Description
Quantum Mechanics and classical optics feature similar phenomena such as superposition, interference and even entanglement. Because of the analogy, techniques from optics can be used in quantum mechanics and vice versa. In this talk, I want to address two questions. 1) What can we learn from formulating optics using the Dirac formalism? Is it possible to implement quantum algorithms by means of classical optics?
