Strongly simulating a quantum circuit, that is, computing an output amplitude, amounts to summing the circuit's Feynman paths, a weighted count over assignments to the Boolean ``path'' variables. The circuit's gates induce correlations…

A generalized canonical formulation of the theory of the electromagnetic Fokker interaction for a system of two particles is proposed. The functional integral on the generalized phase space is defined as the initial one in quantum theory.…
