Computing 256-bit Elliptic Curve Logarithm in 9 Hours with 126133 Cat Qubits

Résumé

Cat qubits provide appealing building blocks for quantum computing. They exhibit a tunable noise bias yielding an exponential suppression of bit-flips with the average photon number and a protection against the remaining phase errors can be ensured by a simple repetition code. We here quantify the cost of a repetition code and provide a valuable guidance for the choice of a large scale architecture using cat qubits by realizing a performance analysis based on the computation of discrete logarithms on an elliptic curve with Shor's algorithm. By focusing on a 2D grid of cat qubits with neighboring connectivity, we propose to implement two-qubit gates via lattice surgery and Toffoli gates with off-line fault-tolerant preparation of magic states through projective measurements and subsequent gate teleportations. All-to-all connectivity between logical qubits is ensured by routing qubits. Assuming a ratio between single-photon and two-photon losses of $10^{-5}$ and a cycle time of 500 nanoseconds, we show concretely that such an architecture can compute $256$-bit elliptic curve logarithm in $9$ hours with 126133 cat qubits. We give the details of the realization of Shor's algorithm so that the proposed performance analysis can be easily reused to guide the choice of architecture for others platforms.
