Fault Simulation And Testing Of Quantum Computing Circuits

Abstract: Recent research has demonstrated that quantum computers can solve certain
types of problems substantially faster than the known classical algorithms. These
problems include factoring integers, searching database and certain physics simulations.
Practical quantum computation requires overcoming the problems of environmental noise
and operational errors, problems which appear to be much more severe than in classical
computation due to the inherent fragility of quantum superposition involving many
degrees of freedom. With the advent of efficient quantum algorithms and technological
advances, design of quantum circuits has gained importance. Evaluation of quantum
errors based on quantum circuit fault models is of vital importance for evaluation of the
performance of quantum circuits. The peculiar nature of quantum decoherence that leads
to quantum errors mandates completion of all the quantum gate operations within a time
bound, hence reduction in the gate count and the number of circuit levels leads to
lowering the errors and the overall cost in quantum circuits.

The key topics of this tutorial will be:

Introduction to the basic theories of Quantum Computation.

Introduction to quantum computing logic gates and circuits.

Introduction to probabilistic quantum circuit faults.

Gate level quantum fault models.

Transfer Matrices for quantum fault analysis.

Computation techniques for testing quantum circuits.

Testing for errors in target and control qubits.

Testing of benchmark quantum circuits.

Expected enrollment: These tutorial will certainly attract people interested in quantum
computing, nanocomputing, VLSI design and testing, Digital logic synthesis, Computer
Architecture.
