• Abstract summary: We propose a protocol called virtual quantum error detection (VQED) VQED virtually allows for evaluating computation results corresponding to post-selected quantum states obtained through quantum error detection. For some simple error models, the results obtained using VQED are robust against the noise that occurred during the operation of VQED.

• Abstract: Quantum error correction and quantum error detection necessitate syndrome measurements to detect errors. Performing syndrome measurements for each stabilizer generator can be a significant overhead, considering the fact that the readout fidelity in the current quantum hardware is generally lower than gate fidelity. Here, by generalizing a quantum error mitigation method known as symmetry expansion, we propose a protocol called virtual quantum error detection (VQED). This method virtually allows for evaluating computation results corresponding to post-selected quantum states obtained through quantum error detection during circuit execution, without implementing syndrome measurements. Unlike conventional quantum error detection, which requires the implementation of Hadamard test circuits for each stabilizer generator, our VQED protocol can be performed with a constant depth shallow quantum circuit with an ancilla qubit, irrespective of the number of stabilizer generators. Furthermore, for some simple error models, the computation results obtained using VQED are robust against the noise that occurred during the operation of VQED, and our method is fully compatible with other error mitigation schemes, enabling further improvements in computation accuracy and facilitating high-fidelity quantum computing.

  We quantify how the quantum error detection code improves the logical error rate, accuracy, and precision of an encoded variational quantum eigensolver application. We find that the most aggressive post-selection strategies improve the accuracy and precision of the encoded estimates even at the cost of increasing loss of samples.

  The original Steane code is not fault-tolerant because the CNOT gates in an encoded block may cause error propagation. We first propose a fault-tolerant encoding and decoding scheme, which analyzes all possible errors caused by each quantum gate in an error-correction period. We then provide the fault-tolerant scheme of the universal quantum gate set, including fault-tolerant preparation and verification of ancillary states.

In general, there is no analytic universal procedure to obtain the encoding and correction unitary gates. We address this problem using a cost function based on the Quantum Wasserstein distance of order 1.

• Measurement based estimator scheme for continuous quantum error correction [52.77024349608834]
  Canonical discrete quantum error correction (DQEC) schemes use projective von Neumann measurements on stabilizers to discretize the error syndromes into a finite set. Quantum error correction (QEC) based on continuous measurement, known as continuous quantum error correction (CQEC), can be executed faster than DQEC and can also be resource efficient. We show that by constructing a measurement-based estimator (MBE) of the logical qubit to be protected, it is possible to accurately track the errors occurring on the physical qubits in real time.

  In quantum information processing quantum operations are often processed alongside measurements which result in classical data. Non-unitary dynamical processes can take place on the system, for which common quantum channel descriptions fail to describe the time evolution. Quantum measurements are correctly treated by means of so-called quantum instruments capturing both classical outputs and post-measurement quantum states.
