Locality Weak or Strong Anticipation and Quantum Computing. II. Constructivism with Category Theory
p. 307-339
Abstract
The universal Turing machine is an anticipatory theory of computability by any digital or quantum machine. However the Church-Turing hypothesis only gives weak anticipation. The construction of the quantum computer (unlike classical computing) requires theory with strong anticipation. Category theory provides the necessary coordinate-free mathematical language which is both constructive and non-local to subsume the various interpretations of quantum theory in one pullback/pushout Dolittle diagram. This diagrame can be used to test and classify physical devices and proposed algorithms for weak or strong anticipation. Quantum Information Science is more than a merger of Church-Tirring and quantum theories. It has constructively to bridge the non-local chasm between the weak anticipation of mathematics and the strong anticipation of physics ,
