IQC Student Seminar featuring Madelaine Liddy

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.

Quantum Days 2022

Quantum science and technology is rapidly accelerating globally and is strategically important to Canada. Canada has a strong, growing coast-to-caost quantum community spanning from academia to government laboratories and industry.ude talks by prominent speakers, panel discussion, and networking events enmabling Canadians to showcase excellence in their fields. This three-day event brings Canada's quantum community together to enable awareness and collaboration across the industry.

Speakers from the Institute for Quantum Computing include faculty members:

IQC-QuICS Math and Computer Science Seminar

Random quantum circuits transform local noise into global white noise

Alexander Dalzell, Caltech/AWS

We examine the distribution over measurement outcomes of noisy random quantum circuits in the low-fidelity regime. We will show that, for local noise that is sufficiently weak and unital, the output distribution p_noisy of typical circuits can be approximated by F*p_ideal + (1−F)*p_unif, where F is the probability that no local errors occur, p_ideal is the distribution that would arise if there were no errors, and p_unif is the uniform distribution.

Geometry of Banach spaces: a new route towards Position Based Cryptography

Aleksander Kubicki, University Complutense of Madrid

In this talk I will explain how some techniques coming from the local theory of Banach spaces can be used to obtain claims about the security of protocols for Position Based Cryptography.
