Hilbert spaces are fungible ADJECTIVE: 1. Law.Returnable or negotiable in kind or by substitution, as a quantity of grain for an equal amount of the same kind of grain. 2. Interchangeable. ETYMOLOGY: Medieval Latin fungibilis, from Latin fung (vice), to perform (in place of). Subsystem division 2 qubits; D = 4 Unary system D = 4
Example: Rydberg atom http://gomez.physics.lsa.umich.edu/~phil/qcomp.html
A Hilbert space is endowed with structure by the physical system described by it, not vice versa. The structure comes from preferred observables associated with spacetime symmetries that anchor Hilbert space to the external world. Hilbert-space dimension is determined by physics. The dimension available for a quantum computation is a physical quantity that costs physical resources. Key Question What physical resources are required to achieve a Hilbert-space dimension sufficient to carry out a given calculation? quant-ph/0204157 We don’t live in Hilbert space
Action quantifies the physical resources. Planck’s constant sets the scale. Hilbert space and physical resources Hilbert-space dimension is a physical quantity that costs physical resources. Single degree of freedom
Hilbert space and physical resources Primary resource is Hilbert-space dimension. Hilbert-space dimension costs physical resources. Many degrees of freedom Number of degrees of freedom Identical degrees of freedom Hilbert-space dimension measured in qubit units. Scalable resource requirement Strictly scalable resource requirement qudits

Other requirements for a scalable quantum computer Avoiding an exponential demand for physical resources requires a quantum computer to have a scalable tensor-product structure. This is a necessary, but not sufficient requirement for a scalable quantum computer. Are there other requirements? DiVincenzo’s criteria DiVincenzo, Fortschr. Phys. 48, 771 (2000) 1. Scalability:A scalable physical system with well characterized parts, usually qubits. 2. Initialization:The ability to initialize the system in a simple fiducial state. 3. Control: The ability to control the state of the computer using sequences of elementary universal gates. 4. Stability:Long decoherence times, together with the ability to suppress decoherence through error correction and fault-tolerant computation. 5. Measurement:The ability to read out the state of the computer in a convenient product basis.

Our scaling analysis applies, but with a basic phase-space scale ofarbitrarily small. Limit set by noise,not fundamental physics. The scale of irreducible resource requirements is always set by Planck’s constant.
