Abstract

Over the past year, this study delved into the libraries of Cirq and in understanding many different concepts within Quantum Computing. We explored quantum circuits using the open-source frameworks of Cirq for projects. Different techniques and mechanisms were studied including depolarizing noise models, amplitude damping, and dephasing. Effects of noise were looked at on many different algorithms and implement with cirq. The development of noise within a quantum computer and the limitations of the current hardware was explored. This included understanding and implementing basic Quantum Error Correction, Quantum Key Distribution, and Cross Entropy Benchmarking. Additionally, understanding the measurement and effects of entanglement on noise and the hardware of a quantum computer was also explored. Within the topic of entanglement, projects included identifying estimating state space and identifying noise profiles on the BB84 algorithm using the FSIM gate. The goal of this independent study was to develop and understand basic skills used for real world quantum computing and the limitations of noiseand how that impacts long term algorithms, as well as NISQ devices.
