How does measurement calibration work?

One of the possible ways to improve the results of an experiment on the IBM machine using the Qiskit language is to use the measurement calibration methods. This is the link to the documentation. I ...

How to implement if statement based on measurement results in qiskit?

I tried to implement three qubit bit flip code in qiskit and need to get the result of measurements and then apply recovery quantum operations conditioned on the measurement results. The following is ...

Where does the "correction" in quantum error correction occur, specifically when using repetition codes?

I'm reading the part of the qiskit textbook that deals with this (https://qiskit.org/textbook/ch-quantum-hardware/error-correction-repetition-code.html) and so far it seems as though they're just ...

How to create the logical $|0_L\rangle$ state for the Steane's 7-qubit code?

I don't know how to prepare using Qiskit the following state in order to implement a Steane's 7-qubit code circuit (I omit the normalization factor): \begin{align*} |0_L\rangle =&|0000000\rangle+|...

Get result measurement into a circuit with Qiskit

I'm trying to implement the three qubit bit flip code in Qiskit. Therefore, I need to get the result of a measure of two ancilla qubits, to deduce which gate I need to use do recover my logical qubit....

How the real IBM quantum computers apply arbitrary Rz(θ) gate rotation? [closed]

I want to ask the following questions: (1) The basis gate set of IBM quantum computers is { Id, Rz(θ),√X, X, CNOT, reset}. Somebody said that IBM didn’t really apply Rz(θ) gate on the machine. The ...

How to calculate the generators of a list of stabilizer?

Let's say we have a list of stabilizers: {'YZY*', 'XYY*', 'YZYZ', 'Z*Z*', '*XZ*', 'XZX*', 'ZX*Z', 'XZXZ', 'YYX*', 'Z*ZZ'}. Is there any existed formula or function (eg. in qiskit) that can calculate ...

is cirq suitable for simulation of quantum error correction?

I experimented with stim and qiskit for QECC simulations. They both have limitations : for example stim has no support for non-clifford operations (qiskit does); qiskit has no support for multiple ...

Keep receiving Error - AttributeError: 'QuantumCircuit' object has no attribute 'save_statevector'

I am attempting to code a feed-forward simulation of a QECC in Qiskit. Qiskit (to my knowledge) does not directly support feed-forward simulation, so I attempted a work-around. I call the simulator ...

How do I interpret the readout error for a quantum computer?

For example, the ibmqx2 computer has the most recent readout error of $4.40 \cdot 10^{-2}$. Does this mean per 1000 measurements, 44 faulty results exist?
