Can IBM Quantum hardware handle any CSWAP at all?

I am designing quantum algorithms where the quantum circuit uses CSWAP gates a lot. The result is very noisy on the quantum hardwares. So I designed really simple circuits to test whether it is indeed ...

How does error accumulate when entangling two distant qubits with limited connectivity?

My goal is to minimize accumulated error when entangling two qubits that cannot be entangled via a single native two qubit gate operation. I have a coupling map/graph for the qubits of an IBM quantum ...

Exploiting virtual-$Z_{\theta}$ corrections in QEC

The work done by IBM Researchers to perform virtual-$Z_{\theta}$ gates allowed them to: achieving zero-time relative phase shifts; correcting $Z_{\phi}$ errors occurring when applying some gates -- e....

problem with parametrized circuits

I used a circuit with one parametrized gate U(theta, phi, lambda), than I fixed the parameters with qc.bind_parameters and it's worked well. But the only step that don't work is the execution in a ...

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 ...

Can the ancilla for Qiskit's mcx with mode="recursion" be dirty?

I think their implementation is close to the one from here which does use a dirty ancilla, but I just want to make sure

CNOT error rate of 1 in IBM backends

I have noticed that some CNOT gates (for instance, between qubits 1 and 2 in ibmq_casablanca) display an error rate of 1 while typical error rates are of course ...

Why is a 15-qubit IBM quantum computer not working correctly?

I just wanted to implement an algorithm for adding two 2-bit binary numbers. And it works, but only on an IBM 32-qubit simulator. And on a real 15-qubit computer, ibmq_16_melbourne, it produces very ...

Qiskit: 3 applications of identity with arbitrary SU(2) is universal?

We know that the CNOT gate together with arbitrary SU(2) gates can be used to perfectly implement arbitrary SU(4) gates with 3 applications of the CNOT. I am using the Qiskit library and testing how ...

Mechanism of measurement in IBM quantum devices

I am trying to find out about the mechanism of measurement in IBM Q devices. To be specific, if I apply two Hadamard gates on the first qubit and identity on the second then is it possible to ...
