February

| Event Location: BRIM 311 | Speaker: Michael Foss-Feig (Quantinuum)

Related Upcoming Events:

Empirical evidence for a gap between the computational powers of classical and quantum computers has been provided by experiments that sample the output distributions of two-dimensional quantum circuits. Many attempts to close this gap have utilized classical simulations based on tensor network techniques, and their limitations shed light on the improvements to quantum hardware required to frustrate classical simulability.
