Extension of Clifford Data Regression Methods for Quantum Error Mitigation

Abstract: To address the challenge posed by noise in real quantum devices, quantum error mitigation techniques play a crucial role. These techniques are resource-efficient, making them suitable for implementation in noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices, unlike the more resource-intensive quantum error correction codes. A notable example of such a technique is Clifford Data Regression, which employs […]

Explaining Robust Quantum Metrology by Counting Codewords

Abstract: Quantum sensing holds great promise for high-precision magnetic field measurements. However, its performance is significantly limited by noise. The investigation of active quantum error correction to address this noise led to the Hamiltonian-not-in-Lindblad-span (HNLS) condition. This states that the Heisenberg scaling is achievable if and only if the signal Hamiltonian is orthogonal to the […]

Optimal Allocation of Pauli Measurements for Low-Rank Quantum State Tomography

Abstract: The process of reconstructing quantum states from experimental measurements, accomplished through quantum state tomography (QST), plays a crucial role in verifying and benchmarking quantum devices. A key challenge of QST is to find out how the accuracy of the reconstruction depends on the number of state copies used in the measurements. When multiple measurement […]

Quantum Detection Over Quantum Channels With Uncertainty

Abstract: In quantum state discrimination, the design of measurement operators and probe states is typically formulated under the assumption that the set of possible states is perfectly known, but this may yield designs that are sensitive to deviations in the realized set of states. For example, the channel through which a transmitted state is sent […]

Simulation of Shor Algorithm for Discrete Logarithm Problems With Comprehensive Pairs of Modulo p and Order q

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: We consider the problem of distributing entangled multipartite states across a quantum network with improved distribution rate and fidelity. For this, we propose fidelity-aware multipath routing protocols, assess their performance in terms of the rate and fidelity of the distributed Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger (GHZ) states, and compare such performance against that of single-path routing. Simulation results […]
