Piloting a full-year, optics-based high school course on quantum computing
Joel A. Walsh, Mic Fenech, Derrick L. Tucker +2
Quantum computing was once regarded as a mere theoretical possibility, but recent advances in engineering and materials science have brought practical quantum computers closer to r…
Quantum contextuality in the Mermin-Peres square: A hidden variable perspective
Brian R. La Cour
The question of a hidden variable interpretation of quantum contextuality in the Mermin-Peres square is considered. The Kochen-Specker theorem implies that quantum mechanics may be…
Classical emulation of a quantum computer
Brian R. La Cour, Corey I. Ostrove, Granville E. Ott +2
This paper describes a novel approach to emulate a universal quantum computer with a wholly classical system, one that uses a signal of bounded duration and amplitude to represent…
A local hidden-variable model for experimental tests of the GHZ puzzle
Brian R. La Cour
The Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) puzzle has been used to study quantum nonlocality and provide an all-or-nothing, no-go theorem for local hidden-variable models. Recent experi…
Classical Simulated Annealing Using Quantum Analogues
Brian R. La Cour, James E. Troupe, Hans M. Mark
In this paper we consider the use of certain classical analogues to quantum tunneling behavior to improve the performance of simulated annealing on a discrete spin system of the ge…
Derivation of the Onsager Principle from Large Deviation Theory
Brian R. La Cour, William C. Schieve
The Onsager linear relations between macroscopic flows and thermodynamics forces are derived from the point of view of large deviation theory. For a given set of macroscopic variab…
Macroscopic Determinism in Interacting Systems Using Large Deviation Theory
Brian R. La Cour, William C. Schieve
We consider the quasi-deterministic behavior of systems with a large number, , of deterministically interacting constituents. This work extends the results of a previous paper […
Quantum decoherence emulated in a classical device
Brian R. La Cour, Corey I. Ostrove, Michael J. Starkey +1
We demonstrate that a classical emulation of quantum gate operations, here represented by an actual analog electronic device, can be modeled accurately as a quantum operation in te…
Classical model for measurements of an entanglement witness
Brian R. La Cour, E. C. George Sudarshan
We describe a classical model that may serve as an analog for joint and local measurements of an entanglement witness. The analogous experimental procedure and data analysis protoc…
A locally deterministic, detector-based model of quantum measurement
Brian R. La Cour
This paper describes a simple, causally deterministic model of quantum measurement based on an amplitude threshold detection scheme. Surprisingly, it is found to reproduce many phe…
Subspace projection method for unstructured searches with noisy quantum oracles using a signal-based quantum emulation device
Brian R. La Cour, Corey I. Ostrove
This paper describes a novel approach to solving unstructured search problems using a classical, signal-based emulation of a quantum computer. The classical nature of the represent…
Signal-based classical emulation of a universal quantum computer
Brian R. La Cour, Granville E. Ott
In this paper we present a novel approach to emulating a universal quantum computer with a classical system, one that uses a signal of bounded duration and amplitude to represent a…
A General Conditional Large Deviation Principle
Brian R. La Cour, William C. Schieve
Given a sequence of Borel probability measures on a Hausdorff space which satisfy a large deviation principle, we consider the corresponding sequence of measures formed by conditio…
Classical model of delayed-choice quantum eraser
Brian R. La Cour, Thomas W. Yudichak
Wheeler's delayed-choice experiment was conceived to illustrate the paradoxical nature of wave-particle duality in quantum mechanics. In the experiment, quantum light can exhibit e…
