quantum key distribution (QKD) based on the laws of quantum physics allows the secure distribution of secret keys over an insecure channel. Unfortunately, imperfect implementations of QKD compromise its information-theoretical security. Measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (MDI QKD) is a promising approach to remove all side channels from the measurement unit, which is regarded as the “Achilles’ heel” of QKD. An essential assumption in MDI QKD is, however, that the sources are trusted. Here we experimentally demonstrate that a practical source based on a semiconductor laser diode is vulnerable to a laser-seeding attack, in which light injected from the communication line into the laser results in an increase of the intensities of the prepared states. The unnoticed increase of intensity may compromise the security of QKD, as we show theoretically for the prepare-and-measure decoy-state BB84 and MDI QKD protocols. Our theoretical security analysis is general and can be applied to any vulnerability that increases the intensity of the emitted pulses. Moreover, a laser-seeding attack might be launched as well against decoy-state-based quantum cryptographic protocols beyond QKD.

Variational quantum algorithms (VQAs) have been successfully applied to quantum approximate optimization algorithms, variational quantum compiling and quantum machine learning models. The performances of VQAs largely depend on the architecture of parameterized quantum circuits (PQCs). quantum architecture search (QAS) aims to automate the design of PQCs in different VQAs with classical optimization algorithms. However, current QAS algorithms do not use prior experiences and search the quantum architecture from scratch for each new task, which is inefficient and time consuming. In this paper, we propose a meta quantum architecture search (MetaQAS) algorithm, which learns good initialization heuristics of the architecture (i.e., meta-architecture), along with the meta-parameters of quantum gates from a number of training tasks such that they can adapt to new tasks with a small number of gradient updates, which leads to fast learning on new tasks. The proposed MetaQAS can be used with arbitrary gradient-based QAS algorithms. Simulation results of variational quantum compiling on three- and four-qubit circuits show that the architectures optimized by MetaQAS converge much faster than a state-of-the-art gradient-based QAS algorithm, namely DQAS. MetaQAS also achieves a better solution than DQAS after fine-tuning of gate parameters. Copyright © 2021, The Authors. All rights reserved.

quantum compiling aims to construct a quantum circuit V by quantum gates drawn from a native gate alphabet, which is functionally equivalent to the target unitary U. It is a crucial stage for the running of quantum algorithms on noisy intermediate-scale quantum (NISQ) devices. However, the space for structure exploration of quantum circuit is enormous, resulting in the requirement of human expertise, hundreds of experimentations or modifications from existing quantum circuits. In this paper, we propose a variational quantum compiling (VQC) algorithm based on reinforcement learning (RL), in order to automatically design the structure of quantum circuit for VQC with no human intervention. An agent is trained to sequentially select quantum gates from the native gate alphabet and the qubits they act on by double Q-learning with Ε-greedy exploration strategy and experience replay. At first, the agent randomly explores a number of quantum circuits with different structures, and then iteratively discovers structures with higher performance on the learning task. Simulation results show that the proposed method can make exact compilations with less quantum gates compared to previous VQC algorithms. It can reduce the errors of quantum algorithms due to decoherence process and gate noise in NISQ devices, and enable quantum algorithms especially for complex algorithms to be executed within coherence time. © 2021, CC BY.

quantum Architecture Search (QAS) is a promising approach for designing quantum circuits specifically tailored for variational quantum algorithms (VQAs). However, existing QAS algorithms require calculating the ground-truth performances of a substantial number of quantum circuits during the search process, rendering them computationally demanding and limiting their applicability to large-scale quantum circuits. Recently, a predictor-based QAS has been proposed to address this challenge by estimating circuit performance directly based on their structures using a predictor trained on a set of labeled quantum circuits. However, the predictor is trained by purely supervised learning, which suffers from poor generalization ability when labeled training circuits are scarce. It is highly time-consuming to obtain a substantial number of labeled quantum circuits because the gate parameters of quantum circuits need to be optimized until convergence to obtain their ground-truth performances. To overcome these limitations, we propose GSQAS, a graph self-supervised QAS that trains a predictor by self-supervised learning. Specifically, we first pre-train a graph encoder using a well-designed pretext task on a large number of unlabeled quantum circuits, aiming to generate meaningful representations of quantum circuits. Subsequently, the downstream predictor is trained on a small set of quantum circuits' representations and their corresponding labels. Once the encoder is trained, it becomes applicable to various downstream tasks. To effectively encode spatial topology information and avoid huge dimensions of feature vectors for large-scale quantum circuits, we propose a graph-based encoding scheme for quantum circuits. Simulation results on QAS for variational quantum eigensolver and quantum state classification demonstrate that GSQAS outperforms the state-of-the-art predictor-based QAS, yielding superior performance with fewer labeled circuits. © 2023, The Authors.

