Abstract

We analyze a scheme for quantum computation where quantum gates can be continuously changed from standard dynamic gates to purely geometric ones. These gates are enacted by controlling a set of parameters that are subject to unwanted stochastic fluctuations. This kind of noise results in a departure from the ideal case that can be quantified by a gate fidelity. We find that the maximum of this fidelity corresponds to quantum gates with a vanishing dynamical phase.
