Applications of quantum Fourier transform in photon-added coherent state

Abstract

Quantum Fourier transform is realized by the Hadamard gate in a quantum computer, which can also be considered as a Hadamard transform. We introduce the Hadamard transformed photon-added coherent state (HTPACS), which is obtained by letting the photon-added coherent state (PACS) across the quantum Hadamard gate, from this result. It is found that the HTPACS can be considered as a coordinate—momentum mutual exchanging followed by a squeezing transform of the PACS. In addition, the non-classical statistical properties of HTPACS, such as squeezing coefficient, Mandel parameter, etc., are also discussed.

Quantum Fourier transform of polarization photons mediated by weak cross-Kerr nonlinearity

Li Dong, Xiao‐Ming Xiu, Hong-Zhi Shen +2 more

We present a scheme of two-photon quantum Fourier transform at first, where the controlled π/2 phase gate and the Hadamard gates are applied. The indirect interaction between two photons can be realized through a coupling bus provided by a coherent state in Kerr media. Employing photon-number measurements and the corresponding classical feed-forward techniques, the task of low-error quantum Fourier transform can be fulfilled. With revision and modulation on the optical elements, controlled π/2n (n=2,3,…) phase gates are constructed, and the multiphoton quantum Fourier transform can be achieved by integrating these controlled phase gates and Hadamard gates.

Examples of modern quantum sensing and metrology with new results on photon-added coherent states

Jerome Luine, Anjali Singh, Bryan Gard +1 more

Quantum sensing and metrology is the application of non-classical resources to the measurement of physical quantities with precision or accuracy beyond that allowed by classical physics. For many years non-classical resources such as atomic energy quantization, Josephson Effect, and Quantum Hall Effect have been used to define the fundamental units of time, voltage, and resistance, respectively. In recent years non-classical resources such as quantum squeezing and entanglement have been exploited to expand the range of physical phenomena measured with unprecedented precision or accuracy. We summarize some of the recent research on advanced quantum sensing and metrology and discuss our analyses of photon-added coherent states (PACS) of light. These analyses take into account imperfect photon addition and detection processes and show that PACS enable beyond-classical signal-to-noise ratio for photon counting even in cases where the probability of intended photon addition is 80%. We also show that there remains undiscovered fundamental properties of PACS related to their production and implementation.

Experimental demonstration of a Hadamard gate for coherent state qubits

Anders Tipsmark, Ruifang Dong, Amine Laghaout +3 more

We discuss and make an experimental test of a probabilistic Hadamard gate for coherent state qubits. The scheme is based on linear optical components, nonclassical resources, and the joint projective action of a photon counter and a homodyne detector. We experimentally characterize the gate for the coherent states of the computational basis by full tomographic reconstruction of the transformed output states. Based on the parameters of the experiment, we simulate the fidelity for all coherent state qubits on the Bloch sphere.

The Quantum Fourier Transform for Continuous Variables

Gianfranco Cariolaro, Edi Ruffa, Amir Mohammad Yaghoobianzadeh +1 more

The quantum Fourier transform for discrete variable (dvQFT) is an efficient algorithm for several applications. It is usually considered for the processing of quantum bits (qubits) and its efficient implementation is obtained with two elementary components: the Hadamard gate and the controlled--phase gate. In this paper, the quantum Fourier transform operating with continuous variables (cvQFT) is considered. Thus, the environment becomes the Hilbert space, where the natural definition of the cvQFT will be related to rotation operators, which in the $N$--mode are completely specified by unitary matrices of order $N$. Then the cvQFT is defined as the rotation operator whose rotation matrix is given by the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) matrix. For the implementation of rotation operators with primitive components (single--mode rotations and beam splitters), we follow the well known Murnaghan procedure, with appropriate modifications. Moreover, algorithms related to the fast Fourier transform (FFT) are applied to reduce drastically the implementation complexity. The final part is concerned with the application of the cvQFT to general Gaussian states. In particular, we show that cvQFT has the simple effect of transforming the displacement vector by a one-dimensional DFT, the squeeze matrix by a two-dimensional DFT, and the rotation matrix by a Fourier-like similarity transform.

Transformation of coherent state in Hadamard gate via multi-photon catalysis

Feng Chen, Gang Ren, Hai-jun Yu

Abstract Based on two-mode continuous Hadamard gate (TCHG) and multi-photon catalysis, this paper presents a scheme to generate non-classical quantum states via coherent state. When considering the m-photon input and m-photon detection in a -mode, the output state is obtained for the input coherent in b -mode. An interesting finding is that as the amplitude of the output coherent state increases, both the detection efficiency and the fidelity of the output quantum state gradually approach zero. Thus, only certain low-intensity quantum light field states can pass through Hadamard gate. In addition, the quantum statistical distribution and squeezing properties of the output quantum states are also analyzed in detail. Our results show that TCHG is a powerful tool for generating non-classical quantum states under multi-photon catalysis.

Noncommutative q -photon-added coherent states

Sanjib Dey, Véronique Hussin

We construct the photon-added coherent states of a noncommutative harmonic oscillator associated to a $q$-deformed oscillator algebra. Various nonclassical properties of the corresponding system are explored, first, by studying two different types of higher-order quadrature squeezing, namely, the Hillery type and the Hong-Mandel type, and second, by testing the sub-Poissonian nature of photon statistics in higher order with the help of the correlation function and the Mandel parameter. Also, we compare the behavior of different types of quadrature and photon number squeezing of our system with those of the ordinary harmonic oscillator by considering the same set of parameters.
