Computação quântica baseada em medidas projetivas em sistemas quânticos abertos / Measurement-based quantum computation in open quantum systemsLuiz Gustavo Esmenard Arruda 20 June 2011 (has links)
Usamos um modelo exatamente solúvel para calcular a dinâmica da fidelidade de uma computação baseada em medidas projetivas cujo sistema interage com um meio ambiente comum que insere erros de fase. Mostramos que a fidelidade do estado de Cluster canônico oscila como função do tempo e, como consequência, a computação quântica baseada em medidas projetivas pode apresentar melhores resultados computacionais mesmo para um conjunto sequencial de medidas lentas. Além disso, apresentamos uma condição necessária para que a dinâmica da fidelidade de um estado quântico geral apresente um comportamento não-monotônico. / We use an exact solvable model to calculate the gate fidelity dynamics of a measurement-based quantum computation that interacts with a common dephasing environment. We show that the fidelity of the canonical cluster state oscillates as a function of time and, as a consequence, the measurement-based quantum computer can give better computational results even for a set of slow measurement sequences. Furthermore, we present a necessary condition to the fidelity dynamics of a general quantum state presents a non-monotonical shape.

Environmental Effects On Quantum Geometric Phase And Quantum EntanglementGunhan, Ali Can 01 March 2008 (has links) (PDF)
We investigate the geometric phase (GP) acquired by the states of a spin-1/2 nucleus which is subject to a static magnetic field. This nucleus as the carrier system of GP,
is taken as coupled to a dissipative environment, so that it evolves non-unitarily. We study the effects of different characteristics of different environments on GP as nucleus
evolves in time. We showed that magnetic field strength is the primary physical parameter that determines the stability of GP / its stability decreases as the magnetic field strength increases. (By decrease in stability what we mean is the increase in the time rate of change of GP.) We showed that this decrease can be very rapid, and so it could be impossible to make use of it as a quantum logic gate in quantum information theory (QIT). To see if these behaviors differ in different environments, we analyze the same system for a fixed temperature environment which is under the influence of an electromagnetic field in a squeezed state. We find that the general dependence of GP on magnetic field does not change, but this time the effects are smoother. Namely, increase in magnetic field decreases the stability of GP also for in this environment / but this decrease is slower in comparison with the former case, and furthermore it occurs gradually.
As a second problem we examine the entanglement of two atoms, which can be used as a two-qubit system in QIT. The entanglement is induced by an external quantum system. Both two-level atoms are coupled to a third two-level system by dipole-dipole interaction. The two atoms are assumed to be in ordinary vacuum and the third system is taken as influenced by a certain environment. We examined different types of environments. We show that the steady-state bipartite entanglement can be achieved in case the environment is a strongly fluctuating, that is a squeezed-vacuum, while it is not possible for a thermalized environment.

