Hon Hai Research Institute Demonstrates Superiority of Shallow Quantum Circuits Beyond Prior Understanding
Breakthrough study published in Nature Communications29 April 2025, Taipei, Taiwan  – Hon Hai Research Institute (HHRI), in a milestone collaborative effort, has demonstrated that parallel quantum computation can exhibit greater computational power than previously recognized, with its research results accepted for publication in the prestigious journal Nature Communications.Titled "Unconditional advantage of noisy qudit quantum circuits over biased threshold circuits in constant depth," the latest HHRI paper achieves another milestone in quantum computing research. Figure 1: Classes of circuits and the corresponding problems that could be efficiently solved by them. This breakthrough study establishes a fundamental advancement in our understanding of quantum circuit capabilities. The research demonstrates that a class of problems, known as ISMRP, can be efficiently computed by shallow quantum circuits—but not by any polynomial-sized classical biased threshold circuits (bPTC0(k)). This proves a previously unverified advantage of shallow quantum circuits. While many current claims of “quantum advantage” are based on certain unproven assumptions and remain experimentally challenging to verify, this study presents an unconditional proof of quantum circuit supremacy without any computational hardness assumptions. Notably, the team proved that even when quantum circuits are subject to noise, shallow qudit quantum circuits built from local logic gates can solve problems that classical polynomial-sized biased threshold circuits fundamentally cannot. The finding highlights the long-term potential and practical application of quantum computing. This breakthrough solidifies Taiwan’s growing influence in the field of quantum computing and showcases the deep commitment and accumulated expertise in this critical area of research by Hon Hai Research Institute, a key R&D source for Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn), the world’s largest electronics manufacturing service provider. HHRI will continue to push forward in quantum technology to contribute to global innovation and industrial advancement. The research was a collaborative effort led by Dr. Ming-Hsiu Hsieh, Director of HHRI’s Quantum Computing Research Center, along with institute Researcher Leandro Mendes and PhD intern Michael de Oliveira. Collaborating with HHRI was Sathyawageeswar Subramanian, a senior research fellow from the Department of Computer Science and Technology at the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. The article is published in Nature Communications (Volume 16, Article number: 3559, 2025), which ranks 5th globally in Google Scholar’s h5-index metrics with a score of 375 – underscoring the high academic impact of this achievement. Access the full publication here: https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-025-58545-4   About Hon Hai Research Institute The institute, founded in 2020 and part of Hon Hai Technology Group (Foxconn), has five research centers.

To enhance sustainability in Foxconn’s operations and serve as a global best-practice model, the audits in 2024 also focused on campuses needing to strengthen third-party checks based on comprehensive assessment of their operational complexity, employee size, and past record in third-party audits. Audit areas covered labor rights, occupational health and safety, environment, ethics, supply chain management and interviews with 1,067 employees. Total scope included 210,000 employees and took the equivalent of 96 man-days. No priority findings were assessed, with the exception of one priority non-compliance in supply chain management due to overtime hours of an outsourced service provider, which has been addressed. The compliance rates for environment and ethics each reached over 97%, while those for labor, health and safety, and supply chain management each reached over 80%. Findings indicated a need to strengthen the management of the ratio of dispatched workers, overtime hours, calculation for social insurance and on-time severance payment, as well as attention to the on-site working environment in India. By end 2024, RBA VAP audits have been done at 58 sites with 8 recognized at Platinum level, 17 at Gold, and 20 at Silver. The first audits in 2023 covered eight sites in China and India.
