Congratulations to our MSPQC student, Henry Lin, for his team winning the BlueQubit’s challenge at the YQuantum hackathon event!
YQuantum is a hackathon organized by Yale every year. BlueQubit hosted their global challenge both remotely and in person at Yale. The challenge was about finding the hidden bitstring in a peaked circuit, an idea introduced by Scott Aaronson to show quantum advantage. In a peaked circuit, there is only one hidden computational basis state, or bitstring, that has a significantly higher amplitude than all other bitstrings. Given 6 peaked circuits, their task was to figure out the 6 hidden bitstrings. Circuits 4 to 6 were constructed in a way that was difficult to solve by a classical or a current quantum computer due to the large Hilbert space, depth of the circuit, and the number of operations. All teams present at YQuantum were able to figure out 3 out of the 6 hidden strings. Henry’s team gave the best presentation and the best possible solutions to solve circuits 4 to 6.

Quantum Teleportation was first achieved in the 1990s, demonstrating that information could be teleported from one location to another, granted the two locations are entangled, Johannes Rydberg Professor of Physics and Wisconsin Quantum Institute Director Mark Saffman said. The limiting factor of this discovery was the information transfer required specialized fibers, Saffman said. Recent achievements...

Wisconsin Summer School for Quantum Science – Application is now open!
Application is now open for the 2025 Wisconsin Summer School for Quantum Science!
This summer school will take place on May 28-30 and aims to promote quantum science (quantum materials, quantum information, and quantum sensing) to senior undergraduate students and junior graduate students interested in pursuing a PhD in this research area.
Advancing quantum systems through Q-NEXT’s Materials and Integration thrust
By linking researchers across the breadth of Q-NEXT research, M&I team members work on the processing, understanding and integration of qubits and quantum devices. This work brings closer to reality the future vision of truly hybrid quantum information systems that have an impact and performance superior to anything that could be achieved in isolation.
