  • Publication number: 20240086756
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus determines a combination of a first data qubit and a second data qubit that further reduces the energy represented by an energy equation. The energy equation includes first to third energy terms. The first energy term is used to identify the first data qubit on which a Z error has occurred. The second energy term is used to identify the second data qubit on which an X error has occurred. The third energy term reduces the energy as the number of data qubits each being a third data qubit on which both a Z error and an X error have simultaneously occurred increases. The information processing apparatus determines that a Y error has occurred on the third data qubit.

  • Publication number: 20240064890
    Abstract: In a multilayer substrate, first interlayer connection conductors pass through resin layers in a lamination direction and electrically connect first and second signal conductors. Second interlayer connection conductors pass through the resin layers in the lamination direction and electrically connect the first and second signal conductors. The first interlayer connection conductors are aligned in a first row extending along the first signal conductor when viewed in the lamination direction. The second interlayer connection conductors are aligned in a second row extending along the first signal conductor when viewed in the lamination direction. A direction perpendicular to the direction in which the first signal conductor extends, when viewed in the lamination direction, is a line width direction. A position of the second row in the line width direction is different from a position of the first row in the line width direction.