Improved rate-distance trade-offs for quantum codes with restricted connectivity

For quantum error-correcting codes to be realizable, it is important that the qubits subject to the code constraints exhibit some form of limited connectivity. The works of Bravyi & Terhal [6] (BT) and Bravyi, Poulin & Terhal [5] (BPT) established that geometric locality constrains code properties—for instance Jn, k, dK quantum codes defined by local checks on the D-dimensional lattice must obey kd2/(D−1) ≤ O(n). Baspin and Krishna [3] studied the more general question of how the connectivity graph associated with a quantum code constrains the code parameters. These trade-offs apply to a richer class of codes compared to the BPT and BT bounds, which only capture geometrically-local codes. We extend and improve this work, establishing a tighter dimension-distance trade-off as a function of the size of separators in the connectivity graph. We also obtain a distance bound that covers all stabilizer codes with a particular separation profile, rather than only LDPC codes. Copyright © 2023, The Authors. All rights reserved.

quantum Architecture Search (QAS) is a promising approach to designing quantum circuits for variational quantum algorithms (VQAs). However, existing QAS algorithms require to evaluate a large number of quantum circuits during the search process, which makes them computationally demanding and limits their applications to large-scale quantum circuits. Recently, predictor-based QAS has been proposed to alleviate this problem by directly estimating the performances of circuits according to their structures with a predictor trained on a set of labeled quantum circuits. However, the predictor is trained by purely supervised learning, which suffers from poor generalization ability when labeled training circuits are scarce.

quantum query complexity is pivotal in the analysis of quantum algorithms, encompassing wellknown examples like search and period-finding algorithms. These algorithms typically involve a sequence of unitary operations and oracle calls dependent on an input variable. In this study, we introduce a variational learning approach to explore quantum query complexity. Our method employs an efficient parameterization of the unitary operations and utilizes a loss function derived from the algorithm's error probability. We apply this technique to various quantum query complexities, notably devising a new algorithm that resolves the 5-bit Hamming modulo problem with four queries, addressing an open question from arXiv:2112.14682. This finding is corroborated by a Semidefinite Programming (SDP) approach. Our numerical method exhibits superior memory efficiency compared to SDP and can identify quantum query algorithms that require a smaller workspace register dimension, an aspect not optimized by SDP. These advancements present a significant step forward in the practical application and understanding of quantum query algorithms. Copyright © 2022, The Authors. All rights reserved.

With the long-term goal of studying models of quantum gravity in the lab, we propose holographic teleportation protocols that can be readily executed in table-top experiments. These protocols exhibit similar behavior to that seen in the recent traversable wormhole constructions of [1, 2]: information that is scrambled into one half of an entangled system will, following a weak coupling between the two halves, unscramble into the other half. We introduce the concept of teleportation by size to capture how the physics of operator-size growth naturally leads to information transmission. The transmission of a signal through a semi-classical holographic wormhole corresponds to a rather special property of the operator-size distribution we call size winding. For more general systems (which may not have a clean emergent geometry), we argue that imperfect size winding is a generalization of the traversable wormhole phenomenon. In addition, a form of signaling continues to function at high temperature and at large times for generic chaotic systems, even though it does not correspond to a signal going through a geometrical wormhole, but rather to an interference effect involving macroscopically different emergent geometries. Finally, we outline implementations feasible with current technology in two experimental platforms: Rydberg atom arrays and trapped ions. Copyright © 2019, The Authors. All rights reserved.

The Petz recovery channel plays an important role in quantum information science as an operation that approximately reverses the effect of a quantum channel. The pretty good measurement is a special case of the Petz recovery channel, and it allows for near-optimal state discrimination. A hurdle to the experimental realization of these vaunted theoretical tools is the lack of a systematic and efficient method to implement them. This Letter sets out to rectify this lack: Using the recently developed tools of quantum singular value transformation and oblivious amplitude amplification, we provide a quantum algorithm to implement the Petz recovery channel when given the ability to perform the channel that one wishes to reverse. Moreover, we prove that, in some sense, our quantum algorithm’s usage of the channel implementation cannot be improved by more than a quadratic factor. Our quantum algorithm also provides a procedure to perform pretty good measurements when given multiple copies of the states that one is trying to distinguish.

Distributed Shor’s algorithm

Shor’s algorithm is one of the most important quantum algorithm proposed by Peter Shor [Proceedings of the 35th Annual Symposium on Foundations of computer Science, 1994, pp. 124–134]. Shor’s algorithm can factor a large integer with certain probability and costs polynomial time in the length of the input integer. The key step of Shor’s algorithm is the order-finding algorithm. Specifically, given an L-bit integer N, we first randomly pick an integer a with gcd(a,N) = 1, the order of a modulo N is the smallest positive integer r such that ar ≡ 1(modN). The order-finding algorithm in Shor’s algorithm first uses quantum operations to obtain an estimation of s/r for some s ∈ {0,1,···,r − 1}, then r is obtained by means of classical algorithms. In this paper, we propose a distributed Shor’s algorithm. The difference between our distributed algorithm and the traditional order-finding algorithm is that we use two quantum computers separately to estimate partial bits of s/r for some s ∈ {0,1,···,r − 1}. To ensure their measuring results correspond to the same , we need employ quantum teleportation. We integrate the measuring results via classical post-processing. After that, we get an estimation of s/r with high precision. Compared with the r traditional Shor’s algorithm that uses multiple controlling qubits, our algorithm reduces nearly L/2 qubits and reduces the circuit depth of each computer.
