Abstract

We put forward a strategy to encode a quantum operation into the unmodulated dynamics of a quantum network without the need for external control pulses, measurements or active feedback. Our optimisation scheme, inspired by supervised machine learning, consists in engineering the pairwise couplings between the network qubits so that the target quantum operation is encoded in the natural reduced dynamics of a network section. The efficacy of the proposed scheme is demonstrated by the finding of uncontrolled four-qubit networks that implement either the Toffoli gate, the Fredkin gate or remote logic operations. The proposed Toffoli gate is stable against imperfections, has a high fidelity for fault-tolerant quantum computation and is fast, being based on the non-equilibrium dynamics.
