Primitive Quantum Gates for an SU(3) Discrete Subgroup: Σ(216×3)
Abstract
We construct a primitive gate set for the digital quantum simulation of the $648$-element discrete subgroup of SU(3), dsb. The five algorithmic primitives are the inversion, group multiplication, trace, group Fourier transform, and kinetic-phase gates, for which we provide qubit and qutrit--qubit decompositions. For a fiducial shear-viscosity calculation on a 103 spatial lattice with $50$ time steps and a total synthesis-error budget of 10−8, the estimated fault-tolerant costs are $2.3−−6.8\times10^{10}$ T gates in the qubit architecture and $1.3−−5.9\times10^{12}$ R gates in the qutrit--qubit architecture.
