Quantum-like information processing using vector solitons

The concept of simulating the quantum logic via collisions of vector solitons (Janutka 2006 J. Phys. A: Math. Gen. 39 12505, 2007 J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 40 10813) is developed in the direction of designing a true quantum-information processor that is based on mesoscopic objects, solitons. In this concept, quantum-like information is encoded in the vector-soliton (polarization) parameters. An exponential increase of the logical-operating speed compared to that achievable in the earlier simulation schemes is found to be possible due to a coherent conversion of a 2n-component vector soliton that carries an n-cebit of information into an ensemble of 2n-1 two-component and 2n-2 four-component vector pulses. Two solid-state circuits (transmitting magnetic solitons or fluxons of long Josephson junctions) which enable such a pulse conversion are proposed
