Genetic algorithm for searching bipolar Single-Flux-Quantum pulse sequences for qubit control

Nowadays most of superconducting quantum processors use charge qubits of a transmon type. They require implementation of energy efficient qubit state control scheme. A promising approach is the use of superconducting digital circuits operating with single-flux-quantum (SFQ) pulses. The duration of SFQ pulse control sequence is typically larger than that of conventional microwave drive pulses but its length can be optimized for the system with known parameters. Here we introduce a genetic algorithm for unipolar or bipolar SFQ control sequence search that minimize qubit state leakage from the computational subspace. The algorithm is also able to find a solution in the form of a repeating subsequence in order to save memory on the control chip. Its parallel implementation can find the appropriate sequence for arbitrary system parameters from a practical range in a reasonable time. The algorithm is illustrated by the example of the rotation gate around the axis by an angle $π/2$ with fidelity over 99.99%. In this paper, we present the results for a single-qubit system, but in the future we will apply the developed approach to study a system of two qubits.

Random generators of Markovian evolution: A quantum-classical transition by superdecoherence

Continuous-time Markovian evolution appears to be manifestly different in classical and quantum worlds. We consider ensembles of random generators of $N$-dimensional Markovian evolution, quantum and classical ones, and evaluate their universal spectral properties. We then show how the two types of generators can be related by superdecoherence. In analogy with the mechanism of decoherence, which transforms a quantum state into a classical one, superdecoherence can be used to transform a Lindblad operator (generator of quantum evolution) into a Kolmogorov operator (generator of classical evolution). We inspect spectra of random Lindblad operators undergoing superdecoherence and demonstrate that, in the limit of complete superdecoherence, the resulting operators exhibit spectral density typical to random Kolmogorov operators. By gradually increasing strength of superdecoherence, we observe a sharp quantum-to-classical transition. Furthermore, we define an inverse procedure of supercoherification that is a generalization of the scheme used to construct a quantum state out of a classical one. Finally, we study microscopic correlation between neighbouring eigenvalues through the complex spacing ratios and observe the horse-shoe distribution, emblematic of the Ginibre universality class, for both types of random generators. Remarkably, it survives superdecoherence and supercoherification.

Localization in open quantum systems

In an isolated single-particle quantum system a spatial disorder can induce Anderson localization. Being a result of interference, this phenomenon is expected to be fragile in the face of dissipation. Here we show that dissipation can drive a disordered system into a steady state with tunable localization properties. This can be achieved with a set of identical dissipative operators, each one acting non-trivially only on a pair of neighboring sites. Operators are parametrized by a uniform phase, which controls selection of Anderson modes contributing to the state. On the microscopic level, quantum trajectories of a system in a localized steady regime exhibit intermittent dynamics consisting of long-time sticking events near selected modes interrupted by jumps between them.
