- Abstract: High quality, fully-programmable quantum processors are available with small
numbers (<1000) of qubits, and the scientific potential of these near term
machines is not well understood. If the small number of physical qubits
precludes practical quantum error correction, how can these error-susceptible
processors be used to perform useful tasks? We present a strategy for
developing quantum error detection for certain gate imperfections that utilizes
additional internal states and does not require additional physical qubits.
Examples for adding error detection are provided for a universal gate set in
the trapped ion platform. Error detection can be used to certify individual
gate operations against certain errors, and the irreversible nature of the
detection allows a result of a complex computation to be checked at the end for
error flags.
