QuEPP: Quantum‑Enhanced Pauli Propagation Boosts Error Mitigation

Another highlight from last week, Swarnadeep Majumdar presenting work on QuEPP (Quantum Enhanced Pauli Propagation), our new take on the classical-quantum combination for error mitigation: https://t.co/v7o45niZV8 https://t.co/gb52BzVOUS

Quantum Processor Yields 2.44 Å Distance via ZNE

Sharing a snapshot from my second talk at #APSSummit26 — this one on NMR OTOCs and Pauli‑path approaches to zero‑noise extrapolation (ZNE) to learn an inter-atomic distance of 2.44 +- 0.04 angstroms on a Google's Willow quantum processor. https://t.co/350lCfheQM

Quantikz: Essential Tool Elevating Quantum Circuit Visualization

Helpful tools lift the entire field. I’ve relied heavily on Quantikz by Alastair Kay to draw hundreds of quantum circuit diagrams over the years. It’s been my go-to for clean, publication-quality circuits in papers and lectures.

Hardware Upgrades Reshape Logical Error Scaling in Quantum Correction

One subtle aspect of quantum error correction, which personally intrigues me, is how hardware improvements can influence logical error scaling.

Understanding What Logical Qubit Count Really Means

One of the trickiest numbers in quantum computing is “logical qubit count.” We often hear phrases such as “This algorithm requires 1,000 logical qubits,” but what is this number actually telling us?

Beyond Surface Code: Exploring Exotic Quantum Error‑Correction Zoo

I like to picture the space of error correction codes as a zoo with many exhibits. Many people are familiar with the surface code, it’s certainly the workhorse of our field. But there exist exotic codes that protect quantum information...

Intuitive Quantum Error Correction: Watrous & Qiskit Series

One of my favorite video series on quantum error correction comes from John Watrous and IBM Qiskit. This series does an excellent job of building intuition for how we protect fragile quantum information, beyond simply presenting the formalism.
