A local phase space stochastic quantization?
Can Gokler
I examine whether Nelson's stochastic formulation of Schrödinger equation could be derived from a phase space process through a colored noise smoothing. If this conjecture is true,…
Quantum algorithm for nonlinear differential equations
Seth Lloyd, Giacomo De Palma, Can Gokler +5
Quantum computers are known to provide an exponential advantage over classical computers for the solution of linear differential equations in high-dimensional spaces. Here, we pres…
Equivalence of quantum harmonic oscillators and classical oscillators subject to random forces
Can Gokler
We show that the Schrödinger equation for the quantum harmonic oscillator can be derived as an approximation to the Newtonian mechanics of a classical harmonic oscillator subject t…
Mean field limit for many-particle interactions
Can Gokler
We provide an error bound for approximating the time evolution of N bosons by a generalized nonlinear Hartree equation. The bosons are assumed to interact via permutation symmetric…
Quantum behavior of a classical particle subject to a random force
Can Gokler
We give a partial answer to the question whether the Schrodinger equation can be derived from the Newtonian mechanics of a particle in a potential subject to a random force. We sho…
Estimation theory and gravity
Can Gokler
It is shown that if the Euclidean path integral measure of a minimally coupled free quantum scalar field on a classical metric background is interpreted as probability of observing…
When is a bit worth much more than kT ln2?
Can Gokler, Artemy Kolchinsky, Zi-Wen Liu +6
Physical processes thatobtain, process, and erase information involve tradeoffs between information and energy. The fundamental energetic value of a bit of information exchanged wi…
Maximizing free energy gain
Artemy Kolchinsky, Iman Marvian, Can Gokler +6
Maximizing the amount of work harvested from an environment is important for a wide variety of biological and technological processes, from energy-harvesting processes such as phot…
Time Independent Universal Computing with Spin Chains: Quantum Plinko Machine
Kevin Thompson, Can Gokler, Seth Lloyd +1
We present a scheme for universal quantum computing using XY Heisenberg spin chains. Information is encoded into packets propagating down these chains, and they interact with each…
Efficiently Controllable Graphs
Can Gokler, Seth Lloyd, Peter Shor +1
We investigate graphs that can be disconnected into small components by removing a vanishingly small fraction of their vertices. We show that when a quantum network is described by…
