• Abstract summary: Parity-time (PT) symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonians bring about many novel features and interesting applications. The performance of evolutions under $mathcalPT$-symmetric Hamiltonians is degraded by the inevitable noise and errors. In contrast to Hermitian Hamiltonians, the fluctuations in dissipative beams that are utilized to generate non-Hermitian contributions in the PT-symmetric Hamiltonians cause additional errors. Here we achieve the protection of PT-symmetric Hamiltonians against noise acting along the qubit's quantization axis by combining quantum evolutions with dynamical decoupling sequences

• Abstract: Parity-time (PT) symmetric non-Hermitian Hamiltonians bring about many novel features and interesting applications such as quantum gates faster than those in Hermitian systems, and topological state transfer. The performance of evolutions under $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric Hamiltonians is degraded by the inevitable noise and errors due to system-environment interaction and experimental imperfections. In contrast to Hermitian Hamiltonians, the fluctuations in dissipative beams that are utilized to generate non-Hermitian contributions in the PT-symmetric Hamiltonians cause additional errors. Here we achieve the protection of PT-symmetric Hamiltonians against noise acting along the qubit's quantization axis by combining quantum evolutions with dynamical decoupling sequences. We demonstrate the performance of our method by numerical simulations. Realistic noise sources and parameters are chosen including: constant detuning error, time-varying detuning noise and dissipative-beam noise. The fidelities of the protected evolutions are well above the unprotected ones under all the above situations. Our work paves the way for further studies and applications of non-Hermitian $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric physics in noisy quantum systems.

  We study a one-dimensional non-Hermitian system with glide-time reversal (GT) symmetry. We discover that the GT symmetry leads to unique physical properties and enables rich dynamic phenomena in non-Hermitian systems. Remarkably, we reveal the dynamic NHSEs that exhibit diverse behaviors across distinct dynamic phases.

  Quantum neural networks (QNNs) exert the power of modern quantum machines. QNNs with handcraft symmetric ansatzes generally experience better trainability than those with asymmetric ansatzes.

  Inherent symmetry of a quantum system may protect its otherwise fragile states. We implement the one-dimensional kicked Ising model which exhibits non-local Majorana edge modes (MEMs) with $mathbbZ$ parity symmetry. MEMs are found to be resilient against certain symmetry-breaking noise owing to a prethermalization mechanism.

  We show that by introducing quantum gates implementing unitary transformations one can induce destructive interference between the errors from different steps of the simulation. In particular, when the symmetry transformations are chosen as powers of a unitary, the error of the algorithm is approximately projected to the so-called quantum Zeno subspaces. We apply the symmetry protection technique to the simulations of the XXZ Heisenberg interactions with local disorder and the Schwinger model in quantum field theory.
