To this purpose we consider a chain of N ultrastrongly coupled qubit-resonator systems interacting through a grounded SQUID. The anharmonic spectrum of the qubit-resonator system and the selection rules imposed by the global parity symmetry allow us to activate well controlled two-body quantum gates via AC-pulses applied to the SQUID. We show that our proposal has the same simulation time for any number of spin-1 interacting particles. This scheme may be implemented within the state-of-the-art circuit QED in the ultrastrong coupling regime.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2017-09-28T11:52:54.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "ultrastrong coupling regime", "circuit qed", "coupled qubit-resonator systems interacting", "controlled two-body quantum gates", "global parity symmetry" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 6, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
