Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The writing of this paper was necessary because it not only corrected the errors in the initial work entitled, 'The Rudiments of Finite Quantum Computing and Finite Quantum Computer Programming - The 'Q' Bone and the Mathematical Analysis of the IPtX Specification', but it also provides a simple explanation / interpretation of Quantum Computing. In other words, Quantum Physics, and / or Physics in general, as far as the presentation goes, seems more a subject created by a group of INSANE people trying to prove to the World they are Intellectually Superior. Think for a moment, and while doing so consider the topics taught to student of Physics today. Super String Theory: where a 'String', in Geometry, is more fundamental than the Point? Alternatively, consider the concept of the Multi-Universe, a Universe in which there are an Infinite number of Universes, all occupying the same Space at the same time. The insanity goes on¿ and because of Einstein's stupidity; his lack of an understanding in 'Universal Time', and how it is measured, we now have Quantum Theories with 26 Dimensions. Moreover, this says nothing about the proposal of a Scientific Subject whose logical foundation is Uncertainty, Quantum Mechanics. This is preposterous, because you cannot analyze Truth or Falsity of any measurements.Nevertheless, the Computer, whether the Classical Mathematical Theory of Communication, or the Philosophy of Quantum Information Theory, along with the appropriate Software and Hardware implementation, while in the former case, defines the Multi-Facet Telecommunications Device that is used to Process the Frequency Broadcast of a Data Transmission. However, in the latter, the Finite Quantum Computer is something more¿Notwithstanding, however the presentation here attempts to establish that when the appropriate Software and Hardware implementation(s) are of the same design, the only difference between the Data Transmission of the Classical Computer and the Data Transmission of the Finite Quantum Computer is Information Quantization.

Download or read book Quantum Information Theory and the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics written by Christopher G. Timpson and published by OUP Oxford. This book was released on 2013-04-25 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum Information Theory and the Foundations of Quantum Mechanics is a conceptual analysis of one the most prominent and exciting new areas of physics, providing the first full-length philosophical treatment of quantum information theory and the questions it raises for our understanding of the quantum world. Beginning from a careful, revisionary, analysis of the concepts of information in the everyday and classical information-theory settings, Christopher G. Timpson argues for an ontologically deflationary account of the nature of quantum information. Against what many have supposed, quantum information can be clearly defined (it is not a primitive or vague notion) but it is not part of the material contents of the world. Timpson's account sheds light on the nature of nonlocality and information flow in the presence of entanglement and, in particular, dissolves puzzles surrounding the remarkable process of quantum teleportation. In addition it permits a clear view of what the ontological and methodological lessons provided by quantum information theory are; lessons which bear on the gripping question of what role a concept like information has to play in fundamental physics. Topics discussed include the slogan 'Information is Physical', the prospects for an informational immaterialism (the view that information rather than matter might fundamentally constitute the world), and the status of the Church-Turing hypothesis in light of quantum computation. With a clear grasp of the concept of information in hand, Timpson turns his attention to the pressing question of whether advances in quantum information theory pave the way for the resolution of the traditional conceptual problems of quantum mechanics: the deep problems which loom over measurement, nonlocality and the general nature of quantum ontology. He marks out a number of common pitfalls to be avoided before analysing in detail some concrete proposals, including the radical quantum Bayesian programme of Caves, Fuchs, and Schack. One central moral which is drawn is that, for all the interest that the quantum information-inspired approaches hold, no cheap resolutions to the traditional problems of quantum mechanics are to be had.

Uniquely, the book covers state-of-the-art error-correcting codes, including low-density-parity-check codes, turbo codes, and digital fountain codes - the twenty-first-century standards for satellite communications, disk drives, and data broadcast. Richly illustrated, filled with worked examples and over 400 exercises, some with detailed solutions, the book is ideal for self-learning, and for undergraduate or graduate courses. It also provides an unparalleled entry point for professionals in areas as diverse as computational biology, financial engineering and machine learning.
Download or read book Quantum Information and Foundations written by Giacomo Mauro D’Ariano and published by MDPI. This book was released on 2020-03-23 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum information has dramatically changed information science and technology, looking at the quantum nature of the information carrier as a resource for building new information protocols, designing radically new communication and computation algorithms, and ultra-sensitive measurements in metrology, with a wealth of applications. From a fundamental perspective, this new discipline has led us to regard quantum theory itself as a special theory of information, and has opened routes for exploring solutions to the tension with general relativity, based, for example, on the holographic principle, on non-causal variations of the theory, or else on the powerful algorithm of the quantum cellular automaton, which has revealed new routes for exploring quantum fields theory, both as a new microscopic mechanism on the fundamental side, and as a tool for efficient physical quantum simulations for practical purposes. In this golden age of foundations, an astonishing number of new ideas, frameworks, and results, spawned by the quantum information theory experience, have revolutionized the way we think about the subject, with a new research community emerging worldwide, including scientists from computer science and mathematics.

Download or read book A Short Course in Quantum Information Theory written by Lajos Diosi and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-06-02 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short and concise primer takes the vantage point of theoretical physics and the unity of physics. It sets out to strip the burgeoning field of quantum information science to its basics by linking it to universal concepts in physics. An extensive lecture rather than a comprehensive textbook, this volume is based on courses delivered over several years to advanced undergraduate and beginning graduate students, but essentially it addresses anyone with a working knowledge of basic quantum physics. Readers will find these lectures a most adequate entry point for theoretical studies in this field. For the second edition, the authors has succeeded in adding many new topics while sticking to the conciseness of the overall approach. A new chapter on qubit thermodynamics has been added, while new sections and subsections have been incorporated in various chapter to deal with weak and time-continuous measurements, period-finding quantum algorithms and quantum error corrections. From the reviews of the first edition: "The best things about this book are its brevity and clarity. In around 100 pages it provides a tutorial introduction to quantum information theory, including problems and solutions. ... it’s worth a look if you want to quickly get up to speed with the language and central concepts of quantum information theory, including the background classical information theory."
