Abstract
- Ising-type non-Abelian anyons are likely to occur in a number of physical systems, including quantum Hall systems, where recent experiments support their existence. In general, non-Abelian anyons may be utilized to provide a topologically error-protected medium for quantum information processing. However, the topologically protected operations that may be obtained by braiding and measuring topological charge of Ising anyons are precisely the Clifford gates, which are not computationally universal. The Clifford gate set can be made universal by supplementing it with single-qubit pi/8-phase gates. We propose a method of implementing arbitrary single qubit phase gates for Ising anyons by running a current of anyons with interfering paths around computational anyons. While the resulting phase gates are not topologically protected, they can be combined with "magic state distillation" to provide error-corrected pi/8-phase gates with a remarkably high threshold.<br />Comment: 5 pages, 2 figures; v2: revised discussion and error analysis; v3: added discussion and application for multi-qubit gates
