Two-qubit encoding strategy for a continuous quantum system — •Sebastian Luhn and Matthias Zimmermann — DLR e.V., Institut für Quantentechnologien, Ulm

Bosonic codes employ particular states of an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space to encode a qubit within a continuous quantum system. Despite the enormous resources available in a continuous quantum system [1], typical encodings only exist for single qubits [2]. Here we go one step further and present an encoding for two qubits (four states), which protects against errors in the shift of the canonical variables q and p. Furthermore, we present possible implementations of common single and two-qubit operations, based on particular symmetry operations for continuous quantum states represented by a square lattice in phase space.
