Abstract
Quantum computation may well be performed with the use of electric circuits. Especially, the Schr\"{o}dinger equation can be simulated by the lumped-element model of transmission lines, which is applicable to low-frequency electric circuits. In this paper, we show that the Dirac equation is simulated by the distributed-element model, which is applicable to high-frequency electric circuits. Then, a set of universal quantum gates (the Hadamard, phase-shift and CNOT gates) are constructed by networks made of transmission lines. We demonstrate Shor's prime factorization based on electric circuits. It will be possible to simulate any quantum algorithms simply by designing networks of metallic wires.
