Twirling and Hamiltonian Engineering via Dynamical Decoupling for GKP Quantum Computing (2010.13853v3)

Abstract: I introduce an energy constrained approximate twirling operation that can be used to diagonalize effective logical channels in GKP quantum error correction, project states into the GKP code space and construct a dynamical decoupling sequence with fast displacements pulses to distill the GKP stabilizer Hamiltonians from a suitable substrate-Hamiltonian. The latter is given by an LC-oscillator comprising a superinductance in parallel to a Josephson Junction. This platform in principle allows for protected GKP quantum computing without explicit stabilizer measurements or state-reset by dynamically generating a `passively' stabilized GKP qubit.
