Marzuoli, Annalisa; Rasetti, Mario
Computing spin networks. (English)
[J] Ann. Phys. 318, No. 2, 345-407 (2005). ISSN 0003-4916

The paper proposes a general setting for the quantum structure of quantum information. The framework is a non-Boolean generalization of the quantum circuit model based on a combinatorial approach to spin networks. After a careful description of computational Hilbert spaces, gates are defined as unitary transformations on these spaces. If the spin network quantum circuit is defined, one deals with semi-classical and SU(2) state sum models on the one hand, and spin network together with topological quantum computation, on the other hand.
