講演概要
Quantum computing promises transformative advances in cryptography, quantum chemistry, and optimization. Simulating open quantum systems remains one of the main bottlenecks in achieving and optimizing these quantum devices [1]. Conventional methods, however, quickly become prohibitively expensive when strong drives and dissipation are involved — precisely the regime in which quantum computing takes place. In this talk, I’ll present a low-rank method that captures the full quantum dynamics at a fraction of the computational cost. I’ll show how this approach is particularly well-suited to the task of optimal control for quantum computing, outperforming traditional approximations such as the rotating-wave approximation. Finally, I will consider the timely example of reading out a superconducting transmon qubit through a resonator and a Purcell filter, complete with a drive-pulse optimization of the readout fidelity consistent with the state-of-the-art [2].
