Emulating a quantum Maxwell's demon with non-separable structured light
Edgar Medina-Segura, Paola C. Obando, Light Mkhumbuza +6
Maxwell's demon (MD) has proven an instructive vehicle by which to explore the relationship between information theory and thermodynamics, fueling the possibility of information dr…
Quantum Skyrmions in general quantum channels: topological noise rejection and the discretization of quantum information
Robert de Mello Koch, Bo-Qiang Lu, Pedro Ornelas +2
The topology of a pure state of two entangled photons is leveraged to provide a discretization of quantum information. Since discrete signals are inherently more resilient to the e…
Emulating quantum computing with optical matrix multiplication
Mwezi Koni, Hadrian Bezuidenhout, Isaac Nape
Optical computing harnesses the speed of light to perform vector-matrix operations efficiently. It leverages interference, a cornerstone of quantum computing algorithms, to enable…
A Variational Approach to Learning Photonic Unitary Operators
Hadrian Bezuidenhout, Mwezi Koni, Jonathan Leach +3
Structured light, light tailored in its internal degrees of freedom, has become topical in numerous quantum and classical information processing protocols. In this work, we harness…
Topological rejection of noise by quantum skyrmions
Pedro Ornelas, Isaac Nape, Robert De Mello Koch +1
An open challenge in the context of quantum information processing and communication is improving the robustness of quantum information to environmental contributions of noise, a s…
