Abstract

Abstract. Using the methods of quantum trajectories we study effects of dissipative decoherence on the accuracy of the Grover quantum search algorithm. The dependence on the number of qubits and dissipation rate are determined and tested numerically with up to 16 qubits. As a result, our numerical and analytical studies give the universal law for decay of fidelity and probability of searched state which are induced by dissipative decoherence effects. This law is in agreement with the results obtained previously for quantum chaos algorithms.

Effects of decoherence and imperfections for quantum algorithms

A. A. Pomeransky, O. V. Zhirov, Dima L. Shepelyansky

We study effects of static inter-qubit interactions and random errors in quantum gates on the stability of various quantum algorithms including the Grover quantum search algorithm and the quantum chaos maps. For the Grover algorithm our numerical and analytical results show existence of regular and chaotic phases depending on the static imperfection strength $ε$. The critical border $ε_c$ between two phases drops polynomially with the number of qubits $n_q$ as $ε_c \sim n_q^{-3/2}$. In the regular phase $(ε< ε_c)$ the algorithm remains robust against imperfections showing the efficiency gain $ε_c / ε$ for $ε> 2^{-n_q/2}$. In the chaotic phase $(ε> ε_c)$ the algorithm is completely destroyed. The results for the Grover algorithm are compared with the imperfection effects for quantum algorithms of quantum chaos maps where the universal law for the fidelity decay is given by the Random Matrix Theory (RMT). We also discuss a new gyroscopic quantum error correction method which allows to reduce the effect of static imperfections. In spite of this decay GYQEC allows to obtain a significant gain in the accuracy of quantum computations.

Quantum chaos algorithms and dissipative decoherence with quantum trajectories

Jae Weon Lee, Dima L. Shepelyansky

Using the methods of quantum trajectories we investigate the effects of dissipative decoherence in a quantum computer algorithm simulating dynamics in various regimes of quantum chaos including dynamical localization, the quantum ergodic regime, and quasi-integrable motion. As an example we use the quantum sawtooth algorithm which can be implemented in a polynomial number of quantum gates. It is shown that the fidelity of quantum computation decays exponentially with time and that the decay rate is proportional to the number of qubits, number of quantum gates, and per gate dissipation rate induced by external decoherence. In the limit of strong dissipation the quantum algorithm generates a quantum attractor which may have a complex or simple structure. We also compare the effects of dissipative decoherence with the effects of static imperfections.

Robust quantum computation of the quantum kicked Harper model and dissipative decoherence

Bin Ye, Wenbo Xu, Gu Bin-Jie +1 more

The effects of the dissipative decoherence on the quantum computation of the quantum kicked Harper (QKH) model are investigated using the quantum trajectory approach and the quantum Monte Carlo method. The simulation shows that the dynamical localization for the QKH model and the stochastic web in phase space are destroyed by moderate levels of dissipation. Taking the phase damping channel as the noise model, the universal law for fidelity decay and the timescales of reliable computation are analyzed. Compared with the static imperfections, the timescales for reliable computation of the dissipative system drop more quickly with the increase of the number of qubits when the decay rate is under a certain threshold. While above the threshold, the timescales drop more quickly in the presence of static imperfections.

Entanglement versus relaxation and decoherence in a quantum algorithm for quantum chaos

Stefano Bettelli, Dima L. Shepelyansky

We study analytically and numerically the behavior of the concurrence (a measure of the entanglement of formation) of a pair of qubits in a quantum computer operating an efficient algorithm for quantum chaos. Our results show that in an ideal algorithm the entanglement decays exponentially with the diffusive relaxation rate induced by classical chaos. This decay reaches a residual level which drops exponentially with increasing number of qubits ${n}_{q}.$ Decoherence destroys the residual entanglement with a rate exponential in ${n}_{q}.$

Effects of Imperfections and Residual Inter-Qubit Interaction on Quantum Computing

Dima L. Shepelyansky, Bertrand Georgeot

We study the effects of static interqubit interactions on the accuracy of various quantum algorithms. Extensive numerical simulations show that their effect is stronger compared to external decoherence. Analytical approach based on Random Matrix Theory is developed. It gives universal law for fidelity decay induced by interqubit static interactions. This determines the time scale for reliable quantum computation in presence of realistic static imperfections and external decoherence. New polynomial algorithms are developed for simulation of complex dynamics in the regime of classical and quantum chaos, and Anderson metal- insulator transition. A generic quantum error correction method is developed; it allows to eliminate coherent effect of static errors. The theoretical results are confirmed by numerical computations with up to 28 qubits.

Decoherent histories of quantum searching

Wim van Dam, Nguyen, Hieu D.

The theory of decoherent histories is an attempt to derive classical physics from positing only quantum laws at the fundamental level without notions of a classical apparatus or collapse of the wave-function. Searching for a marked target in a list of N items requires Ω(N) oracle queries when using a classical computer, while a quantum computer can accomplish the same task in O{\sqrt{N}} queries using Grover's quantum algorithm. We study a closed quantum system executing Grover algorithm in the framework of decoherent histories and find it to be an exactly solvable model, thus yielding an alternate derivation of Grover's famous result. We also subject the Grover-executing computer to a generic external influence without needing to know the specifics of the Hamiltonian insofar as the histories decohere. Depending on the amount of decoherence, which is captured in our model by a single parameter related to the amount of information obtained by the environment, the search time can range from quantum to classical. Thus, we identify a key effect induced by the environment that can adversely affect a quantum computer's performance and demonstrate exactly how classical computing can emerge from quantum laws.
