| Abstract: | Quantum discord has been proposed as a resource responsible for the exponential speedup in deterministic quantum computation with one pure qubit (DQC1). Investigation of the quantum discord generated in DQC1 is of significant importance from a fundamental perspective. However, in practical applications of DQC1, qubits generally interact with the environment. Thus, it is also important to investigate the discord when DQC1 is implemented in a noisy environment. We implement DQC1 on an electron spin resonance (ESR) architecture in such an environment and nonzero quantum discord is observed. Furthermore, we find that the values of discord correspond to the values of purity α and quantum Fisher information, which reflect the power of the algorithm. Our results provide further evidence for the role of discord as a resource in DQC1 and are beneficial for understanding the origin of the power of quantum algorithms. |
