Quantum Protocols for ML, Physics, and Finance

Grzegorz Adam Gluch

In this thesis, we give new protocols that offer a quantum advantage for problems in ML, Physics, and Finance. Quantum mechanics gives predictions that are inconsistent with local realism. The experiment proving this fact (Bell, 1964) gives a quantum proto ...

Emergence of highly coherent two-level systems in a noisy and dense quantum network

Sandrine Gerber, Gabriel Aeppli

Quantum sensors and qubits are usually two-level systems (TLS), the quantum analogues of classical bits assuming binary values 0 or 1. They are useful to the extent to which superpositions of 0 and 1 persist despite a noisy environment. The standard prescr ...

Quantum Error Correction and Simulation in Open Bosonic Systems

David Schlegel

Quantum computers have the potential to surpass conventional computing, but they are hindered by noise which induces errors that ultimately lead to the loss of quantum information. This necessitates the development of quantum error correction strategies fo ...

Stability of the Faber-Krahn inequality for the short-time Fourier transform

Joao Pedro Gonçalves Ramos

We prove a sharp quantitative version of the Faber–Krahn inequality for the short-time Fourier transform (STFT). To do so, we consider a deficit which measures by how much the STFT of a function fails to be optimally concentrated on an arbitrary set of pos ...
