QIP = PSPACE

IQC researchers resolve a longstanding open question about quantum complexity theory.

Postdoctoral fellow, Dr. Jay Gambetta of the Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) and a team of physicists from Yale University recently created a two-qubit superconducting quantum processor, ground-breaking research to be published in Nature next month.
"A quantum processor executes algorithms by applying a programmable sequence of gates to an initialized register of qubits, which coherently evolves into a final state containing the result of the computation," explains Gambetta.

The Institute for Quantum Computing's (IQC) postdoctoral fellow, Jay Gambetta was recently accepted into the Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR) Junior Fellow Academy in the Quantum Information Processing program. As a Junior Fellow, Jay will receive the rare opportunity to collaborate with some of the top researchers in his field and be able to connect and exchange ideas with peers throughout the program and receive valuable career mentorship along the way.

Now accepting applications

The Institute for Quantum Computing (IQC) at the University of Waterloo invites applicants for a Canada Excellence Research Chair (CERC).
