Computing 256-bit elliptic curve discrete logarithms in 26 days on a fault-tolerant trapped-ion quantum computer with 20,000 qubits

Thomas Häner, Felix Tripier, Jacob Young +11

One of the strengths of our recently proposed Walking Cat Architecture for a trapped-ion quantum computer is that it is straightforward to extend and optimize for a specific applic…

Efficiently simulable quantum circuits with large entanglement, magic, and non-Gaussianity via code-compiled tensor networks

Aydin Deger, Stergios Koutsioumpas, Mark Webster +3

We introduce a family of quantum circuits that possess standard indicators of classical simulation hardness including high entanglement entropy, magic, and non-Gaussianity, yet adm…
