To simulate quantum systems on classical or quantum computers, the continuous observables (e.g., coordinate and momentum or energy and time) must be reduced to discrete ones. In this paper, we consider the continuous observables represented in the positional systems as power series in the radix multiplied over the summands (“digits”), which turn out to be Hermitian operators with discrete spectrum. We investigate the obtained quantum mechanical operators of digits, the commutation relations between them, and the effects of the choice of a numeral system on lattices and representations. Renormalizations of diverging sums naturally occur in constructing the digital representation.
Keywords: quantum computing, qudit, digital expansion, renormalization.
