Towards low overhead magic state distillation
2018
Magic state distillation is a resource intensive sub-routine for quantum computation. The ratio of noisy input states to output states with error rate at most $\epsilon$ scales as $O(\log^{\gamma}(1/\epsilon))$ (Bravyi and Haah, PRA 2012). In a breakthrough paper, Hastings and Haah (PRL 2018) showed that it is possible to construct distillation routines with sub-logarithmic overhead, achieving $\gamma \approx 0.6779$ and falsifying a conjecture that $\gamma$ is lower bounded by $1$. They then ask whether $\gamma$ can be made arbitrarily close to $0$. We answer this question in the affirmative for magic state distillation routines using qudits ($d$ dimensional quantum systems).
