AbstractSimulating the behaviour of complex quantum systems is impossible on classical supercomputers due to the exponential scaling of the number of quantum states with the number of particles in the simulated system. Quantum computers aim to break through this limit by using one quantum system to simulate another quantum system. Although in their infancy, they are a promising tool for applied fields seeking to simulate quantum interactions in complex atomic and molecular structures. Here, we show an efficient technique for transpiling the unitary evolution of quantum systems into the language of universal quantum computation using the IBM quantum computer and show that it is a viable tool for compiling near-term quantum simulation algorithms. We develop code that decomposes arbitrary 3-qubit gates and implement it in a quantum simulation first for a linear ordered chain to highlight the generality of the approach, and second, for a complex molecule. We choose the Fenna-Matthews-Olsen (FMO) photosynthetic protein because it has a well characterised Hamiltonian and presents a complex dissipative system coupled to a noisy environment that helps to improve the efficiency of energy transport. The method can be implemented in a broad range of molecular and other simulation settings.

We consider a quantum system described by a concrete C*-algebra acting on a Hilbert space ℋ with a vector state ω induced by a cyclic vector Ω and a unitary evolution Ut such that UtΩ = Ω, ∀t ∈ ℝ. It is proved that this vector state is a ground state if and only if it is non-faithful and completely passive. This version of a result of Pusz and Woronowicz is reviewed, emphasizing other related aspects: passivity from the point of view of moving observers and stability with respect to local perturbations of the dynamics.

New Framework

Abstract We propose a new framework for simulating U(k) Yang-Mills theory on a universal quantum computer. This construction uses the orbifold lattice formulation proposed by Kaplan, Katz, and Unsal, who originally applied it to supersymmetric gauge theories. Our proposed approach yields a novel perspective on quantum simulation of quantum field theories, carrying certain advantages over the usual Kogut-Susskind formulation. We discuss the application of our constructions to computing static properties and real-time dynamics of Yang-Mills theories, from glueball measurements to AdS/CFT, making use of a variety of quantum information techniques including qubitization, quantum signal processing, Jordan-Lee-Preskill bounds, and shadow tomography. The generalizations to certain supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories appear to be straightforward, providing a path towards the quantum simulation of quantum gravity via holographic duality.

Abstract The behavior of individual microscopic particles, such as an atom (or a photon), predicted using quantum mechanics, is dramatically different from the behavior of classical particles, such as a planet, determined using classical mechanics. How can the counter-intuitive behavior of the microscopic particle be verified and manipulated experimentally? David Wineland and Serge Haroche, who were awarded the Nobel Prize in physics in 2012, developed a set of methods to isolate the ions and photons from their environment to create a genuine quantum system. Furthermore, they also developed methods to measure and manipulate these quantum systems, which open a path not only to explore the fundamental principles of quantum mechanics, but also to develop a much faster computer: a quantum computer.

Identity Based

With the rapid development of quantum computing and quantum information technology, the universal quantum computer will emerge in the near decades with a very high probability and it could break most of the current public key cryptosystems totally. Due to the ability of withstanding the universal quantum computer’s attack, the lattice-based cryptosystems have received lots of attention from both industry and academia. In this paper, we propose an identity-based blind signature scheme using lattice. We also prove that the proposed scheme is provably secure in the random oracle model. The performance analysis shows that the proposed scheme has less mean value of sampling times and smaller signature size than previous schemes. Thus, the proposed scheme is more suitable for practical applications.

Theories of quantum control have, until recently, made the assumption that the Hilbert space of a quantum system can be truncated to finite dimensions. Such truncations, which can be achieved for most quantum systems via bandwidth restrictions, have enabled the development of a rich variety of quantum control and optimal control schemes. Recent studies in quantum information processing have addressed the control of infinite-dimensional quantum systems such as the quantum states of a trapped-ion. Controllability in an infinite-dimensional quantum system is hard to prove with conventional methods, and infinite-dimensional systems provide unique challenges in designing control fields. In this paper, we will discuss the control of a popular system for quantum computing the trapped-ion qubit. This system, modeled by a spin-half particle coupled to a quantized harmonic oscillator, is an example for a surprisingly rich variety of control problems. We will show how this infinite-dimensional quantum system can be examined via the lens of the Finite Controllability Theorem, two-color STIRAP, the generalized Heisenberg system, etc. These results are important from the viewpoint of developing more efficient quantum control protocols, particularly in quantum computing systems. This work shows how one can expand the scope of quantum control research to beyond that of finite-dimensional quantum systems.

It is shown that the whirligig principle can be used for stabilization of the initial states of some classical and quantum systems. This feature of the whirligig principle is demonstrated by simple examples. The most important result of this work is the proof of the fact that the stabilization of the excited states of quantum systems can be realized by acting not on the quantum system itself, but by acting on the states into which the system must go. Potentially, this result can be used to stabilize excited nuclear systems.
