Just like any machine, quantum computers are prone to make errors. These errors can cause the qubits to lose their quantum states, leading to inaccurate computations. To address this problem, quantum ...

If you want to tile a bathroom floor, square tiles are the simplest option — they fit together without any gaps in a grid pattern that can continue indefinitely. That square grid has a property shared ...

Quantum computing may one day outperform classical machines in solving certain complex problems, but when and how this “quantum advantage” emerges has remained unclear. Now, researchers from Kyoto ...

Two-dimensional projection of a quantum spherical code composed of two copies (black and red) of the four complex dimensional Witting polytope. This code can correct up to five photon losses of any ...

Various methods are used to correct errors in quantum computers. Not all operations can be implemented equally well with different correction codes. Therefore, a research team has developed a method ...

The company said it is able to reduce error rates in its quantum computing capabilities by 1,000-fold thanks to four-dimensional geometric codes. Quantum Computing ...

Microsoft has unveiled Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum processor built using topological core architecture, an ...

Classical computing has operated as the fundamental power behind our digital world for many decades. Modern civilization relies on classical systems to operate smartphones and global financial ...

Lead author and PhD student Vassili Matsos looking at the Paul trap quantum computing device in the Quantum Control Laboratory at the University of Sydney. To build a large-scale quantum computer that ...

Value stream management involves people in the organization to examine workflows and other processes to ensure they are deriving the maximum value from their efforts while eliminating waste — of ...
