Near-optimal synthesis of non-Gaussian phase gates via qubit-oscillator Rabi control

Non-Gaussian gates remain a key bottleneck for universal continuous-variable (CV) quantum computation because the nonlinearities they require are difficult to engineer. To address this challenge, we develop an efficient qubit-oscillator Rabi synthesis scheme for polynomial phase gates, with a total interaction time tha...

Coherent error threshold for quantum LDPC codes

A key appeal of quantum low-density parity check (qLDPC) codes is their ability to suppress stochastic Pauli noise below nonzero thresholds. Coherent errors are fundamentally different: they produce superpositions of error patterns whose amplitudes can interfere even after syndrome measurement. Rigorous understanding o...

Fermionic quantum error correction is never free

This work shows that the logical space of any non-trivial fermionic error-correcting code contains no pure fermionic Gaussian state, utilizing a fundamental incompatibility between fermionic error correction and Wick's theorem.

On the geometry and typicality of quantum magic

We prove that, for an $n$-qubit system of dimension $d=2^n$, every state satisfying $\operatorname{Tr}(\rho^2)\le 1/(d-a_\ast)$, with $a_\ast=0.458327\cdots$, lies inside the stabilizer polytope and is therefore magic-free. Combining this result with general geometric properties of high-dimensional polytopes, we establ...

Entirely nonlocal quantum magic without entanglement

Nonstabilizerness, or magic, is an archetypal \emph{quantum} resource that is necessary for quantum computational advantage. Here we uncover a phenomenon seemingly at odds with the quantum nature of magic: entirely nonlocal magic (ENM)---magic present only in correlations and absent from each party's marginal---can liv...
