Abstract:
Spin dynamics simulations are used to gain insight into important magnetic resonance experiments in the fields of chemistry, biochemistry, and physics. Presented in this thesis are investigations into how to accelerate these simulations by making them more efficient. Chapter 1 gives a brief introduction to the methods of spin dynamics simulation used in the rest of the thesis. The `exponential scaling problem' that formally limits the size of spin system that can be simulated is described.

A simulação de cores corresponde à essência do processo de síntese de imagens realistas.

Por exemplo, enquanto o quartzo puro é transparente, a ametista é um tipo violeta de quartzo, cuja cor é determinada pela presença de traços de ferro. A quantidade de ferro define o matiz percebido.

In 2004 Robert W. Spekkens introduced a toy theory designed to make a case for the epistemic view of quantum mechanics. But how does Spekkens’ toy model differ from quantum theory?

More specifically, we provide experimentally viableprocedureswhichenablesustocompletelycharacterizethestatesandgatesthatare available in the toy model.

Here we challenge this view, demonstrating that Abelian anyon models have as much potential as some simple non-Abelian models. First the means to perform quantum computation with Abelian anyon models is considered. These models, like many non-Abelian models, cannot realize universal qu

Abstract:
The advent of quantum computing has challenged classical conceptions of which problems are efficiently solvable in our physical world. This raises the general question of what broad relationships exist between physical principles and computation. The current thesis explores this question within the operationally-defined framework of generalised probabilistic theories. In particular, we investigate the limits on computational power imposed by simple physical principles. At present, the best known upper bound on the power of quantum computers is that <b>BQP</b> is contained in <b>AWPP</b>, where
