A Google-led research team has demonstrated a surface-code logical qubit operating below the error-correction threshold, showing that logical errors can fall rapidly as the code scales up. The ...
A common type of error-correcting mechanism in biology is called kinetic proofreading. For example, if errors turn up when cells are making new DNA, enzymes can cut out incorrect nucleotides. They can ...
In September, Microsoft made an unusual combination of announcements. It demonstrated progress with quantum error correction, something that will be needed for the ...
Quantum Computer science legend, Dr John Preskill, just delivered a Q2B Quantum computer 2023 keynote talk on the state of Quantum Error correction with quantum ...
Error-corrected magic: Clifford circuits attain universality – that is, the ability to compute any function that quantum theory permits – upon injection of special states called magic states.
Researchers from Google have demonstrated a new generation of quantum computer, called Willow, which is able to run its random circuit sampling (RCS) benchmark significantly faster than a ...
