Center for
Quantum-Enabled Computing
The Center for Quantum-Enabled Computing (C4QEC) aims to pave the way toward verified, energy-efficient, reliable, and scalable computational advantage based on quantum systems
Scope and objectives:
Creating a set of efficient and effective certification methods suitable for testing quantum devices composed of tens to hundreds of interacting components, implemented in real physical platforms such as superconducting qubits, Rydberg atoms, trapped ions, or photonic systems
Exploiting quantum light-matter coupling, present, for example, in semiconductor polariton systems, to achieve acceleration and reduced energy consumption in machine learning and artificial intelligence applications
Developing a set of randomized methods that, by implementing randomly selected operations for complex computations, will increase the computational power of quantum processors without requiring significant hardware modifications
Developing experimental protocols dedicated to neutral atoms for use in quantum simulators, including calculations in fermionic systems
Development of algorithms offering potential quantum speedup for practical problems (e.g., in quantum chemistry) whose complexity will be supported by rigorous complexity theory
