Minimal Energy Cost to Initialize a Quantum Bit with Tolerable Error

Yu-Han Ma, Jin-Fu Chen, C. P. Sun +1

Landauer's principle imposes a fundamental limit on the energy cost to perfectly initialize a classical bit, which is only reached under the ideal operation with infinite-long time…

A simple relation of guessing probability in quantum key distribution

Hong-Yi Su

Given a communication system using quantum key distribution, the receiver can be seen as one who tries to guess the sender's information just as potential eavesdroppers do. The rec…

Error statistics and scalability of quantum error mitigation formulas

Dayue Qin, Yanzhu Chen, Ying Li

Quantum computing promises advantages over classical computing in many problems. Nevertheless, noise in quantum devices prevents most quantum algorithms from achieving the quantum…

Criterion for a state to be distillable via stochastic incoherent operations

C. L. Liu, D. L. Zhou, C. P. Sun

Coherence distillation is a basic information-theoretic task in the resource theory of coherence. In this paper, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions under which a mi…

Error-mitigated deep-circuit quantum simulation of open systems: steady state and relaxation rate problems

Anbang Wang, Jingning Zhang, Ying Li

Deep-circuit quantum computation, like Shor's algorithm, is undermined by error accumulation, and near-future quantum techniques are far from adequate for full-fledged quantum erro…

The Variational Quantum Eigensolver: a review of methods and best practices

Jules Tilly, Hongxiang Chen, Shuxiang Cao +8

The variational quantum eigensolver (or VQE) uses the variational principle to compute the ground state energy of a Hamiltonian, a problem that is central to quantum chemistry and…
