The local Hamiltonian problem is one of the most fundamental problems in quantum computing. It is a natural generalization of classical constraint satisfaction problems to the quantum regime, and it is the canonical QMA-complete problem. In addition, it arises naturally in the study of many-body physics. Given an instance of the local Hamiltonian problem, the object is to find its ground state or the energy of this state.
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

In cavity quantum electrodynamics (cavity QED) systems, the realization of strong coupling between light and atoms plays a critical role in the study of quantum optics and entanglement. At the same time, Rydberg atom arrays provide a promising platform for exploring quantum many-body physics. However, with the Rydberg-mediated interactions, atoms mainly interact locally. Coupling Rydberg arrays to a cavity opens up new research directions in quantum many-body physics with long-range interactions, creating a fully connected quantum network.
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:
Conformal symmetry of fields near the event horizon of the black hole plays a significant role in determining the temperature of the black hole radiation. In this talk, we show how the near-horizon (NH) conformal symmetry provides a microscopic theory for the area-entropy relation for any static or stationary black hole. To do that, we map the NH behavior of the field modes to the scale-invariant Hamiltonian of conformal quantum mechanics (CQM).
