QUANTUM COMPUTATION SUPPORT METHOD AND INFORMATION PROCESSING APPARATUS

原文（中国語）

An information processing apparatus causes a quantum computer to perform a first gate operation in accordance with an ancilla state generation circuit representing a procedure of generating a code including a logical qubit representing an ancilla state and a gauge qubit representing a redundant degree of freedom other than the ancilla state. Next, the information processing apparatus causes the quantum computer to perform a second gate operation in accordance with an error detection circuit representing a procedure of detecting an error occurring in a plurality of physical qubits constituting the code generated by the first gate operation. Then, the information processing apparatus determines the presence or absence of the error on the basis of a measurement value obtained by the second gate operation, the measurement value indicating the state of the gauge qubit.
