It is with great sadness to hear that Ray Laflamme passed away. He was a pioneer of theory of quantum error-correction. He helped me a lot when things are difficult at Perimeter.

@KalraAmolak @S_Flammia @enclanglement This is the relevant paragraph.

[Mark Howard @mark__howard]

@KalraAmolak @S_Flammia @enclanglement https://t.co/IIQkeiqefn reviving an old thread in light of this preprint. There's a comment in Sec 5 that the magic as measured by SRE is not maximized if one uses multiqubit WH group

[Mark Howard @mark__howard]

@KalraAmolak @S_Flammia @enclanglement 2. Easy to be led astray by examples in small dimensions. Very close connection between Wigner/Magic/SIC in dimension 3. Also Hoggar fiducial is maximally magic in dimension 8. The fact that WH grp is defined wrt ℤ_d in dimension d (except for d=8) makes comparisons strained too

Here at School of Physics @TCD_physics @tcddublin We are recruiting a tenure track assistant professor in theoretical quantum science to join our vibrant team. https://t.co/DGgJZRIURq - please get in touch with me if you need further details. Closing 8th of January!

New Win-Win episode out tomorrow morning with the quantum computing pioneer Scott Aaronson!

Here’s a teaser… don’t miss it!

@DulwichQuantum ....so....which qubits do I measure again?

Game-changer

[Craig Gidney @CraigGidney]

Been working on "Magic state cultivation: growing T states as cheap as CNOT gates" all year. It's finally out: https://t.co/VxQsZQJcDE

The reign of the T gate is coming to an end. It's now nearly the cost of a lattice surgery CNOT gate, and I bet there's more improvements yet.

[Ernesto Galvão @efgalvao]

Thanks for the pointer @HyperboIeva ! Apparently imaginary/negative amplitudes are responsible for this curious advantage, as discussed in the conclusion section.
