Controlled NOT Gate - Proof of Operation

Proof of Operation

Let \left\{ |0\rangle =\! \begin{bmatrix} 1 \\ 0 \end{bmatrix}, |1\rangle =\! \begin{bmatrix} 0 \\ 1 \end{bmatrix} \right\} be the orthonormal basis (using Bra-ket notation).

Let .

Let be the flip qubit of .

Recall that |\alpha\rangle\!\otimes\!|\beta\rangle = |\alpha\rangle |\beta\rangle = |\alpha,\beta\rangle .

Famous quotes containing the words proof of, proof and/or operation:

    “The insatiable thirst for everything which lies beyond, and which life reveals, is the most living proof of our immortality.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “The source of Pyrrhonism comes from failing to distinguish between a demonstration, a proof and a probability. A demonstration supposes that the contradictory idea is impossible; a proof of fact is where all the reasons lead to belief, without there being any pretext for doubt; a probability is where the reasons for belief are stronger than those for doubting.”
    —Andrew Michael Ramsay (1686–1743)

    “You may read any quantity of books, and you may almost as ignorant as you were at starting, if you don’t have, at the back of your minds, the change for words in definite images which can only be acquired through the operation of your observing faculties on the phenomena of nature.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)
