Classical Attack on Bell Inequalities
Aishi Guha, Noah A. Davis, Brian R. La Cour
Representing multi-mode squeezed light with a Gaussian random vector, our locally deterministic detection model challenges the CHSH game, achieving fidelities exceeding 96\%. Squee…
Quantum Games and Interactive Tools for Quantum Technologies Outreach and Education
Zeki C. Seskir, Piotr Migdał, Carrie Weidner +21
In this article, we provide an extensive overview of a wide range of quantum games and interactive tools that have been employed by the community in recent years. The paper present…
A Quantum-Inspired Classical Solver for Boolean k-Satisfiability Problems
S. Andrew Lanham, Brian R. La Cour
In this paper we detail a classical algorithmic approach to the k-satisfiability (k-SAT) problem that is inspired by the quantum amplitude amplification algorithm. This work falls…
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…
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…
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…
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…
Emergence of the Born rule in quantum optics
Brian R. La Cour, Morgan C. Williamson
The Born rule provides a fundamental connection between theory and observation in quantum mechanics, yet its origin remains a mystery. We consider this problem within the context o…
Improving Performance of an Analog Electronic Device Using Quantum Error Correction
Corey Ostrove, Brian La Cour, Andrew Lanham +1
The use of analog classical systems for computation is generally thought to be a difficult proposition due to the susceptibility of these devices to noise and the lack of a clear f…
Local hidden-variable model for a recent experimental test of quantum nonlocality and local contextuality
Brian R. La Cour
An experiment has recently been performed to demonstrate quantum nonlocality by establishing contextuality in one of a pair of photons encoding four qubits; however, low detection…
