Two-level Quantum Walkers on Directed Graphs I: Universal Quantum Computing

In the present paper, the first in a series of two, we propose a model of universal quantum computation using a fermionic/bosonic multi-particle continuous-time quantum walk with two internal states (e.g., the spin-up and down states of an electron). A dual-rail encoding is adopted to convert information: a single-qubit is represented by the presence of a single quantum walker in either of the two parallel paths. We develop a roundabout gate that moves a walker from one path to the next, either clockwise or counterclockwise, depending on its internal state. It can be realized by a single-particle scattering on a directed weighted graph with the edge weights $1$ and $\pm i$. The roundabout gate also allows the spatial information of the quantum walker to be temporarily encoded in its internal states. The universal gates are constructed by appropriately combining several roundabout gates, some unitary gates that act on the internal states and two-particle scatterings on straight paths. Any ancilla qubit is not required in our model. The computation is done by just passing quantum walkers through properly designed paths. Namely, there is no need for any time-dependent control. A physical implementation of quantum random access memory compatible with the present model will be considered in the second paper (arXiv:2204.08709).

Two-level Quantum Walkers on Directed Graphs II: An Application to qRAM

This is the second paper in a series of two. Using a multi-particle continuous-time quantum walk with two internal states, which has been formulated in the first paper (arXiv:2112.08119), we physically implement a quantum random access memory (qRAM). Data with address information are dual-rail encoded into quantum walkers. The walkers pass through perfect binary trees to access the designated memory cells and copy the data stored in the cells. A roundabout gate allocated at each node serves as a router to move the walker from the parent node to one of two child nodes, depending on the internal state of the walker. In this process, the address information is sequentially encoded into the internal states so that the walkers are adequately delivered to the target cells. The present qRAM, which processes $2^n$ $m$-qubit data, is implemented in a quantum circuit of depth $O(n\log(n+m))$ and requires $O(n+m)$ qubit resources. This is more efficient than the conventional bucket-brigade qRAM that requires $O(n^2+nm)$ steps and $O(2^{n}+m)$ qubit resources for processing. Moreover, since the walkers are not entangled with any device on the binary trees, the cost of maintaining coherence can be reduced. Notably, by simply passing quantum walkers through binary trees, data can be automatically extracted in a quantum superposition state. In other words, any time-dependent control is not required.

Generalized Mathisson-Papapetrou-Tulczyjew-Dixon Equations

We derive two generalizations of Mathisson-Papapetrou-Tulczyjew-Dixon equations from Casalbuoni-Brink-Schwarz type pseudoclassical Lagrangians of Majorana spinors on a Riemann-Cartan spacetime. One has a "color" freedom, which makes the equations of motion also be a generalization of Wong equations. The other is a spinor model coupled with a Rarita-Schwinger field to preserve the supersymmetry. The coupling to the torsion is modified due to the existence of the Rarita-Schwinger field. In both extensions, the Tulczyjew condition is automatically satisfied.

Quantum random access memory via quantum walk

A novel concept of quantum random access memory (qRAM) employing a quantum walk is provided. Our qRAM relies on a bucket brigade scheme to access the memory cells. Introducing a bucket with chirality left and right as a quantum walker, and considering its quantum motion on a full binary tree, we can efficiently deliver the bucket to the designated memory cells, and fill the bucket with the desired information in the form of quantum superposition states. Our procedure has several advantages. First, we do not need to place any quantum devices at the nodes of the binary tree, and hence in our qRAM architecture, the cost to maintain the coherence can be significantly reduced. Second, our scheme is fully parallelized. Consequently, only O(n) steps are required to access and retrieve O(2n) data in the form of quantum superposition states. Finally, the simplicity of our procedure may allow the design of qRAM with simpler structures.

Quantum circuit for the fast Fourier transform

We propose an implementation of the algorithm for the fast Fourier transform (FFT) as a quantum circuit consisting of a combination of some quantum gates. In our implementation, a data sequence is expressed by a tensor product of vector spaces. Namely, our FFT is defined as a transformation of the tensor product of quantum states. It is essentially different from the so-called quantum Fourier transform (QFT) defined to be a linear transformation of the amplitudes for the superposition of quantum states. The quantum circuit for the FFT consists of several circuits for elementary arithmetic operations such as a quantum adder, subtractor and shift operations, which are implemented as effectively as possible. Namely, our circuit does not generate any garbage bits. The advantages of our method compared to the QFT are its high versatility, and data storage efficiency in terms, for instance, of the quantum image processing.

Finsler connection in moving frame formalism

In our previous work, we have defined a nonlinear connection of Finsler manifold which preserves the Finsler metric $L=L(x,dx)$. To make the method easier and more useful in applications, moving frame (vielbein) $θ^a={e^a}_μdx^μ$ formalism for the nonlinear connection is newly considered. We derive formulae to calculate the Finsler connection in the specific case that the Finsler metric depends not on coordinates $x^μ$, but only on moving frame $θ^a$: $L=L(θ)$.

