Robust continuous-variable (CV) quantum information processing requires correcting realistic errors in bosonic systems, but all existing schemes rely on auxiliary Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) states which the preparation and operation are demanding in many platforms. In this work, we propose a novel CV quantum error correction (QEC) scheme that utilizes a broadly accessible resource: discrete-variable (DV) ancilla. Our scheme extracts information about CV displacement to the DV ancilla, measuring that allows counteracting the unwanted displacement error. We show that a simple single-qubit ancilla can already suppress CV infidelity by more than 20%. By concatenating with DV QEC codes, our scheme is robust against the physical errors in hybrid CV-DV systems, and yields a new class of oscillator-in-oscillator code that does not involve GKP states. Our work facilitates the implementation of CV QEC on realistic platforms.

This volume contains the proceedings of the ninth workshop on Quantum Physics and Logic (QPL2012) which took place in Brussels from the 10th to the 12th of October 2012. QPL2012 brought together researchers working on mathematical foundations of quantum physics, quantum computing, and spatio-temporal causal structures. The particular focus was on the use of logical tools, ordered algebraic and category-theoretic structures, formal languages, semantical techniques, and other computer science methods for the study of physical behaviour in general.
