Exact and approximate unitary 2-designs and their application to fidelity estimation
Open accessAbstract
We develop the concept of a unitary $t$-design as a means of expressing operationally useful subsets of the stochastic properties of the uniform (Haar) measure on the unitary group $U({2}^{n})$ on $n$ qubits. In particular, sets of unitaries forming 2-designs have wide applicability to quantum information protocols. We devise an $O(n)$-size in-place circuit construction for an approximate unitary 2-design. We then show that this can be used to construct an efficient protocol for experimentally characterizing the fidelity of a quantum process on $n$ qubits with quantum circuits of size $O(n)$ without requiring any ancilla qubits, thereby improving upon previous approaches.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
