Title: Numerical Simulations of a Possible Hypercomputational Quantum Algorithm

Abstract: The hypercomputers compute functions or numbers, or more generally solve problems or carry out tasks, that cannot be computed or solved by a Turing machine. Several numerical simulations of a possible hypercomputational algorithm based on quantum computations previously constructed by the authors are presented. The hypercomputability of our algorithm is based on the fact that this algorithm could solve a classically non-computable decision problem, the Hilbert's tenth problem. The numerical simulations were realized for three types of Diophantine equations: with and without solutions in non-negative integers, and without solutions by way of various traditional mathematical packages.

Title: Efficient Quantum Circuits Simulation with the Bubble Bit Technique
Author(s): U. Mihai
Abstract: When performed on a classical computer, the simulation of quantum circuits is usually an exponential job. The simulation methodology based on Hardware Description Languages [1] is able to isolate the entanglement as source of simulation complexity. However, it was shown that this methodology is not efficient in the presence of total entanglement, and the probability of such a situation grows exponentially with the number of qubits [2]. The bubble bit technique is designed to avoid the entangled representation of the quantum state, thus allowing the HDL structural description of the quantum circuit, which requires polynomial resources at simulation. We provide experimental runtimes, obtained by simulation of quantum arithmetic and Grover’s algorithm circuits.

Title: Redundant Quantum Arithmetic

Abstract: Redundant number systems have been widely used in the speedup of classical digital arithmetic. This work introduces the concept of redundancy in the quantum computation field. We show that a constant depth quantum adder circuit is attainable under this new framework.

Title: A Special Class of Additive Cyclic Codes for DNA Computing
Author(s): T. Abualrub,

Abstract: In this paper, we study a special class of nonbinary additive cyclic codes over GF(4) which we call reversible complement cyclic codes. Such codes are suitable for constructing codewords for DNA computing. We develop the theory behind constructing the set of generator polynomials for these codes. We study, as an example, all length-7 codes and list those that have the largest minimum Hamming distance and largest number of codewords.
