Adaptive Phase Measurements in Linear Optical Quantum Computation [PDF]
Photon counting induces an effective nonlinear optical phase shift on certain states derived by linear optics from single photons. Although this no nlinearity is nondeterministic, it is sufficient in principle to allow scalable linear optics quantum ...
