FCM: A Fusion-aware Wire Cutting Approach for Measurement-based Quantum Computing
Zewei Mo, Yingheng Li, Aditya Pawar, Xulong Tang, Jun Yang, Youtao Zhang · 2024
Measurement-based quantum computing (MBQC) is a promising quantum computing paradigm that carries out computation through one-way measurements on entangled photon qubits. Practical photonic hardware first generates a 2D mesh of resource states with each being a small number of entangled photon qubits and then exploits fusion operations to connect resource states to scale up the computation. Given that the fusion operation is highly error-prone, it is important to reduce the number of fusions for an MBQC circuit.
