Marek Gluza<p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/qibo" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>qibo</span></a> I&#39;m a fan.</p><p>On Thursday I talked to Stefano Carazza who is pushing forward the vision to have a <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FOSS</span></a> full stack <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/quantumComputing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>quantumComputing</span></a> package. </p><p>The package is called Qibo and it&#39;s freely available. As in free software.</p><p>We talked about about how at a certain stage adoption will become relevant, for now releasing <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/QiboCal" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>QiboCal</span></a> and <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/QiboLab" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>QiboLab</span></a> is the focus.</p><p>I say relevant, because it&#39;s not going to be an issue, a challange at most. Why, there&#39;s a ton of new setups emerging and experimentalists prefer to run everything from a single jupyter notebook and have control over what is happening in their lab rather than be restricted. </p><p>A researcher is not building abinitio a <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/quantumDevice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>quantumDevice</span></a> to be limited by <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/IP" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>IP</span></a> or some nonsense that our societal system tends to generate. </p><p>Qualitatively new ideas are continuously surfacing and to seamlessly make academic progress we need <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/FOSS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>FOSS</span></a> and integrate our efforts. Private interests should not limit what researchers are doing; vide our flawed publication system.</p><p>We need 2 things: <br />- theorists publishing their protocols with code integrated into Qibo as e.g. a calibration, optimization or circuit routine.<br />- experimentalists setting up Qibo drivers.<br />Qibo is a bridge between theory and experiments that is going to stand on the FOSS principle. A principle that will allow us to make more progress than without it.</p><p><a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/superconducting" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>superconducting</span></a> qubits, <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/RydbergAtoms" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>RydbergAtoms</span></a>, <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/trappedIons" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>trappedIons</span></a>, <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/integratedPhotonics" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>integratedPhotonics</span></a> have similar requirements and Qibo is going to make them buzz 😊😄</p><p>If that sounds similar to what you think is already doing that then no. The FOSS feature needs to be present otherwise you&#39;re making a managerial design error that will show up down the line.</p><p><a href="https://github.com/qiboteam/qibo" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">github.com/qiboteam/qibo</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
Marek Gluza<p>On Tuesday at <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/IQOQI" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>IQOQI</span></a> Tobias Olsacher explained to me how to verify <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/HamiltonianSimulation" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>HamiltonianSimulation</span></a>. The paper <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.15846" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">arxiv.org/abs/2203.15846</span><span class="invisible"></span></a> is full of tricks and ideas, going towards a tutorial reviewing what you can do if you have access to decent measurements and enough coherence to make the characterization of a <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/QuantumDevice" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>QuantumDevice</span></a> challenging.</p><p>The Hamiltonian learning involving an energy constraint is extremely <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/neat" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>neat</span></a> 💯 as an idea but apparently is sensitive to non-unitarity. A generalization is possible to do without an exact energy constraint and learn a parametrized Liouvillian but haih do we always need to need so many measurements? <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/quantum" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>quantum</span></a> 🥲</p>
