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.

  • 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.

We view this operation as performed by transmitting nonrelativistic (massive) particles that scatter from the memory. By using a system of (1+1)- dimensional, coupled Schrodinger¨ equations with point interaction and narrow- band incoming pulse wavefunctions, we show how the outgoing pulse becomes entangled with a two-state memory. This effect necessarily induces decoherence, i.e., deviations of the memory content from a pure state. We describe incoming pulses that minimize this decoherence effect under a constraint on the duration of their interaction with the memory.

Introduction Quantum computing [1–4] relies on a sequence of operations, each of which transforms a pure quantum state to, ideally, another pure state. These states describe a physical system, usually called memory. A central problem in quantum computing is decoherence, in which the pure state degrades to a mixed state, with deleterious effects for the computation.

  • Experimental Kernel-Based Quantum Machine Learning in Finite Feature
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Experimental kernel‑based quantum machine learning in fnite feature space Karol Bartkiewicz1,2*, Clemens Gneiting3, Antonín Černoch2*, Kateřina Jiráková2, Karel Lemr2* & Franco Nori3,4 We implement an all‑optical setup demonstrating kernel‑based quantum machine learning for two‑ dimensional classifcation problems. In this hybrid approach, kernel evaluations are outsourced to projective measurements on suitably designed quantum states encoding the training data, while the model training is processed on a classical computer. Our two-photon proposal encodes data points in a discrete, eight-dimensional feature Hilbert space. In order to maximize the application range of the deployable kernels, we optimize feature maps towards the resulting kernels’ ability to separate points, i.e., their “resolution,” under the constraint of fnite, fxed Hilbert space dimension. Implementing these kernels, our setup delivers viable decision boundaries for standard nonlinear supervised classifcation tasks in feature space. We demonstrate such kernel-based quantum machine learning using specialized multiphoton quantum optical circuits. The deployed kernel exhibits exponentially better scaling in the required number of qubits than a direct generalization of kernels described in the literature. Many contemporary computational problems (like drug design, trafc control, logistics, automatic driving, stock market analysis, automatic medical examination, material engineering, and others) routinely require optimiza- tion over huge amounts of data1. While these highly demanding problems can ofen be approached by suitable machine learning (ML) algorithms, in many relevant cases the underlying calculations would last prohibitively long. Quantum ML (QML) comes with the promise to run these computations more efciently (in some cases exponentially faster) by complementing ML algorithms with quantum resources.

  • Quantum Secure Direct Communication with Quantum Memory
    Quantum secure direct communication with quantum memory Wei Zhang1,3, Dong-Sheng Ding1,3*, Yu-Bo Sheng2, Lan Zhou2, Bao-Sen Shi1,3† and Guang-Can Guo1,3 1Key Laboratory of Quantum Information, Chinese Academy of Sciences, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui 230026, China 2Key Laboratory of Broadband Wireless Communication and Sensor Network Technology, Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications, Ministry of Education, Nanjing 210003, China 3Synergetic Innovation Center of Quantum Information and Quantum Physics, University of Science and Technology of China, Hefei, Anhui 230026, China Corresponding authors:* [email protected] [email protected] †[email protected] Quantum communication provides an absolute security advantage, and it has been widely developed over the past 30 years. As an important branch of quantum communication, quantum secure direct communication (QSDC) promotes high security and instantaneousness in communication through directly transmitting messages over a quantum channel. The full implementation of a quantum protocol always requires the ability to control the transfer of a message effectively in the time domain; thus, it is essential to combine QSDC with quantum memory to accomplish the communication task. In this paper, we report the experimental demonstration of QSDC with state-of-the-art atomic quantum memory for the first time in principle. We used the polarization degrees of freedom of photons as the information carrier, and the fidelity of entanglement decoding was verified as approximately 90%. Our work completes a fundamental step toward practical QSDC and demonstrates a potential application for long-distance quantum communication in a quantum network. The importance of information and communication security is increasing rapidly as the Internet becomes indispensable in modern society.

  • Quantum Computing: Lecture Notes
    Quantum Computing: Lecture Notes Ronald de Wolf Preface These lecture notes were formed in small chunks during my “Quantum computing” course at the University of Amsterdam, Feb-May 2011, and compiled into one text thereafter. Each chapter was covered in a lecture of 2 45 minutes, with an additional 45-minute lecture for exercises and × homework. The first half of the course (Chapters 1–7) covers quantum algorithms, the second half covers quantum complexity (Chapters 8–9), stuff involving Alice and Bob (Chapters 10–13), and error-correction (Chapter 14). A 15th lecture about physical implementations and general outlook was more sketchy, and I didn’t write lecture notes for it. These chapters may also be read as a general introduction to the area of quantum computation and information from the perspective of a theoretical computer scientist. While I made an effort to make the text self-contained and consistent, it may still be somewhat rough around the edges; I hope to continue polishing and adding to it. Comments & constructive criticism are very welcome, and can be sent to [email protected] Attribution and acknowledgements Most of the material in Chapters 1–6 comes from the first chapter of my PhD thesis [71], with a number of additions: the lower bound for Simon, the Fourier transform, the geometric explanation of Grover. Chapter 7 is newly written for these notes, inspired by Santha’s survey [62]. Chapters 8 and 9 are largely new as well. Section 3 of Chapter 8, and most of Chapter 10 are taken (with many changes) from my “quantum proofs” survey paper with Andy Drucker [28].

