• Abstract: A major obstacle towards realizing a practical quantum computer is the noise that arises due to system-environment interactions. While it is very well known that quantum error correction (QEC) provides a way to protect against errors that arise due to the noise affecting the system, a perfect quantum code requires atleast five physical qubits to observe a noticeable improvement over the no-QEC scenario. However, in cases where the noise structure in the system is already known, it might be more useful to consider quantum codes that are adapted to specific noise models. It is already known in the literature that such codes are resource efficient and perform on par with the standard codes. In this spirit, we address the following questions concerning such adaptive quantum codes in this thesis. (a) Construction: Given a noise model, we propose a simple and fast numerical optimization algorithm to search for good quantum codes. (b) Application: As a simple application of noise-adapted codes, we propose an adaptive QEC protocol that allows transmission of quantum information from one site to the other over a 1-d spin chain with high fidelity. (c) Fault-tolerance: Finally, we address the question of whether such noise-adapted QEC protocols can be made fault-tolerant starting with a [[4,1]] code and obtain a rigorous lower bound on threshold.

  We give a new paradigm of quantum error mitigation based on the vectorization of density matrices. Our proposal directly changes the way of encoding information and maps the density matrices of noisy quantum states to noiseless pure states. Our protocol requires no knowledge of the noise model, no ability to tune the noise strength, and no ancilla qubits for complicated controlled unitaries.

Our results demonstrate that, despite being slightly more complex, QEC schemes based on erasure qubits can significantly outperform standard approaches.

For every quantum channel $T$ and every $eps>0$ there exists a threshold $p(epsilon,T)$ for the gate error probability below which rates larger than $C-epsilon$ are fault-tolerantly achievable. Our results are relevant in communication over large distances, and also on-chip, where distant parts of a quantum computer might need to communicate under higher levels of noise.
