Information vs. Disturbance in Dimension D

P. Oscar Boykin, Vwani P. Roychowdhury

We show that for Eve to get information in one basis about a state, she must cause errors in all bases that are mutually unbiased to that basis. Our result holds in any dimension.…

Threshold Error Penalty for Fault Tolerant Computation with Nearest Neighbour Communication

T. Szkopek, P. O. Boykin, H. Fan +5

The error threshold for fault tolerant quantum computation with concatenated encoding of qubits is penalized by internal communication overhead. Many quantum computation proposals…

A Statistical Mechanical Load Balancer for the Web

Jesse S. A. Bridgewater, P. Oscar Boykin, Vwani P. Roychowdhury

The maximum entropy principle from statistical mechanics states that a closed system attains an equilibrium distribution that maximizes its entropy. We first show that for graphs w…

Scalable Percolation Search in Power Law Networks

Nima Sarshar, P. Oscar Boykin, Vwani P. Roychowdhury

We introduce a scalable searching algorithm for finding nodes and contents in random networks with Power-Law (PL) and heavy-tailed degree distributions. The network is searched usi…
