The role of entropy in topological quantum error correction

Michael E. Beverland, Benjamin J. Brown, Michael J. Kastoryano +1

The performance of a quantum error-correction process is determined by the likelihood that a random configuration of errors introduced to the system will lead to the corruption of…

Sample complexity of device-independently certified "quantum supremacy"

Dominik Hangleiter, Martin Kliesch, Jens Eisert +1

Results on the hardness of approximate sampling are seen as important stepping stones towards a convincing demonstration of the superior computational power of quantum devices. The…

Eigenvalue Measurement of Topologically Protected Edge states in Split-Step Quantum Walks

Thomas Nitsche, Tobias Geib, Christoph Stahl +5

We study topological phenomena of quantum walks by implementing a novel protocol that extends the range of accessible properties to the eigenvalues of the walk operator. To this en…

Quantum walks in external gauge fields

C. Cedzich, T. Geib, A. H. Werner +1

Describing a particle in an external electromagnetic field is a basic task of quantum mechanics. The standard scheme for this is known as "minimal coupling", and consists of replac…
