Quantum Finite Automata and Quiver Algebras (2203.07597v2)

Abstract: We find an application in quantum finite automata for the ideas and results of [JL21] and [JL22]. We reformulate quantum finite automata with multiple-time measurements using the algebraic notion of near-ring. This gives a unified understanding towards quantum computing and deep learning. When the near-ring comes from a quiver, we have a nice moduli space of computing machines with metric that can be optimized by gradient descent.
