YZ-plane measurement-based quantum computation: Universality and Parity Architecture implementation

Jaroslav Kysela, Katharina Ludwig, Nitica Sakharwade, Anette Messinger, Wolfgang LechnerPublished: 2026-03-31
We define the class of register-logic graphs and prove that any uniformly deterministic measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) where the inputs coincide with the outputs must be driven on such graphs by measurements in the $YZ$ plane of the Bloch sphere. This observation is revisited in the context that goes beyond uniform determinism, where we present a universal $YZ$-plane-only measurement...

Iterative Optimization with Partial Convergence Guarantees on Neutral Atom Quantum Computers

Cédrick Perron, Yves Bérubé-Lauzière, Victor Drouin-TouchettePublished: 2026-03-30
Neutral atom quantum computers (NAQCs) have emerged as a promising platform for solving the maximum weighted independent set (MWIS) problem. However, analog quantum approaches face two key limitations: constraints of the atomic layout on realizable graph geometries and the absence of performance guarantees. We introduce Lp-Quts, a hybrid quantum-classical framework that integrates an NAQC sampler ...

The Power of Power-of-SWAP: Postselected Quantum Computation with the Exchange Interaction

Jędrzej Burkat, Sergii Strelchuk, Michał StudzińskiPublished: 2026-03-30
We introduce Exchange Quantum Polynomial Time (XQP) circuits, which comprise quantum computation using only computational basis SPAM and the isotropic Heisenberg exchange interaction. Structurally, this sub-universal model captures decoherence-free subspace computation without access to singlet states. We show that XQP occupies an intermediate position between BPP and BQP, as its efficient multipl...

Charge-$4e$ superconductor with parafermionic vortices: A path to universal topological quantum computation

Zhengyan Darius Shi, Zhaoyu Han, Srinivas Raghu, Ashvin VishwanathPublished: 2026-02-06
Topological superconductors (TSCs) provide a promising route to fault-tolerant quantum information processing. However, the canonical Majorana platform based on $2e$ TSCs remains computationally constrained. In this work, we find a $4e$ TSC that overcomes these constraints by combining a charge-$4e$ condensate with an Abelian chiral $\mathbb{Z}_3$ topological order in an intertwined fashion. Remar...

Benchmarking Quantum Computers via Protocols -- Comparing Superconducting and Ion-Trap Quantum Technology

Nitay Mayo, Tal Mor, Yossi WeinsteinPublished: 2026-03-28
Superconducting and Ion-Trap quantum architectures are common in the current landscape of the quantum computing field, each with distinct characteristics and operational constraints. Understanding and measuring the underlying quantumness of these devices is essential for assessing their readiness for practical applications and guiding future progress and research. Building on earlier work (Meirom,...

Hyperbolic Cluster States for Fault-Tolerant Measurement-Based Quantum Computing

Ahmed Adel Mahmoud, Gabrielle Tournaire, Sven Bachmann, Steven RayanPublished: 2026-03-27
Fault-tolerant measurement-based quantum computing (MBQC) provides a compelling framework for fault-tolerant quantum computation, in which quantum information is processed through single-qubit measurements on a three-dimensional entangled resource known as cluster state. To date, this resource has been predominantly studied on Euclidean lattices, most notably in the Raussendorf-Harrington-Goyal (R...

A time-dependent wave-packet approach to reactions for quantum computation

Evan Rule, Ionel StetcuPublished: 2026-03-27
We describe a method for obtaining the scattering matrix for nuclear or chemical reactions on a finite lattice. Aside from the preparation of the initial and final states as wave packets, the only other operation required is unitary time evolution, making this approach ideal for simulations on quantum hardware. The central quantity is a time-dependent overlap between incoming and outgoing wave pac...

Kardashev scale Quantum Computing for Bitcoin Mining

Pierre-Luc Dallaire-Demers, BTQ Technologies TeamPublished: 2026-03-26
Bitcoin already faces a quantum threat through Shor attacks on elliptic-curve signatures. This paper isolates the other component that public discussion often conflates with it: mining. Grover's algorithm halves the exponent of brute-force search, promising a quadratic edge to any quantum miner of Bitcoin. Exactly how large that edge grows depends on fault-tolerant hardware. No prior study has cos...

Unifying communication paradigms in measurement-based delegated quantum computing

Fabian Wiesner, Jens Eisert, Anna PappaPublished: 2025-06-27
Delegated quantum computing (DQC) allows clients with low quantum capabilities to outsource computations to a server hosting a quantum computer. This process is often envisioned within the measurement-based quantum computing framework, as it naturally facilitates blindness of inputs and computation. Hence, the overall process of setting up and conducting the computation encompasses a sequence of t...

