SESSION 3: Measurement-based quantum computationChair: (Rafael Alexander) | |
| 1:30pm - 2:15pm | Mercedes Gimeno-Segovia, PsiQuantum Corp. (invited) Photonic quantum computing | Abstract. Photons make great qubits, they are cheap to produce, resilient to noise and the only known option for quantum communication. The two main traditional arguments against a fully linear-optical quantum computing architecture have been the lack of deterministic photonic entangling gates and the predisposition of photons to loss. However, a number of theoretical breakthroughs have made these arguments loose strength, while implementations in silicon photonics have opened the door to manufacturability at large scale. In this talk, I will describe an architecture for fault tolerant quantum computing based on linear optics, in the process I will explain how measurement-induced non-linearity can overcome the challenge of creating entanglement and how loss can be tackled with well-known error correcting codes. |
| 2:15pm - 2:45pm | Robert Raussendorf, University of British Columbia A computationally universal phase of quantum matter | Abstract. We provide the first example of a symmetry protected quantum phase that has universal computational power. Throughout this phase, which lives in spatial dimension two, the ground state is a universal resource for measurement based quantum computation. |
