• Abstract: From the perspective of many body physics, the transmon qubit architectures currently developed for quantum computing are systems of coupled nonlinear quantum resonators. A significant amount of intentional frequency detuning (disorder) is required to protect individual qubit states against the destabilizing effects of nonlinear resonator coupling. Here we investigate the stability of this variant of a many-body localized (MBL) phase for system parameters relevant to current quantum processors of two different types, those using untunable qubits (IBM type) and those using tunable qubits (Delft/Google type). Applying three independent diagnostics of localization theory -- a Kullback-Leibler analysis of spectral statistics, statistics of many-body wave functions (inverse participation ratios), and a Walsh transform of the many-body spectrum -- we find that these computing platforms are dangerously close to a phase of uncontrollable chaotic fluctuations.

  Magneto-optical isolators and circulators have been widely used to safeguard quantum devices from reflections and noise in the readout stage. We propose a new approach to quantum non-reciprocity that utilizes the intrinsic nonlinearity of qubits and broken spatial symmetry. We show that a circuit containing Lorentz-type qubits can be transformed into Fano-type qubits with an asymmetric spectral response.

• Stabilization of Qubit Relaxation Rates by Frequency Modulation [68.8204255655161]
  Temporal, spectral, and sample-to-sample fluctuations in coherence properties of qubits form an outstanding challenge for the development of upscaled fault-tolerant quantum computers. A ubiquitous source for these fluctuations in superconducting qubits is a set of atomic-scale defects with a two-level structure. We show that frequency modulation of a qubit or, alternatively, of the two-level defects, leads to averaging of the qubit relaxation rate over a wide interval of frequencies.

  Many-body localized (MBL) phases of disordered quantum many-particle systems have a number of unique properties. We characterize the quantum noise that a disordered spin system exerts on its parts via an influence matrix (IM) Viewed as a wavefunction in the space of trajectories of an individual spin, the IM exhibits slow scaling of temporal entanglement in the MBL phase.

• Quantum Statistical Complexity Measure as a Signalling of Correlation Transitions [55.41644538483948]
  We introduce a quantum version for the statistical complexity measure, in the context of quantum information theory, and use it as a signalling function of quantum order-disorder transitions. We apply our measure to two exactly solvable Hamiltonian models, namely: the $1D$-Quantum Ising Model and the Heisenberg XXZ spin-$1/2$ chain. We also compute this measure for one-qubit and two-qubit reduced states for the considered models, and analyse its behaviour across its quantum phase transitions for finite system sizes as well as in the thermodynamic limit by using Bethe ansatz.
