Learning algorithm and application of quantum BP neural networks based on universal quantum gates

A quantum BP neural networks model with learning algorithm is proposed. First, based on the universality of single qubit rotation gate and two-qubit controlled-NOT gate, a quantum neuron model is constructed, which is composed of input, phase rotation, aggregation, reversal rotation and output. In this model, the input is described by qubits, and the output is given by the probability of the state in which （1） is observed. The phase rotation and the reversal rotation are performed by the universal quantum gates. Secondly, the quantum BP neural networks model is constructed, in which the output layer and the hide layer are quantum neurons. With the application of the gradient descent algorithm, a learning algorithm of the model is proposed, and the continuity of the model is proved. It is shown that this model and algorithm are superior to the conventional BP networks in three aspects： convergence speed, convergence rate and robustness, by two application examples of pattern recognition and function approximation.

Operating a geometric quantum gate by external controllable parameters

A scheme to perfectly preserve an initial qubit state in geometric quantum computation is proposed for a single- qubit geometric quantum gate in a nuclear magnetic resonance system. At first, by adjusting some magnetic field parameters, one can let the dynamic phase be proportional to the geometric phase. Then, by controlling the azimuthal angle in the initial state, we may realize a geometric quantum gate whose fidelity is equal to one under cyclic evolution. This means that the quantum information is no distortion in the process of geometric quantum computation.

Elementary Quantum Gates Based on Intrinsic Interaction Hamiltonian

A kind of new operators, the generalized pseudo-spin operators are introduced and a universad intrinsic Hamiltonian of two-qubit interaction is studied in terms of the generalized pseudo-spin operators. A fundamental quantum gate U（θ） is constructed based on the universal Hamiltonian and shown that the roles of the new quantum gate U （θ） is equivalent, functionally, to the joint operation of Hadamard and C-Not gates.

Conductance Oscillations through an Aharonov Bohm Ring with a Quantum Gate

Based on a one dimensional quantum wave guide theory, we investigate the ballistic conductance through an Aharonov Bohm ring with a quantum gate. The analytical expression of the conductance is exactly obtained as the function of magnetic flux penetrating the ring and Fermi energy of indcident electrons. When Fermi energy equals that of bound states in the isolated stub, the conductance is fixed at a constant value which is only determined by the geometric structure of the ring system. We have found that there are a new kind of conductance oscillations for some special mesoscopic ring systems. As Fermi energy of incident electrons crosses that of bound state in the isolated stub, the conductance oscillations have no abrupt change of phase by π and are in phase. This striking feature is not in ageement with that of previous experiments and theories. The mechanism causing this new feature is discussed.

Shortcut-based quantum gates on superconducting qubits in circuit QED

Construction of optimal gate operations is significant for quantum computation.Here an efficient scheme is proposed for performing shortcut-based quantum gates on superconducting qubits in circuit quantum electrodynamics(QED).Two four-level artificial atoms of Cooper-pair box circuits,having sufficient level anharmonicity,are placed in a common quantized field of circuit QED and are driven by individual classical microwaves.Without the effect of cross resonance,one-qubit NOT gate and phase gate in a decoupled atom can be implemented using the invariant-based shortcuts to adiabaticity.With the assistance of cavity bus,a one-step SWAP gate can be obtained within a composite qubit-photon-qubit system by inversely engineering the classical drivings.We further consider the gate realizations by adjusting the microwave fields.With the accessible decoherence rates,the shortcut-based gates have high fidelities.The present strategy could offer a promising route towards fast and robust quantum computation with superconducting circuits experimentally.

A Scheme for Simulation of Quantum Gates by Abelian Anyons

Anyons can be used to realize quantum computation, because they are two-level systems in two dimensions. In this paper, we propose a scheme to simulate single-qubit gates and CNOT gate using Abelian anyons in the Kitaev model. Two pairs of anyons （six spins） are used to realize single-qubit gates, while ten spins are needed for the CNOT gate. Based on these quantum gates, we show how to realize the Grover algorithm in a two-qubit system.

