• Abstract: The quantization of systems composed of transmission lines connected to lumped circuits poses significant challenges, arising from the interplay between continuous and discrete degrees of freedom. A widely adopted strategy, based on the pioneering work of Yurke and Denker, entails representing the lumped circuit contributions using Lagrangian densities that incorporate Dirac $\delta$-functions. However, this approach introduces complications, as highlighted in the recent literature, including divergent momentum densities, necessitating the use of regularization techniques. In this work, we introduce a $\delta$-free Lagrangian formulation for a transmission line coupled to a lumped circuit without the need for a discretization of the transmission line or mode expansions. This is achieved by explicitly enforcing boundary conditions at the line ends in the principle of least action. In this framework, the quantization and the derivation of the Heisenberg equations of the network are straightforward. We apply our approach to an analytically solvable network consisting of a semi-infinite transmission line capacitively coupled to a LC circuit.

  We investigate the occurrence of direct and dual Shapiro steps for a Josephson junction coupled to a finite-size transmission line resonator. For the dual case, we do not assume the (approximate) charge-phase duality, but include the full multi-band dynamics for the Josephson junction. We show how the dual steps are very sensitive to these fluctuations and identify the key physical parameters for the junction and the transmission line.

  Distributed quantum computing combines the computational power of multiple devices to overcome the limitations of individual devices. circuit cutting techniques enable the distribution of quantum computations through classical communication. Quantum teleportation allows the distribution of quantum computations without an exponential increase in shots. We propose a novel circuit cutting technique that leverages non-maximally entangled qubit pairs.

We introduce a method to deal with these systems based on the calculation of (dissipative) lattice Green's function. We illustrate the power of this method with several examples of driven-dissipative bosonic chains of increasing complexity.

  Tunable two-qubit couplers offer an avenue to mitigate errors in multiqubit superconducting quantum processors. Most couplers operate in a narrow frequency band and target specific couplings, such as the spurious $ZZ$ interaction. We introduce a superconducting coupler that alleviates these limitations by suppressing all two-qubit interactions with an exponentially large on-off ratio.
