Insider Brief Brookhaven National Laboratory researchers are conducting quantum computing simulations on the Perlmutter supercomputer. The experiments are powered by PennyLane, an open-source quantum programming framework developed by Xanadu, in collaboration with the NVIDIA cuQuantum […]
Quantum 7, 1113 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-14-1113 Although tensor networks are powerful tools for simulating low-dimensional quantum physics, tensor network algorithms are very computationally costly in higher spatial dimensions. We introduce $textit{quantum gauge networks}$: a different kind […]
Quantum 7, 1112 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-14-1112 A recent paper by two of us and co-workers [1], based on an extended Wigner’s friend scenario, demonstrated that certain empirical correlations predicted by quantum theory (QT) violate inequalities derived […]
Job type: Postdoc Place: M-Qudit lab, SKKU (Sungkyunkwan University), Suwon, Korea Appointment: 1 year (extendable) Starting date: Negotiable Task: Developing quantum algorithms for molecular or spin quantum dynamics Requirements: Any disciplines (e.g., physics, chemistry, mathematics, […]
Understanding the quantum universe is not an easy thing. Intuitive notions of space and time break down in the tiny realm of subatomic physics, allowing for behavior that seems, to our macro sensibilities, downright weird. […]
Quantum 7, 1111 (2023). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2023-09-14-1111 Challenging combinatorial optimization problems are ubiquitous in science and engineering. Several quantum methods for optimization have recently been developed, in different settings including both exact and approximate solvers. Addressing this […]
