Topic: Introduction to quantum chaos Speaker: Udaysinh T. Bhosale, Assistant Professor at Visvesvaraya National Institute of Technology Nagpur Abstract: In this session, first I will present the basics of classical, quantum chaos and random matrix theory. Then I will show how they are all connected with each. I will demonstrate these concepts using the examples of billiards and spin chains. Fin...

Topic: Quantum Arithmetic Part 2: an implementation and real-world use-case Speaker: Rajiv Krishnakumar, Quantum Computing Researcher at QuantumBasel Abstract: Quantum arithmetic is used to implement mathematical functions on a quantum computer. These functions are often subroutines in much larger end-to-end algorithms, such as Shor's algorithm. In part 1, Rajiv introduced the field of quantum ...

This World Quantum Day special of Q|Industry features a panel discussion with Rajiv Krishnakumar, Devika Sharma, Anuj Mehrotra, Achintya Paradkar, Kishor Bharti, and is moderated by Padmapriya Mohan. We discuss different qubit modalities, their pros and cons, recent developments in the hardware ecosystem, funding and investment, and the challenges associated with realising quantum computational...

Topic: Quantum solution to the thirty-six officers problem of Euler Speaker: Suhail Ahmad Rather, Postdoc at MPIPKS Dresden Germany Abstract: The 36 officers problem of Euler is a well-known impossible classical combinatorial puzzle. Its negative solution is due to the non-existence of combinatorial arrangements called orthogonal Latin squares that are akin to the popular game of Sudoku. I will...

Topic: Quantum Optimal Control in Quantum Technologies Speaker: Juhi Singh, PhD Researcher at Forschungszentrum Jülich Abstract: Efforts to scale up quantum computation have reached a point where the principal limiting factor is not the number of qubits, but the entangling gate infidelity. Quantum optimal control, a toolbox for devising and implementing the shapes of external fields that accomp...

Topic: Quantum Arithmetic Part 1: what is it and why is it important? Speaker: Rajiv Krishnakumar, Quantum Computing Researcher at Goldman Sachs Abstract: Quantum arithmetic is used to implement mathematical functions on a quantum computer. These functions are often subroutines in much larger end-to-end algorithms, such as Shor's algorithm. In this talk, Rajiv introduced the field of quantum ar...

Topic: Challenges and opportunities in the noisy intermediate scale quantum era Speaker: Kishor Bharti, Research Scientist Institute of High-Performance Computing (IHPC), Singapore Part-1 Discussion is available here: czcams.com/video/FkvWBh26U0M/video.html Session Date: January 29th, 2023

Topic: Challenges and opportunities in the noisy intermediate scale quantum era Speaker: Kishor Bharti, Research Scientist Institute of High-Performance Computing (IHPC), Singapore Abstract: A universal fault-tolerant quantum computer that can efficiently solve problems such as integer factorization and unstructured database search requires millions of qubits with low error rates and long coher...

Topic: Are circuits a useful abstraction for quantum computing? Speaker: Michał Stęchły, Zapata Computing Abstract: It seems we are at the stage, where using quantum circuits as a base abstraction for thinking about quantum algorithms seems to be not sufficient anymore. In this talk I’ll discuss my thoughts on the topic, some examples from my experience where I see issues with circuit model and...

Topic: A soft introduction to POVM with an application to VQE Speaker: Adam Glos, Researcher, Algorithmiq & Associate Professor, Polish Academy of Sciences. Abstract: Current quantum computers implement projective measurement in a computational basis, up to the effect of noise. However, such a measurement is not sufficient to quantify arbitrary properties of even pure quantum states. Such prope...

Topic: Are quantum computers good for optimization problems? Speaker: Kunal Marwaha, Doctoral Candidate, University of Chicago, U.S. Abstract: Although quantum computers are finally becoming a reality, we have yet to demonstrate a useful application on these machines. Some people think we can use them to solve optimization problems better than classical computers. I discuss the available eviden...
