Enhanced Purification Protocol for Entangled Systems

Due to their unpredictable and delicate nature, quantum states need protection from corruption and error generation. Purification protocols are intended to reduce error and prevent corruption. These errors are associated with bit flips and phase errors. Different methods are used to detect errors and increase the trustworthiness of a system. By utilizing the propagation of error within a quantum circuit, purification can be done in such a way as to minimize resources. Two quantum circuits for the different types of errors were created and then put in tandem and ran through a simulator based on varying initial conditions. In my talk, I will show how these two circuits can be used jointly for a purification protocol that can detect a majority of errors, while minimizing the use of quantum resources
