Hybrid Classical-Quantum computing is now offered by several commercial quantum computers. In this project, a model of financial options, Statistical Mechanics of Financial Markets (SMFM), uses this approach. However, only Classical (super-)computers are used to include the quantum features of these models. Since 1989, Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA), an optimization code using importance-sampling, has fit parameters in such models. Since 2015, PATHINT, a path-integral numerical agorithm, has been used to describe several systems in several disciplines. PATHINT has been generalized from 1 dimension to N dimensions, and from classical to quantum systems into qPATHINT. Published papers have described the use of qPATHINT to neocortical interactions and financial options. The classical space modeled by SMFM fits parameters in conditional short-time probability distributions of nonlinear nonequilibrium multivariate statistical mechanics, while the quantum space modeled by qPATHINT describes quantum money. This project demonstrates how some hybrid classical-quantum systems may be calculated using only classical (super-)computers.

Hybrid Classical-Quantum computing has already arrived at several commercial quantum computers, offered to researchers and businesses. Here, application is made to a classical-quantum model of human neocortex, Statistical Mechanics of Neocortical Interactions (SMNI), which has had its applications published in many papers since 1981. However, this project only uses Classical (super-)computers. Since 2015, a path-integral algorithm, PATHINT, used previously to accurately describe several systems in several disciplines, has been generalized from 1 dimension to N dimensions, and from classical to quantum systems, qPATHINT. Published papers have described the use of qPATHINT to neocortical interactions and financial options. The classical space described by SMNI applies nonlinear nonequilibrium multivariate statistical mechanics to synaptic neuronal interactions, while the quantum space described by qPATHINT applies synaptic contributions from Ca2+ waves generated by astrocytes at tripartite neuron-astrocyte-neuron sites. Previous SMNI publications since 2013 have calculated the astrocyte Ca2+ wave synaptic interactions from a closed-form (analytic) expression derived by the Principal Investigator (PI). However, more realistic random shocks to the Ca2+ waves from ions entering and leaving these wave packets should be included using qPATHINT between electroencephalographic (EEG) measurements which decohere the quantum wave packets. This current project extends calculations to multiple scales of interaction between classical events and expectations over the Ca2+ quantum processes to include these random shocks in previous codes used to fit EEG data to the SMNI model, that included the analytic forms for the quantum processes but now replaced by qPATHINT. The PI's Adaptive Simulated Annealing (ASA) importance-sampling optimization code is used for fitting the combined classical-quantum system. Gaussian Quadratures is used for numerical calculation of momenta expectations of the astrocyte processes that contribute to SMNI synaptic interactions. This project thereby demonstrates how some hybrid classical-quantum systems may be calculated quite well using only classical (super-)computers.

The classical and quantal behavior of a particle in an infinite potential well, that is periodically kicked is studied. The kicking potential is K|q|α, where q is the coordinate, while K and α are constants. Classically, it is found that for α > 2 the energy of the particle increases diffusively, for α < 2 it is bounded and for α = 2 the result depends on K. An approximate formula for the diffusion coefficient is presented and compared with numerical results. For quantum systems that are chaotic in the classical limit, diffusive growth of energy takes place for a short time and then it is suppressed by quantal effects. For the systems that are studied in this work the origin of the quantal localization in energy is related to the one of classical chaos.

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.

Abstract The article presents a historical overview of the development of the mathematical idea of a quantum computing model - a new computational strategy based on the postulates of quantum mechanics and having advantages over the traditional computational model based on the Turing machine; clarified the features of the operation of multi-qubit quantum systems, which ensure the creation of efficient algorithms; the principles of quantum computing are outlined and a number of efficient quantum algorithms are described that allow solving the problem of exponential growth of the complexity of certain problems.

Quantum computers by their nature are many particle quantum systems. Both the many-particle arrangement and being quantum are necessary for the existence of the entangled states, which are responsible for the parallelism of the quantum computers. Second quantization is a very important approximate method of describing such systems. This lecture will present the general idea of the second quantization, and discuss shortly some of the most important formulations of second quantization.
