The registration deadline of the main event of the year on quantum computing theory in practice (#QCTiP2025) will be #tomorrow, anywhere on Earth.
27 Feb 2025
At the wonderful #QIP2025 conference, I overheard many times that while QIP is great, it would be good to have a second QIP for more pragmatically and practically motivated problems in quantum tech. This does exist as QCTiP and will take place as #QCTiP2025 in #Berlin this year.

Can low-depth QAOA provide exponential quantum speedup over the best known classical heuristics on any optimization problems?
Yes! ✅ @quantumashley and I show this in our new paper:
arxiv.org/abs/2411.04979
which we did while I was a visiting fellow @PhasecraftLtd! (1/6)
