Network Operations Scheduling for Distributed Quantum Computing

Nitish Kumar Chandra, Eneet Kaur, Kaushik P. SeshadreesanPublished: 2025-11-17
Realizing distributed architectures for quantum computing is crucial to scaling up computational power. A key component of such architectures is a scheduler that coordinates operations over a short-range quantum network required to enable the necessary non-local entangling gates between quantum processing units (QPUs). It is desirable to determine schedules of minimum make span, which in the case ...

Architectural Approaches to Fault-Tolerant Distributed Quantum Computing and Their Entanglement Overheads

Nitish Kumar Chandra, Eneet Kaur, Kaushik P. SeshadreesanPublished: 2025-11-17
Fault tolerant quantum computation over distributed quantum computing (DQC) platforms requires careful evaluation of resource requirements and noise thresholds. As quantum hardware advances toward modular and networked architectures, various fault tolerant DQC schemes have been proposed, which can be broadly categorized into three architectural types. Type 1 architectures consist of small quantum ...

Universal quantum computation via scalable measurement-free error correction

Stefano Veroni, Alexandru Paler, Giacomo GiudicePublished: 2024-12-19
We show that universal quantum computation can be concretely made fault-tolerant without mid-circuit measurements. To this end, we introduce a measurement-free deformation protocol of the Bacon-Shor code to realize a logical $\mathit{CCZ}$ gate. Combined with a fold-transversal logical Hadamard gate, this enables a universal set of fault-tolerant operations using only transversal gates and qubit p...

Invested and Potential Magic Resources in Measurement-Based Quantum Computation

Gongchu Li, Lei Chen, Si-Qi Zhang, Xu-Song Hong, Huaqing Xu, Yuancheng Liu, You Zhou, Geng Chen, Chuan-Feng Li, Alioscia Hamma, Guang-Can GuoPublished: 2024-08-04
Magic states and magic gates are crucial for achieving universal quantum computation, but important questions about how magic resources should be implemented to attain maximal quantum advantage have remained unexplored, especially in the context of measurement-based quantum computation (MQC). This work bridges the gap between MQC and the resource theory of magic by introducing the key concepts of ...

Exponential parallelism in practice: a comparative feature on quantum computing and instantaneous noise-based logic

Laszlo B. KishPublished: 2025-11-16
Exponential parallelism, a defining principle of advanced computational systems, holds promise for transformative impacts across several scientific and industrial domains. This feature paper provides a comparative overview of Quantum Computing (QC) and Instantaneous Noise-based Logic (INBL), focusing on their practical strengths, limitations, and applications rather than exhaustive technical depth...

Quantum Hyperdimensional Computing: a foundational paradigm for quantum neuromorphic architectures

Fabio Cumbo, Rui-Hao Li, Bryan Raubenolt, Jayadev Joshi, Abu Kaisar Mohammad Masum, Sercan Aygun, Daniel BlankenbergPublished: 2025-11-16
A significant challenge in quantum computing (QC) is developing learning models that truly align with quantum principles, as many current approaches are complex adaptations of classical frameworks. In this work, we introduce Quantum Hyperdimensional Computing (QHDC), a fundamentally new paradigm. We demonstrate that the core operations of its classical counterpart, Hyperdimensional Computing (HDC)...

Higher-order quantum computing with known input states

Vanessa Brzić, Satoshi Yoshida, Mio Murao, Marco Túlio QuintinoPublished: 2025-10-23
In higher-order quantum computing (HOQC), one typically considers the universal transformation of unknown quantum operations, treated as blackboxes. It is also implicitly assumed that the resulting operation must act on arbitrary, and thus unknown, input states. In this work, we explore a variant of this framework in which the operation remains unknown, but the input state is fixed and known. We a...

We present and open source a simulator for circuits composed of passive fermionic linear optical elements and controlled-phase gates. Given such a circuit, our simulator can compute Born-rule probabilities for samples drawn from it. Our simulator supports both exact and approximate probability calculation, allowing users to trade accuracy for efficiency as needed. For approximate Born-rule probabi...

