Summary: This study presents detailed measurement sequences for magic state distillation protocols, which can suppress arbitrary errors on any part of a protocol assuming errors across qubits are independent. The protocol operates on a two-dimensional square grid by measuring ZZ on horizontal qubit pairs, XX on vertical pairs, and Z, X on single qubits when provided with input magic states.

Summary: Magic state distillation is a resource-intensive subroutine, and our proposed initialization protocol can reduce resource costs by reducing the error rate of input magic states. By utilizing native gate operations of an underlying qubit architecture, our approach offers substantial advantages in the presence of biased noise.

Summary: This paper introduces a decoder capable of correcting spacelike and timelike errors during lattice-surgery protocols, and computes the logical failure rates of a biased circuit-level noise model for lattice-surgery protocol. It also provides protocols for twist-free lattice surgery and temporally encoded lattice surgery, as well as proposes a layout for a quantum processor that is more efficient for rectangular surface codes.

Summary: A clean coupling process was proposed to recover ethyl acetate and water using a reactive distillation column, avoiding over-recycling of raw materials. An extractive distillation scheme using DMSO was introduced to reduce energy requirements for the purification of a mixture of ethanol, water, and ethyl acetate. By optimizing operating conditions and heat integration, the energy intensity was further reduced.

Summary: The proposed methodology uses deep generative models and neural networks to represent the channel in a low-dimensional space, achieving near-optimal hybrid beamforming with reduced feedback and computational complexity. It approaches capacity-achieving spectral efficiency, provides a superior energy and spectral efficiency tradeoff, decreases feedback overhead, and reduces complexity significantly. The spectral efficiency remains robust when tested with realistic 3GPP channel models, even with offline training on a simple geometric channel model.

Summary: Graphene bilayers exhibit zero-energy flatbands at specific magic twist angles, satisfying a Dirac equation with a non-Abelian SU(2) gauge potential. A semiclassical WKB approximation scheme is developed to analyze these zero-energy solutions, finding values of a dimensionless Planck's constant that correspond closely to numerically determined twist angles.

Summary: This paper investigates the use of twists in color codes for encoded computations, focusing on the construction of charge permuting and color permuting twists. It demonstrates that Clifford gates can be realized in color codes with charge permuting twists through braiding, and discusses the implementation of single-qubit Clifford gates and CNOT gates using Pauli frame updates and braiding around color permuting twists. Additionally, it explores the implementation of a non-Clifford gate by state injection, completing the realization of a universal gate set.

Summary: A new structure for D flip-flop is proposed in this paper, which sacrifices circuit speed to enhance its resistance to single event upsets. Compared to traditional D flip-flops, this structure has improved resistance, as well as advantages in terms of area and power consumption. It is suitable for soft radiation environments where high circuit speed is not a critical requirement.

Summary: This paper presents a low-overhead fault-tolerant quantum computing scheme based on quantum low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes, which enables many logical qubits to be encoded using a modest number of physical qubits through long-range interactions. In this approach, logic gates operate through logical Pauli measurements, preserving both the protection of LDPC codes and low overheads in terms of required additional qubits. Compared to surface codes with the same code distance, there are estimated order-of-magnitude improvements in overheads for processing about 100 logical qubits using this approach. Given the high thresholds demonstrated by LDPC codes, it is suggested that fault-tolerant quantum computation at this scale may be achievable with a few thousand physical qubits at comparable error rates to current approaches.

Summary: Low-light image enhancement is important for improving image quality under poor lighting conditions. Currently, CNN-based methods are the mainstream of research and achieve state-of-the-art performance. However, these methods often require large computing resources due to increased network width and depth. In this paper, a knowledge distillation method is proposed to enhance low-light images. The method uses a teacher-student framework to transfer rich knowledge from the teacher network to the student network. The student network learns image enhancement knowledge under the supervision of ground truth images and the guidance of the teacher network simultaneously. Knowledge transfer is accomplished through distillation loss based on attention maps. Experimental results demonstrate the superiority of the proposed method compared to existing methods.
