Inside computer networks, different information processing tasks are necessary to deliver the user data efficiently. This processing can also be done in the quantum domain. We present simple optical quantum networks where the orbital…
An algorithm for quantum computing Hamiltonian cycles of simple, cubic, bipartite graphs is discussed. It is shown that it is possible to evolve a quantum computer into an entanglement of states which map onto the set of all possible paths…
Computation is an input-output process, where a program encoding a problem to be solved is inserted into a machine that outputs a solution. Quantum computation conventionally relies on classical, external control outside the quantum…
Quantum computers could perform certain tasks which no classical computer can perform in acceptable times. Josephson junction circuits can serve as building blocks of quantum computers. We discuss and compare two designs, which employ…
We establish a formal bridge between qubit-based and photonic quantum computing. We do this by defining a functor from the ZX calculus to linear optical circuits. In the process we provide a compositional theory of quantum linear optics…
Quantum computing has the potential to provide exponential performance benefits in processing over classical computing. It utilizes quantum mechanics phenomena (such as superposition, entanglement, and interference) to solve a computational…
Free electrons interacting coherently with optical fields provide a powerful platform for quantum simulation and quantum control. For kiloelectron-volt electron energies, even optical photon emission and absorption produce appreciable…
Quantum computing promises to revolutionize several scientific and technological domains through fundamentally new ways of processing information. Among its most compelling applications is digital quantum simulation, where quantum computers…
Techniques to control the quantum state of light play a crucial role in a wide range of fields, from quantum information science to precision measurements. While for electrons in solid state materials complex quantum states can be created…
For the development of long-distance quantum networks, sources of single photons and entangled photon pairs emitting in the low-loss wavelength region around 1550 nm are a crucial building block. Here we show that quantum dot devices based…
We derive a computationally efficient expression of the photon counting distribution for a uniformly illuminated array of single photon detectors. The expression takes the number of single detectors, their quantum efficiency, and their…
We explore applications of quantum computing for radio interferometry and astronomy using recent developments in quantum image processing. We evaluate the suitability of different quantum image representations using a toy quantum computing…
Quantum mechanics---the theory describing the fundamental workings of nature---is famously counterintuitive: it predicts that a particle can be in two places at the same time, and that two remote particles can be inextricably and…
Fuelled by increasing computer power and algorithmic advances, machine learning techniques have become powerful tools for finding patterns in data. Since quantum systems produce counter-intuitive patterns believed not to be efficiently…
Vagueness is something everyone is familiar with. In fact, most people think that vagueness is closely related to language and exists only there. However, vagueness is a property of the physical world. Quantum computers harness…
Quantum computers hold promise to enable efficient simulations of the properties of molecules and materials; however, at present they only permit ab initio calculations of a few atoms, due to a limited number of qubits. In order to harness…
Fusion-based photonic quantum computing architectures rely on two primitives: i) near-deterministic generation and control of constant-size entangled states and ii) probabilistic entangling measurements (photonic fusion gates) between…
A bipartite multiphoton entangled state is created through stimulated parametric down-conversion of strong laser pulses in a nonlinear crystal. It is shown how detectors that do not resolve photon number can be used to analyze such…
Scalability and foundry compatibility (as for example in conventional silicon based integrated computer processors) in developing quantum technologies are exceptional challenges facing current research. Here we introduce a quantum photonic…
Quantum computing is experiencing the transition from a scientific to an engineering field with the promise to revolutionize an extensive range of applications demanding high-performance computing. Many implementation approaches have been…
