January 2023 • Andrii Maksymov, Jason Nguyen, Yunseong Nam, Igor L. Markov
Large quantum computers promise to solve some critical problems not solvable otherwise. However, modern quantum technologies suffer various imperfections such as control errors and qubit decoherence, inhibiting their potential utility. The overheads of quantum error correction are too great for near-term quantum computers, whereas error-mitigation strategies that address specific device imperfections may lose relevance as devices improve. To enhance the performance of quantum computers with high-quality qubits, we…
