• Abstract summary: In the era of quantum computing without full fault-tolerance, it is essential to suppress noise effects via the quantum error mitigation techniques to enhance the computational power of the quantum devices. One of the most effective noise-agnostic error mitigation schemes is the generalized quantum subspace expansion (GSE) method. We propose the fault-subspace method, which constructs an error-mitigated quantum state with copies of quantum states with different noise levels.

• Abstract: In the era of quantum computing without full fault-tolerance, it is essential to suppress noise effects via the quantum error mitigation techniques to enhance the computational power of the quantum devices. One of the most effective noise-agnostic error mitigation schemes is the generalized quantum subspace expansion (GSE) method, which unifies various mitigation algorithms under the framework of the quantum subspace expansion. Specifically, the fault-subspace method, a subclass of GSE method, constructs an error-mitigated quantum state with copies of quantum states with different noise levels. However, from the experimental aspect, it is nontrivial to determine how to reliably amplify the noise so that the error in the simulation result is efficiently suppressed. In this work, we explore the potential of the fault-subspace method by leveraging the hardware-oriented noise: intentional amplification of the decoherence, noise boost by insertion of identity, making use of crosstalk, and probabilistic implementation of noise channel. We demonstrate the validity of our proposals via both numerical simulations with the noise parameters reflecting those in quantum devices available via IBM Quantum, and also experiments performed therein.

  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.

Quantum measurements are correctly treated by means of so-called quantum instruments capturing both classical outputs and post-measurement quantum states.
