Measurability of Wilson loop operators
David Beckman, Daniel Gottesman, Alexei Kitaev +1
We show that the nondemolition measurement of a spacelike Wilson loop operator W(C) is impossible in a relativistic non-Abelian gauge theory. In particular, if two spacelike-separa…
Causal and localizable quantum operations
David Beckman, Daniel Gottesman, M. A. Nielsen +1
We examine constraints on quantum operations imposed by relativistic causality. A bipartite superoperator is said to be localizable if it can be implemented by two parties (Alice a…
Efficient Networks for Quantum Factoring
David Beckman, Amalavoyal N. Chari, Srikrishna Devabhaktuni +1
We consider how to optimize memory use and computation time in operating a quantum computer. In particular, we estimate the number of memory qubits and the number of operations req…
