Events

Join Chris Wilson, faculty member at the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) and the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, in conversation with scientific outreach manager John Donohue. They’ll discuss his latest journal article entitled “Quantum Simulation of the Bosonic Creutz Ladder with a Parametric Cavity”, recently published in Physical Review Letters.

Non-commutative Nullstellensatz and Perfect Games
Adam Bene Watts, University of Waterloo

Quantum Physical Unclonable Functions and Their Comprehensive Cryptanalysis
Mina Doosti, University of Edinburgh

Yu Tong, University of California, Berkeley

In this talk I will introduce digital quantum algorithms for two quantum simulation tasks: ground state preparation/energy estimation, and real-time dynamical simulation of infinite-dimensional quantum systems. For the former I will introduce a black-box oracle setting that is suitable for quantum chemistry applications.

Meet graduate student researchers from science, engineering, and mathematics and hear how they discovered quantum information science, found their way into research, and how the skills they gained in their undergraduate studies are helping them develop the next generation of quantum technology.

Panelists

Quantum Information in Relativity: Measurements and Causality

Divide-and-conquer method for approximating output probabilities of constant-depth, geometrically-local quantum circuits
Nolan Coble, University of Maryland, College Park

Quantum Computational Particle Physics

Meet with experts who have taken their academic experience and found opportunities to bring quantum to market. As part of this panel, they will discuss their personal pathway into commercialization including challenges and lessons learned.

Optimal Theory Control Techniques for Nitrogen Vacancy Ensembles 

Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) Centers in diamond are a very versatile tool. A single Nitrogen Vacancy center is most notably known for sensing magnetic fields, but recently has presented itself as a functional node for a quantum internet, to name just two of its wide ranges of applications.
