Abstract

Measurement-based quantum computing is one of the most promising quantum computing models. Although various universal resource states have been proposed so far, it was open whether only two Pauli bases are enough for both of universal measurement-based quantum computing and its verification. In this paper, we construct a universal hypergraph state that only requires X and Z-basis measurements for universal measurement-based quantum computing. We also show that universal measurement-based quantum computing on our hypergraph state can be verified in polynomial time using only X and Z-basis measurements. Furthermore, in order to demonstrate an advantage of our hypergraph state, we construct a verifiable blind quantum computing protocol that requires only X and Z-basis measurements for the client.

Verification of hypergraph states

Tomoyuki Morimae, Yuki Takeuchi, Masahito Hayashi

Hypergraph states are generalizations of graph states where controlled-$Z$ gates on edges are replaced with generalized controlled-$Z$ gates on hyperedges. Hypergraph states have several advantages over graph states. For example, certain hypergraph states, such as the Union Jack states, are universal resource states for measurement-based quantum computing with only Pauli measurements, while graph state measurement-based quantum computing needs non-Clifford basis measurements. Furthermore, it is impossible to classically efficiently sample measurement results on hypergraph states unless the polynomial hierarchy collapses to the third level. Although several protocols have been proposed to verify graph states with only sequential single-qubit Pauli measurements, there was no verification method for hypergraph states. In this paper, we propose a method for verifying a certain class of hypergraph states with only sequential single-qubit Pauli measurements. Importantly, no i.i.d. property of samples is assumed in our protocol: any artificial entanglement among samples cannot fool the verifier. As applications of our protocol, we consider verified blind quantum computing with hypergraph states, and quantum computational supremacy demonstrations with hypergraph states.

Catalytic Transformation from Computationally Universal to Strictly Universal Measurement-Based Quantum Computation

Yuki Takeuchi

There are two types of universality in measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC): strict and computational. It is well known that the former is stronger than the latter. We present a method of transforming from a certain type of computationally universal MBQC to a strictly universal one. Our method simply replaces a single qubit in a resource state with a Pauli-Y eigenstate. We applied our method to show that hypergraph states can be made strictly universal with only Pauli measurements, while only computationally universal hypergraph states were known.

Efficient Verification of Hypergraph States

Huangjun Zhu, Masahito Hayashi

Graph states and hypergraph states are of wide interest in quantum information processing and foundational studies. Efficient verification of these states is a key to various applications. Here we propose a simple method for verifying hypergraph states, which requires only two distinct Pauli measurements for each party, yet its efficiency is comparable to the best strategy based on entangling measurements. For a given state, the overhead is bounded by the chromatic number and degree of the underlying hypergraph. Our protocol is dramatically more efficient than all previous protocols based on local measurements, including tomography and direct-fidelity estimation. It enables the verification of hypergraph states and genuine multipartite entanglement of thousands of qubits. The protocol can also be generalized to the adversarial scenario, while achieving almost the same efficiency. This merit is particularly appealing to demonstrating blind measurement-based quantum computation and quantum supremacy.

Demonstration of hypergraph-state quantum information processing

Complex entangled states are the key resources for measurement-based quantum computations, which is realised by performing a sequence of measurements on initially entangled qubits. Executable quantum algorithms in the graph-state quantum computing model are determined by the entanglement structure and the connectivity of entangled qubits. By generalisation from graph-type entanglement in which only the nearest qubits interact to a new type of hypergraph entanglement in which any subset of qubits can be arbitrarily entangled via hyperedges, hypergraph states represent more general resource states that allow arbitrary quantum computation with Pauli universality. Here we report experimental preparation, certification and processing of complete categories of four-qubit hypergraph states under the principle of local unitary equivalence, on a fully reprogrammable silicon-photonic quantum chip. Genuine multipartite entanglement for hypergraph states is certificated by the characterisation of entanglement witness, and the observation of violations of Mermin inequalities without any closure of distance or detection loopholes. A basic measurement-based protocol and an efficient resource state verification by color-encoding stabilizers are implemented with local Pauli measurement to benchmark the building blocks for hypergraph-state quantum computation. Our work prototypes hypergraph entanglement as a general resource for quantum information processing.

Verification of colorable hypergraph states with stabilizer test

Hong Ge Tao, Xiaoqian Zhang, Lei Shao +1 more

Abstract Many-body quantum states, as a matter of fact, are extremely essential to solve certain mathematical problems or simulate quantum systems in measurement-based quantum computation. However, how to verify large-scale quantum states, such as hypergraph states, is an exceedingly hard task for many-body quantum systems. Here, we propose a novel fault-tolerant solution for the verification of colorable hypergraph states by using the stabilizer test. Furthermore, our protocol is dramatically facilitated by making only Pauli-X and Pauli-Z measurements. For geometric structure hypergraph states, the computational complexity of our protocol is polynomial. As to appliance, it will be also applied to blind quantum computing based on the no-signaling principle.

Robust and efficient verification of graph states in blind measurement-based quantum computation

Zihao Li, Huangjun Zhu, Masahito Hayashi

Abstract Blind quantum computation (BQC) is a secure quantum computation method that protects the privacy of clients. Measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) is a promising approach for realizing BQC. To obtain reliable results in blind MBQC, it is crucial to verify whether the resource graph states are accurately prepared in the adversarial scenario. However, previous verification protocols for this task are too resource-consuming or noise-susceptible to be applied in practice. Here, we propose a robust and efficient protocol for verifying arbitrary graph states with any prime local dimension in the adversarial scenario, which leads to a robust and efficient protocol for verifying the resource state in blind MBQC. Our protocol requires only local Pauli measurements and is thus easy to realize with current technologies. Nevertheless, it can achieve optimal scaling behaviors with respect to the system size and the target precision as quantified by the infidelity and significance level, which has never been achieved before. Notably, our protocol can exponentially enhance the scaling behavior with the significance level.
