The argument against quantum computers
Gil Kalai - Hebrew University of Jerusalem
A quantum computer is a new type of computer based on quantum physics. When it comes to certain computational objectives, the computational ability of quantum computers is much stronger than that of the familiar digital computers, and their construction will enable us to factor large integers and to… -
First-Passage Processes in Physics and Beyond
Sidney Redner - Santa Fe Institute
A fundamental aspect of a random walk is determining when it reaches a specified threshold position for the first time. This first-passage time, and more generally, the distribution of first passage times underlies many non-equilibrium phenomena, such as the triggering of integrate and fire neurons… -
Learning in the quantum universe
Hsin-Yuan Huang - California Institute of Technology (Caltech)
I will present recent progress in building a rigorous theory to understand how scientists, machines, and future quantum computers could learn models of our quantum universe. The talk will begin with an experimentally feasible procedure for converting a quantum many-body system into a succinct… -
Introducing Perimeter's Strategic EDI Plan
Robert Myers - Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics , Ana Sofia Barrows
Over the last decade, there have been many Perimeter efforts in the realm of EDI, and they have unquestionably enhanced the Institute’s culture. Paradoxically, some of these efforts have illuminated areas where we can do more, and there are still others to be addressed. In Perimeter’s short life, we… -
Holographic scattering from quantum error-correction
Beni Yoshida - Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
We revisit the problem of how interactions emerge in quantum gravity. Namely, we show that bulk scattering of multiple particles in the AdS space requires multipartite entanglement on the boundary. This statement can be proven by two totally different methods, 1) general relativity and 2) quantum… -
On the Electron Pairing Mechanism of Copper-Oxide High Temperature Superconductivity
Seamus Davis - Cornell University
The elementary CuO 2 plane sustaining cuprate high temperature superconductivity occurs typically at the base of a periodic array of edge-sharing CuO 5 pyramids. Virtual transitions of electrons between adjacent planar Cu and O atoms, occurring at a rate t/ℏ and across the charge-transfer energy gap… -
Discrete Holography
Johanna Erdmenger - University of Würzburg
The AdS/CFT correspondence (Anti-de Sitter gravity/ conformal field theory correspondence), also referred to as holography, provides the first example of a duality relating a gravity theory to a quantum field theory without gravity. The gravity theory involved describes the hyperbolic bulk spacetime… -
The night sky is part of the land: the ongoing colonization in astronomy research and space exploration.
Hilding Neilson - Memorial University of Newfoundland
It has been argued astronomy and astrophysics as a research field developed with the first telescope. At the same time that Galileo observed the phases of Venus and the moons of Jupiter, European Powers will colonizing the Americas and other parts of the world. This began a relationship between… -
Photonic Quantum Science and Technologies
Urbasi Sinha - Raman Research Institute
Quantum mechanics is a cornerstone of modern physics. Just as the 19th century was called the Machine Age and the 20th century the Information Age, the 21st century promises to go down in history as the Quantum Age. Quantum Computing promises unprecedented speed in solving certain classes of… -
The Piezoaxionic Effect
Asimina Arvanitaki - Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
Mirror symmetry and time-invariance violating processes were crucial at establishing the Standard Model of fundamental interactions as we know it, their tiny effects eventually measured after enormous experimental effort. Macroscopic material on the other hand can maximally break these symmetries… -
Quantum steampunk: Quantum information meets thermodynamics
Nicole Yunger Halpern - National Institute of Standards and Technology
Thermodynamics has shed light on engines, efficiency, and time’s arrow since the Industrial Revolution. But the steam engines that powered the Industrial Revolution were large and classical. Much of today’s technology and experiments are small-scale, quantum, far from equilibrium, and processing… -
Intellectual Property Colloquium: How Scientists and Innovators can Utilize the Patent System
Michael Henry , Paul Smith - Perimeter Institute for Theoretical Physics
The patent system is designed to help innovators protect their intellectual property. In this colloquium, we will discuss logistical and strategic aspects of the patent process, to help you better understand how to leverage the patent system. Topics will include the anatomy of a patent, deadlines…