Design of a Novel Signed Binary Subtractor Using Quantum Gates

In this paper,focus has been given to design and implement signed binary subtraction in quantum logic.Since the type of operand may be positive or negative,therefore a novel algorithm has been developed to detect the type of operand and as per the selection of the type of operands,separate design techniques have been developed to make the circuit compact and work very efficiently.Two separate methods have been shown in the paper to perform the signed subtraction.The results show promising for the second method in respect of ancillary input count and garbage output count but at the cost of quantum cost.

Asymmetrical slit duality control gate also can be constructed conveniently. The special quantum control gate could be realized easily in optical system by our current experimental technology.

Quantum gate-assisted teleportation in noisy environments:robustness and fidelity improvement

Quantum teleportation as the key strategy for quantum communication requires pure maximally shared entangled states among quantum nodes.In practice,quantum decoherence drastically degrades the shared entanglement during entanglement distribution,which is a serious challenge for the development of quantum networks.However,most of the decoherence control strategies proposed thus far are either resource-intensive or time-consuming.To overcome this obstacle,we enable noise-resistant teleportation through a noisy channel with a limited number of qubits and without applying time-consuming weak measurements.We apply a quantum gate control unit consisting of a controlled NOT gate and a rotation gate after the original teleportation protocol is accomplished.Furthermore,we demonstrate that a teleportation fidelity of unity is attainable when environment-assisted measurement is added to the proposed teleportation protocol via quantum gates.Moreover,we present an entanglement distribution process by employing the designed quantum gate control unit followed by the deterministic standard teleportation protocol to improve teleportation fidelity by establishing improved shared entanglement.Our performance analysis indicates that the proposed teleportation schemes offer a competitive fidelity and success probability compared with the conventional schemes and a recent weak measurement-based teleportation protocol.

Realization of allowable qeneralized quantum gates

The most general duality gates were introduced by Long,Liu and Wang and named allowable generalized quantum gates (AGQGs,for short).By definition,an allowable generalized quantum gate has the form of U=YfkjsckUK,where Uk’s are unitary operators on a Hilbert space H and the coefficients ck’s are complex numbers with |Yfijo ck\ ∧ 1 an d 1ck| 【1 for all k=0,1,...,d-1.In this paper,we prove that an AGQG U=YfkZo ck∧k is realizable,i.e.there are two d by d unitary matrices W and V such that ck=W0kVk0 (0【k【d-1) if and only if YfkJt 1c*|【m that case,the matrices W and V are constructed.

Noncyclic nonadiabatic holonomic quantum gates via shortcuts to adiabaticity

High-fidelity quantum gates are essential for large-scale quantum computation.However,any quantum manipulation will inevitably affected by noises,systematic errors and decoherence effects,which lead to infidelity of a target quantum task.Therefore,implementing high-fidelity,robust and fast quantum gates is highly desired.Here,we propose a fast and robust scheme to construct high-fidelity holonomic quantum gates for universal quantum computation based on resonant interaction of three-level quantum systems via shortcuts to adiabaticity.In our proposal,the target Hamiltonian to induce noncyclic non-Abelian geometric phases can be inversely engineered with less evolution time and demanding experimentally,leading to high-fidelity quantum gates in a simple setup.Besides,our scheme is readily realizable in physical system currently pursued for implementation of quantum computation.Therefore,our proposal represents a promising way towards fault-tolerant geometric quantum computation.

Three-qubit quantum-gate operation with an SQUID in a cavity

We propose a method of realizing a three-qubit quantum gate with a superconducting quantum interference device（SQUID） in a cavity.In this proposal,the gate operation involves the SQUID ground-states and the Fock states of cavity modes b and c.The two field-modes act as the controlling qubits,and the two SQUID states form the target qubit.Since only the metastable lower levels are involved in the gate operation,the gate is not affected by the SQUID decay rates.

Transmission Modulated by QuantumGatein AharonovCasher Ring

We study the electron transmission tuned by quantum gate in an Aharonov Casher (AC) ring. Transmission probability is obtained as a function of the normalized textured electric fields and Fermi energy. We find that modulating electron wavefunction in the stub can drastically affects electron transmission through the ring system. As Fermi energy crosses every eigenenergy of the isolated stub, the phases of both anomalous and periodic oscillations of the AC conductance generally have abrupt change by π. On two sides of several special Fermi energies, both anomalous and periodic oscillations have no abrupt phase change and are in phase. The detailed characteristics of the anomalous oscillations are dependent on the difference between the tilt angle of the spin and that of textured electric field. By modulating external magnetic field applied to the stub, we present AC oscillations of spin polarized conductance within adiabatic limit.

