Robust nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation by dynamical correction

Abstract

Besides the intrinsic noise resilience property, nonadiabatic geometric phases are of the fast evolution nature, and thus can naturally be used in constructing quantum gates with excellent performance, i.e., the so-called nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation (NGQC). However, previous single-loop NGQC schemes are sensitive to the operational control error, i.e., the $X$ error, due to the limitations of the implementation. Here, we propose a robust scheme for NGQC combining with the dynamical correction technique, which still uses only simplified pulses, and thus being experimental friendly. We numerically show that our scheme can greatly improve the gate robustness in previous protocols, retaining the intrinsic merit of geometric phases. Furthermore, to fight against the dephasing noise, due to the $Z$ error, we can incorporate the decoherence-free subspace encoding strategy. In this way, our scheme can be robust against both types of errors. Finally, we also propose how to implement the scheme with encoding on superconducting quantum circuits with experimentally demonstrated technology. Therefore, due to the intrinsic robustness, our scheme provides a promising alternation for the future scalable fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Dynamical-corrected nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation

Recently, nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation has been received great attentions, due to its fast operation and intrinsic error resilience. However, compared with the corresponding dynamical gates, the robustness of implemented nonadiabatic geometric gates based on the conventional single-loop geometric scheme still has the same order of magnitude due to the requirement of strict multi-segment geometric controls, and the inherent geometric fault-tolerance characteristic is not fully explored. Here, we present an effective geometric scheme combined with a general dynamical-corrected technique, with which the super-robust nonadiabatic geometric quantum gates can be constructed over the conventional single-loop geometric and two-loop composite-pulse geometric strategies, in terms of resisting the systematic error, i.e., σx error. In addition, combined with the decoherence-free subspace (DFS) coding, the resulting geometric gates can also effectively suppress the σz error caused by the collective dephasing. Notably, our protocol is a general one with simple experimental setups, which can be potentially implemented in different quantum systems, such as Rydberg atoms, trapped ions and superconducting qubits. These results indicate that our scheme represents a promising way to explore large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Dynamically Corrected Nonadiabatic Holonomic Quantum Gates

Sai Li, Zheng‐Yuan Xue

The key for realizing fault-tolerant quantum computation lies in maintaining the coherence of all qubits so that high-fidelity and robust quantum manipulations on them can be achieved. One of the promising approaches is to use geometric phases in the construction of universal quantum gates, due to their intrinsic robustness against certain types of local noise. However, due to limitations in previous implementations, the noise-resilience feature of nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation (NHQC) still needs to be improved. Here, in combination with the dynamical-correction technique, we propose a general protocol of universal NHQC with simplified control, which can greatly suppress the effect of the accompanied X errors, retaining the main merit of geometric quantum operations. Numerical simulation shows that the performance of our gate can be much better than that of previous protocols. Remarkably, when incorporating a decoherence-free subspace encoding for the collective dephasing noise, our scheme can also be robust against the involved Z errors. In addition, we also outline the physical implementation of the protocol, which is insensitive to both X and Z errors. Therefore, our protocol provides a promising strategy for scalable fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Robust nonadiabatic holonomic quantum gates on decoherence-protected qubits

Zhi-Cheng He, Zheng‐Yuan Xue

Obtaining high-fidelity and robust quantum gates is the key for scalable quantum computation, and one of the promising ways is to implement quantum gates using geometric phases, where the influence of local noises can be greatly reduced. To obtain robust quantum gates, we here propose a scheme for quantum manipulation by combining the geometric phase approach with the dynamical correction technique, where the imperfection control induced X-error can be greatly suppressed. Moreover, to be robust against the decoherence effect and the randomized qubit-frequency shift Z-error, our scheme is also proposed based on the polariton qubit, the eigenstates of the light–matter interaction, which is immune to both errors up to the second order, due to its near symmetric energy spectrum. Finally, our scheme is implemented on the superconducting circuits, which also simplifies previous implementations. Since the main errors can be greatly reduced in our proposal, it provides a promising strategy for scalable solid-state fault-tolerant quantum computation.

Bao-Jie Liu, Yuan-Sheng Wang, Man‐Hong Yung

Nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation (NGQC) and nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation (NHQC) have been proposed to reduce the run time of geometric quantum gates.However, in terms of robustness against experimental control errors, the existing NGQC and NHQC scenarios have no advantage over standard dynamical gates in most cases.Here, we give the reasons why nonadiabatic geometric gates are sensitive to the control errors and, further, we propose a scheme of super-robust nonadiabatic geometric quantum control, in which the super-robust condition can guarantee both high speed and robustness of the geometric gate.To illustrate the working mechanism of super-robust geometric quantum gates, we give two simple examples of SR-NGQC and SR-NHQC for two-and three-level quantum systems, respectively.Theoretical and numerical results with the experimental parameters indicate that our scheme can significantly improve the gate performance compared to the previous NGQC, NHQC, and standard dynamical schemes.Super-robust geometric quantum computation can be applied to various physical platforms such as superconducting qubits, quantum dots, and trapped ions.All of these sufficiently show that our scheme provides a promising way towards robust geometric quantum computation.

Suppression of systematic errors in holonomic quantum gates via multipath correction

Shou-Yue Sun, Li‐Na Ji, Fei-Fan Cui +2 more

Nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation (NHQC) based on non-Abelian geometric phases can possess potential robustness advantages due to its intrinsic error-resilient features. However, rigorous geometric conditions, including cyclic evolution and parallel transport conditions, typically demand complex and error-prone control and also involve additional auxiliary resources. Moreover, the limitations of optional evolution paths in previous NHQC schemes make it difficult to avoid path segments that are heavily affected by systematic errors, thereby weakening the error resilience of holonomic gates. To address this problem, we propose a multipath NHQC scheme, which can sufficiently improve the robustness of quantum gates by flexibly correcting geometric evolution paths. Numerical simulation results show that our scheme surpasses previous NHQC schemes in suppressing systematic errors for arbitrary gate types. In addition, we provide a physical implementation based on superconducting quantum circuits, with the decoherence-free-subspace encoding and an experiment-friendly two-body exchange interaction, demonstrating the excellent compatibility of our scheme. Therefore, our scheme offers a promising alternative for future fault-tolerant quantum computation.

One-step implementation of Rydberg nonadiabatic noncyclic geometric quantum computation in decoherence-free subspaces

Li-Na Sun, F.-Q. Guo, Zheng Shan +3 more

Quantum gates constructed by geometric phase are naturally robust to control errors due to the global nature of the geometric evolution path. Therefore, how to cope with the inevitable decoherence errors is worthy of serious attention for geometric quantum computation. Different from conventional nonadiabatic geometric quantum computation (NGQC), which needs the same evolution time for any geometric rotation angle, we have proposed and experimentally demonstrated nonadiabatic noncyclic geometric quantum computation (NNGQC) without the requirement of the cyclic evolution condition, which thus reduces decoherence errors due to shortened evolution time [J. W. Zhang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 030502 (2021)]. In addition, the use of decoherence-free subspaces (DFS) is another effective strategy to protect quantum gates from dephasing error and has been studied in nonadiabatic holonomic quantum computation [G. F. Xu et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 170501 (2012)]. Motivated by previous studies, we propose a one-step scheme to implement single-qubit NNGQC operation in DFS constructed by two Rydberg atoms, and then generalize the scheme to the two-logical-qubit case in one step. The numerical results show that our scheme is robust against decoherence in contrast to the NGQC counterparts. The present scheme combines the features of NNGQC and DFS and can further reduce the impact of decoherence on gate infidelity, which may provide an option for the realization of Rydberg-atom-based quantum computation in the future.
