New Papers

It occurs to me that I'm behind in doing the obligatory paper dance, as our pontiff would say. All from collaborators, one already published and two new submissions:

1. Byung-Soo Choi and Rodney Van Meter,
   Effects of Interaction Distance on Quantum Addition Circuits,
   submitted;
   available from the arXiv as quant-ph:0809.4317.
   


2. Liang Jiang, Jacob M. Taylor, Kae Nemoto, William J. Munro, Rodney Van Meter, and Mikhail D. Lukin,
   Quantum Repeater with Encoding,
   submitted;
   available from the arXiv as quant-ph:0809.3629.
   


3. W. J. Munro, R. Van Meter, Sebastien G. R. Louis, and Kae Nemoto,
   High-Bandwidth Hybrid Quantum Repeater,
   Phys. Rev. Letters 101, 040502, July 2008;
   available from the arXiv as quant-ph:0808.0307.
   Selected for Virtual J. Quantum Inf. 8(8), Aug. 2008.
   
   

More to come in the next couple of months, I hope, on both repeaters and arithmetic circuits; there is also a pile of systems work from last year's QEC conference and other places that needs to be polished up and submitted, as well as a stack of half-completed things...

...ah, for a trio of clones! Then one of us could teach, one could spend time with the family, one could do research, and one would have to do the drudge work. I suppose we'd have to rotate; I love all three of those first topics, but no one would want to be stuck with the paperwork forever :-).
