Mermin polytopes in quantum computation and foundations
Cihan Okay, Ho Yiu Chung, Selman Ipek
Mermin square scenario provides a simple proof for state-independent contextuality. In this paper, we study polytopes obtained from the Mermin scenario, parametrized…
A hidden variable model for universal quantum computation with magic states on qubits
Michael Zurel, Cihan Okay, Robert Raussendorf
We show that every quantum computation can be described by Bayesian update of a probability distribution on a finite state space. When applied to the model of quantum computation w…
Quasi-exact quantum computation
Dong-Sheng Wang, Guanyu Zhu, Cihan Okay +1
We study quasi-exact quantum error correcting codes and quantum computation with them. A quasi-exact code is an approximate code such that it contains a finite number of scaling pa…
Phase space simulation method for quantum computation with magic states on qubits
Robert Raussendorf, Juani Bermejo-Vega, Emily Tyhurst +2
We propose a method for classical simulation of finite-dimensional quantum systems, based on sampling from a quasiprobability distribution, i.e., a generalized Wigner function. Our…
Homotopical approach to quantum contextuality
Cihan Okay, Robert Raussendorf
We consider the phenomenon of quantum mechanical contextuality, and specifically parity-based proofs thereof. Mermin's square and star are representative examples. Part of the info…
The cohomological and the resource-theoretic perspective on quantum contextuality: common ground through the contextual fraction
Cihan Okay, Emily Tyhurst, Robert Raussendorf
We unify the resource-theoretic and the cohomological perspective on quantum contextuality. At the center of this unification stands the notion of the contextual fraction. For both…
