Soon, a new research initiative on #QuantumComputing #software will start in #Germany: The #SPP2514 "Quantum Software, Algorithms and Systems" by @dfg_public.

Today, we had an initial round-table discussion about it at @TU_Muenchen. Many thanks for the great exchange!🙂

Happy to be selected for a @MunichQuantum -Lighthouse project. With KID-QC^2 we're aiming to further automatize circuit construction for electronic structure by teaming up with the @FraunhoferIIS (group of Daniel Scherer). Great to have students that take care of social media :-)

[QLabAux @QLabAux]

Sharing insights from our recent KickOff Meeting for the MVQ-Lighthouse project last Wednesday with the group of Daniel Scherer at the Fraunhofer IIS @FraunhoferIIS and the Munich Quantum Valley @MunichQuantum !
Swipe to see highlights 🌟

My recent work on disordered quantum systems and many-body localization (MBL). This short article is filled with new perspectives.
Anyone working on #QuantumComputing should learn about MBL, which defers quantum decoherence.

It might be easy to develop a variational (quantum) algorithm. The art is developing an algorithm that works and improves on previous results.

I find these QIP-minded discussions very hard to digest and completely disconnected from real-world problems in computational science.

Variational methods are the most accurate
(and oldest) existing approaches to solving actual quantum many-body problems. The idea that since they are easy to understand and replicate, then people should not work on them is just crazy from a computational physics/chemistry perspective.

Should we all work on QPE from now on because it's a more elaborate quantum algorithm?

But then, who will provide an initial ansatz for QPE if we cannot use variational methods? Please, somebody tell me!

Announcing the first calculation of molecular electron densities by #QuantumComputing! We additionally suggest a future-proof approach for experimental validation of QC-based calculation of #chemistry. @wacqt_sweden @OpenSuperQPlus @ChemicalScience https://t.co/l1hPxjb4mP

Can VQAs with barren plateaus still be trainable? Just in time for last week’s paper connecting the absence of BPs and classical simulability, our work on synergistic pretraining of quantum circuits via tensor networks was just published in @NatureComms!

With @AmaraKataba, A.Caesura and P.Johnson, we incorporated hardware, algorithmic and fault-toletant advances to validate that the regime between NISQ and FTQC, referred to as early fault-tolerant quantum computing (EFTQC), will exist in a meaningful way! https://t.co/sMVMVi2HYH

Highly efficient AI-discovery of 100 (!) new (!) quantum experiments (state gen, transformations, q.comm, cond.matter.phys) just published in @quantumjournal

Congratulations to @cruizgo_ @soerenarlt & whole team!

My first foray into promotional videos was a blast thanks to the expert guidance of Julia from the @ICBPETH. Enjoy my Swedish accent, and come to my inaugural lecture. It will be streamed online as well: https://t.co/ZDTxCKhlYt

[Robert Wille @rbrtwll]

The Munich Quantum Software Forum (#MQSF) is in the books! Together we showed that there is an active and exciting #QuantumComputing software community--and not even a small one!😉

@carrasqu @ETH_physics Congrats Juan!

[Juan Felipe Carrasquilla Álvarez @carrasqu]

I have been appointed an associate professor of computational physics at @ETH_physics. I'll have PhD and postdoc positions, so get in touch if you are interested in quantum many-body physics, ML, condensed matter, or quantum info/computing

[Giuseppe Carleo @gppcarleo]

It's time for another brand new @NetKetOrg tutorial!

This week, thanks to @pgabbo0 of @cqs_lab @EPFL, we explore bosonic systems in continuous space: first, a 3D harmonic oscillator and then 1D confided particles with Gaussian interactions, using a DeepSet NQS https://t.co/cVDckHa6k0
