rb_decay_to_gate_error

forest.benchmarking.randomized_benchmarking.rb_decay_to_gate_error(rb_decay, dimension)

Eq. 5 of [RB] arxiv paper. Note that ‘gate’ here typically means an element of the Clifford group, which comprise standard rb sequences.

Parameters:

• rb_decay – Observed decay parameter in standard rb experiment.
• dimension – Dimension of the Hilbert space, 2**num_qubits

Returns:

The gate error corresponding to the input decay.
