Entanglement-assisted quantum locally recoverable codes: bounds and constructions with availability

In this work, we define entanglement-assisted quantum locally recoverable codes with availability, in which any set of up to $\delta-1$ erased qudits can be recovered from any one of $t$ local recovery sets, each of size at most $r+\delta-1$, with the recovery sets intersecting exactly in the erased coordinates, where $r$ is a (small) positive integer. We show that shared entanglement permits $t>1$, meaning that multiple local recovery sets can be available for the same set of up to $\delta-1$ erasures. We establish a Singleton-like bound for this family of codes and present random constructions based on classical linear codes with Vandermonde parity-check matrices. We also provide explicit constructions of entanglement-assisted quantum locally recoverable codes with availability from several classical code families and their folded versions, including Tamo-Barg codes, fiber-product codes, and algebraic-geometry codes such as one-point Hermitian and Suzuki codes.

Quantum Hierarchical Locally Recoverable Codes

Quantum locally recoverable codes (QLRCs) have recently gained attention as a framework for achieving efficient quantum storage with local recovery capabilities. Analogous to their classical counterparts, QLRCs allow a lost qudit to be reconstructed using only a small subset of other qudits, thereby reducing the resource and operational overhead in recovery. In this work, we extend the study of QLRCs by considering $(r,\delta)$ QLRCs characterized by locality parameter $r$ and local distance $\delta \geq 2$. We present constructions of both random and explicit $(r,\delta)$ QLRCs, including explicit families based on the quantum Tamo--Barg construction. We also present an efficient decoding algorithm for these quantum Tamo--Barg codes. Furthermore, we introduce quantum \emph{hierarchical} locally recoverable codes (QHLRCs), which extend local recovery to multiple hierarchical levels. For any integer $h\geq 2$, we construct both random and explicit $h$-level QHLRCs, the latter being $h$-level quantum Tamo--Barg codes, and establish a Singleton-like bound for these codes using a CSS framework built from dual-containing classical codes. These results advance the theoretical foundations of quantum erasure recovery and contribute to the design of efficient quantum storage architectures.

Quasi-twisted codes: decoding and applications in code-based cryptography

Quasi-twisted (QT) codes generalize several important families of linear codes, including cyclic, constacyclic, and quasi-cyclic codes. Despite their potential, to the best of our knowledge, there exists no efficient decoding algorithm for QT codes. In this work, we propose a syndrome-based decoding method capable of efficiently correcting up to (d* - 1)/2 errors, where d* denotes an HT-like lower bound on the minimum distance of QT codes, which we formalize here. Additionally, we introduce a Niederreiter-like cryptosystem constructed from QT codes. This cryptosystem is resistant to some classical attacks as well as some quantum attacks based on Quantum Fourier Sampling.

Canonical Partition Function on a Quantum Computer through Trotter Interpolation

In this work, we present a Gibbs state observable estimation algorithm based on Trotter interpolation, which reaches a state-of-the-art quantum computational cost of $ \tilde{O}(β\log{1/ε})$. Our approach saves $\log(Γ)$ ancilla qubits compared with the qubitization-based methods for Hamiltonian with $Γ$ stages. To provide a robust assessment of our approach, we benchmark our results against state-of-the-art methodology using the SYK model as a testbed. Our method provides an efficient alternative method for Gibbs-state accessing based on Trotterization in the context of quantum state preparation and estimation of thermal observables.

Exponential Improvement on Asian Option Pricing Through Quantum Preconditioning Methods

In this work, we present a quantum algorithm designed to solve the differential equation used in the pricing of Asian options, in the framework of the Black-Scholes model. Our approach modifies an existing quantum pre-conditioning method (different from classical methods) for the problem of Asian option pricing such that we remove the dependence on the original condition number of discretized differential equation (system of linear equations). This was possible with new fast-forwardable discretizations of the first and second derivatives with respect to the underlying asset value ratio (value over average). We determine that these discretizations handle well kinks in the initial/terminal conditions. We also introduce a new circuit construction for the discretized time-derivative operator with Dirichlet boundary conditions which avoids the oracle workspace needed for the general sparse matrix implementation. Here, we also devised a new method probability integral estimation from which we extract the solution, achieving $\tilde{O}({\rm polylog}\left(1/ε)\right)$, which is an exponential improvement over other quantum methods when it comes to solution information extraction from the solution state.

On proving the robustness of algorithms for early fault-tolerant quantum computers

The hope of the quantum computing field is that quantum architectures are able to scale up and realize fault-tolerant quantum computing. Due to engineering challenges, such ''cheap'' error correction may be decades away. In the meantime, we anticipate an era of ''costly'' error correction, or early fault-tolerant quantum computing. Costly error correction might warrant settling for error-prone quantum computations. This motivates the development of quantum algorithms which are robust to some degree of error as well as methods to analyze their performance in the presence of error. Several such algorithms have recently been developed; what is missing is a methodology to analyze their robustness. To this end, we introduce a randomized algorithm for the task of phase estimation and give an analysis of its performance under two simple noise models. In both cases the analysis leads to a noise threshold, below which arbitrarily high accuracy can be achieved by increasing the number of samples used in the algorithm. As an application of this general analysis, we compute the maximum ratio of the largest circuit depth and the dephasing scale such that performance guarantees hold. We calculate that the randomized algorithm can succeed with arbitrarily high probability as long as the required circuit depth is less than 0.916 times the dephasing scale.

Quantum circuit fidelity estimation using machine learning

The computational power of real-world quantum computers is limited by errors. When using quantum computers to perform algorithms which cannot be efficiently simulated classically, it is important to quantify the accuracy with which the computation has been performed. In this work we introduce a machine-learning-based technique to estimate the fidelity between the state produced by a noisy quantum circuit and the target state corresponding to ideal noise-free computation. Our machine learning model is trained in a supervised manner, using smaller or simpler circuits for which the fidelity can be estimated using other techniques like direct fidelity estimation and quantum state tomography. We demonstrate that, for simulated random quantum circuits with a realistic noise model, the trained model can predict the fidelities of more complicated circuits for which such methods are infeasible. In particular, we show the trained model may make predictions for circuits with higher degrees of entanglement than were available in the training set, and that the model may make predictions for non-Clifford circuits even when the training set included only Clifford-reducible circuits. This empirical demonstration suggests classical machine learning may be useful for making predictions about beyond-classical quantum circuits for some non-trivial problems.
