Quantum Switching Based on the Nearest Neighbor Hamiltonian*

Abstract

This paper describes a quantum switching architecture for nearest neighbor coupling. An efficient quantum shear sorting (QSS) algorithm is used to reduce the number of time steps. For the QSS algorithm, the running complexity of the quantum switching architecture is polynomial in time with the nearest neighbor coupling and the implementation is less complex. The result shows that improved switching is extremely simple to implement using existing quantum computer candidates.
