Quantum State Diffusion: from Foundations to Applications

چکیده

Deeper insight leads to better practice. We show how the study of the foundations of quantum mechanics has led to new pictures of open systems and to a method of computation which is practical and can be used where others cannot. We illustrate the power of the new method by a series of pictures that show the emergence of classical features in a quantum world. We compare the development of quantum mechanics and of the theory of (biological) evolution.

Essay Review of Quantum State Diffusion

quantum state diffusion, measurement Quantum state diffusion is a theory which has applications to both the foundations of quantum theory and to the behaviour of open quantum systems, quantum systems interacting with environments. This article is an extended essay review of Quantum State Diffusion  the first book [1] on the theory, written by one of its originators, Ian Percival.

Quantum State Discrimination and Some Applications

Quantum state discrimination underlies various applications in quantum information processing tasks. It essentially describes the distinguishability of quantum systems in different states, and the general process of extracting classical information from quantum systems. It is also useful in quantum information applications, such as the characterisation of mutual information in cryptographic pro...

Designing a hybrid quantum controller for strongly eigenstate controllable systems

 In this paper, a new quantum hybrid controller for controlling the strongly eigenstate controllable systems, is designed. For this purpose, a Lyapunov control law is implemented when the target state is in reachable set of the initial state. On the other hand, if the target state is not in the reachable set of the given initial state, based on Grover algorithm, a new interface state that the t...

Diffusion Weighted/Tensor Imaging, Functional MRI and Perfusion Weighted Imaging in Glioblastoma—Foundations and Future

In this article, we review the basics of diffusion tensor imaging and functional MRI, their current utility in preoperative neurosurgical mapping, and their limitations. We also discuss potential future applications, including implementation of resting state functional MRI. We then discuss perfusion and diffusion-weighted imaging and their application in advanced neuro-oncologic practice. We ex...

Reversible Term Rewriting: Foundations and Applications

Essentially, in a reversible programming language, for each forward computation step from state S to state S′, there exists a constructive and deterministic method to go backwards from state S′ to state S. Besides its theoretical interest, reversible computation is a fundamental concept which is relevant in many different areas like cellular automata, bidirectional program transformation, or qu...
