Reply to Antipov et al., Microsoft Quantum: "Comment on Hess et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 130, 207001 (2023)"

Abstract

In this Reply we respond to the comment by Antipov et al. from Microsoft Quantum on Hess et al., PRL 130, 207001 (2023). Antipov et al. reported only a single simulation and claimed it did not pass the Microsoft Quantum topological gap protocol (TGP). They have provided no parameters or data for this simulation (despite request). Regardless, in this reply we demonstrate that the trivial bulk gap reopening mechanism outlined in Hess et al., in combination with trivial ZBPs, passes the TGP and therefore can result in TGP false positives.

In this comment, we show that the model introduced in Hess et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 130}, 207001 (2023) fails the topological gap protocol (TGP) (Pikulin et al., arXiv:2103.12217 and M. Aghaee et al., Phys. Rev. B 107, 245424 (2023)). In addition, we discuss this model in the broader context of how the TGP has been benchmarked.

In reply to Vaidman's Comment [arXiv:1304.6689], we show that his claim that our Protocol for Direct Counterfactual Quantum Communication [PRL 110, 170502 (2013), arXiv:1206.2042] is counterfactual only for one type of information bit is wrong.

While much of the technical analysis in the preceding Comment is correct, in the end it confirms the conclusion reached in my previous work [Phys. Rev. A 94, 032115 (2016)]: A consistent histories analysis provides no support for the claim of counterfactual quantum communication put forward by Salih et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 110, 170502 (2013)].
