abstract

We consider Kitaev's quantum double model based on a finite group $G$ and describe quantum circuits for (a) preparation of the ground state, (b) creation of anyon pairs separated by an arbitrary distance, and (c) non-destructive topological charge measurement. We show that for any solvable group $G$ all above tasks can be realized by constant-depth adaptive circuits with geometrically local unitary gates and mid-circuit measurements. Each gate may be chosen adaptively depending on previous measurement outcomes. Constant-depth circuits are well suited for implementation on a noisy hardware since it may be possible to execute the entire circuit within the qubit coherence time. Thus our results could facilitate an experimental study of exotic phases of matter with a non-abelian particle statistics. We also show that adaptiveness is essential for our circuit construction. Namely, task (b) cannot be realized by non-adaptive constant-depth local circuits for any non-abelian group $G$. This is in a sharp contrast with abelian anyons which can be created and moved over an arbitrary distance by a depth-$1$ circuit composed of generalized Pauli gates.

  1. Constant-Depth Clifford-Hierarchy Gates via Non-Abelian Surface Codes

    quant-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Non-Abelian surface codes based on dihedral groups D_{4N} implement transversal phase gates T^{1/N} at any Clifford-hierarchy level in 2D, with a qubit-only version when 8N is a power of two.

  2. A conditional no-go for resource-free magic-axis measurement on a static surface code

    eess.SY 2026-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Under three stated assumptions, a resource-free static surface-code patch cannot sharply measure the magic axis at polynomial acceptance; it must pay with a resource, leave the dilute regime, or accept exponentially rarely.

  3. Spacetime duality between sequential and measurement-feedback circuits

    quant-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    Sequential unitary and measurement-feedback circuits for preparing GHZ, topological, and fractal states are spacetime-dual, linking Kramers-Wannier duality to Z2 gauging and enabling constant-qubit order measurements.

  4. Non-Clifford gates between stabilizer codes via non-Abelian topological order

    quant-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A protocol uses the non-Abelian S3 quantum double as an intermediate to implement a controlled charge-conjugation (CC) gate between qubit and qutrit surface codes.
