Characterization of non-universal two-qubit Hamiltonians
(University of Waterloo, 2009-12-16)It is known that almost all 2-qubit gates are universal for quantum computing (Lloyd 1995; Deutsch, Barenco, Eckert 1995). However, an explicit characterization of non-universal 2-qubit gates is not known. We consider a ... -
Computational Methods for the Measurement of Entanglement in Condensed Matter Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2014-06-19)At the interface of quantum information and condensed matter physics, the study of entanglement in quantum many-body systems requires a new toolset which combines concepts from each. This thesis introduces a set of ...
