Working on the classical-quantum Avalon programming language.

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

Thanks @wjzeng for running the https://t.co/235ex3VDnS grant, helping push quantum computing forward.

[Will Zeng @wjzeng]

Congratulations to @nbashige for his https://t.co/FG3fC3RRet grant to develop the Avalon quantum programming language & support quantum programming communities in India and D. R. Congo! It's exciting for quantum to be accessible to the global community https://t.co/UjD3r8CjD4

We are very happy to introduce orqviz: An open-source Python library to flexibly visualize high-dimensional landscapes of Variational Quantum Algorithms.

Check out this thread for applications we explore in the paper. 1/6

@albaclierta @mstechly Sorry for the typo it's Arfken & Weber. For something introductory, I don't know, though in general, having something as condensed as the above reference with lecture notes freely available through the net was not a bad idea 😉
Good luck!

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

@mstechly @albaclierta From a physicist's perspective, Arkfen & Weber was good though it needed complementing with other resources and attempting exercises.

My new article on how to do a QC project.
- What you need to know
- Step-by-step process
- Ideas for projects

I hope you will find it useful :)

Congratulations to Adam @adamisntdead for his excellent work on high-performance quantum simulation resulting in being granted the #unitaryfund!

[Will Zeng @wjzeng]

His proposal will be to extend his high performance QCGPU library for simulating quantum circuits (https://t.co/E9ilsbidic) using MPI. Congratulations @adamisntdead!

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

Interesting article on what to watch for in 2019. The year is starting good!

@michael_nielsen A question: interface between what? The question seems a bit vague, if I may be so bold. Interface between classical and quantum programs? Interface between quantum programs? All the way to software APIs for (quantum) hardware access?

[Michael Nielsen @michael_nielsen]

Interest in quantum computing is often justified by faster-than-classical quantum algorithms. But in classical computing, algorithms are just a small part of the picture. Interfaces are (at least) as important, for instance. What would a better-than-classical-interface look like?

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

@Ray_O_Johnson It appears that it is easier to stop people from doing something than it is to make them do the same. And they are not helping my shaming women who choose to delay marriage as being leftovers. And from what I read, childcare isn't exactly affordable either.

[Vincent Chu (褚邦平) @vincentchu]

I’m always amazed at how much you learn just by going through the motions of calculations and re-writing everything. The simple act of writing, even if it feels like copying, forces you to mull over everything, and the kinesthesia of it reinforces memory and understanding.

[Will Zeng @wjzeng]

Quantum Quest is a very cool new web class for high school students from @michael_quantum & @enclanglement @QuSoftAmsterdam. Great to see the barriers to entry in our field getting lower and lower

@soorajp_17 Thanks for attending! Hope you continue learning. Cheers.

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

If you are in Bangalore, India; we have a quantum computing meetup coming up this Saturday 22nd in Old Airport road. Will introduce the basics and main concepts including core algorithms. The event page lives at https://t.co/hxLl9Y7aIt.
Hope to see you there!

@nick_farina The death curve will be steep and long unless there is an ecosystem of hardware and software to work on industry problems and use cases feverishly. The US national academy report on quantum computing makes a compelling case for fostering this ecosystem now.

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

@SCodeville @SlideShare Was looking forward to it, thanks for sharing.

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

Thank you @nick_farina. I'm also looking forward to see what we can all do together as a community in quantum programming.

[nick farina @nick_farina]

hey! congrats @nbashige, looking forward to seeing your work, and great to see support from https://t.co/DsiABquGUm on important vision!

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

@A_Aspuru_Guzik Anyway to get the slides on the net?

[Tom Wong @thomasgwong]

New preprint by @preskill summarizes work he's done with Stephen Jordan, Hari Krovi, and Keith Lee on simulating quantum field theory with a quantum computer. https://t.co/GjEU3lGw6F

[Ntwali B. Toussaint @nbashige]

@replit @amasad Thanks. Following so I get notified when this happens. Keep up the good work!
