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 fact that several men were able to become infatuated with that latrine is truly the proof of the decline of the men of this century.”
    —Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)

    “If we view our children as stupid, naughty, disturbed, or guilty of their misdeeds, they will learn to behold themselves as foolish, faulty, or shameful specimens of humanity. They will regard us as judges from whom they wish to hide, and they will interpret everything we say as further proof of their unworthiness. If we view them as innocent, or at least merely ignorant, they will gain understanding from their experiences, and they will continue to regard us as wise partners.”
    —Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)

    “Waiting for the race to become official, he began to feel as if he had as much effect on the final outcome of the operation as a single piece of a jumbo jigsaw puzzle has to its predetermined final design. Only the addition of the missing fragments of the puzzle would reveal if the picture was as he guessed it would be.”
    —Stanley Kubrick (b. 1928)
