situation calls for a tighter and better integration of classical and quantum computing infrastructures to improve efficiency and […]
Building large-scale quantum computers, essential to demonstrating quantum advantage, is a key challenge. Quantum networks can help address this challenge by enabling the construction of large, robust, and more capable quantum computing platforms by connecting smaller quantum computers. Moreover, unlike classical systems, quantum networks can enable fully secured long-distance communication. Thus, quantum networks lie at […]