Jnconventional Geometric Phase Gate with Superconducting Quantum Interference Device Qubits in Cavity QED

In the system with superconducting quantum interference devices （SQUID） in cavity, a scheme for constructing two-qubit quantum phase gate via a conventional geometric phase-shift is proposed by using a quantized cavity field and classical microwave pulses. In this scheme, the gate operation is realized in the subspace spanned by the two lower flux states of the SQUID system mud the population operator of the excited state has no effect on it. Thus the effect of decoherence caused from the levels of the SQUID system is possible to minimize. Under cavity decay, our strictly numerical simulation shows that it is also possible to realize the unconventional geometric phase gate. The experimental feasibility is discussed in detail.

Restricted allowable generalized quantum gates

An allowable generalized quantum gate(introduced by Long,Liu and Wang)has the form of U1 0 d kk k c U -=∑,where Uk's are unitary operators on a Hilbert space H and 1 0 1 d kkc -= |∑|≤and 1 k |c|≤(0≤k≤d-1).In this work we consider a kind of AGQGs,called restricted allowable generalized quantum gates(RAGQGs),satisfying 1 0 0 1 d kk c -= <∑||≤.Some properties of the set RAGQG(H)of all RAGQGs on H are established.Especially,we prove that the extreme points of RAGQG(H)are exactly unitary operators on H and that B(H)=R+RAGQG(H).

Quantum logic gates operation using SQUID qubits in bimodal cavity

We present a scheme to realize the basic two-qubit logic gates such as the quantum phase gate and SWAP gate using a detuned microwave cavity interacting with three-level superconducting-quantum-interference-device （SQUID） qubit（s）, by placing SQUID（s） in a two-mode microwave cavity and using adiabatic passage methods. In this scheme, the two logical states of the qubit are represented by the two lowest levels of the SQUID, and the cavity fields are treated as quantized. Compared with the previous method, the complex procedures of adjusting tile level spacing of the SQUID and applying the resonant microwave pulse to the SQUID to create transformation are not required. Based on superconducting device with relatively long decoherence time and simplified operation procedure, the gates operate at a high speed, which is important in view of decoherence.

We propose a scheme to implement a two-qubit conditional quantum phase gate for the intracavity field via a single three-level ∧-type atom driven by two modes in a high-Q cavity. The quantum inforraation is encoded on the Fock states of the bimodal cavity. The gate＇s averaged fidelity is expected to reach 99.8%.

Preparation of Hadamard Gate for Open Quantum Systems by the Lyapunov Control Method

In this paper, the control laws based on the Lyapunov stability theorem are designed for a two-level open quantum system to prepare the Hadamard gate, which is an important basic gate for the quantum computers. First, the density matrix interested in quantum system is transferred to vector formation.Then, in order to obtain a controller with higher accuracy and faster convergence rate, a Lyapunov function based on the matrix logarithm function is designed. After that, a procedure for the controller design is derived based on the Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, the numerical simulation experiments for an amplitude damping Markovian open quantum system are performed to prepare the desired quantum gate. The simulation results show that the preparation of Hadamard gate based on the proposed control laws can achieve the fidelity up to 0.9985 for the different coupling strengths.

Quantum logic gates with two-level trapped ions beyond Lamb-Dicke limit

In the system with two two-level ions confined in a linear trap, this paper presents a simple scheme to realize the quantum phase gate （QPG） and the swap gate beyond the Lamb Dicke （LD） limit. These two-qubit quantum logic gates only involve the internal states of two trapped ions. The scheme does not use the vibrational mode as the data bus and only requires a single resonant interaction of the ions with the lasers. Neither the LD approximation nor the auxiliary atomic level is needed in the proposed scheme. Thus the scheme is simple and the interaction time is very short, which is important in view of decoherence. The experimental feasibility for achieving this scheme is also discussed.
