The authors propose a flexible way to accelerate quantum simulation by entangling primary system qubits with ancillary qubits. The practical benefits originate from tuning the ancillary gauge degrees of freedom to enhance the quantum algorithm's original functionality in the system registry.
Quantum simulation with adiabatic annealing can provide insight into difficult problems that are impossible to study with classical computers. However, it deteriorates when the systems scale up due to the shrinkage of the excitation gap and thus places an annealing rate bottleneck for high success probability. Here, we accelerate quantum simulation using digital multi-qubit gates that entangle primary system qubits with the ancillary qubits. The practical benefits originate from tuning the ancillary gauge degrees of freedom to enhance the quantum algorithm's original functionality in the system subspace. For simple but nontrivial short-ranged, infinite long-ranged transverse-field Ising models, and the hydrogen molecule model after qubit encoding, we show improvement in the time to solution by one hundred percent but with higher accuracy through exact state-vector numerical simulation in a digital-analog setting. The findings are further supported by time-averaged Hamiltonian theory.

An operational way of measuring entanglement in a balanced two-path interferometers is presented, where path information is carried by some internal degree of freedom which, in turn, gets entangled with an ancilla system. The analysis is based on a tripartite description involving paths, an internal qubit degree of freedom, and some ancillary states entangled with the internal degree of freedom. It is then applied to two physically distinct experimental situations: a modified Stern-Gerlach interferometer with spin-1/2 particles and a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with photons carrying polarization. The ancilla degree of freedom may not be experimentally accessible. Tracing out the ancillary system, and employing a quantum erasing procedure based on the internal degree of freedom, it is demonstrated that a concurrence-based measure of the entanglement, between the internal degree of freedom and the ancilla, can be extracted directly from measurable asymmetry of the two output channels. These results show that loss of coherence, quantum erasure, and entanglement estimation in interferometric experiments arise from the same underlying correlation structure and provide a compact experimentally accessible framework for quantifying entanglement in qubit systems.
