Sampling-based quasiprobability simulation for fault-tolerant quantum error correction on the surface codes under coherent noise

Shigeo Hakkaku, Kosuke Mitarai, Keisuke Fujii

We propose a sampling-based simulation for fault-tolerant quantum error correction under coherent noise. A mixture of incoherent and coherent noise, possibly due to over-rotation, is decomposed into Clifford channels with a quasiprobability distribution. Then, an unbiased estimator of the logical error probability is constructed by sampling Clifford channels with an appropriate postprocessing. We characterize the sampling cost via the channel robustness and find that the proposed sampling-based method is feasible even for planar surface codes with relatively large code distances intractable for full state-vector simulations. As a demonstration, we simulate repetitive faulty syndrome measurements on the planar surface code of distance 5 with 81 qubits. We find that the coherent error increases the logical error rate. This is a practical application of the quasiprobability simulation for a meaningful task and would be useful to explore experimental quantum error correction on the near-term quantum devices.

Coherent versus stochastic error injection on a repetition-code logical qubit in superconducting hardware

S. L. M. van der Meer, M. Serra-Peralta, Y. Xin +5 more

The performance of quantum error correction (QEC) codes is limited by the underlying physical noise. Theoretical studies show that coherent and stochastic noise have different effects when performing QEC with either surface or repetition codes. We use the bitflip repetition code, realized in a transmon quantum processor, as a testbed to experimentally study the impact of injecting coherent versus stochastic errors on the logical performance. We adapt a scalable free-fermion simulator to simulate the experiments and we modify a subset sampling technique to efficiently sample stochastic noise in the quantum circuit. In the experiment, we do not observe the difference in logical fidelity predicted by simulation for either the distance-3 or distance-5 repetition codes. We hypothesize that this discrepancy could be explained by small drifts in qubit frequencies, which introduce phase-coherent noise that `stochastifies' the injected coherent errors. Our work contributes to advancing an understanding of how coherent errors affect experimental QEC.

Enhancing Dense Coding Reliability under Noisy Quantum Channels Through Redundancy Strategies

Krishna Madhav Nukala, Dadinaboina A. K.Rao, N. Nagasoudhamani +3 more

Quantum dense coding enables the transmission of two classical bits of information through the exchange of a single qubit, provided that an entangled state is shared between the communicating parties. While this protocol achieves a fundamental increase in channel capacity, its practical realization is strongly influenced by the presence of noise in realistic quantum channels. This work presents a simulation-based study of dense coding performance under two representative noise models: the depolarizing channel and the amplitude damping channel. Using Qiskit Aer, the bit error rate (BER), frame error rate (FER), and effective channel capacity are evaluated across a range of noise parameters. In addition, a classical threefold repetition strategy is examined as a lightweight error-mitigation technique. Results indicate that depolarizing noise produces more rapid degradation in both BER and channel capacity compared to amplitude damping, while repetition coding provides partial improvement in reliability at the expense of resource overhead. These findings highlight the trade-offs between efficiency and robustness in noisy implementations of dense coding and motivate further exploration of more advanced quantum error correction methods.
