Quantum Computers, Explained With Quantum Physics

Ғылым және технология

Quantum computers aren’t the next generation of supercomputers-they’re something else entirely. Before we can even begin to talk about their potential applications, we need to understand the fundamental physics that drives the theory of quantum computing. (Featuring Scott Aaronson, John Preskill, and Dorit Aharonov.)

    But why does 10 cubits require 16 thousand binary bits for equivalent storage? Is it this: if 'q' is the number of cubits, equivalent binary storage required ( to store each of the 1K results?) is q x 2^q? This is 10240. If our binary storage is always doled out in powers of 2 then the *least* amount required to hold 10240 would be 2^14 or '16K' (ie 16384). Is that right? I'm guessing it is not...

    Actually, it was not Feynmann but his colleague, junior and friend Edward Fredkin. It was Fredkin who explain the language of the computer to Feymann and in return, Feymann helped him understand Physics. Fredkin wrote the very first reversible algorithm, and it was his idea to build a quantum computer. He even went further and wrote about the simulation theory of the universe.

    Good question, the video didn't explain that. One classical bit can be in one of two states and 10 classical bits can collectively be in one of 2^10 states. But one Qbit can be in a superposition of 2 states which I suppose would classically be stored with 2 complex floating point numbers and 10 Qbits can be in a superposition of 2^10 (classical) states which would have to be stored with 2^10 complex floating point numbers. (I am not an expert, but I guess technically due to normalization and irrelevance of the phase it could be two fewer in both cases.)

    Mathematically we can think of a qubit as a vector in C^2, then when we have two entangled qubits you take the tensor product and need a vector in C^4. Add another qubit and you end up in C^8... So the dimension goes up by 2^n, with n the number of qubits. The output of the algorithm is this "state vector" from which you can read the probabilities. If you want to simulate this on classical hardware you're essentially doing matrix multiplications with vectors, but the matrices are of the size 2^n by 2^n, which is extremely slow and requires too much memory for n>32 or so

    Due to the superposition the assumption could be that a classical computer would have to store all 2^10 numbers at the same time. So my guess would be that on a computer integer numbers come in 8, 16, 32 and 64 bit packages. Since 8 bit is to less, the next step - 16 bit (called short) - is considered to store a 10 bit number...? So take 1024 16bit numbers and in order to store all possible states at once

Also, we don't need them to build the "other", since we already have many of them (already built or in construction) aroung the world right now (ITER in France, Russia, Germany, China, India, USA with Lockeed Martin and many others, ect), it's just that they can't maintain the chain reaction more than 30s x') And still can't produce more energy than what they require to work yet. With luck, in 30 years Fusion reactors will be a reality before the first commercial quantum computer.

    In my work we build simulation models. A very important part of building models is the use of assumptions - information that is not necessarily true or accurate but allows the model to work well enough to produce useful results. Quantum mechanics has indeed produced useful results over its 100 year history but there is a catch. We have forgotten that the assumptions of the quantum model are not actually laws of nature: they are ASSUMPTIONS. surprise surprise. Quantum physics is a mathematical model created to understand the behaviour of the election as observed in the hydrogen atom. These assumptions while they "work" defy common sense and the greater body of physical observation. Let us not confuse that they are assumption and not reality. There are classical explanations for the so called proof experiments by modelling the election in a way that appreciates it with form and substance. The unveiling of this true understanding will be the dawn of a wonderfull revolution in science. Let us stop chasing mirage assumptions in the hope that they are real

    1) You can imagine binary computers using the values -1 and 1, while quantum computers could use i, -i and everything in between as long as you don't observe the state (you might imagine e^i representation of a circle) 2. When something is quantum is observed, the quantum state has definitively collapsed.

    What makes quantum computing so hard to explain? It's just pure science fiction fantasy. As in there is actually no hard details or explanation of how any of it would work, just wild claims. Things you have never heard about quantum computing. The idea was manipulating quantums to make custom made atoms with ideal properties for even better transistors than silicon. Obviously that's in the realm of science fiction fantasy. At best what you can do with real science and engineering is purify silicon. The tiny amount of trace impurities may actually be abnormal silicon or defect at the subatomic or quantum level. That's called a theory. It's not been verified. At best it's an educated guess. There is actually no hard details for quantum computing because it's pure fantasy and why it's difficult to explain or understand past wild claims.

    I've had this weird pet theory about creating a "block" of not numbers, but rather computational algorithms. Arranging them from simplistic to complex in a series. The idea being, you send a series of formula through with a substitution of all potential functions being mad-lib'd with this block of algorithms. The result of which, I feel would potentially map out the potential patterns hidden in numbers and by relation the potential avenues of travel quantum computations are utilizing to reach a proof.

    This is unfortunately not possible because even if you measure a spin of a particle and the opposite spin is therefor existent in the other particle in entanglement, the reader of the particle would have to communicate the spin of the particle to the other observer at a message of or slower than the speed of light, as superposition cannot be controlled and is completely randomized on observation.
