- Authors: Jader P. Santos, Ivan Henao, Raam Uzdin
- Abstract summary: We introduce the incoherent infidelity as a measure of incoherent errors.
This method is applicable to generic quantum evolutions subjected to time-dependent Markovian noise.
It provides an error quantifier for the target circuit, rather than an error averaged over many circuits or quantum gates.

- Abstract: Quantum processors can already execute tasks beyond the reach of classical
simulation, albeit for artificial problems. At this point, it is essential to
design error metrics that test the experimental accuracy of quantum algorithms
with potential for a practical quantum advantage. The distinction between
coherent errors and incoherent errors is crucial, as they often involve
different error suppression tools. The first class encompasses miscalibrations
of control signals and crosstalk, while the latter is usually related to
stochastic events and unwanted interactions with the environment. We introduce
the incoherent infidelity as a measure of incoherent errors and present a
scalable method for measuring it. This method is applicable to generic quantum
evolutions subjected to time-dependent Markovian noise. Moreover, it provides
an error quantifier for the target circuit, rather than an error averaged over
many circuits or quantum gates. The estimation of the incoherent infidelity is
suitable to assess circuits with sufficiently low error rates, regardless of
the circuit size, which is a natural requirement to run useful computations.

Many current quantum error correcting codes that achieve full fault-tolerance suffer from having low ratios of logical to physical qubits and significant overhead.
We propose a middle ground: constructions in the [[n,n-2,2]] quantum error detecting code that can detect any error from a single faulty gate.

This type of errors affects spectator qubits that, ideally, should remain unaltered during the application of single- and two-qubit quantum gates addressed at a different set of active qubits.
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.

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.
