In this paper, we use the methods found in [12] to create a continuous variable analogue of Shor’s quantum factoring algorithm. By this we mean a quantum hidden subgroup algorithm that finds the period P of a function Φ : R −→ C from the reals R to the complex numbers C, where Φ belongs to a very general class of functions, called the class of admissible functions. This algorithm gives some ins...

The effect of rule (4) on a series or parallel sequence of quantum mechanical steps is to insure that a conscious observer does not skip a step. This rule effectively places the observer in continuous contact with the system.

Various topics concerning the entanglement of composite quantum systems are considered with particular emphasis concerning the strict relations of such a problem with the one of attributing objective properties to the constituents. In particular we will focus our attention to composite quantum systems composed of identical constituents, with the purpose of dealing with subtle issues, which have...
