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

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.
A direct product theorem for quantum communication complexity with applications to device-independent QKD
