Abstract
A computer system includes a deterministic computer that provides a non-recursive functional to a quantum system encoder. The quantum system encoder encodes the non-recursive functional into a first quantum system. The first quantum state is transformed to a second quantum state by an operator that includes a Topological Order Processing Element (TOPE). A quantum allegory generator provides an oracle to the operator.
Claims21
A method for determining a solution for a non-recursive functional comprising:
- receiving a non-recursive functional from a deterministic computer system;
- encoding the non-recursive functional into a quantum system A;
- transforming the quantum system A to quantum system B using a quantum allegory operator as an oracle of the solution to the non-recursive functional;
- combining a complement of the quantum system A with the quantum system B;
- and
- determining whether the complement of the quantum system A cancels the phase of the quantum system B.
