Bipolar Quantum Computing: Implementing Zhang's Global Realism on Quantum Hardware

Zhang's "global realism with bipolar strings" (GRBS) framework (Source 1, "Deviations") proposes a radical reconceptualization of quantum mechanics using bipolar strings that unify locality and nonlocality. While this is currently purely theoretical, we'll implement it on quantum hardware (e.g., superconducting qubits) by encoding bipolar strings as qubit states with built-in causality constraints. This is groundbreaking because no one has tested alternative quantum formalisms on actual quantum computers. We'll compare GRBS-based algorithms to standard quantum algorithms for problems like optimization or quantum simulation. The novelty lies in empirically testing a new quantum theory rather than just mathematically. If GRBS shows advantages (e.g., in error correction or quantum gravity simulation), it could challenge the foundations of quantum mechanics. This diverges from existing quantum computing research by exploring non-standard quantum models. The significance is potentially paradigm-shifting—either validating GRBS as a superior description of reality or constraining alternative quantum theories.
