What we lack is a genuinely quantum model of
computation that could be mathematically tractable as the Turing or Post
models and can account for entanglement in all its glory.

As far as I know you can describe certain classes of entanglement
by means of Borromean rings, which are beautiful and sometimes
also unpredictable. That is not much indeed, just something!

Brunniam links are also interesting in connection with QM and QC.

Happy N.Y. (which is already coming, here in Rome)
