1. A logical gate for a quantum computer, the logical gate comprising:
an input current source for injecting an input current into a first edge of a fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) fluid;
an output current source for removing an output current drained from a second edge of the FQHE fluid;
a first antidot defined by a first absence of FQHE fluid;
a second antidot defined by a second absence of FQHE fluid;
a voltage supply for adjusting an electrical potential confining the FQHE fluid to form a Polyakov loop between the antidots;
means for determining from the output current a quantum state of the Polyakov loop.
