- Abstract summary: We study how different approximations of the noise capture the performance of the five-qubit code.
A Pauli approximation going beyond a single-qubit channel, is sensitive to the details of the noise, state, and decoder.
We calculate the code pseudo-threshold emerging within this model, and demonstrate how knowledge of the qubit parameters and connectivity can be used to design better decoders.

- Abstract: We analyze the performance of a quantum error correction code subject to physically-motivated noise modeled by a Lindblad master equation. Working within the code-capacity framework, we consider dissipative and coherent single-qubit terms and two-qubit crosstalk, studying how different approximations of the noise capture the performance of the five-qubit code. A composite-channel approximation where every noise term is considered separately, captures the behavior in many physical cases up to considerably-long timescales, and we analyze its eventual failure due to the effect of noncommuting terms. In contrast, we find that single-qubit approximations do not properly capture the error correction dynamics with two-qubit noise, even for short times. A Pauli approximation going beyond a single-qubit channel, is sensitive to the details of the noise, state, and decoder, and succeeds in many cases at short timescales relative to the noise strength, beyond which it fails. We calculate the code pseudo-threshold emerging within this model, and demonstrate how knowledge of the qubit parameters and connectivity can be used to design better decoders. These results shed light on the performance of error correction codes in the presence of realistic noise and can advance the ongoing efforts toward useful quantum error correction.

We present a study of crosstalk errors in a quantum-computing architecture based on a single string of ions confined by a radio-frequency trap, and manipulated by individually-addressed laser beams.

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.
