M.S. Paper Title: Exploiting Long-Distance Interactions and Tolerating Atom Loss in Neutral Atom Quantum Architectures
Abstract: While many quantum technologies are currently in development, all are prone to high levels of noise and none have found a true path to scalability. As a result, many software optimizations for quantum program are employed to decrease error and increase the possibility of success. At times, these software approaches can be used to mitigate major disadvantages on quantum hardware.
Neutral Atom (NA) architectures are among the possible candidates for developing scalable quantum technology. Neutral atom systems offers several benefits such as long distance interactions, and native multiqubit gates, such as the 3 qubit Toffoli gate, to reduce communication overhead, gate count, and depth of quantum programs. All of these are important metrics to running quantum programs with noisy operations.
However, atoms in an Neutral Atom array can randomly be lost over the course of a program's execution, during measurement, a combined 2% chance per run, or due to atom collisions, a 0.0068% chance. The loss of an atom used in computation has a destructive outcome on a result, requiring a full reloading of the array, which is a slow process to perform after a loss. This works explores, in depth, several different coping mechanisms to increase the resilience of a neutral atom system to atom loss. These mechanisms are much faster than the time necessary to reload an array of atoms or a full recompilation of the program, dramatically reducing overall computation time, allowing neutral atoms to be a viable candidate for scalable quantum computing.
