Popis: Quantum computational logics are special examples of quantum logic where formulas are supposed to denote pieces of quantum information (qubit-systems or mixtures of qubit-systems), while logical connectives are interpreted as reversible quantum logical gates. Hence, any formula of the quantum computational language represents a synthetic logical description of a quantum circuit. We investigate a many-valued approach to quantum information, where the basic notion of qubit has been replaced by the more general notion of qudit. The qudit-semantics allows us to represent as reversible gates some basic logical operations of Łukasiewicz many-valued logics. In the final part of the article we discuss some problems that concern possible implementations of gates by means of optical devices.
