A Representation of Complex Rational Numbers in Quantum mechanics
A representation of complex rational numbers in quantum mechanics is described that is not based on logical or physical qubits. It stems from noting that the 0s in a product qubit state do not contribute to the number. They serve only as place holders. The representation is based on the distribution of four types of systems on an integer lattice. The four types, labelled as positive real, negat...
متن کاملComplex Rational Numbers in Quantum mechanics
A binary representation of complex rational numbers and their arithmetic is described that is not based on qubits. It takes account of the fact that 0s in a qubit string do not contribute to the value of a number. They serve only as place holders. The representation is based on the distribution of four types of systems, corresponding to +1,−1, +i,−i, along an integer lattice. Complex rational n...
متن کاملThe Representation of Natural Numbers in Quantum Mechanics
The widespread use of numbers and their representation by states of physical systems in science and in computers contrasts with the limited amount of work done on what conditions must be satisfied so that a physical system has states that represent numbers. Here this question is examined for microscopic quantum systems, although some of the results also hold for macroscopic systems. The role of...
متن کاملStates and channels in quantum mechanics without complex numbers
In the presented note we aim at exploring the possibility of abandoning complex numbers in the representation of quantum states and operations. We demonstrate a simplified version of quantum mechanics in which the states are represented using real numbers only. The main advantage of this approach is that the simulation of the n-dimensional quantum system requires n 2 real numbers, in contrast t...
متن کاملA Representation of Real and Complex Numbers in Quantum Theory
A quantum theoretic representation of real and complex numbers is described here as equivalence classes of Cauchy sequences of quantum states of finite strings of qubits. There are 4 types of qubits each with associated single qubit annihilation creation (a-c) operators that give the state and location of each qubit type on a 2 dimensional integer lattice. The string states, defined as finite p...
