DESCRIPTION:This event has been canceled.\n      \n    \n    SPEAKER: Dr. N
 ella Ludlow\, 糖心原创TITLE: Error Correction Methods for Q
 uantum Information SystemsHOST: Dr. Xiangqian ZhouABSTRACT:聽In October 201
 9\, Google claimed breaking the 'Quantum Advantage' milestone solving a sp
 ecific problem in roughly 200 seconds that was estimated to take over 10\,
 000 years on the world's largest supercomputer at the time\, Oak Ridge Nat
 ional Lab's Summit supercomputer. Quantum algorithms give reasonable hope 
 to tackle some NP-class problems\, which could help find new medicines\, c
 reate new chemical compounds\, discover new battery technology\, create so
 lutions to world climate issues\, and model complex behavior from subatomi
 c physics to meteorology. Quantum algorithms\, such as Shor's algorithm\, 
 also provide a method to break current encryption methods\, causing a worl
 dwide push to change encryption to Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) for ban
 king\, military and others. In 2024\, NIST will publish a Federal Informat
 ion Processing Standard (FIPS) for the PQC algorithms. This talk will brie
 fly cover quantum representation\, Bloch Sphere\, Quantum Gates\, use of U
 nitary Matrices for quantum logic\, use of matrix multiplication and tenso
 rs for calculating quantum states on classical computers\, and Shor's and 
 Grover's Quantum Algorithms to make the talk accessible to those not famil
 iar with quantum information systems. Current quantum computers are highly
  susceptible to noise and disturbances\, causing qubits to be error prone 
 due to energy relaxation and decoherence. This means that current quantum 
 computers are operating in an environment known as 'Noisy Intermediate-Sca
 lable Quantum' or NISQ era. To transition to a more-useful fault-tolerant 
 environment\, researchers must nd ecient Quantum Error Correction methods.
  This is not an easy task as quantum states cannot be measured or copied w
 ithout collapsing the state via the No-Cloning Theorem. Quantum Error Corr
 ection (QEC) is arguably the most important aspect to building tractable q
 uantum information systems.The presentation will look at previous motivati
 on and methods of QEC to include: Use of classical coding theory\, quantum
  entanglement for repetition coding\, Shor's 9-bit codes\, Calderbank-Stea
 ne-Shor 7-bit codes\, Caldebank-Raines-Sloane and Gottesman 5-bit codes\, 
 Quantum Fault Tolerance\, and Magic States. The speaker will propose other
  ideas of QEC to include: Low- Density Parity Check (LDPC) Codes\, Topolog
 ical Codes\, Parallel Approaches using Imperfect Cloning.SPEAKER BIO:聽Nell
