An Holistic Extension for Classical Logic via Quantum Fredkin Gate

Entropy (Basel). 2021 Sep 7;23(9):1178. doi: 10.3390/e23091178.

Abstract

An holistic extension for classical propositional logic is introduced in the framework of quantum computation with mixed states. The mentioned extension is obtained by applying the quantum Fredkin gate to non-factorizable bipartite states. In particular, an extended notion of classical contradiction is studied in this holistic framework.

Keywords: Fredkin quantum gate; bipartite quantum systems; fuzzy logic.
