Abstract

Recently, it was shown that the non-local correlations needed for measurement-based quantum computation (MBQC) can be revealed in the ground state of the Affleck-Kennedy-Lieb-Tasaki (AKLT) model involving nearest-neighbour spin-3/2 interactions on a honeycomb lattice. This state is not singular but resides in the disordered phase of the ground states of a large family of Hamiltonians characterized by short-range-correlated valence bond solid states. By applying local filtering and adaptive single-particle measurements, we show that most states in the disordered phase can be reduced to a graph of correlated qubits that is a scalable resource for MBQC. At the transition between the disordered and Néel ordered phases, we find a transition from universal to non-universal states as witnessed by the scaling of percolation in the reduced graph state.