Scalable topological quantum computing based on Sine-Cosine chain models

A. Lykholat, G. F. Moreira, I. R. Martins, D. Sousa, A. M. Marques, R. G. DiasPublished: 2026-03-26
This work proposes a scalable framework for topological quantum computing using Matryoshka-type Sine-Cosine chains. These chains support high-dimensional qudit encoding within single systems, reducing the physical resource overhead compared to conventional qubit arrays. We describe how these chains can be used in Y-junction braiding protocols for gate operations and in extended memory architecture...

Radiofrequency cascade readout of coupled spin qubits

Jacob F. Chittock-Wood, Ross C. C. Leon, Michael A. Fogarty, Tara Murphy, Felix-Ekkehard von Horstig, Sofia M. Patomäki, Giovanni A. Oakes, James Williams, Nathan Johnson, Julien Jussot, Stefan Kubicek, Bogdan Govoreanu, David F. Wise, John J. L. Morton, M. Fernando Gonzalez-ZalbaPublished: 2024-08-02
Silicon spin qubits based on metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) technology are compatible with semiconductor manufacturing and offer a route to scalable quantum processing. However, spin readout typically relies on proximal charge sensors, which add architectural complexity and limit qubit connectivity. In situ dispersive readout techniques are more compact, which can alleviate these constraints, but...

Exploring Sidewalk Sheds in New York City through Chatbot Surveys and Human Computer Interaction

Junyi Li, Zhaoxi Zhang, Tamir Mendel, Takahiro YabePublished: 2026-01-30
Sidewalk sheds are a common feature of the streetscape in New York City, reflecting ongoing construction and maintenance activities. However, policymakers and local business owners have raised concerns about reduced storefront visibility and altered pedestrian navigation. Although sidewalk sheds are widely used for safety, their effects on pedestrian visibility and movement are not directly measur...

Adiabatic Ramsey Interferometry for Measuring Weak Nonlinearities with Super-Heisenberg Precision

Venelin P. Pavlov, Bogomila S. Nikolova, Peter A. IvanovPublished: 2026-03-31
We propose an adiabatic Ramsey interferometry technique for detecting weak nonlinearities with trapped ions. The method relies on using the quantum Rabi model as a probe, which is sensitive to nonlinear symmetry-breaking perturbations. We show that the couplings which arise either from anharmonic terms of the trapping potential or due to higher order terms in the Coulomb interaction expansion can ...

Noise-stabilized discrete time crystals on digital quantum processors

Kazuya Shinjo, Kazuhiro Seki, Seiji YunokiPublished: 2025-10-15
Floquet many-body phases such as discrete time crystals (DTCs) are typically fragile to imperfections, and stabilizing them on noisy quantum hardware remains a central challenge in nonequilibrium quantum physics. Here, we use IBM Eagle and Heron superconducting processors to implement Floquet dynamics of a kicked Ising model on two-dimensional Kagome lattices, engineered via ancilla-assisted embed...

Non-perturbative CPMG scaling and qutrit-driven breakdown under compiled superconducting-qubit control: a single-qubit study

Jun YePublished: 2026-03-31
Decoherence in superconducting qubits emerges from the interplay of multilevel dynamics and structured environmental noise, yet perturbative models cannot capture all resulting signatures. Here, EmuPlat couples instruction-set-architecture-level waveform generation to the hierarchical equations of motion (HEOM) under $1/f$ non-Markovian pure dephasing. In the resulting non-perturbative regime -- w...

Thomas-Fermi equation revisited: A variation on a theme by Majorana

Berthold-Georg EnglertPublished: 2026-03-31
Majorana found a way to exploit the scaling properties of the Thomas-Fermi equation for converting this second-order differential equation into one of first order. We explore his method for the familiar neutral-atom solution and extend it to the solution that is relevant for weakly ionized atoms. Various integrals and other quantities with importance for atomic physics are recalculated and their v...

PAEMS: Precise and Adaptive Error Model for Superconducting Quantum Processors

Songhuan He, Yifei Cui, Cheng WangPublished: 2026-03-31
Superconducting quantum processor units (QPUs) are incapable of producing massive datasets for quantum error correction (QEC) because of hardware limitations. Thus, QEC decoders heavily depend on synthetic data from qubit error models. Classic depolarizing error models with polynomial complexity present limited accuracy. Coherent density matrix methods suffer from exponential complexity $\propto O...

Dynamic Cogeneration of Bug Reproduction Test in Agentic Program Repair

Runxiang Cheng, Michele Tufano, José Cambronero, Renyao Wei, Sherry Shi, Grant Uy, Pat Rondon, Franjo IvančićPublished: 2026-01-27
Bug Reproduction Tests (BRTs) have been used in many Automated Program Repair (APR) systems, primarily for validating promising fixes and aiding fix generation. In practice, when developers submit a patch, they often implement the BRT alongside the fix. Our experience deploying agentic APR reveals that developers similarly desire a BRT within AI-generated patches to increase their confidence. Howe...
