Kindergarden quantum mechanics graduates (...or how I learned to stop gluing LEGO together and love the ZX-calculus)
Bob Coecke, Dominic Horsman, Aleks Kissinger +1
This paper is a `spiritual child' of the 2005 lecture notes Kindergarten Quantum Mechanics, which showed how a simple, pictorial extension of Dirac notation allowed several quantum…
SZX-calculus: Scalable Graphical Quantum Reasoning
Titouan Carette, Dominic Horsman, Simon Perdrix
We introduce the Scalable ZX-calculus (SZX-calculus for short), a formal and compact graphical language for the design and verification of quantum computations. The SZX-calculus is…
Pauli Fusion: a Computational Model to Realise Quantum Transformations from ZX Terms
Niel de Beaudrap, Ross Duncan, Dominic Horsman +1
We present an abstract model of quantum computation, the "Pauli Fusion" model, whose primitive operations correspond closely to generators of the ZX calculus (a formal graphical la…
Decoding quantum error correction with Ising model hardware
Joschka Roffe, Stefan Zohren, Dominic Horsman +1
Fault tolerant quantum computers will require efficient co-processors for real-time decoding of their adopted quantum error correction protocols. In this work we examine the possib…
Communication through coherent control of quantum channels
Alastair A. Abbott, Julian Wechs, Dominic Horsman +2
A completely depolarising quantum channel always outputs a fully mixed state and thus cannot transmit any information. In a recent Letter [D. Ebler et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 12…
Quantum codes from classical graphical models
Joschka Roffe, Stefan Zohren, Dominic Horsman +1
We introduce a new graphical framework for designing quantum error correction codes based on classical principles. A key feature of this graphical language, over previous approache…
