Computation with coherent states via teleportations to and from a quantum bus

Abstract

In this paper, we present results illustrating the power and flexibility of one-bit teleportations in quantum bus computation. We first show a scheme to perform a universal set of gates on continuous variable modes, which we call a quantum bus or qubus, using controlled phase-space rotations, homodyne detection, ancilla qubits, and single-qubit measurement. Within our comparison criteria, the resource usage for this scheme is lower than any previous scheme to date. We then illustrate how one-bit teleportations into a qubus can be used to encode qubit states into a quantum repetition code, which in turn can be used as an efficient method for producing Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger states that c..
