  3. Overview • Universal quantum computation - a bit of history • Change of paradigm • Example : Heisenberg interaction • Lie algebra formalism for encoded universal computation • Results: Heisenberg interaction, symmetric “XY” interaction, asymmetric “XY” with crossterms

  4. Quantum circuits Barenco et al. ’95: + = U + Mantra Single-qubit gates and CNOT generate every unitary transformation!

  5. The problem “Easy” and “hard” interactions (system-dependent) “Easy”: intrinsic interactions “natural” to the system, easy to tune, rapid “Hard”: slower, require higher device complexity, high decoherence Can we avoid “hard” interactions? *quantum dots, donor-atom nuclear spins, electron spins 1 Ralph, Munroe and Milburn, 2001

  6. Almost every interaction is universal! Deutsch et al.(’95), Lloyd (‘95) : Almost any interaction on two qubits is universal. In the generic sense. Does not include the most frequentes interactions. Nature is not generic! qubit i qubit j qubit i qubit j Hij Hji

  10. Language of Hamiltonians U(t) = exp(iHt)Which interactions are universal? Given =H1, H2,…, Hn can one generate any unitary transformation (exactly or approximatively)? H has to generate the Lie algebra of su(N) of the unitary group SU(N)! 1) scalar multiple 2) linear combination 3) Lie bracket

  11. Heisenberg interaction (Pauli matrices) • omnipresent in solid state physics (« Easy ») • is not universal: preserves the total spin of the qubits Lie algebra of E : On three qubits: E12 E23 E13 su(2)

  12. The algebra L(E) of E (3 qubits) the algebra L3(E) splits as: L3(E)  L3(E)  S1I4 S2I2 su(2)S2 Encoded qubit ? su(2) 2 su(2) 2 Simulation of all operations of one qubit (su(2)) with L3(E) on the encoded qubit !

  13. The algebra Ln(E) of E (n qubits) ... the algebra Ln(E) splits as: Ln(E)  ... ... Commutant L’ of Ln(E) : L’ is generated by (« spin » algebra su(2)) As a Lie algebra L’ splits into irreducible representations of su(2).

  14. Useful theorem Let S be a †-closed algebra closed under multiplication and linear combination. Then the underlying space H is isomorphic to such that S and its commutant S’ split as: where M(Cd) (M(Cn)) is the algebra of all matrices on Cd (Cn). ... ... Universal computation “for free”? ...

  15. Useful theorem Let S be a †-closed algebra closed under multiplication and linear combination. Then the underlying space H is isomorphic to such that S and its commutant S’ split as: where M(Cd) (M(Cn)) is the algebra of all matrices on Cd (Cn). NO! The multiplicative algebra is not at our disposition! However the Lie algebra splits into irreducible components in the same basis:

  16. Problem of “Encoded Universality” Given an ensemble of generators H with Lie algebra L(H) which splits as can one find a component s.t. contains su(nj )?

  17. Previous Results - Heisenberg interaction • E is universal with encoding* • introduce tensor structure, ex. blocks with 3 qubits** • efficient implementation of encoded gates: • numerical search** serial coupling - 19 operations for CNOT, 4 operations for 1-qubit parallel coupling - 7 operations for CNOT, 3 operations for 1-qubit *Kempe, Bacon, Lidar, Whaley, Phys. Rev. A 63:042307 (2001) **DiVincenzo, Bacon, Kempe,Whaley, NATURE 408 (2000)

  18. Exchange-only CNOT Nearest neighbor exchange coupling exchange gate i j DiVincenzo, Bacon, Kempe, Burkard, Whaley, Nature408, 339 (2000) Tradeoffs factor of 3 in space (encoding) factor of ~ 10 in time

  19. Conjoining – a new tensor structure Introduce a cutoff that defines a single “qudit”. In principle: ... For larger n one could find larger component with better encoding ratio ? ... ... Need to guarantee uniformity of quantum circuits! (“Form” of the circuit should not depend on size of problem.) Introduce cutoff -> tensor product structure. Conjoining subsystems:

  20. Anisotropic Exchange* encode into qutrit: conjoin qutrits: “XY”-interaction i.e., 1-qutrit operations • HXY generates su(9) on this subspace • “Truncated qubit”: use and only • effectively with an ancillary qubit for gate-applications *J. Kempe, D. Bacon, D.P. DiVincenzo, K.B. Whaley, “Encoded universality from a single physical interaction”, in «Quantum Information and Computation»; Special Issue, Vol. 1, 2001

  21. Gate sequences:7 operations for single qubit operations (serial) • 5 operations for Sqrt (-ZZ) (equiv. to controlled phase) • “P3”-gate: The Gates* /4 -/4 /2 P3() = /2 -/2 Truncated qubit: Single qubit operations: Two-qubit operation: P3(-/2) =  = P3(-) = (Euler angles) *J.

  25. Is encoded universality always possible? NO! • non-interacting fermions (Valiant, Terhal&DiVincenzo, Knill ’01) • nearest-neighbor XY-interaction • linear optics quantum computation Criterion: If a set of Hamiltonians (over n qubits) allows for (encoded) universal computation then the Lie algebra L(H) contains exponentially many linearly independent elements. Some component has to contain where is a polynomial function of n. ... ... ... ex: is not universal with any encoding.

  26. Continuing Work Poster No. 38 by Mike Hsieh How find the gate sequences that implement the encoded one- and two-qubit gates? Numeric search – genetic algorithms (Hsieh, Kempe) Developed numeric tools: Preliminary results in 4-qubit encoding for Heisenberg interaction:

  27. Summary • Lie-algebra methods and redefinition of the tensor structure of Hilbert space allow for universality! • Use of encoding - the implementation of one-qubit gates is obsolete! (change of paradigm) • Heisenberg interaction is omnipresent (e.g. in solid state physics) and easy to implement, whereas one-qubit gates are extremely hard to obtain  encoded universality gives attractive qc proposals • Evaluation of the trade-offs in space and time Open Questions: • Find better than ad hoc ways to generate the gate sequences • General easy criteria to determine encoded power of interaction (e.g. amount of symmetry…) • a general theory allowing for measurements and prior entanglement (to incorporate Briegel/Rauschendorff and Nielson schemes into analysis)

Conclusions/Open Questions • Encoding into sub-spaces allows to make certain interactions universal • Representation theory of Lie groups - powerful tool • E and XY alone are universal - important simplification of physical implementations Which other interactions to investigate? General theory when interactions allow for encoded universality? How find the gate sequences that implement the encoded one- and two-qubit gates?

  32. Single-Qubit and Two-Qubit Gates 1 2 6 LOGICAL 1 2 LOGICAL 3 4 5 1) the full su(2) algebra over a single logical qubit is generated via the commutation relations between exchange interactions over physical qubits: e.g. [H13,H23] = i (J2 - j2) sy,12and[H12 ,sy,12 ] = i 2 J sz,12 2) entangling two-qubit operation C(Z) results from application of the encoded sz operation onto the physical qubits 2-3-4 in the triangular architecture and single-qubit operations 3) the commutation relations are applied via selective recoupling 4) a similar construction is valid for a general anisotropic interaction containing the cross-product terms
