(DQI) M3-9 Quantum Error Correction | Correction des erreurs quantiques (DIQ)
- Olivia Di Matteo (TRIUMF)
Stabilizer codes are the most widely studied class of quantum error-correcting codes and form the basis of most proposals for a fault-tolerant quantum computer. A stabilizer code is defined by a set of parity-check operators, which are measured in order to infer information about errors that may have occurred. In typical settings, measuring these operators is itself a noisy process and the...
Multi-qubit parity checks are a crucial requirement for many quantum error-correcting codes. Long-range parity checks compatible with a modular architecture would help alleviate qubit connectivity requirements as quantum devices scale to larger sizes. In this work, we consider an architecture where physical (code) qubits are encoded in stationary degrees of freedom and parity checks are...
Atomic and solid-state spin ensembles are promising platforms for implementing quantum technologies, but the unavoidable presence of noise imposes the needs for error correction. Typical quantum error correction requires addressing specific qubits, but this requirement is practically challenging in most ensemble platforms. In this work, we propose a quantum error correction scheme for error...
Motivation: The significant progress that quantum theory has made in recent years, has occurred despite the conspicuous absence of any consensus interpretation of quantum mechanics, and in particular on the measurement problem, which is essentially Wheeler’s question: Why the quantum? The resolution of debate surrounding this issue would likely pay dividends in experimental quantum...
