This paper demonstrates that the quantum Zeno effect can be used to create an entangling gate between two non-interacting qubits. By applying rapid projective measurements, a single-qubit operation is transformed into a two-qubit entangling gate, even in the absence of direct qubit-qubit interaction. This is experimentally demonstrated using transmon qubits, where resonator-induced interactions are actively canceled. The gate works by imparting a geometric phase conditioned on the system's state within a specific non-local subspace.