  • The End of a Classical Ontology for Quantum Mechanics?
    entropy Article The End of a Classical Ontology for Quantum Mechanics? Peter W. Evans School of Historical and Philosophical Inquiry, University of Queensland, St Lucia, QLD 4072, Australia; [email protected] Abstract: In this paper, I argue that the Shrapnel–Costa no-go theorem undermines the last remaining viability of the view that the fundamental ontology of quantum mechanics is essentially classical: that is, the view that physical reality is underpinned by objectively real, counterfactually definite, uniquely spatiotemporally defined, local, dynamical entities with determinate valued properties, and where typically ‘quantum’ behaviour emerges as a function of our own in-principle ignorance of such entities. Call this view Einstein–Bell realism. One can show that the causally symmetric local hidden variable approach to interpreting quantum theory is the most natural interpretation that follows from Einstein–Bell realism, where causal symmetry plays a significant role in circumventing the nonclassical consequences of the traditional no-go theorems. However, Shrapnel and Costa argue that exotic causal structures, such as causal symmetry, are incapable of explaining quantum behaviour as arising as a result of noncontextual ontological properties of the world. This is partic- ularly worrying for Einstein–Bell realism and classical ontology. In the first instance, the obvious consequence of the theorem is a straightforward rejection of Einstein–Bell realism. However, more than this, I argue that, even where there looks to be a possibility of accounting for contextual ontic variables within a causally symmetric framework, the cost of such an account undermines a key advantage of causal symmetry: that accepting causal symmetry is more economical than rejecting a classical ontology.

In the medium-term, the power of quantum computing. Machines in this era are however, quantum machines will need to transition to greater reliability through error correction, likely through promising expected to run some important programs and have recently techniques like surface codes which are well suited for near-term been used to by Google to demonstrate “quantum supremacy” devices with limited qubit connectivity. We discover quantum [3]. memory, particularly resonant cavities with transmon qubits Despite this, these machines will be too small for error arranged in a 2.5D architecture, can efficiently implement surface correction and unable to run large-scale programs due to codes with substantial hardware savings and performance/fidelity gains. Specifically, we virtualize logical qubits by storing them in unreliable qubits. The ultimate goal is to construct fault- layers of qubit memories connected to each transmon. tolerant machines capable of executing thousands of gates Surprisingly, distributing each logical qubit across many and in the long-term to execute large-scale algorithms such memories has a minimal impact on fault tolerance and results as Shor’s [4] and Grover’s [5] with speedups over classical in substantially more efficient operations.

  • Quantum Information Processing and Quantum Optics with Circuit Quantum Electrodynamics
    FOCUS | REVIEW ARTICLE FOCUS | REVIEWhttps://doi.org/10.1038/s41567-020-0806-z ARTICLE Quantum information processing and quantum optics with circuit quantum electrodynamics Alexandre Blais 1,2,3 ✉ , Steven M. Girvin 4,5 and William D. Oliver6,7,8 Since the first observation of coherent quantum behaviour in a superconducting qubit, now more than 20 years ago, there have been substantial developments in the field of superconducting quantum circuits. One such advance is the introduction of the concepts of cavity quantum electrodynamics (QED) to superconducting circuits, to yield what is now known as circuit QED. This approach realizes in a single architecture the essential requirements for quantum computation, and has already been used to run simple quantum algorithms and to operate tens of superconducting qubits simultaneously. For these reasons, circuit QED is one of the leading architectures for quantum computation. In parallel to these advances towards quantum information process- ing, circuit QED offers new opportunities for the exploration of the rich physics of quantum optics in novel parameter regimes in which strongly nonlinear effects are readily visible at the level of individual microwave photons. We review circuit QED in the context of quantum information processing and quantum optics, and discuss some of the challenges on the road towards scalable quantum computation. avity quantum electrodynamics (QED) studies the interac- introduce the basic concepts of circuit QED and how the new tion of light and matter at its most fundamental level: the parameter regimes that can be obtained in circuit QED, compared Ccoherent interaction of single atoms with single photons. with cavity QED, lead to new possibilities for quantum optics.
