Maximum speed of quantum gate operation
Lev B. Levitin, Tommaso Toffoli, Zachary Walton
We consider a quantum gate, driven by a general time-dependent Hamiltonian, that complements the state of a qubit and then adds to it an arbitrary phase shift. It is shown that the…
On the possibility of supercavitation in the quantum ether
Karl Svozil
In this speculative note some of the conceivable options of supercavitation in the vacuum of quantized field theory are discussed. The resulting modes of propagation could in princ…
Finite automata models of quantized systems: conceptual status and outlook
Karl Svozil
Since Edward Moore, finite automata theory has been inspired by physics, in particular by quantum complementarity. We review automaton complementarity, reversible automata and the…
Logical equivalence between generalized urn models and finite automata
Karl Svozil
To every generalized urn model there exists a finite (Mealy) automaton with identical propositional calculus. The converse is true as well.
Peer review in context
Karl Svozil
Scientific publishing is in a transition between the old paper-bound, static forms and the new electronic media with its interactive, dynamic possibilities. This takes place in the…
The dangerous misconceptions of Sir Karl Raimund Popper
Karl Svozil
Insofar as Sir Karl Raimund Popper's writings deal with political statements, they are evident; yet insofar as they deal with scientific issues, they are misleading. If applied to…
