• Abstract: We show that global optimal control can drastically suppress the impact of decoherence in globally driven superconducting quantum computing architectures, taking as a prototype a recently proposed quasi-two-dimensional ladder geometry. Using a tensor-network-based approach, we quantify how amplitude-damping and dephasing channels degrade the flow of quantum information along the ladder and the fidelity of one- and two-qubit gate operations. We then demonstrate that shaping the global drive compresses the gate sequences by an order of magnitude in time, restoring high gate fidelities. We stress that this mitigation is far from trivial: in a globally driven processor, dissipation acts on every physical qubit---including those outside the logical register that sustain the surrounding ordered phases---so its impact cannot be suppressed by protecting an isolated subsystem, and is instead overcome purely through the temporal shaping of the global drive.

  Universal control over a bosonic degree of freedom is key in the quest for quantum-based technologies. Here we consider a single ancillary two-level system, interacting with the bosonic mode of interest via a driven quantum Rabi model. We show that it is sufficient to induce the deterministic realization of a large class of Gaussian and non-Gaussian gates, which in turn provide universal bosonic control.
