Optical holonomic quantum computer

Abstract
In this paper the idea of holonomic quantum computation is realized within quantum optics. In a nonlinear Kerr medium the degenerate states of laser beams are interpreted as qubits. Displacing devices, squeezing devices, and interferometers provide the classical control parameter space where the adiabatic loops are performed. This results in logical gates acting on the states of the combined degenerate subspaces of the lasers, producing any one qubit rotations and interactions between any two qubits. Issues such as universality, complexity, scalability, and reversibility are addressed and several steps are taken towards the physical implementation of this model.
