The work reported in arXiv:1311.5619v1 proposes to produce continuous-variable cluster states through relativistic motion of cavities. This proposal does not produce the states claimed by the authors. The states actually produced are in general not known to be useful for measurement-based quantum computation.

In this Comment, we show that the thermal Gibbs state given in terms of a time-independent system Hamiltonian is not a steady state solution of the quantum master equation introduced by Nathan and Rudner [Phys. Rev. B 102, 115109 (2020)], in contrast to their claim.
One of the most challenging problems for the realization of a scalable quantum computer is to design a physical device that keeps the error rate for each quantum processing operation low. These errors can originate from the accuracy of quantum manipulation, such as the sweeping of a gate voltage in solid state qubits or the duration of a laser pulse in optical schemes. Errors also result from decoherence, which is often regarded as more crucial in the sense that it is inherent to the quantum system, being fundamentally a consequence of the coupling to the external environment. Grouping small collections of qubits into clusters with symmetries may serve to protect parts of the calculation from decoherence. In this work, we use 4-level cores with a straightforward generalization of discrete rotational symmetry, called $omega$-rotation invariance, to encode pairs of coupled qubits and universal 2-qubit logical gates. We propose a scalable scheme for universal quantum computation where cores play the role of quantum-computational transistors, or textit{quansistors} for short. Embedding in the environment, initialization and readout are achieved by tunnel-coupling the quansistor to leads. The external leads are explicitly considered and are assumed to be the main source of decoherence. We show that quansistors can be dynamically decoupled from the leads by tuning their internal parameters, giving them the versatility required to act as controllable quantum memory units. With this dynamical decoupling, logical operations within quansistors are also symmetry-protected from unbiased noise in their parameters. We identify technologies that could implement $omega$-rotation invariance. Many of our results can be generalized to higher-level $omega$-rotation-invariant systems, or adapted to clusters with other symmetries.
Utilizing the tools of quantum optics to prepare and manipulate quantum states of motion of a mechanical resonator is currently one of the most promising routes to explore non-classicality at a macroscopic scale. An important quantum optomechanical tool yet to be experimentally demonstrated is the ability to perform complete quantum state reconstruction. Here, after providing a brief introduction to quantum states in phase space, we review and contrast the current proposals for state reconstruction of mechanical motional states and discuss experimental progress. Furthermore, we show that mechanical quadrature tomography using back-action-evading interactions gives an $s$-parameterized Wigner function where the numerical parameter $s$ is directly related to the optomechanical measurement strength. We also discuss the effects of classical noise in the optical probe for both state reconstruction and state preparation by measurement.
The surface code is currently the primary proposed method for performing quantum error correction. However, despite its many advantages, it has no native method to fault-tolerantly apply non-Clifford gates. Additional techniques are therefore required to achieve universal quantum computation. Here we propose a hybrid scheme which uses small islands of a qudit variant of the surface code to enhance the computational power of the standard surface code. This allows the non-trivial action of the non-Abelian anyons in the former to process information stored in the latter. Specifically, we show that a non-stabilizer state can be prepared, which allows universality to be achieved.
We show how the dynamical modulation of the qubit-field coupling strength in a circuit quantum electrodynamics architecture mimics the motion of the qubit at relativistic speeds. This allows us to propose a realistic experiment to detect microwave photons coming from simulated acceleration radiation. Moreover, by combining this technique with the dynamical Casimir physics, we enhance the toolbox for studying relativistic phenomena in quantum field theory with superconducting circuits.
