Practical quantum computing will require error rates well below those achievable with physical qubits. Quantum error correction1,2 offers a path to algorithmically relevant error rates by encoding logical qubits within many physical qubits, for which increasing the number of physical qubits enhances protection against…

Error correction is an essential part of the theory of quantum computation. However, new quantum computation students may find the theories of error correction and fault tolerance daunting, or they may be stuck with theoretical/outdated schemes (such as the one in the original proof of the threshold theorem by Aharonov…

We show how looped pipeline architectures-which use short-range shuttling of physical qubits to achieve bounded non-local connectivity-can efficiently implement the fault-tolerant non-Clifford gate between 2D surface codes described in (Sci. Adv. 6, eaay4929 (2020)). The shuttling schedule required is only marginally…

'Daiwei Zhu' 'Jason Iaconis' 'Torin F. Stetina'] In the evolving field of quantum computing, optimizing Quantum Error Correction (QEC) parameters is crucial due to the varying types and amounts of physical noise across quantum computers. Traditional simulators use a forward paradigm to derive logical error rates from…

One of the biggest obstacles to building a large scale quantum computer is the high qubit cost of protecting quantum information. For two-dimensional architectures, the surface code has long been the leading candidate quantum memory, but can require upwards of a thousand physical qubits per logical qubit to reach…

The B cells of the human immune system have evolved somatic hypermutation (SHM) mechanisms that introduce mutations at the immunoglobulin genomic loci at a significantly higher frequency than the rest of the genome thereby allowing them to evolve antibody sequences without compromising fitness due to genome-wide…

A special charged surface network with surface spin half particles on it, that can be arranged in topologically inequivalent ways, is introduced. It is shown that action potential-like signals can be generated in the network in response to local surface deformations of a particular kind. Signals generated in this way…

Conant-Ashby’s (‘good regulator’) theorem states that a simple regulator of a system must behave as an image of it. Notably, evolutionary features present in living beings often mirror natural processes, yielding symmetries between biological structures and the external environment. For instance, nervous cells can…
