Abstract

The quantum Fourier transform (QFT) is a key ingredient of several quantum algorithms and a qudit-specific implementation of the QFT is hence an important step toward the realization of qudit-based quantum computers. This work develops a circuit decomposition of the QFT for hybrid qudits based on generalized Hadamard and generalized controlled-phase gates, which can be implemented using selective rotations in NMR. We experimentally implement the hybrid qudit QFT on an NMR quantum emulator, which uses four qubits to emulate a single qutrit coupled to two qubits.

EFFICIENT IMPLEMENTATIONS OF THE QUANTUM FOURIER TRANSFORM: AN EXPERIMENTAL PERSPECTIVE

Kavita Dorai, Dieter Suter

The Quantum Fourier transform (QFT) is a key ingredient in most quantum algorithms. We have compared various spin-based quantum computing schemes to implement the QFT from the point of view of their actual time-costs and the accuracy of the implementation. We focus here on an interesting decomposition of the QFT as a product of the non-selective Hadamard transformation followed by multiqubit gates corresponding to square- and higher-roots of controlled-NOT gates. This decomposition requires only O(n) operations and is thus linear in the number of qubits n. The schemes were implemented on a two-qubit NMR quantum information processor and the resultant density matrices reconstructed using standard quantum state tomography techniques. Their experimental fidelities have been measured and compared.

Implementation of the Quantum Fourier Transform

A quantum Fourier transform (QFT) has been implemented on a three qubit nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) quantum computer to extract the periodicity of an input state. Implementation of a QFT provides a first step towards the realization of Shor's factoring and other quantum algorithms. The experimental implementation of the QFT on a periodic state is presented along with a quantitative measure of its efficiency measured through state tomography. Experimentally realizing the QFT is a clear demonstration of the ability of NMR to control quantum systems.

Hardware emulation of Quantum Fourier Transform

Jose F. Rivera-Miranda, Alvaro J. Caicedo-Beltran, Juan D. Valencia-Payan +2 more

The Quantum Fourier Transform (QFT) has an important role in some of the most interesting and useful quantum algorithms, such as those for period finding, order finding, phase estimation and factoring. Most of the research carried out on the QFT has been developed using software simulators, however these do not emulate efficiently the quantum parallelism present in the quantum algorithms. Addressing this problem, this paper presents the hardware design of an emulator for computing the QFT using FPGAs. This emulator was designed considering a modular philosophy and it is expected to be a powerful tool to evaluate quantum algorithms that include a many-qubit QFT.

Spin-Torque-Based Quantum Fourier Transform

Anant Aravind Kulkarni, Brajesh Kumar Kaushik

Quantum computing (QC) provides an efficient platform to solve complex problems such as number factoring and searching. The quantum Fourier transform (QFT) is an integral part of quantum algorithms for integer number factoring, phase estimation, discrete algorithms, interchange of position and momentum states, quantum key distribution protocol, multiparty quantum telecommunication, and quantum arithmetic. The theoretical and experimental implementations of QFT on various platforms have been proposed by researchers. Spin-torque-based qubit(s) manipulation is one of the encouraging solid-state device technologies. However, to date, QFT is not realized by spin-torque-based QC architecture. In this article, the spin-torque-based architecture has been modeled with the help of optimized decomposition of quantum circuits for the QFT. Moreover, an optimal-depth Clifford + T gates set-based quantum circuit is utilized to implement the QFT. The performance analysis in terms of fidelity (>99%), magnitude, and phase difference of respective density matrices for different forms of three-qubit QFT provides a novel way of its physical realization to address the complex problems.

The Simulation of Quantum Fourier Transform

Yanhua Zhong

At present, it is one of various effective approaches for quantum algorithm to using the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiment technology. NMR uses radio frequency (RF) electromagnetic pulses to rotate the spins. By tuning the frequency of the RF-field to the precession frequency of a particular spin, the power of the applied pulse controls how much the spin will rotate. The axis of the rotation is determined by the direction of the applied RF-field. By selecting the appropriate RF pulses, arbitrary single-spin rotation can be carried out. In other words, using RF pulses we can perform any single-qubit operation. Communication between the qubits is accomplished through the spin-spin interaction in model. A simulation approach in this paper is described to realize quantum Fourier transform algorithm (QFT).
