Abstract:
A quantum computer controller receives a quantum circuit comprising circuit slices. The first slice comprises a past causal cone of a first system qubit wire at a fully evolved level of the circuit. An i-th slice contains all gates that are within a past causal cone of a system qubit wire that reaches the fully evolved level in slice i that are not in the past causal cone of a system qubit wire that reaches the fully evolved level in slice i−j. The controller causes execution of the i-th slice using the physical qubits; causes a physical qubit that was evolved along a system qubit wire to the fully evolved level via execution of the i-th slice to be reinitialized and reintroduced onto a system qubit wire at a base level of the i+m-th slice; and causes the quantum computer to use the physical qubit to execute the i+m-th slice.
