The primary methods for assessing quantum circuit fidelity include direct fidelity estimation and mirror circuit fidelity estimation. The former is challenging to implement in practice, while the latter requires substantial classical computational resources and numerous experimental runs. In this paper, we propose a fidelity estimation method based on Layer Interleaved Randomized Benchmarking, which decomposes a complex quantum circuit into multiple sublayers. By independently evaluating the fidelity of each layer, one can comprehensively assess the performance of the entire quantum circuit. This layered evaluation strategy not only enhances accuracy but also effectively identifies and analyzes errors in specific quantum gates or qubits through independent layer evaluation. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed method improves circuit fidelity by an average of 6.8% and 4.1% compared to Layer Randomized Benchmarking and Interleaved Randomized Benchmarking methods in a thermal relaxation noise environment, and by 40% compared to Layer RB in a bit-flip noise environment. Moreover, the method detects preset faulty quantum gates in circuits generated by the Munich Quantum Toolkit Benchmark, verifying the model’s validity and providing a new tool for faulty gate detection in quantum circuits.展开更多

By conducting impedance measurements between neighboring nodes, we identify both topologically non-trivial and trivial phases within the circuit's admittance band dispersion under open boundary conditions(OBC). Our analysis of complex admittance spectra reveals differences when comparing circuits with periodic boundary conditions(PBC) to those with OBC.Furthermore, we observe Z_(2) skin effects and Majorana zero modes in the topologically non-trivial phases, which are robust against disorders. Notably, the admittance spectra exhibit remarkable sensitivity to the attenuation of the boundary coupling strength. This AC circuit system serves as a promising platform for investigating topological phenomena, opening avenues for the development of functional devices across various application scenarios.展开更多

Our analysis of complex admittance spectra reveals differences when comparing circuits with periodic boundary conditions(PBC) to those with OBC.Furthermore, we observe Z_(2) skin effects and Majorana zero modes in the topologically non-trivial phases, which are robust against disorders. Notably, the admittance spectra exhibit remarkable sensitivity to the attenuation of the boundary coupling strength. This AC circuit system serves as a promising platform for investigating topological phenomena, opening avenues for the development of functional devices across various application scenarios.
文摘Zhang Chengfeng governed the Gui-yi Circuit in the late ninth century.However,the circuit experienced a gradual decline by the early tenth century.Cao Yijin consolidated political power as his successor and brought about the stabilization and further development of the Gui-yi Circuit.Through a close analysis of historical sources,this article reconstructs the nearly twenty-five-year rule of Zhang by dividing it into three distinct phases:the restoration and personal rule period,the Golden Mountain Kingdom of Western Han period,and the Dunhuang Kingdom of Western Han.It then investigates the political strategies employed by Cao Yijin to consolidate power,including marriage alliances,diplomatic rapprochement with Central Plains dynasties,and the integration of local bureaucratic elites.Ultimately,these efforts enabled him to break free from the dominance of the Ganzhou Uyghur and to restore stability and prosperity in Guazhou and Shazhou.
