Systematics of g factors of 2_1^+ states in even-even nuclei from Gd to Pt: A microscopic description by the projected shell model

The systematics of g factor of first excited 2^+ state vs neutron number N is studied by the projected shell model. The study covers the even-even nuclei of all isotopic chains from Gd to Pt. g factors are calculated by using the many-body wavefunctions that reproduces well the energy levels and B(E2)'s of the ground-state bands. For Gd to W isotopes the characteristic feature of the g factor data along an isotopic chain is described by the present model. Deficiency of the model in the g factor description for the heavier Os and Pt isotopes is discussed.

Construction of Elementary Gates in Quantum Computation by Joint Measurement

In this paper, elementary quantum gate operations, such as the phase gate, the controlled-NOT gate, the swap and the Fredkin gate are constructed using joint measurement and pairs of entangled qubit pairs. The relation between the state of the entangled pair and the joint measurement basis is discussed. Some other generalization is also discussed.

Distinctness of ensembles having the same density matrix and the nature of liquid NMR quantum computing

We show that differently constructed ensembles having the same density matrix may be physically distinguished by observing fluctuations of some observables. An explicit expression for fluctuations of an observable in an ensemble is given. This result challenges Peres's fundamental postulate and seems to be contrary to the widely-spread belief that ensembles with the same density matrix are physically identical. This leads us to suggest that the current liquid NMR quantum computing is truly quantum-mechanical in nature.

Nuclear structure of 178Hf related to the spin-16, 31-year isomer

The projected shell model is used to study the multi-quasiparticle and collective excitations of 178Hf. With an axially symmetric basis, the spin-16 isomer at 2.4 MeV appears to be well separated in energy/spin space from other configurations. However, projected energy surface calculations suggest that 178Hf has significant softness to axially asymmetric shapes, which can strongly modify the level distribution. The implications for photodeexitation of the isomer are discussed.

Nuclear magnetic dipole properties and the triaxial deformation

Nuclear magnetic dipole properties of ground bands and gamma-vibrational bands are studied for the first time using the triaxial projected shell model approach. The study is carried out for the Dy and Er isotopic chains, ranging from transitional to well-deformed region. It is found that the g-factor ratio of the 2^+ state in ground bands to that of gamma-bands, r=g(2^+, gamma-vib)/g(2^+, ground), varies along an isotopic chain. With the gamma-deformations, which best reproduce the energy levels for both bands, we obtain a qualitative agreement with the experimental data. This result thus suggests that study of the ratio may provide an important information on the triaxial deformation of a nuclear system. The angular-momentum dependence of the ground band g-factor on the triaxial deformation is also investigated.

General Phase Matching Condition for Quantum Searching

We present a general phase matching condition for the quantum search algorithm with arbitrary unitary transformation and arbitrary phase rotations. We show by an explicit expression that the phase matching condition depends both on the unitary transformation U and the initial state. Assuming that the initial amplitude distribution is an arbitrary superposition sinθ_0 |1> + cosθ_0 e^{iδ} |2> with |1> = {1 / sinβ} \sum_k |τ_k> <τ_k|U|0> and |2> = {1 / cosβ} \sum_{i \ne τ}|i> , where |τ_k> is a marked state and \sinβ= \sqrt{\sum_k|U_{τ_k 0}|^2} is determined by the matrix elements of unitary transformation U between |τ_k> and the |0> state, then the general phase matching condition is tan{θ/ 2} [cos 2β+ tanθ_0 cosδsin 2β]= tan{ϕ/ 2} [1-tanθ_0 sinδsin 2βtan{θ/ 2}], where θand ϕare the phase rotation angles for |0> and |τ_k>, respectively. This generalizes previous conclusions in which the dependence of phase matching condition on $U$ and the initial state has been disguised. We show that several phase conditions previously discussed in the literature are special cases of this general one, which clarifies the question of which condition should be regarded as exact.

Efficient Scheme for Initializing a Quantum Register with an Arbitrary Superposed State

Preparation of a quantum register is an important step in quantum computation and quantum information processing. It is straightforward to build a simple quantum state such as $|i_1 i_2 ... i_n\ket$ with $i_j$ being either 0 or 1, but is a non-trivial task to construct an {\it arbitrary} superposed quantum state. In this Paper, we present a scheme that can most generally initialize a quantum register with an arbitrary superposition of basis states. Implementation of this scheme requires $O(Nn^2)$ standard 1- and 2-bit gate operations, {\it without introducing additional quantum bits}. Application of the scheme in some special cases is discussed.

Effects of Imperfect Gate Operations in Shor's Prime Factorization Algorithm

The effects of imperfect gate operations in implementation of Shor's prime factorization algorithm are investigated. The gate imperfections may be classified into three categories: the systematic error, the random error, and the one with combined errors. It is found that Shor's algorithm is robust against the systematic errors but is vulnerable to the random errors. Error threshold is given to the algorithm for a given number $N$ to be factorized.

Superdeformed Band in ^{36}Ar Described by Projected Shell Model

The projected shell model implements shell model configuration mixing in the projected deformed basis. Our analysis on the recently observed superdeformed band in $^{36}$Ar suggests that the neutron and proton 2-quasiparticle and the 4-quasiparticle bands cross the superdeformed ground band at the same angular momentum. This constitutes a picture of band disturbance in which the first and the second band-crossing, commonly seen at separate rotation frequencies in heavy nuclei, occur simultaneously. We also attempt to understand the assumptions of two previous theoretical calculations which interpreted this band. Electromagnetic properties of the band are predicted.
