Abstract

We study the implementation of holonomic quantum gates preserved from arbitrary single-qubit and two-qubit decoherence or errors using a dynamical decoupling approach. To integrate the holonomic feature with the dynamical decoupling technique, we require only one auxiliary qubit for single-qubit gates and no auxiliary qubit for two-qubit gates. Our scheme uses far fewer physical qubits to achieve this integration compared to existing proposals in the literature. Moreover, the scheme is based on system interactions that can be experimentally realized with superconducting qubits. These advantages suggest that our scheme is a promising step toward developing noise-resistant quantum devices.
