Any few-qubit versions of Lloyd's "weakly-coupled-array" quantum computing?

On 1993, Seth Lloyd published in Science a proposal for A Potentially Realizable Quantum Computer. In a nutshell, this consists in a long chain of weakly coupled qubits which are operated with (almost …

How do I add 1+1 using a quantum computer?

This can be seen as the software complement to How does a quantum computer do basic math at the hardware level? The question was asked by a member of the audience at the 4th network of the Spanish Ne …

What are the current solutions to generate entangled qubits in the solid state?

Pairs of entangled qubits (or Bell pairs, or EPR pairs) are a fundamental resource for quantum computing, in the sense that any computational platform that cannot generate entanglement will also be un …

Is PostBQP experimentally relevant? [duplicate]

Far from my expertise, but sheer curiosity. I've read that PostBQP ("a complexity class consisting of all of the computational problems solvable in polynomial time on a quantum Turing machine with pos …

In qubit/qudit terms, where is the experimental limit between S=3/2 and 2·S=1/2?

This question is inspired by "What is the difference between a qudit system with d=4 and a two-qubit system?", as an experimental follow-up. Consider for illustration these two particular cases: Mo …

Can one interrogate black boxes for quantum coherence?

This question is based on a scenario that is partly hypothetical and partly based on the experimental features of molecule-based quantum devices, which often present a quantum evolution and have some …

Translation of color/toric code to a small network of solid-state spins

Within Quantum Error Correction and stabilizer codes, toric codes/surface codes are very tempting, mainly for their high error threshold. For more background please check up, in our Physics sister (au …

Do avoided crossings / CTs /ZEFOZs optimize quantum fidelity in practice?

CTs / ZEFOZs: Energy level structures that include avoided crossings at accessible energies tend to be resilient to noise and therefore present high coherence times, at least in the case of spin qubit …
