Continuous-variable quantum-computing (CVQC) is the most scalable implementation of QC to date but requires non-Gaussian resources to allow exponential speedup and quantum correction, using error encoding such as Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) states. However, GKP state generation is still an experimental challenge. We show theoretically that photon catalysis, the interference of coherent states with single-photon states followed by photon-number-resolved detection, is a powerful enabler for non-Gaussian quantum state engineering such as exactly displaced single-photon states and $M$-symmetric superpositions of squeezed vacuum (SSV), including squeezed cat states ($M=2$). By including photon-counting based state breeding, we demonstrate the potential to enlarge SSV states and produce GKP states.

The Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) quantum error correcting code attracts much attention in continuous variable (CV) quantum computation and CV quantum communication due to the simplicity of error correcting routines and the high tolerance against G
aussian errors. Since the GKP code state should be regarded as a limit of physically meaningful approximate ones, various approximations have been developed until today, but explicit relations among them are still unclear. In this paper, we rigorously prove the equivalence of these approximate GKP codes with an explicit correspondence of the parameters. We also propose a standard form of the approximate code states in the position representation, which enables us to derive closed-from expressions for the Wigner functions, the inner products, and the average photon numbers in terms of the theta functions. Our results serve as fundamental tools for further analyses of fault-tolerant quantum computation and channel coding using approximate GKP codes.
The Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) encoding of a qubit into a bosonic mode is a promising bosonic code for quantum computation due to its tolerance for noise and all-Gaussian gate set. We present a toolkit for phase-space description and manipulatio
n of GKP encodings that includes Wigner functions for ideal and approximate GKP states, for various types of mixed GKP states, and for GKP-encoded operators. One advantage of a phase-space approach is that Gaussian unitaries, required for computation with GKP codes, correspond to simple transformations on the arguments of Wigner functions. We use this fact and our toolkit to describe GKP error correction, including magic-state preparation, entirely in phase space using operations on Wigner functions. While our focus here is on the square-lattice GKP code, we provide a general framework for GKP codes defined on any lattice.
Quantum repeaters are a promising platform for realizing long-distance quantum communication and thus could form the backbone of a secure quantum internet, a scalable quantum network, or a distributed quantum computer. Repeater protocols that encode
information in single- or multi-photon states are limited by transmission losses and the cost of implementing entangling gates or Bell measurements. In this work, we consider implementing a quantum repeater protocol using Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) qubits. These qubits are natural elements for quantum repeater protocols, because they allow for deterministic Gaussian entangling operations and Bell measurements, which can be implemented at room temperature. The GKP encoding is also capable of correcting small displacement errors. At the cost of additional Gaussian noise, photon loss can be converted into a random displacement error channel by applying a phase-insensitive amplifier. Here we show that a similar conversion can be achieved in two-way repeater protocols by using phase-sensitive amplification applied in the post-processing of the measurement data, resulting in less overall Gaussian noise per (sufficiently short) repeater segment. We also investigate concatenating the GKP code with higher level qubit codes while leveraging analog syndrome data, post-selection, and path-selection techniques to boost the rate of communication. We compute the secure key rates and find that GKP repeaters can achieve a comparative performance relative to methods based on photonic qubits while using orders-of-magnitude fewer qubits.
The Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) quantum error-correcting code has emerged as a key technique in achieving fault-tolerant quantum computation using photonic systems. Whereas [Baragiola et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 123, 200502 (2019)] showed that exper
imentally tractable Gaussian operations combined with preparing a GKP codeword $lvert 0rangle$ suffice to implement universal quantum computation, this implementation scheme involves a distillation of a logical magic state $lvert Hrangle$ of the GKP code, which inevitably imposes a trade-off between implementation cost and fidelity. In contrast, we propose a scheme of preparing $lvert Hrangle$ directly and combining Gaussian operations only with $lvert Hrangle$ to achieve the universality without this magic state distillation. In addition, we develop an analytical method to obtain bounds of fundamental limit on transformation between $lvert Hrangle$ and $lvert 0rangle$, finding an application of quantum resource theories to cost analysis of quantum computation with the GKP code. Our results lead to an essential reduction of required non-Gaussian resources for photonic fault-tolerant quantum computation compared to the previous scheme.
Scalability of flying photonic quantum systems in generating quantum entanglement offers a potential for implementing large-scale fault-tolerant quantum computation, especially by means of measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC). However, existi
ng protocols for MBQC inevitably impose a polynomial overhead cost in implementing quantum computation due to geometrical constraints of entanglement structures used in the protocols, and the polynomial overhead potentially cancels out useful polynomial speedups in quantum computation. To implement quantum computation without this cancellation, we construct a protocol for photonic MBQC that achieves as low as poly-logarithmic overhead, by introducing an entanglement structure for low-overhead qubit permutation. Based on this protocol, we design a fault-tolerant photonic MBQC protocol that can be performed by experimentally tractable homodyne detection and Gaussian entangling operations combined with the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) quantum error-correcting code, which we concatenate with the $7$-qubit code. Our fault-tolerant protocol achieves the threshold $7.8$ dB in terms of the squeezing level of the GKP code, outperforming $8.3$ dB of the best existing protocol for fault-tolerant quantum computation with the GKP surface code. Thus, bridging a gap between theoretical progress on MBQC and photonic experiments towards implementing MBQC, our results open a new way towards realization of a large class of quantum speedups including those polynomial.
