Abstract: Coherent errors in a quantum system can, in principle, build up much more rapidly than incoherent errors, accumulating as the square of the number of qubits in the system rather than linearly. I will characterize the types of channels that can exhibit such behavior and present a simple pr

Universal quantum computers are potentially an ideal setting for simulating emergent quantum many-body phenomena that are out of reach for classical computers. Here we discuss two applications to the study of topologically ordered systems: First, we represent the ground states of Hamiltonians using

Starting with the development of microscopes which enabled
the discovery of bacteria time and again, physicists have discovered and
then harnessed natural phenomena and the proceeded to use them to
open new windows of observation into the life sciences. Examples include

Making local measurements on an entangled quantum many-body state is expected to reduce quantum entanglement. However, recently it was found that in the thermodynamic limit it is possible to robustly protect quantum entanglement from continuous local measurements.

Cold atoms and ions provide one of the best ways to build controllable quantum many-body systems as quantum computers and quantum simulators. Here we report on recent developments in programming quantum simulators with focus on hybrid classical-quantum scenarios.
