Surface code with decoherence: An analysis of three superconducting architectures
Joydip Ghosh, Austin G. Fowler, Michael R. Geller
We consider realistic, multi-parameter error models and investigate the performance of the surface code for three possible fault-tolerant superconducting quantum computer architect…
Checking the error correction strength of arbitrary surface code logical gates
Thomas J. Milburn, Austin G. Fowler
Topologically quantum error corrected logical gates are complex. Chains of errors can form in space and time and diagonally in spacetime. It is highly nontrivial to determine wheth…
Time-optimal quantum computation
Austin G. Fowler
Given any quantum error correcting code permitting universal fault-tolerant quantum computation and transversal measurement of logical X and Z, we describe how to perform time-opti…
Accurate simulations of planar topological codes cannot use cyclic boundaries
Austin G. Fowler
Cyclic boundaries are used in many branches of physics and mathematics, typically to assist the approximation of a large space. We show that when determining the performance of pla…
A bridge to lower overhead quantum computation
Austin G. Fowler, Simon J. Devitt
Two primary challenges stand in the way of practical large-scale quantum computation, namely achieving sufficiently low error rate quantum gates and implementing interesting quantu…
Analytic asymptotic performance of topological codes
Austin G. Fowler
Topological quantum error correction codes are extremely practical, typically requiring only a 2-D lattice of qubits with tunable nearest neighbor interactions yet tolerating high…
