Claim 14:
15. A computer program product for facilitating strategic pausing for quantum state leakage mitigation, the computer program product comprising a computer-readable memory having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to:
detect, by the processor, a quantum state leakage associated with one or more qubits; and
generate, by the processor and in response to detecting the quantum state leakage, a time pause prior to execution of a quantum circuit on the one or more qubits;
perform, by the processor, one or more quantum state measurements on the one or more qubits during the time pause, wherein the one or more quantum state measurements binarily distinguish between a ground state and excited states; and
initiate, by the processor, during the time pause, execution the quantum circuit on the one or more qubits in response to the one or more quantum state measurements indicating that the one or more qubits are in the ground state.
