Efficient computation of quantum time-optimal control

Andrei A. Stepanenko, Kseniia S. Chernova, Maxim A. GorlachPublished: 2025-11-14
We present an approach to compute time-optimal control of a quantum system which combines quantum brachistochrone and Lax pair techniques and enables efficient investigation of large-scale quantum systems. We illustrate our method by finding the fastest way to transfer a single-particle excitation in a nearest-neighbor-coupled infinitely large qubit lattice with the fixed sum of squares of the cou...

Xenofon Chiotopoulos, Miriam Lucio Martinez, Davide Nicotra, Jacco A. de Vries, Kurt Driessens, Marcel Merk, Mark H. M. WinandsPublished: 2025-11-14
In the future high-luminosity LHC era, high-energy physics experiments face unprecedented computational challenges for event reconstruction. Employing the LHCb vertex locator as a case study we investigate a novel approach for charged particle track reconstruction. The algorithm hinges on minimizing an Ising-like Hamiltonian using matrix inversion. Solving this matrix inversion classically achieve...

Hamiltonian simulation with explicit formulas for Digital-Analog Quantum Computing

Mikel Garcia-de-Andoin, Thorge Müller, Gonzalo CamachoPublished: 2025-11-14
Digital-analog is a quantum computational paradigm that employs the natural interaction Hamiltonian of a system as the entangling resource, combined with single qubit gates, to implement universal quantum operations. As in the case of its digital gate-based counterpart, designing digital-analog circuits that employ optimal quantum resources often requires an exceedingly large classical computation...

Modular quantum extreme reservoir computing

Hon Wai Lau, Aoi Hayashi, Akitada Sakurai, William John Munro, Kae NemotoPublished: 2024-12-26
Quantum reservoir computing employs fixed quantum dynamics as a feature map for machine learning. Integrating multiple quantum reservoirs, however, raises a key question: how few inter-module connections are sufficient to match the performance of a single reservoir? To address this, we explicitly separate intra-module dynamics from inter-module couplings and systematically examine different connec...

Aakar Mathur, Ashish Gupta, Sajal K. DasPublished: 2025-04-09
Quantum Federated Learning (QFL) is an emerging field that harnesses advances in Quantum Computing (QC) to improve the scalability and efficiency of decentralized Federated Learning (FL) models. This paper provides a systematic and comprehensive survey of the emerging problems and solutions when FL meets QC, from research protocol to a novel taxonomy, particularly focusing on both quantum and fede...

We present hybrid Gibbs sampling algorithms for the stabilizer code Hamiltonians of the rotated surface code and the toric code with only local quantum algorithms, using $\sim L/2$ quantum circuit depth to prepare the Gibbs state of the rotated surface code Hamiltonian, and $L$ quantum circuit depth to prepare the Gibbs state of the toric code Hamiltonian, being $L$ the side of the side of the squ...

Entanglement boosting: Low-volume logical Bell pair preparation for distributed fault-tolerant quantum computation

Shinichi Sunami, Yutaka Hirano, Toshihide Hinokuma, Hayata YamasakiPublished: 2025-11-13
Distributed architecture is a promising route to scaling fault-tolerant quantum computing (FTQC) beyond the inherent limitations of single processors. For practical implementation of distributed FTQC, logical Bell pair preparation must be designed not only for efficient Bell pair consumption but also for the spacetime volume of the protocol; however, entanglement distillation protocols have primar...

Abdullah Khalid, Allyson Silva, Gebremedhin A. Dagnew, Tom Dvir, Oded Wertheim, Motty Gruda, Xiangzhou Kong, Mia Kramer, Zak Webb, Artur Scherer, Masoud Mohseni, Yonatan Cohen, Pooya RonaghPublished: 2025-11-13
The speed of a fault-tolerant quantum computer is dictated by the reaction time of its classical electronics, that is, the total time required by decoders and controllers to determine the outcome of a logical measurement and execute subsequent conditional logical operations. Despite its importance, the reaction time and its impact on the design of the logical microarchitecture of a quantum compute...

Quantum Algorithms for Computing Maximal Quantum $f$-divergence and Kubo-Ando means

Trung Hoa Dinh, Nhat A. NghiemPublished: 2025-11-13
The development of quantum computation has resulted in many quantum algorithms for a wide array of tasks. Recently, there is a growing interest in using quantum computing techniques to estimate or compute quantum information-theoretic quantities such as Renyi entropy, Von Neumann entropy, matrix means, etc. Motivated by these results, we present quantum algorithms for computing the maximal quantum...

Quantum low-density parity-check codes for erasure-biased atomic quantum processors

Laura Pecorari, Guido PupilloPublished: 2025-02-27
Identifying the best families of quantum error correction (QEC) codes for near-term experiments is key to enabling fault-tolerant quantum computing. Ideally, such codes should have low overhead in qubit number, high physical error thresholds, and moderate requirements on qubit connectivity to simplify experiments, while allowing for high logical error suppression. Quantum Low-Density Parity-Check ...

Superinductors are circuit elements characterised by an intrinsic impedance in excess of the superconducting resistance quantum ($R_\text{Q}\approx6.45~$k$Ω$), with applications from metrology and sensing to quantum computing. However, they are typically obtained using exotic materials with high density inductance such as Josephson junctions, superconducting nanowires or twisted two-dimensional ma...

Machine learning force fields (MLFFs), which employ neural networks to map atomic structures to system energies, effectively combine the high accuracy of first-principles calculation with the computational efficiency of empirical force fields.

UFO$^3$: Weaving the Digital Agent Galaxy

Chaoyun Zhang, Liqun Li, He Huang, Chiming Ni, Bo Qiao, Si Qin, Yu Kang, Minghua Ma, Qingwei Lin, Saravan Rajmohan, Dongmei ZhangPublished: 2025-11-14
Large language model (LLM)-powered agents are transforming digital devices from passive tools into proactive intelligent collaborators. However, most existing frameworks remain confined to a single OS or device, making cross-device workflows brittle and largely manual. We present UFO$^3$, a system that unifies heterogeneous endpoints, desktops, servers, mobile devices, and edge, into a single orch...

The Riemann Hypothesis Emerges in Dynamical Quantum Phase Transitions

ShiJie Wei, Yue Zhai, Quanfeng Lu, Wentao Yang, Pan Gao, Chao Wei, Junda Song, Franco Nori, Tao Xin, GuiLu LongPublished: 2025-11-14
The Riemann Hypothesis (RH), one of the most profound unsolved problems in mathematics, concerns the nontrivial zeros of the Riemann zeta function. Establishing connections between the RH and physical phenomena could offer new perspectives on its physical origin and verification. Here, we establish a direct correspondence between the nontrivial zeros of the zeta function and dynamical quantum phas...

Boosting Sparsity in Graph Decompositions with QAOA Sampling

George Pennington, Naeimeh Mohseni, Oscar Wallis, Francesca Schiavello, Stefano Mensa, Corey O'Meara, Giorgio Cortiana, Víctor VallsPublished: 2025-09-12
We study the problem of decomposing a graph into a weighted sum of a small number of matchings, a task that arises in network resource allocation problems such as peer-to-peer energy exchange. Computing such decompositions is challenging for classical algorithms, even for small instances. To address this problem, we propose E-FCFW, a hybrid quantum-classical algorithm based on the Fully-Corrective...