Super Finsler Connection of Superparticle on Two Dimensional Curved Spacetime

We analyze the Casalbuoni-Brink-Schwarz superparticle model on a 2-dimensional curved spacetime as a super Finsler metric defined on a (2,2)-dimensional supermanifold. We propose a nonlinear Finsler connection which preserves this Finsler metric and calculates it explicitly. The equations of motion of the superparticle are reconstructed in the form of auto-parallel equations expressed by the super nonlinear connection.

Cusp singularity in mean field Ising model

An entropy of the Ising model in the mean field approximation is derived by the Hamilton-Jacobi formalism. We consider a grand canonical ensemble with respect to the temperature and the external magnetic field. A cusp arises at the critical point, which shows a simple and new geometrical aspect of this model. In educational sense, this curve with a cusp helps students acquire a more intuitive view on statistical phase transitions.

Killing Symmetry on Finsler Manifold

Killing vector fields $K$ are defined on Finsler manifold. The Killing symmetry is reformulated simply as $δK^\flat =0$ by using the Killing non-linear 1-form $K^\flat$ and the spray operator $δ$ with the Finsler non-linear connection. $K^\flat$ is related to the generalization of Killing tensors on Finsler manifold, and the condition $δK^\flat =0$ gives an analytical method of finding higher derivative conserved quantities, which may be called hidden conserved quantities. We show two examples: the Carter constant on Kerr spacetime and the Runge-Lentz vectors in Newtonian gravity.

Variational principle of relativistic perfect fluid

We reformulate the relativistic perfect fluid system on curved space-time. Using standard variables, the velocity field $u$,energy density $ρ$ and pressure $p$, the covariant Euler-Lagrange equation is obtained from variational principle. This leads to the Euler equation and the equation of continuity in reparametrization invariant form.

Crossover temperature of the spin-1/2 XXZ chain with an impurity

We study exactly the effect of an impurity in the interacting quantum spin chain at low temperature by solving the integrable spin-1/2 XXZ periodic chain with an impurity through the algebraic and thermal Bethe ansatz methods. In particular, we investigate how the crossover temperature for the impurity specific heat depends on the impurity parameter, i.e. the coupling of the impurity to other spins, and show that it is consistent with the analytic expression that is obtained by setting the impurity susceptibility to be proportional to the inverse of the crossover temperature. In the model, two types of crossover behavior appear: one from the high-temperature regime to the low-temperature Kondo regime and another from the N-site homogeneous chain to the (N-1)-site chain with a decoupled free impurity spin, with respect to the temperature and the impurity parameter, respectively.

Application of Kawaguchi Lagrangian formulation to string theory

String-scalar duality proposed by Y. Hosotani and membrane-scalar duality by A. Sugamoto are reexamined in the context of Kawaguchi Lagrangian formulation. The characteristic feature of this formulation is the indifferent nature of fields and parameters. Therefore even the exchange of roles between fields and parameters is possible. In this manner, dualities above can be proved easily. Between Kawaguchi metrics of the dually related theories, a simple relation is found. As an example of the exchange between fermionic fields and parameters, a replacement of the role of Grassmann parameters of the 2-dimensional superspace by the 9th component of Neveu-Schwarz-Ramond (NSR) fermions is studied in superstring model. Compactification is also discussed in this model.

Energy-momentum conservation laws in Finsler/Kawaguchi Lagrangian formulation

We reformulate the standard Lagrangian formalism to a reparameterisation invariant Lagrangian formalism by means of Finsler and Kawaguchi geometry. In our formalism, various types of symmetries that appears in theories of physics are expressed geometrically by symmetries of Finsler (Kawaguchi) metric, and the conservation law of energy-momentum is a part of Euler-Lagrange equations. The application to scalar field, Dirac field, electromagnetic field and general relativity coupled to perfect fluid (added: ver.3) are discussed. By this formalism, we try to propose an alternative definition of energy-momentum current of gravity.

Finite-temperature behavior of an impurity in the spin-1/2 XXZ chain

We study the zero- and the finite-temperature behavior of the integrable spin-1/2 XXZ periodic chain with an impurity by the algebraic and thermal Bethe ansatz methods. We evaluate the impurity local magnetization at zero temperature analytically and derive the impurity susceptibility exactly from it. In the graphs of the impurity specific heat versus temperature, we show how the impurity spin becomes more liberated from the bulk many-body effect as the exchange coupling between the impurity spin and other spins decreases, and also that in low temperature it couples strongly to them such as the Kondo effect. Thus, we observe not only the crossover behavior from the high- to the low-temperature regime but also another one from the $N$-site chain to the $(N-1)$-site chain with a free impurity spin. We also show that the estimate of the Wilson ratio at a given low temperature is independent of the impurity parameter if its absolute value is small enough with respect to the temperature, and the universality class is described by the XXZ anisotropy in terms of the dressed charge.
