Outline

We do theoretical research on the total design of quantum computers, from the approaches to fault-tolerant quantum computation (FTQC) to their physical implementations, namely, quantum computer architecture. The research on quantum computer architecture requires to consider all aspects of quantum computers. The requirement of large resource overheads for FTQC is a central problem at present. To solve this problem, we focus on high-rate codes. Most approaches to FTQC use the encoding of a logical qubit into many physical qubits, which leads to the resource problem. There exist high-rate codes encoding multiple logical qubits at once, but FTQC with them has not been established. We aim at solving the resource problem by developing FTQC with high-rate codes.
