Abstract
We present numerical results from simulations using deep reinforcement learning to control a measurement-based quantum processor—a time-multiplexed optical circuit sampled by photon- number-resolving detection—and find it generates squeezed cat states quasi-deterministically, with an average success rate of 98%, far outperforming all other proposals. Since squeezed cat states are deterministic precursors to the Gottesman-Kitaev-Preskill (GKP) bosonic error code, this is a key result for enabling fault tolerant photonic quantum computing. Informed by these simulations, we also discovered a one-step quantum circuit of constant parameters that can generate GKP states with high probability, though not deterministically.
