Title
Towards fault-tolerant quantum computation with optical continuous variables
Inquiries
Quantum Many-Body Dynamics Research Unit, RQC
Abstract
Optical continuous variables have recently gained more attention due to its unique features for scalability and error
correction techniques. In continuous variable systems, the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill qubit is a promising tool to implement fault-tolerant quantum computation by taking advantage of a bosonic Hilbert space. In this talk, I will provide our theoretical contributions to the improvement of error tolerance with the GKP qubit by a hybrid error correction procedure using digital and analog Information. I will also present several potential approaches for generating the GKP qubit and will introduce the complementary directions for fault-tolerant quantum computation with bosonic qubits by using near-term technologies such as cross-Kerr interaction and photon number resolving detectors.
