  3. 3. Introduction to Quantum Annealing
    Dr Madita Willsch
    8/26/24, 12:30 PM

    This talk is a general introduction to quantum annealing. It covers:
    - how does a quantum annealer work in theory and what can it be used for;
    - what are the theoretical and practical limitations;
    - how to solve problems on quantum annealers, in particular D-Wave quantum annealers as the one hosted by JSC;
    - the basic information about the architecture of D-Wave quantum annealers;
    - how...

    Dr Jaka Vodeb
    8/28/24, 10:00 AM

    I will talk about the first experimental signatures of two-dimensional many-body false vacuum decay in a quantum material emerging from microscopic interactions. We used a programmable noisy superconducting quantum simulator with 2008 qubits in order to perform simulations corresponding to our specific experiment on quantum domain reconfiguration in a topical electronic crystal. We carefully...

  15. 15. Simulating Noise of Quantum Computers
    Dr Kevissen Sellapillay
    8/28/24, 1:00 PM

    As much as we want to isolate them, we must see quantum machines as open systems. Interactions happen between the quantum machine and its environment leading to decoherence. This effectively give different types of noise at the level of the machine. What are they and how can we take them into account when doing simulation on our classical computer?