Measurement-Based Quantum Computation Using the Spin-1 XXZ Model with Uniaxial Anisotropy

Hiroki Ohta, Aaron Merlin Müller, Shunji TsuchiyaPublished: 2025-11-15
We demonstrate that the ground state of a spin-1 XXZ chain with uniaxial anisotropies, single-ion anisotropy $D$ and Ising anisotropy $J$, within the Haldane phase can serve as a resource state for measurement-based quantum computation implementing single-qubit gates. The gate fidelity of both elementary rotation gates and general single-qubit unitary gates composed of rotations about the $x$-, $y...

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...

Quantum Error Correction Codes for Truncated SU(2) Lattice Gauge Theories

Xiaojun YaoPublished: 2025-11-17
We construct two quantum error correction codes for pure SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the electric basis truncated at the electric flux $j_{\rm max}=1/2$, which are applicable on quasi-1D plaquette chains, 2D honeycomb and 3D triamond and hyperhoneycomb lattices. The first code converts Gauss's law at each vertex into a stabilizer while the second only uses half vertices and is locally the carbon...

HFBTHO-AD: Differentiation of a nuclear energy density functional code

Laurent Hascoët, Matt Menickelly, Sri Hari Krishna Narayanan, Jared O'Neal, Nicolas Schunck, Stefan M. WildPublished: 2025-08-16
The HFBTHO code implements a nuclear energy density functional solver to model the structure of atomic nuclei. HFBTHO has previously been used to calibrate energy functionals and perform sensitivity analysis by using derivative-free methods. To enable derivative-based optimization and uncertainty quantification approaches, we must compute the derivatives of HFBTHO outputs with respect to the param...

Privacy in Distributed Quantum Sensing with Gaussian Quantum Networks

Uesli Alushi, Roberto Di CandiaPublished: 2025-09-26
We study the privacy properties of distributed quantum sensing protocols in a Gaussian quantum network, where each node encodes a parameter via a local phase shift. For networks with more than two nodes, achieving perfect privacy is possible only asymptotically, in the limit of large photon numbers. However, we show that optimized fully symmetric Gaussian states enable improved privacy levels whil...

With the requirements and emphases on privacy transparency placed by regulations such as GDPR and CCPA, the Google Play Store requires Android developers to more responsibly communicate their apps' privacy practices to potential users by providing the proper information via the data safety, privacy policy, and permission manifest privacy transparency channels. However, it is unclear how effective ...

Qudit-native simulation of the Potts model

Maxim A. Gavreev, Evgeniy O. Kiktenko, Aleksey K. Fedorov, Anastasiia S. NikolaevaPublished: 2025-11-17
Simulating entangled, many-body quantum systems is notoriously hard, especially in the case of high-dimensional nature of physical underlying objects. In this work, we propose an approach for simulating the Potts model based on the Suzuki-Trotter decomposition that we construct for qudit systems. Specifically, we introduce two qudit-native decomposition schemes: (i) the first utilizes Molmer-Soren...

Freedom of expression and 'right to be forgotten' cases in the Netherlands after Google Spain

Stefan Kulk, Frederik Zuiderveen BorgesiusPublished: 2025-11-17
Since the Google Spain judgment of the Court of Justice of the European Union, Europeans have, under certain conditions, the right to have search results for their name delisted. This paper examines how the Google Spain judgment has been applied in the Netherlands. Since the Google Spain judgment, Dutch courts have decided on two cases regarding delisting requests. In both cases, the Dutch courts ...

Measurement-based Dynamical Decoupling for Fidelity Preservation on Large-scale Quantum Processors

Jeongwoo Jae, Changwon Lee, Juzar Thingna, Yeong-Dae Kwon, Daniel K. ParkPublished: 2025-11-17
Dynamical decoupling (DD) is a key technique for suppressing decoherence and preserving the performance of quantum algorithms. We introduce a measurement-based DD (MDD) protocol that determines control unitary gates from partial measurements of noisy subsystems, with measurement overhead scaling linearly with the number of subsystems. We prove that, under local energy relaxation and dephasing nois...

Zhen-Peng Xu, Jie Wang, Qi Ye, Gereon Koßmann, René Schwonnek, Andreas WinterPublished: 2025-11-17
A set of Pauli stings is well characterized by the graph that encodes its commutatitivity structure, i.e., by its frustration graph. This graph provides a natural interface between graph theory and quantum information, which we explore in this work. We investigate all aspects of this interface for a special class of graphs that bears tight connections between the groundstate structures of a spin s...
