Straddling-gates problem in multipartite quantum systems (2110.06840v2)

Published 13 Oct 2021 in quant-ph and cs.CC

Abstract: We study a variant of quantum circuit complexity, the binding complexity: Consider a $n$-qubit system divided into two sets of $k_1$, $k_2$ qubits each ($k_1\leq k_2$) and gates within each set are free; what is the least cost of two-qubit gates ''straddling'' the sets for preparing an arbitrary quantum state, assuming no ancilla qubits allowed? Firstly, our work suggests that, without making assumptions on the entanglement spectrum, $\Theta(2{k_1})$ straddling gates always suffice. We then prove any $\text{U}(2n)$ unitary synthesis can be accomplished with $\Theta(4{k_1})$ straddling gates. Furthermore, we extend our results to multipartite systems, and show that any $m$-partite Schmidt decomposable state has binding complexity linear in $m$, which hints its multi-separable property. This result not only resolves an open problem posed by Vijay Balasubramanian, who was initially motivated by the ''Complexity=Volume'' conjecture in quantum gravity, but also offers realistic applications in distributed quantum computation in the near future.
