Kravchuk polynomials arise as orthogonal polynomials with respect to the binomial distribution and have numerous applications in harmonic analysis, statistics, coding theory, and quantum probability. The relationship between Kravchuk polynomials and Clifford algebras is multifaceted. In this paper, Kravchuk polynomials are discovered as traces of conjugation operators in Clifford algebras, and ...

Fault-tolerant quantum computation is a basic problem in quantum computation, and teleportation is one of the main techniques in this theory. Using teleportation on stabilizer codes, the most well-known quantum codes, Pauli gates and Clifford operators can be applied fault-tolerantly. Indeed, this technique can be generalized for an extended set of gates, the so called Ck hierarchy gates, intro...

The setting is the following: V is a real vector bundle on a compact space X, provided with a non degenerate quadratic form to which we associate a bundle of (real or complex) Clifford algebras denoted by C(V ); the quadratic form is implicit in this notation. We denote by M(V ) the Grothendieck group associated to the category of (real or complex) vector bundles provided with a structure of (t...
