Space-Time Topology in Teleportation-Based Quantum Computation

Published Sep 4, 2013• 3 citations

Abstract

We study the construction of both universal quantum computation and multi-partite entangled states in the topological diagrammatical approach to quantum teleportation. Our results show that the teleportation-based quantum circuit model admits a space-time topological interpretation which makes the construction of both quantum gates and four-partite entangled states more intuitive and simpler. Our results state a deeper link between the space-time non-locality and the quantum non-locality which are the two-fold character of the topological diagrammatical representation.

Connectomes and properties of quantum entanglement

Dmitry Melnikov

Abstract Topological quantum field theories (TQFT) encode properties of quantum states in the topological features of abstract manifolds. One can use the topological avatars of quantum states to develop intuition about different concepts and phenomena of quantum mechanics. In this paper we focus on the class of simplest topologies provided by a specific TQFT and investigate what the corresponding states teach us about entanglement. These “planar connectome” states are defined by graphs of simplest topology for a given adjacency matrix. In the case of bipartite systems the connectomes classify different types of entanglement matching the classification of stochastic local operations and classical communication (SLOCC). The topological realization makes explicit the nature of entanglement as a resource and makes apparent a number of its properties, including monogamy and characteristic inequalities for the entanglement entropy. It also provides tools and hints to engineer new measures of entanglement and other applications. Here the approach is used to construct purely topological versions of the dense coding and quantum teleportation protocols, giving diagrammatic interpretation of the role of entanglement in quantum computation and communication. Finally, the topological concepts of entanglement and quantum teleportation are employed in a simple model of information retrieval from a causally disconnected region, similar to the interior of an evaporating black hole.

Teleportation, braid group and Temperley–Lieb algebra

Yong Zhang

We explore algebraic and topological structures underlying the quantum teleportation phenomena by applying the braid group and Temperley--Lieb algebra. We realize the braid teleportation configuration, teleportation swapping and virtual braid representation in the standard description of the teleportation. We devise diagrammatic rules for quantum circuits involving maximally entangled states and apply them to three sorts of descriptions of the teleportation: the transfer operator, quantum measurements and characteristic equations, and further propose the Temperley--Lieb algebra under local unitary transformations to be a mathematical structure underlying the teleportation. We compare our diagrammatical approach with two known recipes to the quantum information flow: the teleportation topology and strongly compact closed category, in order to explain our diagrammatic rules to be a natural diagrammatic language for the teleportation.

Braid Group, Temperley--Lieb Algebra, and Quantum Information and Computation

Yong Zhang

In this paper, we explore algebraic structures and low dimensional topology underlying quantum information and computation. We revisit quantum teleportation from the perspective of the braid group, the symmetric group and the virtual braid group, and propose the braid teleportation, the teleportation swapping and the virtual braid teleportation, respectively. Besides, we present a physical interpretation for the braid teleportation and explain it as a sort of crossed measurement. On the other hand, we propose the extended Temperley--Lieb diagrammatical approach to various topics including quantum teleportation, entanglement swapping, universal quantum computation, quantum information flow, and etc. The extended Temperley--Lieb diagrammatical rules are devised to present a diagrammatical representation for the extended Temperley--Lieb category which is the collection of all the Temperley--Lieb algebras with local unitary transformations. In this approach, various descriptions of quantum teleportation are unified in a diagrammatical sense, universal quantum computation is performed with the help of topological-like features, and quantum information flow is recast in a correct formulation. In other words, we propose the extended Temperley--Lieb category as a mathematical framework to describe quantum information and computation involving maximally entangled states and local unitary transformations.

Entanglement and quantum teleportation conditions from non-local quantum computing theory

Cheng Hsiao Wu

Entanglement and quantum teleportation are two inter-related subjects and can be explained through four fundamental non-local quantum computing diagonal operator-state relations, which model the conservative phase-interaction between two adjacent atoms of an entangled atomic chain. Each model atom possesses four eigen-states. There exists a minimum focus distance between the two atoms for the entanglement to exist. Consequently, there exist perpetual elastic phase-changing events on the entire entangled chain at every discrete time interval that is evaluated and shown here. It is analogous to Newton’s first law of motion in discrete time. Quantum teleportation means every extra $2\pi$ phase between the atoms can be translated in Fourier space into an additional separation distance, a quantized value.

Quantum Computing and Quantum Topology

Louis Hirsch Kauffman, Samuel J. Lomonaco

Abstract This paper is an introduction to relationships between quantum topology and quantum computing. We discuss unitary solutions to the YangBaxter equation that are universal quantum gates, quantum entanglement and topological entanglement, and we give an exposition of knot-theoretic recoupling theory, its relationship with topological quantum field theory and apply these methods to produce unitary representations of the braid groups that are dense in the unitary groups. Our methods are rooted in the bracket state sum model for the Jones polynomial. We give our results for a large class of representations based on values for the bracket polynomial that are roots of unity. We make a separate and self-contained study of the quantum universal Fibonacci model in this framework. We apply our results to give quantum algorithms for the computation of the colored Jones polynomials for knots and links, and the Witten-Reshetikhin-Turaev invariant of three manifolds.

Algebraic and Topological Study of Bell States and Quantum Teleportation

Yong Zhang, Wei Zeng, Ming Lian

Bell states and quantum teleportation play crucial roles in quantum information and computation. However, a comprehensive theoretical study of both topics remains to be carried out. This work aims to investigate key algebraic properties of generalized Bell states and explore the topological features of quantum teleportation. First, the basis theorem and the basis group are introduced to show that the extension of a generalized Bell basis by a unitary matrix still forms an orthonormal basis. Then, a twist operator is defined to establish a connection between a generalized multi-qubit Bell state and a tensor product of two-qubit Bell states. In addition, the Temperley--Lieb algebra, the braid group relations, and the Yang--Baxter equation are employed to provide a topological description of generalized Bell states and quantum teleportation. The results demonstrate that our approach not only offers a clear illustration of relevant quantum information protocols but also reveals the topological nature of quantum entanglement and teleportation.
