Quantum superpositions of graphs and causal unitary evolutions

Laboratory : Inria Saclay
Place : Gif-sur-Yvette
Manager : Pablo Arrighi : pablo.arrighi@inria.fr

Context

In classical Computer Science many composite systems are modelled by dynamical networks, for instance computer processes, neurons, biochemical agents, particle systems, market agents and social network users. This because those systems, e.g. social networks agents, have the capabilities to spawn, disappear, connect and disconnect. Whilst standard quantum theory focusses on the quantisation of the individual systems within networks, a recently developed quantum networks theory seeks to quantise all features of dynamical networks—including their connectivity and population.

Resume

The Master 2 student will conduct theoretical research on quantum superpositions of graphs and causal unitary operators that evolve such superpositions without information traveling too fast, i.e., while respecting graph distance.
