Roads towards fault-tolerant universal quantum computation

ET Campbell, BM Terhal, C Vuillot - Nature, 2017 - nature.com
A practical quantum computer must not merely store information, but also process it. To
prevent errors introduced by noise from multiplying and spreading, a fault-tolerant …

Focus beyond quadratic speedups for error-corrected quantum advantage

R Babbush, JR McClean, M Newman, C Gidney… - PRX quantum, 2021 - APS
In this perspective we discuss conditions under which it would be possible for a modest fault-
tolerant quantum computer to realize a runtime advantage by executing a quantum …

A game of surface codes: Large-scale quantum computing with lattice surgery

D Litinski - Quantum, 2019 - quantum-journal.org
Given a quantum gate circuit, how does one execute it in a fault-tolerant architecture with as
little overhead as possible? In this paper, we discuss strategies for surface-code quantum …

Simulation of quantum circuits by low-rank stabilizer decompositions

S Bravyi, D Browne, P Calpin, E Campbell… - Quantum, 2019 - quantum-journal.org
Recent work has explored using the stabilizer formalism to classically simulate quantum
circuits containing a few non-Clifford gates. The computational cost of such methods is …
