New #QLOC_INL#arXiv of PhD Student Filipa Peres!!!

Her prior work on #Pauli_Based_Quantum_Computation (PBC) on hybrid computation https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.01789, together with Ernesto Galvão, improved the cost of compilation and #hybrid_computation using PBC (with open source code for it!).

PBC so far used only qubit encoding, but #error_correction or photonic computation that encode information on #qudits are of great relevance. In her new work, she generalizes PBC to qudits! https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.13702

The PhD student José Diogo Guimarães, in a joint work with collaborators from #UniversityUlm and #UniversityMinho, explained novel results on simulating open quantum sistems with NISQ devices by applying error mitigation in order to have control over the effect Lindblad evolution of the quantum computer.

Super awesome results. Congratulations José for these advancements!

A new paper from my research group at #INL on #BosonSampling!!

New #QLOC_INL publication! Joint work by my supervisor Ernesto Galvão with Fabio Sciarrino, Nicolò Spagnolo (Rome) and Daniel Brod (UFF).

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41534-023-00676-x

Here they explore how to simulate non-linear photonic gates using linear optics, as a way to gauge the associated complexity. In particular, they look at simulations of non-linear phase gates, and how the complexity is affected by the density of photons in the device.

#BosonSampling is a problem that has hardness of classical simulation well established, but that quantum systems can do absurdly fast

One major difficulty is that this sampling task is not easy to be verified, hence not clear how to benchmark #QuantumAdvantage BosonSampling experiments

In a new preprint from #QLOC_INL Leonardo Novo, together with Benoît Seron (main author), A Arkhipov and N Cerf advance the field of Boson Sampling validation!

Congrats to Benoît et al!

New #QLOC_INL preprint out!! https://scirate.com/arxiv/2212.03668!!!!!

PhD Student Michael together with PI's Ernesto Galvão and Luis Barbosa study quantum advantages in a restricted version of MQBC (non-adaptive) when computing Boolean functions!

This is one result among others that push us to better understand the connections/differences between adaptive/non-adaptive quantum computation.
