FAU LMQ NewsFAU LMQ Research Spotlight: AI-Discovered Fault-Tolerant Quantum Circuits
Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain problems much faster than classical computers, but they are also very sensitive to errors. Quantum error correction (QEC) is needed to keep errors in check. Unfortunately, some errors can spread in ways that QEC cannot fix. To handle this, fault-tolerant protocols use special “flag qubits”, quantum bits […]Quantum computers have the potential to solve certain problems much faster than classical computers, but they are also very sensitive to errors.
