Algorithmiq

 🎉 A Groundbreaking Achievement in Quantum Simulation: Exploring Many-Body Quantum Chaos on a quantum computer 🎉 In collaboration with IBM and Trinity College Dublin, we have successfully demonstrated the power of Algorithmiq’s Tensor-Network Error Mitigation, revealing its full potential for state-of-the-art scientific exploration. An incredible milestone made possible by the dedication and hard work of all teams involved, as well as the power of #algorithmiq's technology. ☄️ In our study, “Dynamical Simulations of Many-Body Quantum Chaos on a Quantum Computer", we used advanced error mitigation and noise-learning methods to achieve accurate simulations of maximally chaotic circuits, even beyond exact verification by perturbing away from the dual unitary point, on an IBM Quantum’s Eagle device using 91 qubits and over 4000 entangling gates—a major step forward. Our findings emphasize that error-mitigated #quantum simulations are now reliable tools for probing novel emergent quantum many-body phases on today’s quantum hardware. 🚀 Here’s to pushing the boundaries of quantum discovery! 🌌  #QuantumComputing #QuantumSimulation #ErrorMitigation #IBMQuantum Thanks to the authors E.

Last June, the United Nations proclaimed 2025 as the International Year of Quantum Science and Technology, a year-long global initiative to increase public awareness of the importance of quantum science and applications. Since 2020, Algorithmiq, together with our own QPlayLearn, has been sharing theoretical knowledge and technical findings in #quantumcomputing both with the scientific community and the world at large. 🔎 However, there is one thing that makes Algorithmiq pretty rare among #quantum startups. At the Q2B24 summit in Paris, our COO Kirsten Nehr reminded the public that few quantum startups are women-led, and that more could be done to close the funding gap.💡 Starting from this observation, Damien Black tackles the topic of #WomenInQuantum in his article for Disruption Banking and asks if 2025 will also be the year of women in quantum computing. 👩🚀 In fact, our CEO Sabrina Maniscalco is among the signatories of the Women for Quantum -- Manifesto of Values, joining over 30 female scientists asking for a better model of scientific leadership, funding, and authority that includes them as well. 🦾 Read the Manifesto at https://lnkd.in/dpkP2HZ7: together, we can find the way for #IYQ2025 to also succeed in building a more inclusive quantum ecosystem. 🌍

It all started over a hundred years ago… We are talking about #quantum physics and the time when some of the world's greatest scientists discovered something unexpected while analysing matter at the microscopic level. ⚛️ While investigating these phenomena, it became clear that some of what was being observed did not behave in the same way as we have learned to expect from Newtonian physics. In fact, what was just starting was a whole new way of looking at the world, maybe even one of the most radical paradigm shifts in the history of human thought. Quantum Physics asks us to think beyond what we know or assume about how reality operates, and it’s this cognitive dissonance that can lead to confusion or even hostility. 🤔 “What we need is imagination. But imagination is a terrible straitjacket. We have to find a new view of the world that has to agree with everything that’s known, but disagree in its predictions, some way. Otherwise, it’s not interesting. And in that disagreement, agree with nature.” This is what Richard Feynman said in his speech “Seeking new laws”. This means that while looking at quantum phenomena, we cannot expect familiarity based on our day-to-day observations. At the same time, it’s important to remember that quantum physics is not a purposefully obscure and abstruse theory but rather a surprisingly simple theoretical framework that can describe and predict perplexing physical observations. 💡 If you want to get a glimpse, our own QPlayLearn has a whole entry dedicated to Quantum Physics, including a fun video game that you can play straight away 👉 🕹️: https://lnkd.in/dKENQDp4. The game was designed by Dr. Aditya Anupam, Professor Nassim Parvin (University of Washington), and Professor Azad Naeemi (Georgia Tech). Put your knowledge to the test and kickstart your imagination!

Have you ever felt that your best ideas come when you are far away from your computer? Maybe during a hike, or while contemplating the sea, or working with your hands on something that requires your full attention? This approach has always been at the centre of #Algorithmiq’s ethos. For example, our CEO Sabrina Maniscalco is famous in the #quantum research field for organizing Quantum Hiking conferences, where scientists discuss new ideas while exploring mountains and local food. ⛰️ It was only a matter of time, then, before the whole global team at Algorithmiq would put these ideas into practice by travelling to Sicily for our quarterly hackathon week. During our hackathons, we get to meet colleagues from all over the world, share victories and learnings, and this time it has been an absolute privilege to do so in one of the most beautiful regions in the world. 🇮🇹 Sicily is also where Sabrina comes from, a small town where she would look up to the night sky as a child. By immersing ourselves in a totally new environment, we have been able to jump into big ideas together and find new solutions over a cup of coffee and delicious cannoli. 🍰 We don’t know where we will travel next time, but we will surely keep our intellect and imagination alight to continue tackling some of the biggest challenges in #quantumcomputing. And we will never stop looking up to the stars. 🌌

Ready to tackle another one of the myths surrounding the capabilities and limitations of near-term #quantumcomputing? In our recently published paper “Myths around quantum computation before full fault tolerance: What no-go theorems rule out and what they don’t”, we looked at the assumption that solving practical problems requires much larger circuits than is feasible on quantum hardware without error correction capabilities. ❌ The key question is whether small circuits are useful in practice. Superconducting qubit devices can run 1,000–5,000 circuit layers per second, allowing 1–10 million samples within a reasonable time for circuit depths of 100–1,000. However, on pre-fault-tolerant systems, physical error rates limit circuit size. For instance, 100-qubit circuits with depths over 100,000 would need error rates below 10⁻⁶, which is not in the roadmap of any current hardware provider. 🤖 Our prediction is that it will still be possible to perform quantum dynamics and many-body experiments with a practical advantage in the near term by minimizing circuit sizes and using optimal error mitigation strategies. However, innovations in reducing circuit complexities for such applications play a crucial role in making this possible. 🤔 In short, pre-fault-tolerant circuit sizes may enable useful quantum applications. However, practical quantum advantage has not yet been demonstrated. ✅ Read the article to analyse the results more in depth 👉: https://lnkd.in/dxBgV7g4 and stay tuned for the next mythbusting instalment! 💫

Can quantum computers solve the biggest challenges in health? 🏥 This is the question at the center of Marianne Guenot’s article in Nature Medicine, which explores the possibilities of #quantum computing for life sciences and healthcare. But what are some of these potential #HCLS applications? Currently, some of the projects developed through the partnership between Cleveland Clinic and IBM include the use of quantum simulations to improve the current models of biochemical reactions and the injection of better quantum simulations into algorithms that predict T cell receptor–target combinations for cancer cell therapy. 🧪 Algorithmiq is also contributing to the research effort: as part of the Quantum for Bio challenge initiated by Wellcome Leap, we are collaborating with Cleveland Clinic in studying how quantum computing can enhance the design of photodynamic cancer drugs, and we expect the first results to be published in October. 🔬 This type of cancer drugs requires complex #quantumchemistry calculations and this is an arena in which quantum computers could outperform classical computers. 🤖 While we haven’t yet reached the era of fault-tolerant quantum computers, cutting-edge research in the field of quantum algorithms and applications is continuously advancing, and we share Lara Jehi, MD, MHCDS's belief that “there is a strategic, long-term advantage in being the group that was first.” 🥇 Read the article here 👉 https://lnkd.in/gpxFqAQ5
