After a Quantum Clobbering, One Approach Survives Unscathed

Quantum computers get a lot of hype, but the truth is we’re still not sure what they’ll be good for. These devices leverage the peculiar physics of the subatomic world and have the potential to perform calculations that regular, classical computers simply can’t. But it’s proved difficult to find examples of any algorithms with a clear “quantum advantage” that enables performance beyond the reach…
