Download or read book Quantum Information Computation and Cryptography written by Fabio Benatti and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-21 with total page 357 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This multi-authored textbook addresses graduate students with a background in physics, mathematics or computer science. No research experience is necessary. Consequently, rather than comprehensively reviewing the vast body of knowledge and literature gathered in the past twenty years, this book concentrates on a number of carefully selected aspects of quantum information theory and technology. Given the highly interdisciplinary nature of the subject, the multi-authored approach brings together different points of view from various renowned experts, providing a coherent picture of the subject matter. The book consists of ten chapters and includes examples, problems, and exercises. The first five present the mathematical tools required for a full comprehension of various aspects of quantum mechanics, classical information, and coding theory. Chapter 6 deals with the manipulation and transmission of information in the quantum realm. Chapters 7 and 8 discuss experimental implementations of quantum information ideas using photons and atoms. Finally, chapters 9 and 10 address ground-breaking applications in cryptography and computation.

Download or read book Feynman And Computation written by Anthony Hey and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-03-08 with total page 463 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Computational properties of use to biological organisms or to the construction of computers can emerge as collective properties of systems having a large number of simple equivalent components (or neurons). The physical meaning of content-addressable memory is described by an appropriate phase space flow of the state of a system. A model of such a system is given, based on aspects of neurobiology but readily adapted to integrated circuits. The collective properties of this model produce a content-addressable memory which correctly yields an entire memory from any subpart of sufficient size. The algorithm for the time evolution of the state of the system is based on asynchronous parallel processing. Additional emergent collective properties include some capacity for generalization, familiarity recognition, categorization, error correction, and time sequence retention. The collective properties are only weakly sensitive to details of the modeling or the failure of individual devices.
Download or read book Digital Physics written by Ediho Lokanga and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-01-21 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital Physics: The Physics of Information, Computation, Self-Organization and Consciousness Q&A is another digital physics book, by the Congolese-born, British-based, Ediho Lokanga. A fascinating book by the African scientist. In it, he attempts to refute several criticisms of his books and offers further arguments, insights, clarifications, and developments of the main idea of digital physics (DP), offering an original vision of reality. In this book, he presents a brief survey of the main idea discussed in his three previous books. For many years now, physicists have been trying to come up with a wonderful theory which will explain everything in the universe and make sense of everything around us. This would be a staggering and wonderful achievement. Digital physicists have added their names to the quest for a ToE from the viewpoint of computation. Physicists are busy attempting to synthesize quantum and relativistic physics. A rich variety of approaches has emerged, and these are competing against each other. The most prominent include string theory (ST), loop quantum gravity (LQG), causal sets, Euclidean gravity, topological quantum field theory (TQFT), non-commutative geometry, Penrose's twistor theory etc. Digital physicists believe they may be able to provide a possible solution to the problem of reconciling general relativity (GR) with quantum mechanics (QM) in the ongoing effort towards a possible theory of quantum gravity, which will better explain the universe in which we live. This would represent a leap forward in the human species' quest for a ToE. For students and researchers this DP Q&A can act as a starting point and an up-to-date reference for developing such a broader perspective. The Q&A presents an overview of some of the many ideas, problems and outstanding philosophical and technical issues. The book introduces the problems of quantum gravity (QG) and ToE, and raises some of the fundamental issues that researchers are trying to address. The book and Q&A are presented at an intermediate and advanced level, but use a non-technical approach so that the reader is exposed to the basic ideas as well as an overview of the results achieved so far.

Download or read book Principles Of Quantum Computation And Information A Comprehensive Textbook written by Benenti Giuliano and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2018-12-12 with total page 704 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Quantum computation and information is a rapidly developing interdisciplinary field. It is not easy to understand its fundamental concepts and central results without facing numerous technical details. This book provides the reader with a useful guide. In particular, the initial chapters offer a simple and self-contained introduction; no previous knowledge of quantum mechanics or classical computation is required.Various important aspects of quantum computation and information are covered in depth, starting from the foundations (the basic concepts of computational complexity, energy, entropy, and information, quantum superposition and entanglement, elementary quantum gates, the main quantum algorithms, quantum teleportation, and quantum cryptography) up to advanced topics (like entanglement measures, quantum discord, quantum noise, quantum channels, quantum error correction, quantum simulators and tensor networks).It can be used as a broad range textbook for a course in quantum information and computation, both for upper-level undergraduate students and for graduate students. It contains a large number of solved exercises, which are an essential complement to the text, as they will help the student to become familiar with the subject. The book may also be useful as general education for readers who want to know the fundamental principles of quantum information and computation and who have the basic background acquired from their undergraduate course in physics, mathematics, or computer science, as well as for researchers interested in some of the latest spin-off of the field, including the use of quantum information in the theories of many-body systems.
Download or read book Programming the Universe written by Seth Lloyd and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-03-13 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Is the universe actually a giant quantum computer? According to Seth Lloyd, the answer is yes. All interactions between particles in the universe, Lloyd explains, convey not only energy but also information–in other words, particles not only collide, they compute. What is the entire universe computing, ultimately? “Its own dynamical evolution,” he says. “As the computation proceeds, reality unfolds.” Programming the Universe, a wonderfully accessible book, presents an original and compelling vision of reality, revealing our world in an entirely new light.
