No-communication theorem
In physics, the no-communication theorem or no-signaling principle is a no-go theorem from quantum information theory which states that, during measurement of an entangled quantum state, it is not possible for one observer, by making a measurement of a subsystem of the total state, to communicate information to another observer. The theorem is important because, in quantum mechanics, quantum entanglement is an effect by which certain widely separated events can be correlated in ways that, at first glance, suggest the possibility of communication faster-than-light.
Quantum network
Quantum networks form an important element of quantum computing and quantum communication systems. Quantum networks facilitate the transmission of information in the form of quantum bits, also called qubits, between physically separated quantum processors. A quantum processor is a small quantum computer being able to perform quantum logic gates on a certain number of qubits. Quantum networks work in a similar way to classical networks. The main difference is that quantum networking, like quantum computing, is better at solving certain problems, such as modeling quantum systems.
Quantum programming
Quantum programming is the process of designing or assembling sequences of instructions, called quantum circuits, using gates, switches, and operators to manipulate a quantum system for a desired outcome or results of a given experiment. Quantum circuit algorithms can be implemented on integrated circuits, conducted with instrumentation, or written in a programming language for use with a quantum computer or a quantum processor. With quantum processor based systems, quantum programming languages help express quantum algorithms using high-level constructs.
Functional completeness
In logic, a functionally complete set of logical connectives or Boolean operators is one which can be used to express all possible truth tables by combining members of the set into a Boolean expression. A well-known complete set of connectives is { AND, NOT }. Each of the singleton sets { NAND } and { NOR } is functionally complete. However, the set { AND, OR } is incomplete, due to its inability to express NOT. A gate or set of gates which is functionally complete can also be called a universal gate / gates.
Quantum Turing machine
A quantum Turing machine (QTM) or universal quantum computer is an abstract machine used to model the effects of a quantum computer. It provides a simple model that captures all of the power of quantum computation—that is, any quantum algorithm can be expressed formally as a particular quantum Turing machine. However, the computationally equivalent quantum circuit is a more common model. Quantum Turing machines can be related to classical and probabilistic Turing machines in a framework based on transition matrices.
Additionneur
Un additionneur est un circuit logique permettant de réaliser une addition. Ce circuit est très présent dans les ordinateurs pour le calcul arithmétique mais également pour le calcul d'adresses, d'indice de tableau dans le processeur. On dénombre deux types d'additionneurs : parallèle (circuit combinatoire) et série (circuit séquentiel). Dans la classe des additionneurs parallèles, nous décrirons ici ceux à propagation de retenue et ceux à retenue anticipée.
Threshold theorem
In quantum computing, the threshold theorem (or quantum fault-tolerance theorem) states that a quantum computer with a physical error rate below a certain threshold can, through application of quantum error correction schemes, suppress the logical error rate to arbitrarily low levels. This shows that quantum computers can be made fault-tolerant, as an analogue to von Neumann's threshold theorem for classical computation.
Trapped ion quantum computer
A trapped ion quantum computer is one proposed approach to a large-scale quantum computer. Ions, or charged atomic particles, can be confined and suspended in free space using electromagnetic fields. Qubits are stored in stable electronic states of each ion, and quantum information can be transferred through the collective quantized motion of the ions in a shared trap (interacting through the Coulomb force).
Algorithme d'estimation de phase quantique
En informatique quantique, l’algorithme d'estimation de phase quantique est un permettant d'estimer la valeur propre (ou sa phase, ce qui, dans ce cas précis, est équivalent) d'un opérateur unité associée à un vecteur propre donné. Les valeurs propres d'un opérateur unitaire U, agissant sur m bits, sont de module 1. Si est un vecteur propre de U, nous avons donc . Le but de cet algorithme est de trouver la valeur de la phase correspondant à un vecteur propre donné, ceci avec une précision de n bits (la phase n'a pas nécessairement une valeur exacte).
Calcul réversible
Le calcul réversible est un domaine de l'informatique qui s'intéresse au fait de pouvoir inverser (physiquement ou logiquement) un calcul. Il s'agit d'un domaine transversal, qui a des applications allant de l'architecture matérielle à l'algorithmique répartie en passant par le calcul quantique. D'un point de vue physique, cela implique que ce calcul n'implique pas de phénomène dissipatif conduisant à une augmentation de l'entropie ; bien qu'il soit physiquement impossible d'atteindre cet objectif du fait du second principe de la thermodynamique, s'en rapprocher permet l'augmentation de l'efficacité des processeurs.
