Quantum sensing of noises in one and two dimensional quantum walks.
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: Quantum walk (QW) provides a versatile platform for the realization of quantum algorithms. Due to the existence of the inevitable noises in the walk, the different quantum algorithms accommodating to different noises are demanded. Thus, the success of the algorithms based on the QW requires us to sense different noises in the walk. Until now, the way to distinguish different noises in the walk has been discussed rarely. Here, we propose an efficient way to sense the noises in the one and two dimensional QWs. The populations of the coin in the walk with or without decoherence are presented. By only detecting the populations of the coin in the QW, we can determine whether there exists the decoherence in the total QW system. Moreover, the non-Markovianity of the coin in the one and two dimensional QWs is revealed, in which the coin is taken as an open quantum system, and the other components of the QW system is taken as the large environment. With the measured value of the non-Markovianity for the coin, we can conjecture which kinds of noise emerges in the one and two dimensional QWs.
