In analog with the three-dimensional case, the resulting interaction is referred to as the Fermi pseudo-potential. The dominant feature of this one-dimensional problem comes from the fact that the real line becomes disconnected when one point is removed. The general interaction at one point is found to be the sum of three terms, the well-known delta-function potential arXiv:math-ph/0208030v1 21 Aug 2002 and two Fermi pseudo-potentials, one odd under space reflection and the other even. -

Quantum Machine Learning for Data Scientists
Quantum machine learning for data scientists Dawid Kopczyk Quantee Limited, Manchester, United Kingdom This text aims to present and explain quantum machine learning algorithms to a data scientist in an accessible and consistent way. The algorithms and equations presented are not written in rig- orous mathematical fashion, instead, the pressure is put on examples and step by step explanation of difficult topics. This contribution gives an overview of selected quantum machine learning algo- rithms, however there is also a method of scores extraction for quantum PCA algorithm proposed as well as a new cost function in feed-forward quantum neural networks is introduced. The text is divided into four parts: the first part explains the basic quantum theory, then quantum compu- tation and quantum computer architecture are explained in section two. The third part presents quantum algorithms which will be used as subroutines in quantum machine learning algorithms. Fi- nally, the fourth section describes quantum machine learning algorithms with the use of knowledge accumulated in previous parts. Contents I. Introduction 2 II. Basic quantum theory 3 A.

Key Concepts for Future QIS Learners Workshop Output Published Online May 13, 2020
Key Concepts for Future QIS Learners Workshop output published online May 13, 2020 Background and Overview On behalf of the Interagency Working Group on Workforce, Industry and Infrastructure, under the NSTC Subcommittee on Quantum Information Science (QIS), the National Science Foundation invited 25 researchers and educators to come together to deliberate on defining a core set of key concepts for future QIS learners that could provide a starting point for further curricular and educator development activities. The deliberative group included university and industry researchers, secondary school and college educators, and representatives from educational and professional organizations. The workshop participants focused on identifying concepts that could, with additional supporting resources, help prepare secondary school students to engage with QIS and provide possible pathways for broader public engagement. This workshop report identifies a set of nine Key Concepts. Each Concept is introduced with a concise overall statement, followed by a few important fundamentals. Connections to current and future technologies are included, providing relevance and context. The first Key Concept defines the field as a whole. Concepts 2-6 introduce ideas that are necessary for building an understanding of quantum information science and its applications. Concepts 7-9 provide short explanations of critical areas of study within QIS: quantum computing, quantum communication and quantum sensing. The Key Concepts are not intended to be an introductory guide to quantum information science, but rather provide a framework for future expansion and adaptation for students at different levels in computer science, mathematics, physics, and chemistry courses. As such, it is expected that educators and other community stakeholders may not yet have a working knowledge of content covered in the Key Concepts. -
Simulating Quantum Field Theory with a Quantum Computer
Simulating quantum field theory with a quantum computer John Preskill Lattice 2018 28 July 2018 This talk has two parts (1) Near-term prospects for quantum computing. (2) Opportunities in quantum simulation of quantum field theory. Exascale digital computers will advance our knowledge of QCD, but some challenges will remain, especially concerning real-time evolution and properties of nuclear matter and quark-gluon plasma at nonzero temperature and chemical potential. Digital computers may never be able to address these (and other) problems; quantum computers will solve them eventually, though I’m not sure when. The physics payoff may still be far away, but today’s research can hasten the arrival of a new era in which quantum simulation fuels progress in fundamental physics.

