Digital simulation of convex mixtures of Markovian and non-Markovian single qubit Pauli channels on NISQ devices

Quantum algorithms for simulating quantum systems provide a clear and provable advantage over classical algorithms in fault-tolerant settings. There is also interest in quantum algorithms and their implementation in Noisy Intermediate Scale Quantum (NISQ) settings. In these settings, various noise sources and errors must be accounted for when executing any experiments. Recently, NISQ devices have been verified as versatile testbeds for simulating open quantum systems and have been used to simulate simple quantum channels. Our goal is to solve the more complicated problem of simulating convex mixtures of single qubit Pauli channels on NISQ devices. We consider two specific cases: mixtures of Markovian channels that result in a non-Markovian channel (M+M=nM) and mixtures of non-Markovian channels that result in a Markovian channel (nM+nM=M). For the first case, we consider mixtures of Markovian single-qubit Pauli channels; for the second case, we consider mixtures of Non-Markovian single-qubit depolarising channels, which is a special case of the single-qubit Pauli channel. We show that efficient circuits, which account for the topology of currently available devices and current levels of decoherence, can be constructed by heuristic approaches that reduce the number of CNOT gates used in our circuit. We also present a strategy for regularising the process matrix so that the process tomography yields a completely positive and trace-preserving (CPTP) channel.

Digital Simulation of Single Qubit Markovian Open Quantum Systems: A Tutorial

One of the first proposals for the use of quantum computers was the simulation of quantum systems. Over the past three decades, great strides have been made in the development of algorithms for simulating closed quantum systems and the more complex open quantum systems. In this tutorial, we introduce the methods used in the simulation of single qubit Markovian open quantum systems. It combines various existing notations into a common framework that can be extended to more complex open system simulation problems. The only currently available algorithm for the digital simulation of single qubit open quantum systems is discussed in detail. A modification to the implementation of the simpler channels is made that removes the need for classical random sampling, thus making the modified algorithm a strictly quantum algorithm. The modified algorithm makes use of quantum forking to implement the simpler channels that approximate the total channel. This circumvents the need for quantum circuits with a large number of C-NOT gates.

A Multi-Class SWAP-Test Classifier

Multi-class classification problems are fundamental in many varied domains in research and industry. To solve multi-class classification problems, heuristic strategies such as One-vs-One or One-vs-All can be employed. However, these strategies require the number of binary classification models developed to grow with the number of classes. Recent work in quantum machine learning has seen the development of multi-class quantum classifiers that circumvent this growth by learning a mapping between the data and a set of label states. This work presents the first multi-class SWAP-Test classifier inspired by its binary predecessor and the use of label states in recent work. With this classifier, the cost of developing multiple models is avoided. In contrast to previous work, the number of qubits required, the measurement strategy, and the topology of the circuits used is invariant to the number of classes. In addition, unlike other architectures for multi-class quantum classifiers, the state reconstruction of a single qubit yields sufficient information for multi-class classification tasks. Both analytical results and numerical simulations show that this classifier is not only effective when applied to diverse classification problems but also robust to certain conditions of noise.
