Prof. Dr. Reinhard Werner, Faculty of Mathematics and Physics, has been awarded the Oskar-Klein medal. The Oskar-Klein memorial Lecture and the associated Oskar-Klein medal is a Swedish prize in theoretical physics awarded jointly by Stockholm University and the Nobel Committee of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
Congratulations, Reinhard!
With its Starting Grants, the European Research Council supports excellent and visionary research by outstanding young scientists with up to €1.5 million each. The Starting Grants cover a funding period of five years. The aim is to support scientific independence by helping researchers establish their own research groups.
Seminar Quantum Information in the seminar room 020 (building 3702)
Given a density matrix representing a bipartite system, deciding whether it can be expressed as a decomposition of the tensor product of the states representing the two subsystems is considered an NP-hard problem. This talk introduces two different machine learning approaches - and their limitations - devised to serve as numerical approximation tools for this classification problem.
Thierry Kaldenbach together with his team MajoranatzQ consisting of Marc Maußner, Cristian Ilie, Filip-Ioan Ceară, and Oneka Singh, won the Qiskit Hackathon at World of Quantum 2025! Thierry works at the DLR Institute of Materials Research and is PhD student in the research group of Prof. Raußendorf. In just 24 hours, the team MajoranatzQ developed an efficient method for optimising fermion-to-qubit mappings, which can significantly simplify quantum circuits for simulating fermionic systems. A total of 14 teams competed in the event, which was organised by IBM Quantum, Messe München, and the German Federal Ministry of Education and Research.
Quantum Information is whatever can be transmitted by using systems obeying Quantum Theory as carriers. The basic questions of this theory are taken from classical information theory: how much “quantum information” is carried by any given system or transmission channel, how much is stored in a storage device, how can such information be coded and decoded efficiently etc.
