Abstract
We develop a non-adiabatic generalization of holonomic quantum computation in which high-speed universal quantum gates can be realized by using non-Abelian geometric phases. We show how a set of non-adiabatic holonomic one- and two-qubit gates can be implemented by utilizing optical transitions in a generic three-level configuration. Our scheme opens up for universal holonomic quantum computation on qubits characterized by short coherence times.
