Postquantum Cryptography—State of the Art

2017 · IEEE Security & Privacy

Because of public-key cryptography’s relevance and quantum computers’ increasingly realistic threat to this technology, it’s necessary to come up with practical and secure postquantum cryptography. This special issue aims to present the state of the …

Reducing the CNOT count for Clifford+T circuits on NISQ architectures

2022

While mapping a quantum circuit to the physical layer one has to consider the numerous constraints imposed by the underlying hardware architecture. Connectivity of the physical qubits is one such constraint that restricts two-qubit operations, …

Synthesis and Arithmetic of Single Qutrit Circuits

2023 · arXiv (Cornell University)

In this paper we study single qutrit circuits consisting of words over the Clifford$+D$ cyclotomic gate set, where $D=\text{diag}(\pmξ^{a},\pmξ^{b},\pmξ^{c})$, $ξ$ is a primitive $9$-th root of unity and $a,b,c$ are integers. We characterize classes of …
