Simulation of rare events in quantum error correction
Sergey Bravyi, Alexander Vargo
We consider the problem of calculating the logical error probability for a stabilizer quantum code subject to random Pauli errors. To access the regime of large code distances wher…

Pretending to factor large numbers on a quantum computer
John A. Smolin, Graeme Smith, Alex Vargo
Shor's algorithm for factoring in polynomial time on a quantum computer\cite{Shor} gives an enormous advantage over all known classical factoring algorithm. We demonstrate how to f…
