Abstract

Multi-qubit quantum processors coupled to networking provides the state-of-the-art quantum computing platform. However, each qubit has unique eigenfrequency even though fabricated in the same process. To continue quantum gate operations besides the detection and correction of errors it is required that the qubits must be synchronized in the same frequency. This study uses Kuramoto model which is a link between statistical mean-field technique and non-linear dynamics to synchronize the qubits applying small noise in the system. This noise could be any externally applied noise function or just noise from the difference of frequencies of qubits. The Kuramoto model tunes the coupled oscillators adjusting the coupling strength between the oscillators to evolve from the state of incoherence to the synchronized state.
