The compiled record

The paper's own sentences, arranged. Each label is drawn from a closed vocabulary; the number beside it is the probability the classifier gave that label. Numbers in the tables are the authors', checked by code. No sentence in this record was written by a model.

The abstract, sentence by sentence

arXiv listing abstract v2. Results and the main claim are underlined; .

We study a special inhomogeneous quantum network consisting of a ring of $M$ pseudo-spins (here $M = 4$) sequentially coupled to one and the same central spin under the influence of given pulse sequences (quantum gate operations). This architecture could be visualized as a quantum Turing machine with a cyclic ``tape''. Rather than input-output-relations we investigate the resulting process, i.e. the correlation between one- and two-point expectation values (``correlations'') over various time-steps. The resulting spatio-temporal pattern exhibits many non-classical features including Zeno-effects, violation of temporal Bell-inequalities, and quantum parallelism. Due to the strange web of correlations being built-up, specific measurement outcomes for the tape may refer to one or several preparation histories of the head. Specific families of correlation functions are more stable with respect to dissipation than the total wave-function.

Original abstract

We study a special inhomogeneous quantum network consisting of a ring of $M$ pseudo-spins (here $M = 4$) sequentially coupled to one and the same central spin under the influence of given pulse sequences (quantum gate operations). This architecture could be visualized as a quantum Turing machine with a cyclic ``tape''. Rather than input-output-relations we investigate the resulting process, i.e. the correlation between one- and two-point expectation values (``correlations'') over various time-steps. The resulting spatio-temporal pattern exhibits many non-classical features including Zeno-effects, violation of temporal Bell-inequalities, and quantum parallelism. Due to the strange web of correlations being built-up, specific measurement outcomes for the tape may refer to one or several preparation histories of the head. Specific families of correlation functions are more stable with respect to dissipation than the total wave-function.
