• Abstract: Landau-Zener physics is often exploited to generate quantum logic gates and to perform state initialization and readout. The quality of these operations can be degraded by noise fluctuations in the energy gap at the avoided crossing. We leverage a recently discovered correspondence between qubit evolution and space curves in three dimensions to design noise-robust Landau-Zener sweeps through an avoided crossing. In the case where the avoided crossing is purely noise-induced, we prove that operations based on monotonic sweeps cannot be robust to noise. Hence, we design families of phase gates based on non-monotonic drives that are error-robust up to second order. In the general case where there is an avoided crossing even in the absence of noise, we present a general technique for designing robust driving protocols that takes advantage of a relationship between the Landau-Zener problem and space curves of constant torsion.

  We introduce a channel representation for arbitrary non-Markovian quantum dynamics, termed the Choi channel. This representation translates the complex dynamics of non-Markovian noise into the familiar picture of noise channels acting on ideal states. We have devised new protocols using Pauli twirling, probabilistic error cancellation and virtual channel purification.

  We show that geometrically local circuits in the presence of nonunital noise, in any dimension $dgeq 1$, can correct errors without mid-circuit measurements and extend to any depth. This implies that local quantum dynamics subjected to sufficiently weak nonunital noise is computationally universal and nearly as hard to simulate as noiseless dynamics.

We show that oscillations persist even in the adiabatic phase because of a frequency independent coupling between zero modes and excited states.
