    Competition of decoherence and quantum speed limits for quantum-gate fidelity in the Jaynes-Cummings model (2)

    Abstract

    Quantum computers are operated by external driving fields, such as lasers, microwaves, or transmission lines, that execute logical operations on multiqubit registers, leaving the system in a pure state. However, the drive and the logical system might become correlated in such a way that, after tracing out the degrees of freedom of the driving field, the output state will not be pure. Previous works have pointed out that the resulting error scales inversely with the energy of the drive, thus imposing a limit on the energy efficiency of quantum computing. In this study, focusing on the Jaynes-Cummings model, we show how the same scaling can be seen as a consequence of two competing phenomena: the entanglement-induced error, which grows with time, and a minimal time for computation imposed by quantum speed limits. This evidence is made possible by quantifying, at any time, the computation error via the spectral radius associated with the density operator of the logical qubit. Moreover, we also prove that, in order to attain a given target state at a chosen fidelity, it is energetically more efficient to perform a single driven evolution of the logical qubits rather than to split the computation in subroutines, each operated by a dedicated pulse.

      Figure 1

      Channel eigenerror of the quantum logical system operated by the JC model with Hamiltonian (2), for the reduced interaction time τ=π/2. (a)Eigenerror as a function of the average number of photons in the initial state of the drive, for different values of s[0.02,0.25] (colored solid lines). The dash-dot line corresponds to a Poisson distribution for the drive state, which has s=1. (b)Eigenerror as a function of the Fano factor Δn2/n¯ of the initial state of the drive, for different values of n¯[50,1000]. The gray dashed line denotes the reference scaling of 1/n¯ (a)and 1/s (b), respectively.

      Figure 2

      Channel eigenerror in concatenating a quantum operation. In the numerical simulations, the concatenated quantum gates are enabled by a JC Hamiltonian, and the drive is initialized in a binomial state with n¯=25 and Fano factor s=Δn2/n¯=0.2. (a)The channel eigenerror grows monotonically with the number of concatenations, increasing faster for greater values of τ. (b)Channel eigenerror as a function of the channel reduced time τ. Each line corresponds to a fixed number C of concatenations. See the main text for the explanation of the behavior of the channel eigenerror around τ=π/2. (c)Channel eigenerror as a function of the concatenations number. Each line corresponds to a constant cumulative evolution time Cτ. For the same cumulative evolution time, we achieve a lower channel eigenerror for the concatenation of a larger number of gates (larger C) but with a shorter reduced interaction time τ. However, this comes with a larger energetic cost; see Fig.3 for details.

      Figure 3

      In each level curve, we present the eigenerror of implementing an X gate by concatenating C pulse shots—each implementing XC—using the same total amount of energy (measured in total number of used driving photons, n¯). Each shot is achieved using the JC interaction, with the driving system initialized in a coherent state with an average of n¯/C photons. Thus, each curve is associated with the drive energy n¯ω. For the same amount of total energy, using more shots increases on average the channel eigenerror.

      Figure 4

      Channel eigenerror committed from concatenating C identical logical operations operated by the JC evolution. The initial state of the drive is a binomial distribution with n¯=25,s=Δn2/n¯=1/2, and the reduced interaction time τ is made to vary in the interval [0,π/2]. Solid line: numerical simulation; dashed line: analytical approximation of the channel eigenerror as provided by Eq.(D4).

      Figure 5

      Comparison between the analytical (dashed lines) and numerical (solid lines) scaling of the channel eigenerror in concatenating C logical operations enabled by the JC evolution. The numerical scaling is exactly the one in Fig.3, and the analytical prediction of the scaling is provided by Eq.(D5).
