Insider Brief A top Google executive told CNBC the company is about five years away from quantum computers running practical applications beyond classical capabilities. Google’s Julian Kelly said early uses may include simulating advanced physics […]
Insider Brief The National Quantum Computing Centre (NQCC) has published its first Insights Paper exploring how quantum computing could transform healthcare and pharmaceuticals over the coming decades. The paper identifies over 40 proof-of-concept use cases, […]
Quantum computing architecture startup Iceberg Quantum has raised A$2 million AUD in pre-seed funding led by Blackbird Ventures and UK-based LocalGlobe. The announcement coincides with a new strategic collaboration with PsiQuantum to develop fault-tolerant architectures […]
Xanadu and Corning Incorporated have announced a strategic collaboration to co-develop customized low-loss optical fibre and fibre-array solutions for networking photonic quantum computing chips. The joint effort will leverage Xanadu’s expertise in ultra-low-loss photonic chip […]
Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light signals in fiber-optic communications networks and are frequently used for gas sensing and optical computing. Now, applied physicists […]
Classiq Technologies has announced a major milestone in financial quantum computing, achieving up to 95% quantum circuit compression in Monte Carlo simulation algorithms for credit portfolio risk management. The project was conducted in partnership with […]
Quantum 9, 1674 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-25-1674 We present a novel quantum high-dimensional linear regression algorithm with an $ell_1$-penalty based on the classical LARS (Least Angle Regression) pathwise algorithm. Similarly to available classical algorithms for Lasso, our […]
Quantum 9, 1673 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-25-1673 We propose a family of explicit geometrically local circuits on a 2-dimensional planar grid of qudits, realizing any abelian non-chiral topological phase as an actively error-corrected fault-tolerant memory. These circuits […]
What happens when a quantum physicist is frustrated by the limitations of quantum mechanics when trying to study densely packed atoms? At EPFL, you get a metamaterial, an engineered material that exhibits exotic properties. Click […]
Quantum 9, 1672 (2025). https://doi.org/10.22331/q-2025-03-25-1672 Multi-armed bandits are one of the theoretical pillars of reinforcement learning. Recently, the investigation of quantum algorithms for multi-armed bandit problems was started, and it was found that a quadratic […]
