Preserving Coherence in Quantum Computation by Pairing Quantum Bits
Open accessAbstract
A scheme for protecting quantum states from both independent and cooperative decoherence is proposed. The scheme operates by pairing each qubit (two-state quantum system) with an ancilla qubit and by encoding the states of the qubits into corresponding coherence-preserving states of qubit pairs. In this scheme, amplitude damping (loss of energy) as well as phase damping (dephasing) is prevented by a strategy called ``free-Hamiltonian elimination.'' We further extend the scheme to include quantum gate operations and show that loss and decoherence during such operations can also be prevented.

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.
