• Abstract: We show in this paper that a strong and easy connection exists between quantum error correction and Lattice Gauge Theories (LGT) by using the Gauge symmetry to construct an efficient error-correcting code for Abelian LGTs. We identify the logical operations on this gauge covariant code and show that the corresponding Hamiltonian can be expressed in terms of these logical operations while preserving the locality of the interactions. Furthermore, we demonstrate that these substitutions actually give a new way of writing the LGT as an equivalent hardcore boson model. Finally we demonstrate a method to perform fault-tolerant time evolution of the Hamiltonian within the gauge covariant code using both product formulas and qubitization approaches. This opens up the possibility of inexpensive end to end dynamical simulations that save physical qubits by blurring the lines between simulation algorithms and quantum error correcting codes.

  One effective way to accelerate inference is emphSpeculative Decoding, which employs a small model to sample a sequence of draft tokens and a large model to validate. This paper tackles this gap by conceptualizing the decoding problem via markov chain abstraction and studying the key properties, emphoutput quality and inference acceleration, from a theoretical perspective.

• Low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum computation by gauging logical operators [0.7673339435080445]
  Recent progress has uncovered quantum error-correcting codes with sparse connectivity requirements and constant qubit overhead. Existing schemes for fault-tolerant logical measurement do not always achieve low qubit overhead. We present a low-overhead method to implement fault-tolerant logical measurement in a quantum error-correcting code by treating the logical operator as a symmetry and gauging it.

  We give scalable, explicit digital quantum algorithms to simulate the lattice Schwinger model in both NISQ and fault-tolerant settings. In lattice units, we find a Schwinger model on $N/2$ physical sites with coupling constant $x-1/2$ and electric field cutoff $x-1/2Lambda$. We estimate observables which we cost in both the NISQ and fault-tolerant settings by assuming a simple target observable---the mean pair density.

• Term Grouping and Travelling Salesperson for Digital Quantum Simulation [6.945601123742983]
  Digital simulation of quantum dynamics by evaluating the time evolution of a Hamiltonian is the initially proposed application of quantum computing. The large number of quantum gates required for emulating the complete second quantization form of the Hamiltonian makes such an approach unsuitable for near-term devices. We propose a new term ordering strategy, max-commute-tsp, that simultaneously mitigates both algorithmic and physical errors.
