Abstract:
We describe how entangled quantum states can aid in coordination, cooperation and resource allocation in multi-agent systems. These protocols provide alternatives to conventional methods, with different trade-offs of capabilities and information privacy. We also present results of human-subject experiments with simulated versions of some of these methods, showing people can learn to use entangled states effectively without training in quantum mechanics. Thus these quantum protocols are suitable for mixed systems consisting of human and software agents. These techniques are beneficial with even a few bits and operations, making their physical implementation much easier than quantum applications to hard computational problems such as factoring or search.
