Reinforcement Learning Control of Quantum Error Correction
Volodymyr Sivak, Alexis Morvan, Michael Broughton +296
Quantum error correction (QEC) is the primary strategy for protecting a quantum computer from the environment. Its prerequisite is that errors must remain sufficiently rare, which…
LUCI in the Surface Code with Dropouts
Dripto M. Debroy, Matt McEwen, Craig Gidney +2
Recently, usage of detecting regions facilitated the discovery of new circuits for fault-tolerantly implementing the surface code. Building on these ideas, we present LUCI, a frame…
Magic state cultivation on a superconducting quantum processor
Emma Rosenfeld, Craig Gidney, Gabrielle Roberts +292
Fault-tolerant quantum computing requires a universal gate set, but the necessary non-Clifford gates represent a significant resource cost for most quantum error correction archite…
Low Depth Color Code Circuits with CXSWAP gate
Satoshi Yoshida, Craig Gidney, Matt McEwen +1
We present two new types of syndrome extraction circuits for the color code. Our first construction, which after [M. McEwen, D. Bacon, and C. Gidney, Quantum 7, 1172 (2023)] we cal…
Demonstrating dynamic surface codes
Alec Eickbusch, Matt McEwen, Volodymyr Sivak +204
A remarkable characteristic of quantum computing is the potential for reliable computation despite faulty qubits. This can be achieved through quantum error correction, which is ty…
Scaling and logic in the color code on a superconducting quantum processor
Nathan Lacroix, Alexandre Bourassa, Francisco J. H. Heras +212
Quantum error correction is essential for bridging the gap between the error rates of physical devices and the extremely low logical error rates required for quantum algorithms. Re…
