Abstract

Holonomic quantum computation (HQC) realizes quantum gates through non-Abelian geometric phases, providing an experimentally accessible approach to quantum control. While the nonadiabatic HQC framework has been extensively developed for three-level $\Lambda$ systems encoding qubits, its systematic extension to higher-dimensional qudits remains largely unexplored. In this work, we generalize nonadiabatic HQC to a $d$-pod configuration, where a single excited state is coupled to $d$ ground states, the latter forming the computational subspace. This scheme enables universal holonomic single- and two-qudit gates using only optical or microwave pulses on trapped atoms or ions, offering an efficient route to implement a discrete universal gate set with minimal pulse coordination. As an explicit example, we analyze in detail the qutrit ($d=3$) case, demonstrating compact realizations of single- and two-qutrit holonomic gates, each gate requiring at most two loops in the Grassmannian generated by at most three pulses.

Collective Quantum State Preparation Is Nonadditive

Quantum state preparation is a basic primitive of quantum computation and control, but its resource cost is usually analyzed for one target state or under an independent-copy construction. Here we study the many-copy problem under weighted Pauli control, where a Pauli-product rotation $e^{i\phi P}$ is charged by its ro...

Holonomic quantum gates via continuous measurement in bosonic codes: GKP and cat states

We apply continuous measurement-based holonomic quantum computation (CMHQC) to bosonic quantum error-correcting codes and develop explicit protocols for both four-component cat codes and Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) codes. In this framework, a continuously monitored time-dependent codespace undergoes a closed trajec...

Classical and Quantum Simulation of All-to-All Quantum Dynamics in Logarithmic Space

We study both the classical and the quantum complexity of the problem of estimating disorder-averaged quench dynamics for all-to-all spin Hamiltonians such as quantum Hopfield, Sherrington--Kirkpatrick (SK) or Dicke-type models. Disorder averaging restores permutation invariance in this setting, so states of $N$ spins...

A physical and universal model of bosonic computations with Solovay-Kitaev theorem

Bosonic quantum systems are among the leading architectures for quantum information processing, offering continuous-variable degrees of freedom with strong error-correction capabilities. However, standard bosonic quantum computation models such as the Lloyd-Braunstein [Lloyd and Braunstein, 1999] and hybrid oscillator-...

From Steane to A7: Quantum Codes from Invariant States

We construct a two-parameter family of single-error-correcting seven-ququart codes with transversal $\tilde{A_7}$ symmetry, realizing the finite component of a two-qubit super-golden gate set. These $((7,4,3))_4$ codes encode two logical qubits and support non-Clifford operations by applying the same gate to each physi...
