Quantum measurements not only extract information from a system but also alter its state. Although the outcome of the measurement is probabilistic, the backaction imparted on the measured system is accurately described by quantum theory. Therefore, quantum measurements can be exploited for manipulating quantum systems without the need for control fields. We demonstrate measurement-only state manipulation on a nuclear spin qubit in diamond by adaptive partial measurements. We implement the partial measurement via tunable correlation with an electron ancilla qubit and subsequent ancilla readout. We vary the measurement strength to observe controlled wavefunction collapse and find post-selected quantum weak values. By combining a novel quantum non-demolition readout on the ancilla with real-time adaption of the measurement strength we realize steering of the nuclear spin to a target state by measurements alone. Besides being of fundamental interest, adaptive measurements can improve metrology applications and are key to measurement-based quantum computing.

We study the backaction of a driven nonlinear resonator on a multi-level superconducting qubit. Using unitary transformations on the multi-level Jaynes-Cummings Hamiltonian and quantum optics master equation, we derive an analytical model that goes b
eyond linear response theory. Within the limits of validity of the model, we obtain quantitative agreement with experimental and numerical data, both in the bifurcation and in the parametric amplification regimes of the nonlinear resonator. We show in particular that the measurement-induced dephasing rate of the qubit can be rather small at high drive power. This is in contrast to measurement with a linear resonator where this rate increases with the drive power. Finally, we show that, for typical parameters of circuit quantum electrodynamics, correctly describing measurement-induced dephasing requires a model going beyond linear response theory, such as the one presented here.
Entanglement generation and preservation is a key task in quantum information processing, and a variety of protocols exist to entangle remote qubits via measurement of their spontaneous emission. We here propose feedback methods, based on monitoring
the fluorescence of two qubits and using only local pi-pulses for control, to increase the yield and/or lifetime of entangled two-qubit states. Specifically, we describe a protocol based on photodetection of spontaneous emission (i.e. using quantum jump trajectories) which allows for entanglement preservation via measurement undoing, creating a limit cycle around a Bell states. We then demonstrate that a similar modification can be made to a recent feedback scheme based on homodyne measurement (i.e. using diffusive quantum trajectories), [L. S. Martin and K. B. Whaley, arXiv:1912.00067] in order to increase the lifetime of the entanglement it creates. Our schemes are most effective for high measurement efficiencies, and the impact of less-than-ideal measurement efficiency is quantified. The method we describe here combines proven techniques in a novel way, complementing existing protocols, and offering a pathway towards generating and protecting entangled states so that they may be used in various applications on demand.
Non-locality sharing for a three-qubit system via multilateral sequential measurements was deeply discussed. Different from 2-qubit case, it is shown that non-locality sharing between $mathrm{Alice_{1}-Bob_{1}-Charlie_{1}}$ and $mathrm{Alice_{2}-Bob_
{2}-Charlie_{2}}$ in 3-qubit system can be observed, where two Mermin-Ardehali-Belinskii-Klyshko (MABK) inequalities can be violated simultaneously. Whats more, a complete non-locality sharing with 8 MABK inequalities violations simultaneously can be also observed. Compared with 2-qubit case, the nonlocal sharing in a three qubit system shows more novel characteristics.
Although qubit coherence times and gate fidelities are continuously improving, logical encoding is essential to achieve fault tolerance in quantum computing. In most encoding schemes, correcting or tracking errors throughout the computation is necess
ary to implement a universal gate set without adding significant delays in the processor. Here we realize a classical control architecture for the fast extraction of errors based on multiple cycles of stabilizer measurements and subsequent correction. We demonstrate its application on a minimal bit-flip code with five transmon qubits, showing that real-time decoding and correction based on multiple stabilizers is superior in both speed and fidelity to repeated correction based on individual cycles. Furthermore, the encoded qubit can be rapidly measured, thus enabling conditional operations that rely on feed-forward, such as logical gates. This co-processing of classical and quantum information will be crucial in running a logical circuit at its full speed to outpace error accumulation.
Gauge theories are fundamental to our understanding of interactions between the elementary constituents of matter as mediated by gauge bosons. However, computing the real-time dynamics in gauge theories is a notorious challenge for classical computat
ional methods. In the spirit of Feynmans vision of a quantum simulator, this has recently stimulated theoretical effort to devise schemes for simulating such theories on engineered quantum-mechanical devices, with the difficulty that gauge invariance and the associated local conservation laws (Gauss laws) need to be implemented. Here we report the first experimental demonstration of a digital quantum simulation of a lattice gauge theory, by realising 1+1-dimensional quantum electrodynamics (Schwinger model) on a few-qubit trapped-ion quantum computer. We are interested in the real-time evolution of the Schwinger mechanism, describing the instability of the bare vacuum due to quantum fluctuations, which manifests itself in the spontaneous creation of electron-positron pairs. To make efficient use of our quantum resources, we map the original problem to a spin model by eliminating the gauge fields in favour of exotic long-range interactions, which have a direct and efficient implementation on an ion trap architecture. We explore the Schwinger mechanism of particle-antiparticle generation by monitoring the mass production and the vacuum persistence amplitude. Moreover, we track the real-time evolution of entanglement in the system, which illustrates how particle creation and entanglement generation are directly related. Our work represents a first step towards quantum simulating high-energy theories with atomic physics experiments, the long-term vision being the extension to real-time quantum simulations of non-Abelian lattice gauge theories.
