Abstract
A qubit assembly includes a first superconducting loop comprising a first Josephson junction and a second Josephson junction, a second superconducting loop comprising the second Josephson junction and a third Josephson junction, and a third superconducting loop comprising the third Josephson junction and a fourth Josephson junction. A flux source is configured to provide a control flux to the second superconducting loop, such that the effective commutation relations between a first quantum operator corresponding to current in the first superconducting loop and a second quantum operator corresponding to current in the third superconducting loop can be changed by changing a magnitude of the control flux provided to the second superconducting loop by the flux source.
