• Abstract: Pauli Check Sandwiching (PCS) is an error mitigation scheme that uses pairs of parity checks to detect errors in the payload circuit. While increasing the number of check pairs improves error detection, it also introduces additional noise to the circuit and exponentially increases the required sampling size. To address these limitations, we propose a novel error mitigation scheme, Pauli Check Extrapolation (PCE), which integrates PCS with an extrapolation technique similar to Zero-Noise Extrapolation (ZNE). However, instead of extrapolating to the `zero-noise' limit, as is done in ZNE, PCE extrapolates to the `maximum check' limit--the number of check pairs theoretically required to achieve unit fidelity. In this study, we focus on applying a linear model for extrapolation and also derive a more general exponential ansatz based on the Markovian error model. We demonstrate the effectiveness of PCE by using it to mitigate errors in the shadow estimation protocol, particularly for states prepared by the variational quantum eigensolver (VQE). Our results show that this method can achieve higher fidelities than the state-of-the-art Robust Shadow (RS) estimation scheme, while significantly reducing the number of required samples by eliminating the need for a calibration procedure. We validate these findings on both fully-connected topologies and simulated IBM hardware backends.

  A form of error mitigation called zero noise extrapolation (ZNE) can decrease an algorithm's sensitivity to these errors without increasing the number of required qubits. We explore different methods for integrating this error mitigation technique into the Variational Quantum Eigensolver (VQE) algorithm. Our results show that the efficacy of this error mitigation technique depends on choosing the correct implementation for a given device architecture.

  Quantum error mitigation (QEM) is a class of promising techniques for reducing the computational error of variational quantum algorithms. We consider a practical channel inversion strategy based on Monte Carlo sampling, which introduces additional computational error. We show that when the computational error is small compared to the dynamic range of the error-free results, it scales with the square root of the number of gates.
