New Construction of an Universal Quantum Network and Its Applications
An Min Wang
Abstract
We proposed a new candidate for the construction of an universal quantum network, which are built from the elementary quantum gates to the elements of quantum circuit, again to quantum subnetworks and finally to a whole quantum network. The main advantages of our scheme are its simplicity and standardization in construction, facility and directness in assembly and scale, reusage and update in engineering, realizability and procedurization in an effective construction. Moreover our universal quantum networks are potentially programmable. It is proved that all the elementary quantum gates can be written as our quantum subnetwork. This implies that our scheme is compatible with the known quantum gate-assembly schemes, and so the known results from a quantum computation to a set of the elementary quantum gates can be directly inherited and used in our scheme. As the applications of our construction scheme, we obtain the whole quantum networks for Shor's algorithm, Grover's algorithm and simulating Schr\\"odinger equation in general. This means that our universal quantum network can generally describe the known main results in quantum computation.
