... standard, or “classical” physics, such as: 1. Superposition. If a system can be in state A or state B, it can also be in a “mixture” of the two states. If we measure it, we see either A or B, probabilistically. 2. Collapse. Any further measurements will give the same result. 3. Entanglement. There e ...

We only assume some background in linear algebra and familiarity with elementary probability theory with martingales, roughly at the level of the inspiring textbook by D. Williams [82]. The model we will investigate likely has a f ...

Quantum Computation and Quantum Information
... simple and obvious, doesn’t it? Like many simple but profound ideas it was a long time before anybody thought of doing information processing using quantum mechanical systems. To see why this is the case, we must go back in time and look in turn at each of the fields which have contributed fundament ...

... more information can be contained in a qubit than in a bit. While a bit has only one bit of information, 0 or 1, the qubit can be represented by a point on a sphere (this sphere is called a Bloch Sphere [Nielsen00]). So, theoretically qubit has an infinite capacity. However, the information in the q ...

The difficulty here is that our observations of particles and of the objects made up of them reveal them to be well localized in space, ...

It is broadly believed that the advent of quantum simulators will represent a technological revolution, as they promise to solve several problems which are considered intractable in a classical computer. Although there are strong theoretical bases confirming this claim, several asp ...

Quantifying Entanglement
... the term Verschränkung (German for entanglement), was a key figure among those who laid the theoretical foundation of this novel concept. In 1935, he penned a prescient passage on the topic of entangled states: When two systems, of which we know the states by their respective representatives, enter ...
