Quantum coding with low-depth random circuits
Michael Gullans, University of Maryland - College Park
Lower Bounds on Stabilizer Rank
Dr. Ben Lee Volk, The University of Texas at Austin
The stabilizer rank of a quantum state ψ is the minimal integer r such that ψ can be written as a linear combination of r stabilizer states. The running time of several classical simulation methods for quantum circuits is determined by the stabilizer rank of the n-th tensor power of single-qubit magic states.
Linear growth of quantum circuit complexity
Jonas Haferkamp, Freie Universität Berlin
Security analysis of quantum key distribution: Methods and applications
Join Twesh Upadhyaya, MSc student at the University of Waterloo’s Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) and Department of Physics & Astronomy, in conversation with scientific outreach manager John Donohue. They’ll discuss his latest journal article entitled “Dimension Reductions in Quantum Key Distribution for Continuous- and Discrete-Variable Protocols” published in Physical Review X Quantum on May 24.
Trapdoor claw-free functions in quantum cryptography
Carl Miller, University of Maryland
How to perform the coherent measurement of a curved phase space
Dr. Christopher Sahadev Jackson, Sandia National Laboratories
We're teaming up with the Kitchener Public Library for a free, virtual talk on the book titled "Where did the universe come from?". The co-authors, Chris and Geraint, will talk about the fascinating exploration of the vastness of the universe.
Bounding quantum capacities via partial orders and complementarity
Christoph Hirche, Technische Universität München and National University of Singapore