Quantum Algorithms Using Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Quantum Information ProcessorMitra, Avik 10 1900 (has links)
The present work, briefly described below, consists of implementation of several quantum algorithms in an NMR Quantum Information Processor.
Game theory gives us mathematical tools to analyze situations of conflict between two or more players who take decisions that influence their welfare. Classical game theory has been applied to various fields such as market strategy, communication theory, biological processes, foreign policies. It is interesting to study the behaviour of the games when the players share certain quantum correlations such as entanglement. Various games have been studied under the quantum regime with the hope of obtaining some insight into designing new quantum algorithms. Chapter 2 presents the NMR implementation of three such algorithms. Experimental NMR implementation given in this chapter are:
(i) Three qubit ‘Dilemma’ game with corrupt sources’. The Dilemma game deals with the situation where three players have to choose between going/not going to a bar with a seating capacity of two. It is seen that in the players have a higher payoff if they share quantum correlations. However, the pay-off falls rapidly with increasing corruption in the source qubits. Here we report the experimental NMR implementation of the quantum version of the Dilemma game with and without corruption in the source qubits.
(ii) Two qubit ‘Ulam’s game’. This is a two player game where one player has to find out the binary number thought by the other player. This problem can be solved with one query if quantum resources are used. This game has been implemented in a two qubit system in an NMR quantum information processor.
(iii) Two qubit ‘Battle of Sexes’ game. This game deal with a situation where two players have conflicting choices but a deep desire to be together. This leads to a dilemma in the classical case. Quantum mechanically this dilemma is resolved and a unique solution emerges. The NMR implementation of the quantum version of this game is also given in this chapter.
Quantum adiabatic algorithm is a method of solving computational problems by evolving the ground state of a slowly varying Hamiltonian. The technique uses evolution of the ground state of a slowly varying Hamiltonian to reach the required output state. In some cases, such as the adiabatic versions of Grover’s search algorithm and Deutsch-Jozsa algorithm, applying the global adiabatic evolution yields a complexity similar to their classical algorithms. However, if one uses local adiabatic evolutions, their complexity is of the order √N (where N=2n) [37, 38]. In Chapter 3, the NMR implementation of (i) the Deutsch-Jozsa and the (ii) Grover’s search algorithm using local adiabatic evolution has been presented. In adiabatic algorithm, the system is first prepared in the equal superposition of all the possible states which is the ground state of the beginning Hamiltonian. The solution is encoded in the ground state of the final Hamiltonian. The system is evolved under a linear combination of the beginning and the final Hamiltonian. During each step of the evolution the interpolating Hamiltonian slowly changes from the beginning to the final Hamiltonian, thus evolving the ground state of the beginning Hamiltonian towards the ground state of the final Hamiltonian. At the end of the evolution the system is in the ground state of the final Hamiltonian which is the solution. The final Hamiltonian, for each of the two cases of adiabatic algorithm described in this chapter, are constructed depending on the problem definition.
Adiabatic algorithms have been proved to be equivalent to standard quantum algorithms with respect to complexity [39]. NMR implementation of adiabatic algorithms in homonuclear spin systems face problems due to decoherence and complicated pulse sequences. The decoherence destroys the answer as it causes the final state to evolve to a mixed state and in homonuclear systems there is a substantial evolution under the internal Hamiltonian during the application of the soft pulses which prevents the initial state to converge to the solution state. The resolution of these issues are necessary before one can proceed for the implementation of an adiabatic algorithm in a large system. Chapter 4 demonstrates that by using ‘strongly modulated pulses’ for creation of interpolating Hamiltonian, one can circumvent both the problems and thus successfully implement the adiabatic SAT algorithm in a homonuclear three qubit system. The ‘strongly modulated pulses’ (SMP) are computer optimized pulses in which the evolution under the internal Hamiltonian of the system and RF inhomogeneities associated with the probe is incorporated while generating the SMPs. This results in precise implementation of unitary operators by these pulses. This work also demonstrates that the strongly modulated pulses tremendously reduce the time taken for the implementation of the algorithm, can overcome problems associated with decoherence and will be the modality in future implementation of quantum information processing by NMR.
Quantum search algorithm, involving a large number of qubits, is highly sensitive to errors in the physical implementation of the unitary operators. This can put an upper limit to the size of the data base that can be practically searched. The lack of robustness of the quantum search algorithm for a large number of qubits, arises from the fact that stringent ‘phase-matching’ conditions are imposed on the algorithm. To overcome this problem, a modified operator for the search algorithm has been suggested by Tulsi [40]. He has theoretically shown that even when there are errors in implementation of the unitary operators, the search algorithm with his modified operator converges to the target state while the original Grover’s algorithm fails. Chapter 5, presents the experimental NMR implementation of the modified search algorithm with errors and its comparison with the original Grover’s search algorithm. We experimentally validate the theoretical predictions made by Tulsi that the introduction of compensatory Walsh-Hadamard and phase-flip operations refocuses the errors.
Experimental Quantum Information Processing is in a nascent stage and it would be too early to predict its future. The excitement on this topic is still very prevalent and many options are being explored to enhance the hardware and software know-how. This thesis endeavors in this direction and probes the experimental feasibility of the quantum algorithms in an NMR quantum information processor.

Towards the creation of high-fidelity Fock states of neutral atomsMedellin Salas, David de Jesus 25 September 2013 (has links)
This dissertation presents the implementation of a technique to generate atomic Fock states of Lithium 6 with ultra-high fidelity, called laser culling. Fock states, atomic states with a definite number of particles, are a mandatory step for studying few-body quantum phenomena such as quantum tunneling, quantum entanglement, and serve as building blocks for quantum simulators. The creation of ultra-high fidelity Fock states begins with a degenerate Fermi gas in an optical dipole trap. Being fermions, lithium-6 atoms fill the energy levels of the dipole trap with 2 atoms per energy level. Introducing a magnetic field gradient creates a linear potential that tilts the potential produced by the optical dipole trap. The initially bound energy levels become quasi-bound states, each with a different lifetime. By exploiting the difference between these lifetimes, one can generate a single pair of atoms in the ground state of the trap with fidelities that can exceed 99.9%. This dissertation first presents the details of the design and construction of an apparatus for laser culling, and then reports on the progress made towards the creation of atomic Fock states with ultra-high fidelity. / text

