Mathematicians and computer scientists had an exciting year of breakthroughs in set theory, topology and artificial intelligence, in addition to preserving fading knowledge and revisiting old questions. They made new progress on fundamental questions in […]
The change between singlet and triplet states of electron pairs in charge-separated states plays an important role in nature. Presumably, the compass of migratory birds can also be explained by the influence of the earth’s […]
Created as an analogy for Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) — which describes the interactions due to the electromagnetic force carried by photons — Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) is the theory of physics that explains the interactions mediated by the strong force — one […]
Quantum 5, 611 (2021). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2021-12-23-611 The indistinguishability of quantum particles is widely used as a resource for the generation of entanglement. Linear quantum networks (LQNs), in which identical particles linearly evolve to arrive at multimode […]
DEAR EDITOR: I am a graduate student. Some of my little friends in the theoretical physics department say there is no quantum computer. Papa says, ‘If you see it in THE QUANTUM INSIDER it’s so.’ […]
Applications are invited for the above post based in the School of Physics & Astronomy at the University of Nottingham. The successful candidate will carry out experimental research and technological development of quantum sensors. Postdoc […]
Quantum 5, 610 (2021). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2021-12-23-610 Coherent driving has established itself as a powerful tool for guiding a many-body quantum system into a desirable, coherent non-equilibrium state. A thermodynamically large system will, however, almost always saturate […]
Quantum 5, 609 (2021). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2021-12-23-609 The efficient preparation of input distributions is an important problem in obtaining quantum advantage in a wide range of domains. We propose a novel quantum algorithm for the efficient preparation […]
The ILLC and Informatics Institute at the University of Amsterdam are seeking to significantly strengthen their profiles in the area of Theoretical Computer Science, and we currently are inviting applications for three faculty positions in […]
Quantum 5, 608 (2021). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2021-12-23-608 We study the problem of transmitting classical information using quantum Gaussian states on a family of phase-noise channels with a finite decoherence time, such that the phase-reference is lost after […]
