A PhD for Ivan Chernyshev !
Congratulations to Ivan Chernyshev who graduated with his PhD from IQuS, with a thesis entitled Developing techniques for Simulation of SU(3) Quantum Field Theories on State-of-the-Art Quantum Devices e-Print: 2502.02502 [quant-ph]. Ivan joined our effort at the earliest stages of developing quantum simulations of fundamental systems, including non-Abelian lattice gauge theories, and investigations into the quantum complexity […]

Winter School on AMO
FEBRUARY 18 – 24, 2024 The field of quantum thermodynamics sits at the intersection of old-style thermodynamics and quantum information. Powerful realizable concepts on non-equilibrium many-body quantum thermodynamics are challenging the established thinking on ergodicity and thermalization. This school will give pedagogical as well as state-of-the-art introduction to such ideas.

Status of 100+ Qubit Quantum Simulations
The status of cutting edge quantum simulations was discussed in IBM’s qiskit panel discussion on 27 October 2023. The panel included IQuS’s Roland Farrell .

IBM Panel Discussion: Simulations using more than 100 qubits:
October 27, 2023 Roland Farrell will be 1 of 4 panelists with Jay Gambetta discussing the new era of quantum simulations with more than 100 qubits. Watch the panel discussion live on youtube
