In [Phys. Rev. A 69, 022316 (2004)] we presented a description of the action of local Clifford operations on graph states in terms of a graph transformation rule, known in graph theory as local complementation. It was shown that two graph states are equivalent under the local Clifford group if and only if there exists a sequence of local complementations which relates their associated graphs. I...

We formulate Dirac-Kähler fermion action by introducing a new Clifford product with noncommutative differential form on a lattice. Hermiticity of the Dirac-Kähler action requires to choose the lattice structure having both orientabilities on a link. The Kogut-Susskind fermion and the staggered fermion actions are derived directly from the Dirac-Kähler fermion formulated by the Clifford product....

We report here on the structure of reversible quantum cellular automata with the additional restriction that these are also Clifford operations. This means that tensor products of Weyl operators (projective representation of a finite abelian symplectic group) are mapped to multiples of tensor products of Weyl operators. Therefore Clifford quantum cellular automata are induced by symplectic cell...

Discrete Clifford analysis is a higher dimensional discrete function theory based on skew Weyl relations. It is centered around the study of Clifford algebra valued null solutions, called discrete monogenic functions, of a discrete Dirac operator, i.e. a first order, Clifford vector valued difference operator. In this contribution, we establish a Cauchy-Kovalevskaya extension theorem for discre...

Based on the NilHecke algebra $\mathsf{NH}_n$, odd developed by Ellis, Khovanov and Lauda Kang, Kashiwara Tsuchioka's quiver Hecke superalgebra, we develop Clifford superalgebra $\mathsf{NH}\mathfrak{C}_n$ as another super-algebraic analogue of $\mathsf{NH}_n$. We show that there is a notion symmetric polynomials fitting in this picture, prove these are generated an appropriate elementary polyn...

Recently it has been shown that Repeat-Until-Success (RUS) circuits can approximate a given single-qubit unitary with an expected number of T gates of about 1/3 of what is required by optimal, deterministic, ancilla-free decompositions over the Clifford+T gate set. In this work, we introduce a more general and conceptually simpler circuit decomposition method that allows for synthesis into prot...

This paper seeks ring-theoretic conditions of an integral domain R that reflect in the Clifford property or Boolean property of its class semigroup S(R), that is, the semigroup of the isomorphy classes of the nonzero (integral) ideals of R with the operation induced by multiplication. Precisely, in Section 3, we characterize integrally closed domains with Boolean class semigoup; in this case, S...
