- Abstract: Numerous quantum error-mitigation protocols have been proposed, motivated by
the critical need to suppress noise effects on intermediate-scale quantum
devices. Yet, their general potential and limitations remain elusive. In
particular, to understand the ultimate feasibility of quantum error mitigation,
it is crucial to characterize the fundamental sampling cost -- how many times
an arbitrary mitigation protocol must run a noisy quantum device. Here, we
establish universal lower bounds on the sampling cost for quantum error
mitigation to achieve the desired accuracy with high probability. Our bounds
apply to general mitigation protocols, including the ones involving nonlinear
postprocessing and those yet-to-be-discovered. The results imply that the
sampling cost required for a wide class of protocols to mitigate errors must
grow exponentially with the circuit depth for various noise models, revealing
the fundamental obstacles in the scalability of useful noisy near-term quantum
devices.

We microscopically model crosstalk errors from first principles and present a detailed study showing the importance of using a coherent vs incoherent error modelling and, moreover, discuss strategies to actively suppress this crosstalk at the gate level.
