Composite Pulses in Phase Space: Measurement-Free Gate Teleportation with Hybrid Oscillator-Qubit Systems

ORAL

Abstract

The quantum operations required to manipulate states encoded in the phase space of an oscillator can be challenging to implement. Recent experimental work has realized universal control of a quantum system by combining fast single-qubit rotations with high-fidelity echoed conditional displacements (ECD), indicating the potential of achieving universal quantum computation with continuous variable (CV) qubits using two-level ancillary qubits. In this talk, we present a framework consisting of entangling and disentangling gadgets for a hybrid oscillator-qubit system that provides an analytical method for constructing these ECD-based circuits. Our method can be seen as composite pulse sequences in phase space for operations which entangle and disentangle oscillator-qubit states without any measurement. By combining these gadgets with single-qubit rotations, one can achieve measurement-free control over certain CV states. As an example, we introduce a measurement-free gate teleportation scheme that provides universal control on finite-energy GKP qubits.
