• Authors: Bijita Sarma, Michael J. Hartmann
• Abstract summary: We propose and illustrate the usefulness of reinforcement learning to generate fast two-qubit gates in superconducting qubits. We show that the RL controller offers great effectiveness in finding piecewise constant gate pulse sequences autonomously. Such gate pulse sequences exploit the leakage space judiciously by controlling the leakage dynamics into and out of the computational subspace.

• Abstract: Fast quantum gates are crucial not only for the contemporary era of noisy intermediate-scale quantum devices but also for the prospective development of practical fault-tolerant quantum computing systems. Leakage errors, which arise from data qubits jumping beyond the confines of the computational subspace, are the main challenges in realizing non-adiabatically driven, fast gates. In this letter, we propose and illustrate the usefulness of reinforcement learning (RL) to generate fast two-qubit gates in practical multi-level superconducting qubits. In particular, we show that the RL controller offers great effectiveness in finding piecewise constant gate pulse sequences autonomously that act on two transmon data qubits coupled by a tunable coupler to generate a controlled-Z (CZ) gate with 11 ns gate time and an error rate of $\sim 4\times 10^{-3}$, making it about five times faster than state-of-the-art implementations. Such gate pulse sequences exploit the leakage space judiciously by controlling the leakage dynamics into and out of the computational subspace at appropriate times during the gate application, making it extremely fast.

  Qubit decoherence unavoidably degrades the fidelity of quantum logic gates. One such error channel arises from the counter-rotating component of strong, linearly polarized drives. We develop and demonstrate two complementary protocols for mitigating this error channel.
