Abstract :
We describe an extension of the cluster-state model for universal quantum computation from qubits to qumodes (quantized harmonic oscillators), i.e., a translation from discrete to continuous quantum variables, and discuss potential optical realizations via approximate cluster states in form of multi-mode squeezed Gaussian states.
