Methods for scalable optical quantum computation.

We propose a scalable method for implementing linear optics quantum computation using the "linked-state" approach. Our method avoids the two-dimensional spread of errors occurring in the preparation of the linked state. Consequently, a proof is given for the scalability of this modified linked-state model, and an exact expression for the efficiency of the method is obtained. Moreover, a considerable improvement in the efficiency, relative to the original linked-state method, is achieved. The proposed method is applicable to Nielsen's optical "cluster-state" approach as well.

Classical simulation of limited-width cluster-state quantum computation.

We present a classical protocol, using the matrix product-state representation, to simulate cluster-state quantum computation at a cost polynomial in the number of qubits in the cluster and exponential in d---the width of the cluster. We use this result to show that any log-depth quantum computation in the gate array model, with gates linking only nearby qubits, can be simulated efficiently on a classical computer.
