Algebraic Signal Processing Theory: Cooley-Tukey Type Algorithms for DCTs and DSTs
This paper presents a systematic methodology based on the algebraic theory of
signal processing to classify and derive fast algorithms for linear transforms.
Instead of manipulating the entries of transform matrices, our approach derives
the algorithms by stepwise decomposition of the associated signal models, or
polynomial algebras. This decomposition is based on two generic methods or
algebraic principles that generalize the well-known Cooley-Tukey FFT and make
the algorithms' derivations concise and transparent. Application to the 16
discrete cosine and sine transforms yields a large class of fast algorithms,
many of which have not been found before.Comment: 31 pages, more information at http://www.ece.cmu.edu/~smar
General-Purpose Parallel Simulator for Quantum Computing
With current technologies, it seems to be very difficult to implement quantum
computers with many qubits. It is therefore of importance to simulate quantum
algorithms and circuits on the existing computers. However, for a large-size
problem, the simulation often requires more computational power than is
available from sequential processing. Therefore, the simulation methods using
parallel processing are required.
We have developed a general-purpose simulator for quantum computing on the
parallel computer (Sun, Enterprise4500). It can deal with up-to 30 qubits. We
have performed Shor's factorization and Grover's database search by using the
simulator, and we analyzed robustness of the corresponding quantum circuits in
the presence of decoherence and operational errors. The corresponding results,
statistics and analyses are presented.Comment: 15 pages, 15 figure

Large Fourier transforms never exactly realized by braiding conformal blocks
Fourier transform is an essential ingredient in Shor's factoring algorithm.
In the standard quantum circuit model with the gate set \{\U(2),
\textrm{CNOT}\}, the discrete Fourier transforms , can be realized exactly by
quantum circuits of size , and so can the discrete
sine/cosine transforms. In topological quantum computing, the simplest
universal topological quantum computer is based on the Fibonacci
(2+1)-topological quantum field theory (TQFT), where the standard quantum
circuits are replaced by unitary transformations realized by braiding conformal
blocks. We report here that the large Fourier transforms and the discrete
sine/cosine transforms can never be realized exactly by braiding conformal
blocks for a fixed TQFT. It follows that approximation is unavoidable to
implement the Fourier transforms by braiding conformal blocks
Orthogonality Conditions for Non-Dyadic Wavelet Analysis
The conventional dyadic multiresolution analysis constructs a succession of frequency intervals in the form of ( π / 2 j , π / 2 j - 1 ); j = 1, 2, . . . , n of which the bandwidths are halved repeatedly in the descent from high frequencies to low frequencies. Whereas this scheme provides an excellent framework for encoding and transmitting signals with a high degree of data compression, it is less appropriate to the purposes of statistical data analysis. A non-dyadic mixed-radix wavelet analysis is described that allows the wave bands to be defined more flexibly than in the case of a conventional dyadic analysis. The wavelets that form the basis vectors for the wave bands are derived from the Fourier transforms of a variety of functions that specify the frequency responses of the filters corresponding to the sequences of wavelet coefficients.Wavelets, Non-dyadic analysis, Fourier analysis
