For quantum computers to successfully solve real-world problems, it is necessary to tackle the challenge of noise: the errors which occur in elementary physical components due to unwanted or imperfect interactions. The theory of quantum fault tolerance can provide an answer in the long term, but in the coming era of `NISQ' machines we must seek to mitigate errors rather than completely remove them. This review surveys the diverse methods that have been proposed for quantum error mitigation, assesses their in-principle efficacy, and then describes the hardware demonstrations achieved to date. We identify the commonalities and limitations among the methods, noting how mitigation methods can be chosen according to the primary type of noise present, including algorithmic errors. Open problems in the field are identified and we discuss the prospects for realising mitigation-based devices that can deliver quantum advantage with an impact on science and business.

  1. Algebraic Speedups for Exact Inversion of Hamiltonian Evolutions

    quant-ph 2026-07 conditional novelty 8.0 of 10

    Known generator structure—additive eigenvalue relations and Wedderburn sector multiplicities—determines and often drastically lowers the exact query cost of reversing a Hamiltonian evolution.

  2. Incoherent behavior of partially distinguishable photons

    quant-ph 2025-02 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    A multi-photon state behaves like a stochastic mixture of distinguishability patterns exactly when its interference parameters depend only on permutation cycle structure, enabling a compact partition representation an...

  3. A comprehensive benchmark of an Ising machine on the Max-Cut problem

    quant-ph 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    The Digital Annealer finds better Max-Cut solutions than selected classical heuristics on a majority of medium-to-large instances, but its advantage depends on instance size and numeric precision.

  4. Provably Robust Training of Quantum Circuit Classifiers Against Parameter Noise

    quant-ph 2025-05 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    Randomized smoothing of quantum circuit parameters yields certified robustness against gate-angle noise, and evolutionary strategies can train the smoothed classifier to enlarge the certified region.
