We consider the problem of finding a near ground state of a $p$-spin model with Rademacher couplings by means of a low-depth circuit. As a direct extension of the authors' recent work [Gamarnik, Jagannath, Wein 2020], we establish that any…

The threshold theorem promises a path to fault-tolerant quantum computation, provided the physical error rate is below a critical threshold. While transversal gates efficiently implement logical operations, they propagate errors and can…

In this paper, we study the close relationship between Reed-Muller codes and single-qubit phase gates from the perspective of $T$-count optimization. We prove that minimizing the number of $T$ gates in an $n$-qubit quantum circuit over CNOT…

A set N is called a "weak epsilon-net" (with respect to convex sets) for a finite set X in R^d if N intersects every convex set that contains at least epsilon*|X| points of X. For every fixed d>=2 and every r>=1 we construct sets X in R^d…

The performance of an error correcting code is evaluated by its error probability, rate, and en/decoding complexity. The performance of a series of codes is evaluated by, as the block lengths approach infinity, whether their error…
