Abstract
Magic-state distillation is a resource intensive subroutine for quantum computation. The ratio of noisy input states to output states with an error rate at most ε scales as O(log^{γ}(1/ε)) [S. Bravyi and J. Haah, Magic-state distillation with low overhead, Phys. Rev. A 86, 052329 (2012)10.1103/PhysRevA.86.052329]. In a breakthrough paper, Hastings and Haah [Distillation with Sublogarithmic Overhead, Phys. Rev. Lett. 120, 050504 (2018)10.1103/PhysRevLett.120.050504] showed that it is possible to construct distillation routines with a sublogarithmic overhead, achieving γ≈0.6779 and falsifying a conjecture that γ is lower bounded by 1. They then ask whether γ can be made arbitrarily close to 0. We answer this question in the affirmative for magic-state distillation routines using qudits of prime dimension (d dimensional quantum systems for prime d).
