Quantum-Enhanced Belief Propagation for LDPC Decoding

Abstract: Decoding low-density parity-check codes is critical in many current technologies, such as fifth-generation (5G) wireless networks and satellite communications. The belief propagation algorithm allows for fast decoding due to the low density of these codes. However, there is scope for improvement to this algorithm both in terms of its computational cost when decoding large […]

Real Variance-Based Variational Quantum Eigensolver for Non-Hermitian Matrices

Abstract: Non-Hermitian operators naturally arise in the description of open quantum systems, which exhibit features such as resonances and decay processes, where the associated eigenvalues are complex. Standard quantum algorithms, including the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE), are designed for Hermitian operators and are ineffective in recovering correct eigenvalues for non-Hermitian matrices. We present a systematic […]

Riemannian Optimization for Multi-Player Quantum Games on Product Unitary Manifolds

Abstract: Quantum game theory is an extension of classical game theory that uses quantum principles in game theory. The Eisert-Wilkens-Lewenstein (EWL) quantum game is an early example of the twoplayer classical Prisoner’s Dilemma transformed into a quantum Prisoner’s Dilemma. In the EWL game, the players choose pure quantum strategies represented by unitary matrices. This extension […]

Entanglement Distribution and Teleportation in Assisted and Scalable Quantum Access Networks

Abstract: We have investigated the entanglement distribution and quantum teleportation in quantum passive optical networks (QPONs), where an entangled state is distributed between the central node and multiple end users through lossy fibers and passive optical splitter/combiner. The entanglement degradation is quantified using logarithmic negativity, and teleportation fidelity both in non-assisted and assisted strategies. We […]

Rydberg Atom Electric Field Sensors as Linear Time-invariant Systems

Abstract: Over the past decade, Rydberg atom electric field sensors have been under investigation as potential alternatives or complements to conventional antenna-based receivers for select applications in RF communications, remote sensing, and precision metrology. To understand the potential utility of these devices for various use cases, it is crucial to develop models that accurately predict […]

Matrix Low-dimensional Qubit Casting Based Quantum Electromagnetic Transient Network Simulation Program

Abstract: In modern power systems, the integration of converter-interfaced generations requires the development of electromagnetic transient network simulation programs (EMTP) that can capture rapid fluctuations. However, as the power system scales, the EMTP’s computing complexity increases exponentially, leading to a curse of dimensionality that hinders its practical application. Facing this challenge, quantum computing offers a […]

Topological Quantum Compilation Using Mixed-Integer Programming

Abstract: Quantum computation offers the potential to solve certain problems with substantial speed advantages over classical computing, but its practical realization is hindered by significant challenges associated with error propagation and decoherence. Topological quantum computing addresses these issues by encoding qubits in particular two-dimensional topological condensed matter systems, effectively described by topological quantum field theories, […]

Variational Quantum Eigensolver: A Comparative Analysis of Classical and Quantum Optimizer Methods

Abstract: In this study, we investigated the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) application for the Ising model as a testbed model, in which we thoroughly delved into several optimizers, both classical and quantum, and analyzed the extent to which each of these methods would offer a benefit. We then investigated a new combinatorial optimization scheme, termed […]

Single Hole Spin Qubit Optimization in SOI Quantum Dots Via kk⋅pp Simulations and Perturbative Analysis

Abstract: Hole spin qubits in silicon nanostructures offer fast, all-electrical control through electric-dipole spin resonance (EDSR), yet their performance strongly depends on device geometry. In this work, optimization criteria of Rabi frequency of single-hole spin qubits in silicon-on-insulator (SOI) quantum dots are identified by combining electrostatic and kk⋅pp simulations with a perturbative model of the […]

Unified and Generalized Approach to Entanglement-Assisted Quantum Error Correction

Abstract: We introduce a framework for entanglement-assisted quantum error correcting codes that unifies the three original frameworks for such codes called entanglement-assisted quantum error correction, entanglement-assisted operator quantum error correction, and entanglement-assisted classical enhanced quantum error correction under a single umbrella. As a consequence, new types of entanglement-assisted codes are identified and constructed. The unification […]
