    A problem of universality in simulation of evolution of quantum system and in theory of quantum computations is related with the possibility of expression or approximation of arbitrary unitary transformation by composition of specific unitary transformations (quantum gates) from given set. In an earlier paper (quant-ph/0010071) application of Clifford algebras to constructions of universal sets of binary quantum gates Uk∈U(2n)U_k \in U(2^n) was shown. For application of a similar approach to non-binary quantum gates Uk∈U(ln)U_k \in U(l^n) in present work is used rational noncommutative torus T1/l2n{\Bbb T}^{2n}_{1/l}. A set of universal non-binary two-gates is presented here as one example.Comment: 5 pages, REVTeX3.1, v2: spelling and misprints, 4 new ref
