Escaping barren plateaus using entanglement skipping layered ansatz

Thanks to their resilience to noise and wide range of possible applications, Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQA) are among the most useful resources for near-term quantum computing.

Non-Markovian Collapse Models: Analysis of the Free Particle Dynamics

In this talk I will present a non-Markovian generalisation of free particle dynamics of a quantum particle under the QMUPL model of wavefunction collapse.

Micius Satellite and Satellite-to-Ground quantum communication

The Quantum Experiments at Space Scale (QUESS) is a satellite research project aiming to perform proof-of-concept demonstrations of long-distance quantum communication using a satellite named Micius.

Quantum theory in real or quaternionic Hilbert spaces: how the complex Hilbert space structure emerges from Poincaré symmetry

In principle, the lattice of elementary propositions of a generic quantum system admits a representation in real, complex or quaternionic Hilbert spaces as established by Solèr’s theorem (1995) closin
