Primer on Pauli Twirling (tutorial)
- Primer on Pauli Twirling, Part IA primer on Pauli twirling: how random Pauli gates turn general noise, including coherent errors, into stochastic Pauli noise.
- Primer on Pauli Twirling, Part IIWhy Pauli twirling works: worked examples on bit-flip and coherent-rotation channels using Pauli transfer matrices.
- Primer on Pauli Twirling, Part IIIThe theory behind Pauli twirling: Pauli transfer matrices, superoperators, and why twirling masks a channel down to a Pauli channel.
- Primer on Pauli Twirling, Part IVLater sections of a Pauli twirling primer: unitary t-designs, Pauli and chi-matrix noise models, the Pauli transfer matrix (PTM), and twirling amplitude damping.
