Grover's unstructured search algorithm is one of the best examples to date for the superiority of quantum algorithms over classical ones. Its applicability, however, has been questioned by many due to its oracular nature. We propose a mechanism to carry out a quantum adiabatic variant of Grover's search algorithm using a single bosonic particle placed in an optical lattice. By studying the scaling of the gap and relevant matrix element in various spatial dimensions, we show that a quantum speedup can already be gained in three dimensions. We argue that the suggested scheme is realizable with present-day experimental capabilities.

One can implement fast two-qubit entangling gates by exploiting the Rydberg blockade. Although various theoretical schemes have been proposed, experimenters have not yet been able to demonstrate two-atom gates of high fidelity due to experimental constraints. We propose a novel scheme, which only uses a single Rydberg pulse illuminating both atoms, for the construction of neutral-atom controlled-phase gates. In contrast to the existing schemes, our approach is simpler to implement and requires neither individual addressing of atoms nor adiabatic procedures. With parameters estimated based on actual experimental scenarios, a gate fidelity higher than 0.99 is achievable. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2016

We propose a scheme for quantum state transfer within the high-dimensional state subspaces between any two nodes in a quantum network. The states are encoded in the collective ground states of multiple atoms. The transfer processes are controlled by only applying external laser pulses. The prominent feature of the scheme is that the state transfer of any dimension can be achieved through virtually coupling all the excitations of the total system.

Lately, much attention has been given to quantum algorithms that solve pattern recognition tasks in machine learning. Many of these quantum machine learning algorithms try to implement classical models on large-scale universal quantum computers that have access to non-trivial subroutines such as Hamiltonian simulation, amplitude amplification and phase estimation. We approach the problem from the opposite direction and analyse a distance-based classifier that is realised by a simple quantum interference circuit. After state preparation, the circuit only consists of a Hadamard gate as well as two single-qubit measurements, and computes the distance between data points in quantum parallel. We demonstrate the proof of principle using the IBM quantum Experience and analyse the performance of the classifier with numerical simulations. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2017

quantum electronic devices at the single-impurity level demand the understanding of the physical attributes of dopants with an unprecedented accuracy. Germanium-based technologies have been developed recently, creating the necessity to adapt the latest theoretical tools to the unique electronic structure of this material. We investigate basic properties of donors in Ge which are not known experimentally, but are indispensable for qubit implementations. Our approach provides a description of the wave function at multiscale, associating microscopic information from density functional theory and envelope functions from state-of-the-art multivalley effective mass calculations, including a central-cell correction designed to reproduce the energetics of all group-V donor species (P, As, Sb and Bi). With this formalism, we predict the binding energies of negatively ionized donors (D-state). Furthermore, we investigate the signatures of buried donors to be expected from scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The naive assumption that attributes of donor electrons in other semiconductors may be extrapolated to Ge is shown to fail, similarly to earlier attempts to recreate in Si qubits designed for GaAs. Our results suggest that the mature techniques available for qubit realizations may be adapted to germanium to some extent, but the peculiarities of the Ge band structure will demand new ideas for fabrication and control.

Recently, topological excitations obeying non-Abelian statistics attracted intensive attention because of their exotic statistics and possible applications in topological quantumcomputation. In this paper, based on a topological s-wave superfluid on a Peierls lattice, we find fractionalized flux and non-Abelian anyons, and then give a realistic proposal to realize the universal topological quantumcomputation, and especially show how to perform the single-qubit gate-phase-shift gate. Finally, we discuss the experimental realization on optical lattices. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2016

Basing on the analogue Landau levels for a neutral particle possessing an induced electric dipole moment, we show that displaced states can be built in the presence of electric and magnetic fields. Besides, the Berry phase associated with these displaced quantum states is obtained by performing an adiabatic cyclic evolution in series of paths in parameter space. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2016

We report on a systematic analysis of the frequency spectrum of a system often considered for quantum computing purposes, metadevice applications, and high-sensitivity sensors, namely a superconducting loop interrupted by Josephson junctions, the core of an rf-SQUID. We analyze both the cases in which a single junction closes the superconducting loop and the one in which the single junction is replaced by a superconducting interferometer. Perturbation analysis is employed to display the variety of the solutions of the system and the implications of the results for the present interest in fundamental and applied research are analyzed.

Experimental realizations of the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) are currently limited to n <= 3 qubits, which limits experimental tests of theoretical predictions of QFT performance under various noise conditions and their scaling in n. As a possible strategy to overcome this limitation, we show that an exact one-to-one correspondence exists between the QFT and a specially designed optical grating with a curved screen. This device allows the experimental simulation of the QFT, including defects, up to qubit numbers around n = 20, not currently accessible to direct quantum experimentation. The experimental realizability of the device is discussed. Copyright (C) EPLA, 2016

Double-dot exchange-only qubit represents a promising compromise between high speed and simple fabrication in solid-state implementations. A couple of interacting double-dot exchange-only qubits, each composed by three electrons distributed in a double quantum dot, is exploited to realize controlled-NOT (CNOT) operations. The effective Hamiltonian model of the composite system is expressed by only exchange interactions between pairs of spins. Consequently, the evolution operator has a simple form and represents the starting point for the research of sequences of operations that realize CNOT gates. Two different geometrical configurations of the pair are considered, and a numerical mixed simplex and genetic algorithm is used. We compare the nonphysical case in which all the interactions are controllable from the external and the realistic condition in which intra-dot interactions are fixed by the geometry of the system. In the latter case, we find the CNOT sequences for both the geometrical configurations and we considered a qubit system where electrons are electrostatically confined in two quantum dots in a silicon nanowire. The effects of the geometrical sizes of the nanowire and of the gates on the fundamental parameters controlling the qubit are studied by exploiting a spin-density-functional theory-based simulator. Consequently, CNOT gate performances are evaluated.
