Abstract

Superconducting flux qubits are considered to investigate macroscopic many-qubit interactions. Many-qubit states based on current states can be manipulated through the current-phase relation in each superconducting loop. For flux qubit systems comprised of N-qubit loops, a general expression of low-energy Hamiltonian is presented in terms of low-energy levels of qubits and macroscopic quantum tunnelings between the many-qubit states. Many-qubit interactions classified by Ising-type or tunnel exchange interactions can be observable experimentally. Flux qubit systems can provide various artificial-spin systems to study many-body systems that cannot be found naturally.
