Quantum circuits for single-qubit measurements corresponding to platonic solids
نویسندگان
چکیده
Each platonic solid defines a single-qubit positive operator valued measure (POVM) by interpreting its vertices as points on the Bloch sphere. We construct simple circuits for implementing this kind of measurements and other simple types of symmetric POVMs on one qubit. Each implementation consists of a discrete Fourier transform and some elementary quantum operations followed by an orthogonal measurement in the computational basis.

Explicit circuits for quantum communication through multipartite cluster states
Quantum circuits are provided for realizing quantum communicational protocols involving teleportation and quantum information splitting (QIS) of single and two qubit states. We explicate these protocols through cluster states as the same is experimentally achievable. We describe quantum circuits for realizing the four and five partite cluster states using well known gates in quantum information...
متن کاملA Resource-Optimal Canonical Form for Single-qubit Quantum Circuits
Determining the optimal implementation of a quantum gate is critical for designing a quantum computer. We consider the crucial task of efficiently decomposing a general single-qubit quantum gate into a sequence of fault-tolerant quantum operations. For a given single-qubit circuit, we construct an optimal gate sequence consisting of fault-tolerant Hadamard (H) and π/8 rotations (T ). Our scheme...

We present geometric methods for uniformly discretizing the N -qubit Hilbert space, producing the equivalent of the Platonic solids in 2 dimensional Hilbert space. The group of transformations leaving these uniform Hilbertian polytopes invariant known as the Clifford group provides a general language for describing discrete transformations on N qubits. Our geometric approach to discretization s...

We investigate the electronic transport through a single-level quantum-dot which is capacitively coupled to a charge-qubit. By employing the method of nonequilibrium Green's functions, we calculate the electric current through quantum dot at finite bias voltages. The Green's functions and self-energies of the system are calculated perturbatively and self-consistently to the second order of inte...
متن کاملA Depth-Optimal Canonical Form for Single-qubit Quantum Circuits
Given an arbitrary single-qubit operation, an important task is to efficiently decompose this operation into an (exact or approximate) sequence of fault-tolerant quantum operations. We derive a depth-optimal canonical form for single-qubit quantum circuits, and the corresponding rules for exactly reducing an arbitrary single-qubit circuit to this canonical form. We focus on the singlequbit univ...
