Quantum simulation of theories in qudit systems

Doga Murat Kurkcuoglu, M. Sohaib Alam, Joshua Adam Job +4

We discuss the implementation of quantum algorithms for lattice theory on circuit quantum electrodynamics (cQED) system. The field is represented on qudits in a discretized f…

Systematic comparison of deep belief network training using quantum annealing vs. classical techniques

Joshua Job, Steve Adachi

In this work we revisit and expand on a 2015 study that used a D-Wave quantum annealer as a sampling engine to assist in the training of a Deep Neural Network. The original 2015 re…

Test-driving 1000 qubits

Joshua Job, Daniel Lidar

Quantum computing is no longer a nascent field. Programmable quantum annealing devices with more that 1000 qubits are commercially available. How does one know that a putative quan…

Teleportation-based Fault-tolerant Quantum Computation in Multi-qubit Large Block Codes

Todd A. Brun, Yi-Cong Zheng, Kung-Chuan Hsu +2

A major goal for fault-tolerant quantum computation (FTQC) is to reduce the overhead needed for error correction. One approach is to use block codes that encode multiple qubits, wh…
