Improving the speed of variational quantum algorithms for quantum error correction by Zoratti, Fabio, De Palma, Giacomo, Kiani, Bobak, Nguyen, Quynh T., Marvian, Milad, Lloyd, Seth, Giovannetti, Vittorio

“…At variance with other quantum distances typically adopted in quantum information processing, QW1 lacks the unitary invariance property which makes it a suitable tool to avoid getting trapped in local minima. Focusing on a simple noise model for which an exact QEC solution is known and can be used as a theoretical benchmark, we run a series of numerical tests that show how, guiding the VQA search through the QW1, can indeed significantly increase both the probability of a successful training and the fidelity of the recovered state, with respect to the results one obtains when using conventional approaches.…”
