Quantum simulation and computation with near term quantum processors

by Prof. Dimitris Angelakis

→ Europe/Athens
Description
I will start with a general introduction on quantum simulation and computation with near term processors, the state of the art and the current race for building operational quantum processors. I will then review our work with Google on quantum simulations with superconducting qubits[1]. If time, I will briefly summarize recent works in the area of analog quantum supremacy and quantum phase transitions[2], quantum machine learning[3] and qubit efficient quadratic optimization algorithms on near term quantum processors [4]. The first part of the talk should be accessible to non-specialists
