Probabilistic sparse synthesis of quantum operations

Image from Licence Details: Probabilistic sparse synthesis of quantum operations

Applications: Quantum computing, magnetic resonance imaging, nuclear magnetic resonance

Many operations, such as quantum computing gates or control pulses for NMR/MRI, cannot be feasibly implemented using current hardware or require coherence times that are unachievable. Oxford researcher’s new probabilistic approach enables the exact implementation of such operations.

Features Benefits
  • The method synthesises a desired quantum operation from a library of approximations that can be realised natively in quantum hardware.
  • The approach allows quantum operations to be synthesised that would be impossible to implement directly in current quantum hardware.
  • Uses classical computers to numerically pre-process the probabilistic scheme.
  • Achieves orders of magnitude lower measurement overheads than other probabilistic schemes.
  • Uses more generalised mathematical approach compared to other probabilistic techniques.
  • Can be applied to a broad range of scenarios including quantum gate synthesis, quantum optimum control, and NMR and MRI operations.
  • It is directly compatible with error mitigation and advanced, randomised measurement techniques.
  • Doesn’t require both Clifford and T gate sequences unlike current probabilistic methods to synthesis quantum gates.
  • Can exactly synthesis a quantum operation requiring only a small increase in the number of times the operation needs to be repeated.
