Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Since the birth of the quantum theory as a framework to deal with the microscopic, their philosophical and mathematical nature has been a disruptive pathway that permeates on a lot of fields that appear to be disconnected. Nowadays, we recognize the mathematical methods and analytical facts of quantum mechanics as a set of rules, procedures, and understandings, thus helping us to solve problems regarding true quantum systems and analogues that seem to follow a similar nature and dynamical rules.

This Special Issue, entitled "Computation on Quantum Systems", is intended to be a collection of wide-range results which report on the use of mathematical procedures and methods which aim to unravel the evolution and interactions of quantum systems, as well as similar analogues.

The topics of which we expect works are regarded, but not limited to, solutions on dynamical equations; time-dependent and independent systems; operational approaches to quantum, classical, and hybrid systems; algebraic structures; group theoretical methods; and numerical analysis.

We hope you find this proposal as a correct and exciting place to share your work.

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.

Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Axioms is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly journal published by MDPI.

Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.

Following the celebrated postulates of quantum mechanics, we write the quantum mechanical wavefunction as a convergent series of suitably selected complete square-integrable basis functions in configuration space. The expansion coefficients of the series are energy orthogonal polynomials that contain all spectral information about the system. We exploit the properties of these polynomials to introduce physical systems with rich and highly nontrivial energy spectra. In this approach, no reference is made at all to the usual potential energy function. We consider, in this new approach, a few representative problems at the level of undergraduate students who took at least two courses in quantum mechanics and are familiar with the basics of orthogonal polynomials. Our aim is to expose students to quantum systems with rich energy spectra that goes beyond the very limited textbook examples of systems with very simple energy spectra (e.g., the harmonic oscillator, Coulomb, Morse, Pöschl–Teller, etc.) illustrating the physical significance of these energy polynomials in the description of a quantum system. To assist students, partial solutions are given in an appendix as tables and figures. Full article

The Polynomial Reconstruction Problem (PRP) was introduced in 1999 as a new hard problem in post-quantum cryptography. Augot and Finiasz were the first to design a cryptographic system based on a univariate PRP, which was published at Eurocrypt 2003 and was broken in 2004. In 2013, a bivariate PRP was proposed. The design is a modified version of Augot and Finiasz’s design. Our strategic method, comprising the modified Berlekamp–Welch algorithm and Coron strategies, allowed us to obtain certain secret parameters of the bivariate PRP. This finding resulted in us concluding that the bivariate PRP is not secure against Indistinguishable Chosen-Plaintext Attack (IND-CPA). Full article

In the article, we investigate entanglement dynamics defined by time-dependent linear generators. We consider multilevel quantum systems coupled to an environment that induces decoherence and dissipation, such that the relaxation rates depend on time. By applying the condition of partial commutativity, one can precisely describe the dynamics of selected subsystems. More specifically, we investigate the dynamics of entangled states. The concurrence is used to quantify the amount of two-qubit entanglement in the time domain. The framework appears to be an efficient tool for investigating quantum evolution of entangled states driven by time-local generators. In particular, non-Markovian effects can be included to observe the restoration of entanglement in time. Full article
