The quest for obtaining useful quantum advantage is uncomfortable if you want to get your hands dirty in the NISQ Era. But what if you had thousands of QPU hours, what would be the best way to write down a quantum optimization algorithm using 50 qubits that could beat QAOA? 🧵1/5

New paper by NASA, USRA and Google advancing quantum computing
Our new paper on characterization of qubit frequency noise is out and available at scirate.com/arxiv/2207.01740 we provide a generic framework to describe correlations for Gaussian and non-Gaussian noise.The theoretical results are supplemented with simulations confirming our findings

Great opportunity for grad students and researchers interested in using quantum computers for simulation of complex systems.
The SQMS/GGI Summer School will introduce students to concepts in quantum computation and quantum field theory through lectures and hands-on programming exercises. Applications are now open: ggi.infn.it/showevent.pl?id=…
