The complexity of quantum support vector machines

Quantum support vector machines employ quantum circuits to define the kernel function. It has been shown that this approach offers a provable exponential speedup compared to any known classical algorithm for certain data sets. The training of such models c ...

Geometric Learning: Leveraging differential geometry for learning and control

Bernardo Fichera

In this thesis, we concentrate on advancing high-level behavioral control policies for robotic systems within the framework of Dynamical Systems (DS). Throughout the course of this research, a unifying thread weaving through diverse fields emerges, and tha ...

Oxidative Defect Detection Within Free and Packed DNA Systems: A Quantum Mechanical/Molecular Mechanics (QM/ MM) Approach

Ursula Röthlisberger

Base excision repair enzymes (BERs) detect and repair oxidative DNA damage with efficacy despite the small size of the defects and their often only minor structural impact. A charge transfer (CT) model for rapid scanning of DNA stretches has been evoked to ...

Room-Temperature Quantum Optomechanics and Free-Electron Quantum Optics

Guanhao Huang

Quantum optics studies how photons interact with other forms of matter, the understanding of which was crucial for the development of quantum mechanics as a whole. Starting from the photoelectric effect, the quantum property of light has led to the develop ...

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 ...

Data-Driven Control Synthesis using Koopman Operator: A Robust Approach

Alireza Karimi, Mert Eyuboglu, Nathan Russell Powell

This paper proposes a data-driven control design method for nonlinear systems that builds upon the Koopman operator framework. In particular, the Koopman operator is used to lift the nonlinear dynamics to a higher-dimensional space where the so-called obse ...

Anomalous and Chern topological waves in hyperbolic networks

Romain Christophe Rémy Fleury, Haoye Qin, Aleksi Antoine Bossart, Zhechen Zhang

Hyperbolic lattices are a new type of synthetic materials based on regular tessellations in non-Euclidean spaces with constant negative curvature. While so far, there has been several theoretical investigations of hyperbolic topological media, experimental ...

Unbiasing time-dependent Variational Monte Carlo by projected quantum evolution

Giuseppe Carleo, Clemens Giuliani, Alessandro Sinibaldi, Filippo Vicentini

We analyze the accuracy and sample complexity of variational Monte Carlo approaches to simulate the dynamics of many-body quantum systems classically. By systematically studying the relevant stochastic estimators, we are able to: (i) prove that the most us ...

Emergence of Classical Magnetic Order from Anderson Towers: Quantum Darwinism in Action

Frédéric Mila

Environment is assumed to play a negative role in quantum mechanics, destroying the coherence in a quantum system and, thus, randomly changing its state. However, for a quantum system that is initially in a degenerate ground state, the situation could be d ...

The role of the pion in the lineshape of the X(3872)

Riccardo Rattazzi, Angelo Esposito, Alfredo Glioti

We determine the contribution of long-range pion interactions to the X(3872) dynamics, assuming it is a loosely bound D-0(D) over bar*(0) molecule. Our result is based on the distorted wave Born approximation in non-relativistic quantum mechanics. Despite ...

A recipe for cracking the quantum scaling limit with machine learned electron densities

Mario Geiger

A long-standing goal of science is to accurately simulate large molecular systems using quantum mechanics. The poor scaling of current quantum chemistry algorithms on classical computers, however, imposes an effective limit of about a few dozen atoms on tr ...

Security in the Presence of Quantum Adversaries

Khashayar Barooti

With the looming threat of large-scale quantum computers, a fair portion of recent cryptographic research has focused on examining cryptographic primitives from the perspective of a quantum adversary. Shor's 1994 result revealed that quantum computers can ...

Stochastic homogenization of degenerate integral functionals with linear growth

Matthias Ruf, Matthias Benjamin Ruf

We study the limit behaviour of sequences of non-convex, vectorial, random integral functionals, defined on W1,1, whose integrands are ergodic and satisfy degenerate linear growth conditions. The latter involve suitable random, scale-dependent weight-funct ...

Eight-vertex criticality in the interacting Kitaev chain

Frédéric Mila, Natalia Chepiga

We show that including pairing and repulsion into the description of one-dimensional spinless fermions, as in the domain wall theory of commensurate melting or the interacting Kitaev chain, leads, for strong enough repulsion, to a line of critical points i ...
