    Seminar | Josu Etxezarreta

    Title: Advances in low-overhead quantum error correction Abstract: The extremely fragile nature of quantum information implies that quantum error correction (QEC) techniques are going to be necessary to obtain the full benefits that quantum computing offers theoretically. While QEC has been experimentally proven to be effective, it requires significant overheads that should be alleviated. In…

    Speaker: Jakub Mrożek Title: Calibrating a 99.9% Fidelity CZ Gate on a Superconducting Quantum Processor Abstract: As superconducting Quantum Processing Units (QPU) grow larger, automated and reliable calibration of high-fidelity two-qubit remains one of the main challenges. We introduce a novel gate error characterization method, which we call the Phase-Averaged Leakage Error Amplification (PALEA) protocol, building…

    Seminar | Hsin-Yuan Huang (Robert)

    Speaker: Hsin-Yuan Huang (Robert) Title: Generative quantum advantage for classical and quantum problems Abstract: Recent breakthroughs in generative machine learning, powered by massive computational resources, have demonstrated unprecedented human-like capabilities. While beyond-classical quantum experiments have generated samples from classically intractable distributions, their complexity has thwarted all efforts in efficient learning. This challenge has hindered demonstrations of generative quantum…

    Seminar | Carlos Ramos Marimón

    Speaker: Carlos Ramos Marimón Title: Off-diagonal Pauli Weight truncation and equilibration temperature dependence for simulating local dynamics in quantum systems Abstract: The complexity of simulating the out-of-equilibrium evolution of local operators in the Heisenberg picture is governed by the operator entanglement, which grows linearly in time for generic nonintegrable systems, leading to an exponential increase…
