Efficient arbitrary simultaneously entangling gates on a trapped-ion quantum computer

Abstract: Efficiently entangling pairs of qubits is essential to fully harness the power of quantum computing. Here, we devise an exact protocol that simultaneously entangles arbitrary pairs of qubits on a trapped-ion quantum computer. The protocol requires classical computational resources polynomial in the system size, and very little overhead in the quantum control compared to a single-pair case. We demonstrate an exponential improvement in both classical and quantum resources over the current state of the art. We im… Show more

“…Harking back to the power and impact of parallel operations in conventional computing, we look forward to the revolution that EASE gates are to bring in quantum computing. Experimental demonstrations have already been successful [2], and the exciting challenges of finding more use cases of EASE gates continue. In this paper, we took a first step towards this goal, leveraging in particular the random access over any pairs of qubits.…”

“…is a Pauli operator, defined over a vector that points to the equator of a Bloch sphere with azimuthal angle φ j , acting on qubit j and free parameters θ jk are the entanglement coupling between qubits j and k. Shown in [2] was that, even though the number of θ jk parameters increases quadratically in the number of qubits n, the complexity of the control signal design scales at most linearly in the number of qubits n, bounded from above by 3n − 1. Note a single two-qubit gate requires similar complexity, i.e., 2n + 1 [6].…”

“…In the meantime, quantum computers are introduced to the general public by several technology companies such as IBM [ 6 ], Google [ 7 ], IonQ [ 8 ] and D-Wave [ 9 ]. Theoretically, quantum computing can provide exponential speedup to certain classes of hard problems that are intractable on classical computers [ 10 , 11 ].…”

“…Likewise, a quantum version of MIMD is highly desirable to design new protocols that are able to implement multiple entangling gates in parallel and enhance the operation rate within the coherence time of the hardware. Quantum gate parallelism which is essential for fault-tolerant error correction [1,58] has so far been realized in iontraps [29,35], superconducting circuits [57] and optical lattices [42,46]. Nonetheless, the development of parallel operation of two-qubit gates between selected pair of qubits in the context of spin-based computation has remained a critical open question.…”
