Abstract

An important problem in quantum information is the practical demonstration of non-classical long-range order on quantum computers. One of the best known examples of a quantum system with non-classical long-range order is a superconductor. Here we achieve Cooper pairing of qubits on a quantum computer to represent superconducting or superfluid states. We rigorously confirm the quantum long-range order by measuring the large O(N)O(N) eigenvalue of the two-electron reduced density matrix. The demonstration of maximal quantum long-range order is an important step towards more complex modeling of superconductivity and superfluidity as well as other phenomena with significant quantum long-range order on quantum computers.
