没有明确因果结构的量子计算

Quantum computations without definite causal structure

G. Chiribella, G. M. D'Ariano, P. Perinotti, B. Valiron

摘要:

我们表明,量子理论允许转换的黑盒子,不能通过插入一个电路内的输入黑盒子在一个预定义的因果顺序实现。这种变换的最简单的例子是经典的黑盒开关,其中两个输入黑盒根据经典位的值以两种不同的顺序排列。这种转换的量子版本量子开关产生一个输出电路,其中连接的顺序由量子比特控制,量子比特与电路结构纠缠在一起。在具有固定因果结构的电路中模拟这些变换需要后选择,或者对输入黑盒进行额外的查询。

英文摘要:

We show that quantum theory allows for transformations of black boxes that cannot be realized by inserting the input black boxes within a circuit in a pre-defined causal order. The simplest example of such a transformation is the classical switch of black boxes, where two input black boxes are arranged in two different orders conditionally on the value of a classical bit. The quantum version of this transformation-the quantum switch-produces an output circuit where the order of the connections is controlled by a quantum bit, which becomes entangled with the circuit structure. Simulating these transformations in a circuit with fixed causal structure requires either postselection, or an extra query to the input black boxes.
