In this study, an effect that we will call entanglement closed loop (ECL) and that results from the implementation of entangled states through quantum Fourier transform (QFT) blocks, is presented. The dual-channel Bell test can be implemented using two linear polarizers (LP) or two half-wave plates (HWP). ECL allows us to verify that the arbitrary...

In this study, a novel technique for the quantum splitting of multi-qubit gates is presented. This brings innumerable advantages for the analysis of quantum circuits, the design of simulators, and back-ends, which are fundamentally needed in quantum computing development environments. This technique can be applied to any gate that involves two or m...

In this study, a simplified version of the entanglement-swapping protocol, commonly used in the deployment of quantum networks, is presented. Quantum repeaters are essential in extending the range of quantum networks, especially when they are implemented through the laying of optical fiber. The simplified version of the entanglement-swapping protoc...

Quantum Fourier gates (QFG) constitute a complete family of quantum gates that result from an exact combination of the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) and the SWAP gate. Therefore, the Feynman Gate constitutes the simplest example of this family, while the Bell states are the simplest cases of entangled states derived from the family. Moreover, thi...

In this study, we present a simplified version of the quantum teleportation protocol for n-qubits and a generalized version of the superdense coding protocol for n-bits, in both cases, thanks to the cascade splitting technique. Both protocols will be analyzed on three notably different platforms: Quirk simulator, IBM QASM simulator of the IBM Q Exp...

A protocol for the quantum stretching of an arbitrary state among three nonlocal qubits is proposed in this paper. When this protocol is used for making a quantum stretching of a computational basis state (CBS), automatically the same CBS is shared for the three qubits, and this fact can be interpreted as a nonlocal post-processing procedure to tra...

In this study, a technique based on the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) that allows the generation of disjoint sets of entangled particles is presented, in such a way that particles of the same set are entangled with each other, while particles of different sets are completely independent. Several applications of this technique are implemented on t...

Quantum Fourier gates (QFG) constitute a family of quantum gates that result from an exact combination of the quantum Fourier transform (QFT) and the SWAP gate.

There are two big groups of quantum key distribution (QKD) protocols: by polarized photons or by entangled photons. In both cases, the problem is the key redistribution, since such redistribution can be hindered by the cut of an optical fiber, climatic problems as in the case of a satellite link, or problems in the generation of the key itself due...

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images are subject to prominent speckle noise, which is generally considered a purely multiplicative noise process. In theory, this multiplicative noise is that the ratio of the standard deviation to the signal value, the "coefficient of variation," is theoretically constant at every point in a SAR image. Most of the...
