    Summary

    To address questions in modern physics such as “what is the structure of matter inside neutron stars?” we need better computational methods to evaluate the interplay of fundamental forces between elementary particles. To-date the response to such questions rests on numerical computer simulations that are inherently limited. In this project, we develop new theoretical tools for quantum simulations of non-Abelian problems in high energy physics (HEP), and HEP problems beyond one dimension. Our work is conducted in close collaboration with experimental groups to design robust and feasible simulation schemes that are custom-designed to particular quantum platforms. We will integrate methods from machine learning and artificial intelligence to create a conceptually new framework for hybrid quantum-classical simulations. These novel tools are expected to find useful applications beyond HEP in material science and chemistry. Through collaborations with Creative Destruction Lab and the Vector Institute we plan to accelerate the path to industry deployment.

    Extensible Technology for a Medium-Scale Superconducting Quantum Processor

    Summary   Superconducting quantum bits, or qubits, use circuits made from superconducting materials to harness quantum mechanical states. These devices contain many atoms, but can behave as simple, controllable qubits. We are building technologies for the control and measurement of superconducting qubits to enable the first demonstration of an extensible, medium-scale quantum processor. Our approach […]

    Materials for Majorana-based Topological Qubits

    Summary   Topological qubits offer a novel pathway to scalable quantum computing by simultaneously allowing for ease of coupling between qubits and strong decoupling of qubits from noise and dissipation. The most promising direction explores the topologically induced protection of theoretically predicted exotic quasiparticles, the so-called Majorana Zero Modes or MZMs. To-date MZMs, which follow […]

    Combined momentum- and real-space photoelectric probes of dimensionality-tuned Weyl semimetals

    Summary   The library of two-dimensional (2D) materials has recently grown to include topological insulators and semimetals. Their incorporation in special device geometries may lead to novel quantum electronics with enhanced functionalities. Weyl semimetals, in particular, offer the most robust form of topological protection. Recent results from our group indicate that Weyl nodes should be […]

    Building Blocks for Quantum Neuromorphic Computing: Superconducting Quantum Memcapacitors

    Quantum neuromorphic computing (QNC) is a novel method that combines quantum computing with brain-inspired neuromorphic computing. Neuromorphic computing performs computations using a complex ensemble of artificial neurons and synapses (i.e., electrical circuits) to emulate the human brain. QNC may lead to a quantum advantage by realizing these components with quantum memory elements, or memelements, which […]
