[Info.aoa-nano] Smalltalks "Understanding quantum advantage in continuous variable quantum computing"

[Nano]

SmallTalk [about Nanoscience]

On Monday October 28th at 15.00h we welcome you all to our SmallTalk seminar series. You are welcome to join us in lecture hall Kollektorn, MC2 with fika or on zoom.
Our speaker is Cameron Calcluth, Doctoral Student, Applied Quantum Physics, Microtechnology and Nanoscience. The seminar is titled "Understanding quantum advantage in continuous variable quantum computing"

Abstract:
Quantum computers are expected to be able to solve certain problems exponentially faster than classical computers. This ability is called quantum advantage. Understanding the properties that lead to quantum advantage is key to the development of new practical quantum algorithms. Earlier research in this field has focused on understanding quantum advantage using qubit-based (a two-level system) quantum computers. However, for continuous-variable quantum computers much less is known. To investigate this, we first developed a method to simulate a restricted class of continuous-variable computations. This lets us understand when these types of quantum computers cannot outperform classical computers. Using this result, we provide a sufficient condition for achieving quantum advantage using continuous variable quantum computing.

Looking forward to seeing you live or on Zoom:  https://chalmers.zoom.us/j/61929604403#success
Best regards,
Angela, Nils, Christoph, and Janine
