Discover the Quantum Revolution

Quantum game theory introduces fascinating scenarios known as pseudo-telepathy games, where two players can achieve higher success probabilities by using the laws of quantum mechanics rather than classical physics. More precisely, there exist games with a Perfect Quantum Strategy (PQS), strategies that guarantee a 100% success rate using quantum resources, even though no classical strategy can win with certainty. These quantum games are not just clever thought experiments: they serve as deep tests of quantum properties such as entanglement and contextuality, and they touch on some of the most profound questions in modern physics. Today, thanks to quantum computers, we can actually play such games from our laptops.

As a part of ColibriTD’s QUICK (Quantum Innovative Computing Kit) platform, H-DES (a Quantum-Classical Hybrid Differential Equation Solver) is now available as an IBM Qiskit Function named QUICK-PDE, and enables developers, simulation engineers, and researchers to tackle multiphysics partial differential equations (PDEs) using IBM’s quantum computers, over the cloud, and paves the way for real-world applications and industrial simulation.

Why not just super qubits?

Despite many efforts, the quantum industry is still heavily male-dominated - and the quantum revolution is in desperate need of diversity.

of quadratically faster simulations.

Why quantum machine learning?

In this article I will pose the basis to understand how superconductivity can be used to built quantum bits.

Alright, fine! Sometimes adding “quantum” to something does make it better— that is the case of quantum sensors.

Grover’s algorithm is a quantum search algorithm that has been widely studied since its discovery in 1996. It offers a quadratic speedup over classical search algorithms, making it an important tool in the field of quantum computing.

Are you terrified of being asked about the fundamentals of quantum mechanics while making small talk in the elevator? If yes, this article is made for you. Well, at least the first part of it.

From the (non-)paradox to the cat qubits.

Ultracold atoms in optical lattices are a great tool to simulate quantum matter. These experimental platforms provide unprecedented control over a sizable number of atoms and are thus a crucial instrument for exploring quantum information processing at various scales. What are optical lattices exactly and how can we use them for quantum information?

It is hard to overstate how interesting photons are. Their mix of quantum properties and relativistic nature has motivated a complete overhaul of our understanding of the universe in the last century.

In this medium article, we propose to explore two quantum games, their principles, and the classical strategies associated and to have a closer look at how moving to the quantum setup can impact the performance of the players.

Ion traps use one of the best candidates for qubits: nuclear spins (in fact, a combination of electronic and nuclear spins, also called hyperfine structure).

Joseph Fourier (1768 –1830) is a french mathematician and physicist. He is known for having determined, by calculus, the heat diffusion by using the decomposition of an arbitrary function thanks to his famous Fourier series.

We are living in the exciting era of the first available quantum computers, complex devices which aim at tackling problems by playing by the rules of quantum mechanics. Although still imperfect (too small, too noisy, too error-prone…) they are the result of years and years of research and of the great effort of scientists all over the world, so instead of focusing on what they cannot do, let’s see what they CAN do!

Quantum Entanglement … what a mysterious phenomenon. It happens at the subatomic scale and has no equivalent in the macroscopic world.

When Google claimed quantum supremacy with its 53-qubit quantum processing unit [1], IBM challenged it claiming that “[quantum supremacy] has not been met” [2].
