Interpretable Quantum Advantage in Neural Sequence Learning
Abstract: Quantum neural networks have been widely studied in recent years due to their potential practical utility and recent results showing their ability to efficiently express cert
Nonlinear effects in magnetic systems: from nano to macro scales
Abstract: Wave interactions are responsible for the various aspects of the behavior of different systems in nature, including processes in the oceans and atmosphere, star hydrodynamics, and even the evolution of the Universe. Spin waves (and their quanta–magnons) in magnetically ordered materials are highly nonlinear compared to, for example, phonons or photons in solids.
Adiabatic oracle for Grover Algorithm
Conventional quantum algorithms use certain resources that are assumed to be given at almost no cost but are hard to pro
Symplectic geometry and circuit quantization
Abstract: Circuit quantization is an extraordinarily successful theory that describes the behavior of quantum circuits with high precision.
Witnessing quantum entanglement in solid state systems with neutron scattering
Abstract: Quantum materials promise new states of matter and platforms for next-generation electronics, but in many cases no tractable theoretical models exist for their behavior. Compounding this difficulty is the fact that their key properties—quantum entanglement—have been historically very difficult to probe. In this talk I discuss recent work to use neutron spectroscopy to probe many-body entanglement between electron spins in real solid state materials.