Pilot Quantum Error Correction for Global
Pilot Quantum Error Correction for Global- Scale Quantum Communications Laszlo Gyongyosi*1,2, Member, IEEE, Sandor Imre1, Member, IEEE 1Quantum Technologies Laboratory, Department of Telecommunications Budapest University of Technology and Economics 2 Magyar tudosok krt, H-1111, Budapest, Hungary 2Information Systems Research Group, Mathematics and Natural Sciences Hungarian Academy of Sciences H-1518, Budapest, Hungary *[email protected] Real global-scale quantum communications and quantum key distribution systems cannot be implemented by the current fiber and free-space links. These links have high attenuation, low polarization-preserving capability or extreme sensitivity to the environment. A potential solution to the problem is the space-earth quantum channels. These channels have no absorption since the signal states are propagated in empty space, however a small fraction of these channels is in the atmosphere, which causes slight depolarizing effect. Furthermore, the relative motion of the ground station and the satellite causes a rotation in the polarization of the quantum states. In the current approaches to compensate for these types of polarization errors, high computational costs and extra physical apparatuses are required. Here we introduce a novel approach which breaks with the traditional views of currently developed quantum-error correction schemes. The proposed solution can be applied to fix the polarization errors which are critical in space-earth quantum communication systems. The channel coding scheme provides capacity-achieving communication over slightly depolarizing space-earth channels. I. Introduction Quantum error-correction schemes use different techniques to correct the various possible errors which occur in a quantum channel. In the first decade of the 21st century, many revolutionary properties of quantum channels were discovered [12-16], [19-22] however the efficient error- correction in quantum systems is still a challenge. -
Free-Electron Qubits
Free-Electron Qubits Ori Reinhardt†, Chen Mechel†, Morgan Lynch, and Ido Kaminer Department of Electrical Engineering and Solid State Institute, Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, 32000 Haifa, Israel † equal contributors Free-electron interactions with laser-driven nanophotonic nearfields can quantize the electrons’ energy spectrum and provide control over this quantized degree of freedom. We propose to use such interactions to promote free electrons as carriers of quantum information and find how to create a qubit on a free electron. We find how to implement the qubit’s non-commutative spin-algebra, then control and measure the qubit state with a universal set of 1-qubit gates. These gates are within the current capabilities of femtosecond-pulsed laser-driven transmission electron microscopy. Pulsed laser driving promise configurability by the laser intensity, polarizability, pulse duration, and arrival times. Most platforms for quantum computation today rely on light-matter interactions of bound electrons such as in ion traps [1], superconducting circuits [2], and electron spin systems [3,4]. These form a natural choice for implementing 2-level systems with spin algebra. Instead of using bound electrons for quantum information processing, in this letter we propose using free electrons and manipulating them with femtosecond laser pulses in optical frequencies. Compared to bound electrons, free electron systems enable accessing high energy scales and short time scales. Moreover, they possess quantized degrees of freedom that can take unbounded values, such as orbital angular momentum (OAM), which has also been proposed for information encoding [5-10]. Analogously, photons also have the capability to encode information in their OAM [11,12]. -
Quantum Machine Learning: Benefits and Practical Examples
Quantum Machine Learning: Benefits and Practical Examples Frank Phillipson1[0000-0003-4580-7521] 1 TNO, Anna van Buerenplein 1, 2595 DA Den Haag, The Netherlands [email protected] Abstract. A quantum computer that is useful in practice, is expected to be devel- oped in the next few years. An important application is expected to be machine learning, where benefits are expected on run time, capacity and learning effi- ciency. In this paper, these benefits are presented and for each benefit an example application is presented. A quantum hybrid Helmholtz machine use quantum sampling to improve run time, a quantum Hopfield neural network shows an im- proved capacity and a variational quantum circuit based neural network is ex- pected to deliver a higher learning efficiency. Keywords: Quantum Machine Learning, Quantum Computing, Near Future Quantum Applications. 1 Introduction Quantum computers make use of quantum-mechanical phenomena, such as superposi- tion and entanglement, to perform operations on data [1]. Where classical computers require the data to be encoded into binary digits (bits), each of which is always in one of two definite states (0 or 1), quantum computation uses quantum bits, which can be in superpositions of states. These computers would theoretically be able to solve certain problems much more quickly than any classical computer that use even the best cur- rently known algorithms. Examples are integer factorization using Shor's algorithm or the simulation of quantum many-body systems. This benefit is also called ‘quantum supremacy’ [2], which only recently has been claimed for the first time [3]. There are two different quantum computing paradigms. -

Experts recommend CT imaging as a diagnostic tool because of the weak points of the nucleic acid amplification test (NAAT). In this study, the detection of COVID-19 from CT images, which give the most accurate response in a short time, was investigated in the classical computer and firstly in quantum computers. Using the quantum transfer learning method, we experimentally perform COVID-19 detection in different quantum real processors (IBMQx2, IBMQ-London and IBMQ-Rome) of IBM, as well as in different simulators (Pennylane, Qiskit-Aer and Cirq). By using a small number of data sets such as 126 COVID-19 and 100 Normal CT images, we obtained a positive or negative classification of COVID-19 with 90% success in classical computers, while we achieved a high success rate of 94-100% in quantum computers. -
A Theoretical Study of Quantum Memories in Ensemble-Based Media
A theoretical study of quantum memories in ensemble-based media Karl Bruno Surmacz St. Hugh's College, Oxford A thesis submitted to the Mathematical and Physical Sciences Division for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the University of Oxford Michaelmas Term, 2007 Atomic and Laser Physics, University of Oxford i A theoretical study of quantum memories in ensemble-based media Karl Bruno Surmacz, St. Hugh's College, Oxford Michaelmas Term 2007 Abstract The transfer of information from flying qubits to stationary qubits is a fundamental component of many quantum information processing and quantum communication schemes. The use of photons, which provide a fast and robust platform for encoding qubits, in such schemes relies on a quantum memory in which to store the photons, and retrieve them on-demand. Such a memory can consist of either a single absorber, or an ensemble of absorbers, with a ¤-type level structure, as well as other control ¯elds that a®ect the transfer of the quantum signal ¯eld to a material storage state. Ensembles have the advantage that the coupling of the signal ¯eld to the medium scales with the square root of the number of absorbers. In this thesis we theoretically study the use of ensembles of absorbers for a quantum memory. We characterize a general quantum memory in terms of its interaction with the signal and control ¯elds, and propose a ¯gure of merit that measures how well such a memory preserves entanglement. We derive an analytical expression for the entanglement ¯delity in terms of fluctuations in the stochastic Hamiltonian parameters, and show how this ¯gure could be measured experimentally. -

The quantum complexity of a unitary transformation or quantum state is defined as the size of the shortest quantum computation that executes the unitary or prepares the state. It is reasonable to expect that the complexity of a quantum state governed by a chaotic many- body Hamiltonian grows linearly with time for a time that is exponential in the system size; however, because it is hard to rule out a short-cut that improves the efficiency of a computation, it is notoriously difficult to derive lower bounds on quantum complexity for particular unitaries or states without making additional assumptions. To go further, one may study more generic models of complexity growth. We provide a rigorous connection between complexity growth and unitary k-designs, ensembles which capture the randomness of the unitary group. This connection allows us to leverage existing results about design growth to draw conclusions about the growth of complexity.
