Quantum gambling using mesoscopic ring qubits

Abstract

Abstract Quantum Game Theory provides us with new tools for practising games and some other risk related enterprices like, for example, gambling. The two party gambling protocol presented by Goldenberg et al. is one of the simplest yet still hard to implementapplications of Quantum Game Theory. We propose potential physical realisation of the quantum gambling protocol with use of three mesoscopic ring qubits. We point out problems in implementation of such game.

Decoherence in flux qubits on mesoscopic nonsuperconducting rings

Marcin Kurpas, Jerzy Dajka, E. Zipper

Abstract The problem of decoherence in recently proposed flux qubits built on mesoscopic normal metal rings is studied. The relaxation and dephasing times coming from the interaction of the qubit with the measuring device are calculated within the weak coupling spin‐boson model. We analyze the effect of the measuring apparatus on the relaxation and dephasing times. The possibility of ohmic approximation for the bath is investigated. Considerably long decoherence times are found. The work is limited to the weak damping regime in low temperatures. (© 2007 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

Quantum Gambling

Lior Goldenberg, Lev Vaidman A, Stephen J. Wiesner

We present a two-party protocol for ``quantum gambling,'' a new task closely related to coin tossing. The protocol allows two remote parties to play a gambling game such that in a certain limit it becomes a fair game. No unconditionally secure classical method is known to accomplish this task.

Quasiclassical theory of electronic transport in mesoscopic systems: Luttinger liquids revisited

Ulrich Eckern, Peter Schwab

Abstract The method of the quasiclassical Green's function is used to determine the equilibrium properties of one‐dimensional (1D) interacting Fermi systems, in particular, the bulk and the local (near a hard wall) density of states. While this is a novel approach to 1D systems, our findings do agree with standard results for Luttinger liquids obtained with the bosonization method. Analogies to the so‐called P (E) theory of tunneling through ultrasmall junctions are pointed out and are exploited. Further applications of the Green's function method for 1D systems are discussed.

Quantum gambling based on Nash-equilibrium

Pei Zhang, Xiaoqi Zhou, Yunlong Wang +6 more

Abstract The problem of establishing a fair bet between spatially separated gambler and casino can only be solved in the classical regime by relying on a trusted third party. By combining Nash-equilibrium theory with quantum game theory, we show that a secure, remote, two-party game can be played using a quantum gambling machine which has no classical counterpart. Specifically, by modifying the Nash-equilibrium point we can construct games with arbitrary amount of bias, including a game that is demonstrably fair to both parties. We also report a proof-of-principle experimental demonstration using linear optics.

Optical realization of quantum gambling machine

Pei Zhang, Y. S. Zhang, Yun‐Feng Huang +3 more

Quantum gambling, a secure remote two-party protocol which has no classical counterpart, is demonstrated through optical approach. A photon is prepared by Alice in a superposition state of two potential paths. Then one path leads to Bob and is split into two parts. The security is confirmed by quantum interference between Alice's path and one part of Bob's path. A quantum gambling machine is demonstrated to be feasible by this way.

The influence of non‐classical electromagnetic fields on persistent currents

Jerzy Dajka, M. Szopa, Apostol Vourdas +1 more

Abstract Persistent currents in mesoscopic rings or cylinders are very sensitive to non‐classical properties of the driving magnetic flux. In the paper we investigate the influence of the quantum and classical noise on the properties of currents. We also study the current characteristics in the presence of maximally entangled states (Bell states) of the non‐classical electromagnetic field. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)