Discrete quantum walks and quantum image processingVenegas-Andraca, Salvador Elías January 2005 (has links)
In this thesis we have focused on two topics: Discrete Quantum Walks and Quantum Image Processing. Our work is a contribution within the field of quantum computation from the perspective of a computer scientist. With the purpose of finding new techniques to develop quantum algorithms, there has been an increasing interest in studying Quantum Walks, the quantum counterparts of classical random walks. Our work in quantum walks begins with a critical and comprehensive assessment of those elements of classical random walks and discrete quantum walks on undirected graphs relevant to algorithm development. We propose a model of discrete quantum walks on an infinite line using pairs of quantum coins under different degrees of entanglement, as well as quantum walkers in different initial state configurations, including superpositions of corresponding basis states. We have found that the probability distributions of such quantum walks have particular forms which are different from the probability distributions of classical random walks. Also, our numerical results show that the symmetry properties of quantum walks with entangled coins have a non-trivial relationship with corresponding initial states and evolution operators. In addition, we have studied the properties of the entanglement generated between walkers, in a family of discrete Hadamard quantum walks on an infinite line with one coin and two walkers. We have found that there is indeed a relation between the amount of entanglement available in each step of the quantum walk and the symmetry of the initial coin state. However, as we show with our numerical simulations, such a relation is not straightforward and, in fact, it can be counterintuitive. Quantum Image Processing is a blend of two fields: quantum computation and image processing. Our aim has been to promote cross-fertilisation and to explore how ideas from quantum computation could be used to develop image processing algorithms. Firstly, we propose methods for storing and retrieving images using non-entangled and entangled qubits. Secondly, we study a case in which 4 different values are randomly stored in a single qubit, and show that quantum mechanical properties can, in certain cases, allow better reproduction of original stored values compared with classical methods. Finally, we briefly note that entanglement may be used as a computational resource to perform hardware-based pattern recognition of geometrical shapes that would otherwise require classical hardware and software.

Towards large-scale quantum computationFowler, Austin Greig Unknown Date (has links) (PDF)
This thesis deals with a series of quantum computer implementation issues from the Kane 31P in 28Si architecture to Shor’s integer factoring algorithm and beyond. The discussion begins with simulations of the adiabatic Kane CNOT and readout gates, followed by linear nearest neighbor implementations of 5-qubit quantum error correction with and without fast measurement. A linear nearest neighbor circuit implementing Shor’s algorithm is presented, then modified to remove the need for exponentially small rotation gates. Finally, a method of constructing optimal approximations of arbitrary single-qubit fault-tolerant gates is described and applied to the specific case of the remaining rotation gates required by Shor’s algorithm.

Estudo da decoerência e da dissipação quântica durante a evolução temporal de dois qubits ditadas por operações unitárias controladas / Study of quantum decoherence and dissipation, during a two qubits temporal evolution controlled by unitary operationsFelipe Fernandes Fanchini 23 August 2004 (has links)
Nessa dissertação, abordamos o problema de dois qubits interagindo com campos externos e entre si controladamente, de acordo com um Hamiltoniano considerado realista para implementação da porta lógica quântica XOR. Introduzimos acoplamentos entre as observáveis do sistema de dois qubits e um banho de osciladores harmônicos a fim de tratarmos o problema da dissipação e da decoerência. Primeiramente nós consideramos o limite no qual a decoerência é mais rápida que qualquer processo gerado pelo Hamiltoniano do sistema. Prosseguimos então, através do método numérico conhecido como Integrador Unitário, com o estudo da matriz densidade do sistema durante a operação da porta lógica quântica sem incluir, inicialmente, o acoplamento com o banho de osciladores harmônicos. Finalmente, implementamos o método numérico conhecido como Propagador quase adiabático para estudar a decoerência e a dissipação durante a operação da porta lógica quântica XOR, a fim de analisarmos os aspectos perturbativos do sistema quântico de dois qubits. / In this dissertation, we approach the problem of two qubits interading with themselves and with externa1 fields in a controlled way, according to a Hamiltonian considered realistic to implement the XOR quantum gate. We introduce couplings between the observables of the two-qubits system and of a bath of harmonic oscillators, to treat the problems of dissipation and decoherence. Preliminarly, we consider the limit in which decoherence is faster than any process dictated by the Hamiltonian evolution of the system. Then, through a unitary-integrator numerical method, we proceed with the study of the evolution of the density matrix of the system during the operation of the logical quantum gate, initially, without the coupling with the bath of harmonic oscillators. Finally, we use the quasiadiabatic path integral method to study the dissipation and decoherence during the logical operation, through the inclusion of the bath.
