Nikolas Breuckmann from UCL discusses his recent research. Together with his collaborator Vivien Londe from Institut national de recherche en sciences et technologies du numérique (inria) they have detailed how to make quantum computers robust against noise using the geometry of hyperbolic 4-manifolds.

Video for the paper by Schaal and colleagues published on Nature Electronics last June 2019. In the paper the authors prove how to integrate a classical control circuit with quantum dot devices; they demonstrate dynamic radio-frequency readout and show routes to a fully integrated readout architecture.

This talk describes an efficient quantum algorithm for the Moebius function from the natural numbers to {-1,0,1} and discusses the algorithmic techniques used in this algorithm. While the Moebius function was previously known to be in BQP, here they present an algorithm that does not rely on factorization via Shor's algorithm as an intermediate step.

Spontaneous magnetic order is expected to occur in graphene in two different situations: at the zigzag edges at zero applied field and in the Quantum Hall regime, at half filling. This talk discusses theory and experiments that would conclusively confirm room temperature edge ferromagnetism in graphene
