Quantum Reed-Muller Codes and Magic State Distillation in All Prime Dimensions
Speaker(s): Dan Browne
Abstract: Joint work with Earl Campbell (FU-Berlin) and Hussain Anwar (UCL)   Magic state distillation is a key component of some high-threshold schemes for fault-tolerant quantum computation [1], [2]. Proposed by Bravyi and Kitaev [3] (and implicitly by Knill [4]), and improved by Reichardt [4], Mag... read more

Computation from correlations - in classical, quantum and generalised theories
Speaker(s): Dan Browne
Abstract: Operational theories [1], defined in terms of the actions and observations of an experimenter, have been extremely successful as foils to quantum mechanics, providing a generic framework in which families of theories may be compared and classified. One area of particular interest has been in the non... read more

Is there a classical analogue of measurement-based quantum computation?
Speaker(s): Dan Browne
Abstract: Measurement-based quantum computation is unusual among quantum computational models in that it does not have an obvious classical analogue. In this talk, I shall describe some new results which shed some new light on this. In the one-way model [1], computation proceeds by adaptive single-qubit measu... read more
