Estimate of the time required to perform a nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation

Abstract

Nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation has been proposed as a method to implement quantum logic gates with robustness comparable to that of adiabatic holonomic gates but with shorter execution times. In this paper, we establish an isoholonomic inequality for quantum gates, which provides a lower bound on the lengths of cyclic transformations of the computational space that generate a specific gate. Then, as a corollary, we derive a nonadiabatic execution time estimate for holonomic gates. In addition, we demonstrate that under certain dimensional conditions, the isoholonomic inequality is tight in the sense that every gate on the computational space can be implemented holonomically and unitarily in a time-optimal way. We illustrate the results by showing that the procedures for implementing a universal set of holonomic gates proposed in a pioneering paper on nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation saturate the isoholonomic inequality and are thus time optimal.
