n-Qubit Operations on Sphere and Queueing Scaling Limits for Programmable Quantum Computer

Wanyang Dai

TL;DR

This work addresses how to operationalize programmable quantum computation by formulating $n$-qubit operations on the $(n+1)$-sphere $S^{n+1}$ and by deriving scaling limits for quantum queueing systems driven by batch quantum random walks on $S^{n+1}$. The main methodological contributions are the rigorous construction of synchronized $n$-qubit operations that preserve normalization on $S^{n+1}$ and the establishment of reflecting Gaussian random-field (RGRF) diffusion limits under two heavy-traffic regimes, including a fixed-qubit-number regime and a variable-qubit-number regime, with drift $ heta t$ and Brownian-driven inputs. The key results show that, under appropriate heavy-traffic scalings, the total workload converges to a RGRF on $S^{n+1}$ (or its infinite-dimensional limit $S^{ fty}$), enabling performance analysis and design guidance for quantum buffers, CPUs, and quantum-channel interactions. These findings have practical implications for selecting an appropriate qubit count and for performance planning in photon- or other-tech programmable quantum computers, by linking quantum-state operations on spheres to queueing-theoretic scaling laws.

Abstract

We study n-qubit operation rules on (n+1)-sphere with the target to help developing a (photon or other technique) based programmable quantum computer. In the meanwhile, we derive the scaling limits (called reflecting Gaussian random fields on a (n+1)-sphere) for n-qubit quantum computer based queueing systems under two different heavy traffic regimes. The queueing systems are with multiple classes of users and batch quantum random walks over the $(n+1)$-sphere as arrival inputs. In the first regime, the qubit number $n$ is fixed and the scaling is in terms of both time and space. Under this regime, performance modeling during deriving the scaling limit in terms of balancing the arrival and service rates under first-in first-out and work conserving service policy is conducted. In the second regime, besides the time and space scaling parameters, the qubit number $n$ itself is also considered as a varying scaling parameter with the additional aim to find a suitable number of qubits for the design of a quantum computer. This regime is in contrast to the well-known Halfin-Whitt regime.
