A simple method for compiling quantum stabilizer circuits
Brendan Reid
Stabilizer circuits play an important role in quantum error correction protocols, and will be vital for ensuring fault tolerance in future quantum hardware. While stabilizer circui…
Belief propagation as a partial decoder
Laura Caune, Brendan Reid, Joan Camps +1
One of the fundamental challenges in enabling fault-tolerant quantum computation is realising fast enough quantum decoders. We present a new two-stage decoder that accelerates the…
Practical Quantum Computing: The value of local computation
James R. Cruise, Neil I. Gillespie, Brendan Reid
As we enter the era of useful quantum computers we need to better understand the limitations of classical support hardware, and develop mitigation techniques to ensure effective qu…
Reconciliation of quantum local master equations with thermodynamics
G. De Chiara, G. Landi, A. Hewgill +4
The study of open quantum systems often relies on approximate master equations derived under the assumptions of weak coupling to the environment. However when the system is made of…
A self-contained quantum harmonic engine
Brendan Reid, Simon Pigeon, Mauro Antezza +1
We propose a system made of three quantum harmonic oscillators as a compact quantum engine for producing mechanical work. The three oscillators play respectively the role of the ho…
Manipulating matter waves in an optical superlattice
Brendan Reid, Maria Moreno-Cardoner, Jacob Sherson +1
We investigate the potential for controlling a non-interacting Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a one-dimensional optical superlattice. Our control strategy combines Bloch osci…
