A study on the possibility of high performance computation using quantum tunnelling photons

Abstract

It is widely believed that microprocessor performance will fail to hold in the next decade owing to the brick wall arising from the fundamental physical limitations of the computational process. Instead of conventional processors, the quantum processor is considered to have the possibility to overcome these limitations. However, the influence of the energy cost due to the uncertainty principle, which may prevent speeding up the quantum computation, was not considered. On the basis of the theorem that the evanescent photon is a superluminal particle, the possibility of a high performance computer system compared with conventional silicon processors has been studied. From the theoretical analysis, it is shown that computational energy loss, which utilises tunnelling photons, is much lower than in conventional silicon processors.

Penrose and Hameroff suggested that microtubles in living systems functioned as quantum computers by utilizing evanescent photons. On the basis of the theorem that the evanescent photon is a superluminal particle, the possibility of high performance computation in living systems has been studied. From the theoretical analysis, it is shown that the living system can achieve large quantum bits computation compared with the conventional processors.

Possibility to Construct a Photonic Hypercomputer

Takaaki Musha

On the basis of a theorem, in which an evanescent photon is a superluminal particle, the author considers the possibility of realizing a high performance computer system compared with conventional silicon processors. To realize such a quantum computer utilizing evanescent photons, we must replace electronic components with optical ones, and thus an equivalent optical transistor is required. This critical component for quantum computing can be created using meta-material circuits with a non-linear refractive index. Based on this optical computer system, utilizing metamaterial technology, it can be shown that superluminal computation, which is a new concept for hypercomputation, can be realized in the physical world.

Quantum hyper-computing by means of evanescent photons

Luigi Maxmilian Caligiuri, Takaaki Musha

Abstract Nowadays quantum computation is probably considered as the most promising way to achieve superfast calculation performances to be implemented in the next generation of hyper-computers. Nevertheless, the realization of an hypercomputer, namely a system able to perform countable infinite computational steps within a finite time, is usually considered not allowed due to the Heisenberg uncertainty principle that limits the energy required by such steps. This limitation affects quantum algorithms as well as conventional computation. In this paper we show it is possible to bypass such limitation by considering a quantum system making use of evanescent photons produced by some physical processes such, for example, that occurring inside optical components made of metamaterials. This proposal opens very interesting prospects towards a deeper understanding of quantum information and computation as well as to the realization of an actual hypercomputer system and its applications to frontier fields such as Artificial Intelligence.

Accelerated Quantum Computation by means of Evanescent Photons and its Prospects for Optical Quantum Hypercomputers and Artificial Intelligence

Luigi Maxmilian Caligiuri, Takaaki Musha

The realization of an hypercomputer system, namely an accelerated Turing machine able to perform a countable infinite number of computational steps within a finite time, is generally considered as forbidden by Heisenberg's uncertainty principle, due to the exponentially increasing energy required by computational steps. This limitation would not affect just conventional computation but also quantum algorithms. In this paper we shown it could be possible to overcome this “barrier” by considering a quantum system based on evanescent photons produced inside optical components made of metamaterials. This proposal opens very interesting perspectives towards the realization of quantum optical supercomputer systems based on this new kind of technology in particular with respect to its potential applications in the field of Artificial Intelligence where computational power can be considered as a primary goal.

High-speed quantum-computing emulator utilizing a dedicated processor

Minoru Fujishima, Koichiro Hoh

A quantum computer is highly promising and widely studied since it enables a much higher calculation speed than current computers. Due to physical limitations, however, the current quantum computer can only solve much smaller scale problems than conventional computers. In order to process a large-scale problem at high speed, we have been studying a quantum computing emulator utilizing semiconductor memories. As a result, we have realized a dedicated processor that solves search problems, such as the satisfiability problem, at much higher speed than current computers. Consequently, without using "quantum process," the possibility of a quantum computer executing a large-scale problem is shown.
