Local Random Quantum Circuits are Approximate Polynomial-Designs

We prove that local random quantum circuits acting on n qubits composed of O(t[superscript 10]n[superscript 2]) many nearest neighbor two-qubit gates form an approximate unitary t-design. Previously it was unknown whether random quantum circuits were a t-design for any t > 3. The proof is based o...
